But I don't understand why destruction is required for the write off. An IoT juice squeezer is a physical item that costs something to make every additional unit. Every unit you make can actively lose you more money. Compare to a film.

Second this. The focus on security from GrapheneOS is a breath of fresh air compared to the (historically) questionable conventions in most of the third-party Android distribution ecosystem. As an example, Graphene even recommends not usi

Ultimately, it's just one more point of negotiation. In a market where labor is scarce, clocking out at <= 40 hours might be no problem, because you're not readily replaced. But when the balance shifts and your skills are in le

According to a tweet, this thing is actually using LLaMA II[0]. I guess he probably caches results so it doesn't recompute each time, but as you go further you start finding combinations that are apparently novel and take quite a while

I just don't know if it'll ever happen, at least not until there are truly massive advances in miniaturization and display tech. I have much lower spec'd VR goggles and they mostly gather dust. There's just something abo

IMO you're exactly right. I just looked at the shell script and it's not "random" at all, it's getting both the checksum and the ISO from the official source over TLS. The only way this technique is going to fail is

I honestly wasn't aware of this, and it sounds like a great solution for "adult content." Certainly, the site specifying this is better than the user agent having to reveal any additional details about its configuration.

Yes, this isn't the right solution. The power needs to be given to the users. A better solution is more robust device management, with control given to the device owner (read: the parent). The missing legislative piece is mandating tha

I'd stop short of claiming it works "great," but it is indeed usable and I'd second this recommendation if you're forced to use Teams. The "app" is just electron anyway.

It's surely a great use case for the semantic web on paper, but I'm not sure that site owners have much incentive to make it easier for the bot owners to extract and resell their content.

This is really a great tool. You can also link against librclone if you need to use it as part of a larger application or do something more complex with it than scripting.
