What's the newest Wifi standard? ax? Anyway: it's quite... something? My standard router runs four different networks on two different IDs and if I understand it correctly, the fasted frequencies are subject to occasional use by..

they already mentioned why it was awake: downloading updates. ...which it only does when connected to power so I'm honestly failing to understand what the problem may be. Anyway: Settings -> Software updates -> Advanced -> Dow

There's a possible difference here between "doing things that Twitter and its owner(s) will profit from" and "doing things as Musks wants them". If the two diverge, the first is the winning strategy, burning far few

Technically, i guess they could "have a little trouble acting so fast", buying everything at $0.9 and back up to $1, and pocket the difference, scolding people for their lack of faith. Practically? Yeah, it's goner.

"A system that allows us to transact directly, peer-to-peer" is "unstoppable that people will seek this, regardless of anything, even legality" It's a serious indictment of this generation that they talk about usele

$ 1.2 trillion, or 6 % of US GDP p. a., according to coinmarketcap.com I guess it was about 10 % at some point not too long ago?

The article is written as a response to claims that Bitcoin is an asset (class) different enough from stocks to be useful to diversify a portfolio. It's pointing out that, at a correlation of 0.86, it really isn't. The headline do

The "parts of it" in your question might be the clue to an answer: you start implementing some often-used code path only to realize that they share code with all the rarely used code paths (permissions/authentication come to

Yes, like it was yesterday (or today). It was a strange time where the term was often used for things that had nothing to do with the original meaning of the term.

The headline is editorializing beyond what’s supported by the article. That technology, SS7, wasn’t intended as a backdoor. It was about network management. As such, it may have been possible to gain access to it far easier than it would be

It's hard to get into a position where you get money for nothing. I'd gladly tell you exactly how to do it, but unfortunately I am just as lazy. Maybe try feudalism, though.

How often do you use straws? Maybe it's a cultural thing, but as far as I'm concerned, straws are for ages 1-10 and 75+.

I guess it's a bit of a curiosity. The charge of hypocrisy is to be expected, and not entirely wrong, although it suffers from the usual problem, namely that a doctor telling you that smoking is dangerous with a pack of Marlboros on hi

Does it often happen to you that you talk about Ai and, three minutes later, find yourself arguing with every search machine on the planet that it’s impossible that someone would say nasty things about your favorite fascist?

Since “everyone” would include governments and industry as well, their restriction is guaranteed to not contain more bad actors than no restriction.

Sure, but it would never do something actually bad, like raising the possibility that sexual harassment might, sometimes, be an issue, or questioning the value of phrenology.

You can't stop me from keeping the car I borrowed. Your bank can't physically force you to pay back a loan. I can probably outrun the staff at that restaurant. Does that mean the laws preventing such behaviour should be abolished,

Lots of people here seem to believe that scraping should be legal because it is possible. The flaw in that argument is that a law is never needed, by definition, to prevent things that can easily be avoided by technical means. The laws ag
