On the other hand the data would be much more reliable in that scenario. A 10 GB consumer hard drive is likely to fail or at least corrupt some data at some point, and if you’re going to go with multiple redundancies then your cost goes up.

I can easily install the latest version of windows 10 on even a 10 year old computer. But more importantly, I can still install Windows 7 on a 10-year-old computer if I want to. And it will still work, and most programs will still run on it

Hundreds of engineers and can’t build a website. Something is wrong here...

Maybe, but in this case they had advertising in the app which Google is claiming may have been fraudulent, and it seems everything ballooned out from there. There’s no indication that this has anything to do with advertising on their websit

I wonder how this works in practice? My main use for an AirTag would be to put on my cat’s collar. But if it starts beeping randomly that’s going to be a problem.

Exactly! It’s crazy to me that more than 6 years into this USB-C journey, you still can’t buy a USB-C hub for under $100. Back in the day USB 2.0 hubs were under $50 within a couple years, and then practically free (literal giveaway swag)

I mean they could send it to collections. I’m not saying it’s likely they would, but I’ve had it happen to me before in a similar situation with a different company‘s subscription that tried to charge me a cancellation fee I didn’t original

Interestingly, for my current role at Salesforce as part of the employment contract it explicitly states I’m not allowed to work on anything else on the side unless I get explicit permission from their legal department. Including nonprofits

Thanks. I'm just getting a "Please open Telegram to view this post from @freedomf0x" message. Any way to access this without signing up for Telegram? The irony of giving my personal info to another 3rd party just to check

I recently had lasik and went through a period of a few weeks where I couldn’t read small text on screens. It’s absolutely infuriating that you can’t just increase the text size on most websites. Most websites when you increase the text siz

So what’s the limit for the number of tokens and backup frequency without the subscription? Sad to see this as a subscription, seems easy to justify paying $5 one time but not $12 every year.

I thought you were mocking them but nope, this the actual opening paragraph of a corporate announcement post. Do they not have enough money for editors or technical writers anymore?

It’s not hard to find a T-shirt I can wear over and over again without having to keep paying for it. Nowadays it’s nearly impossible to find software that lets you pay once at a reasonable price. So yeah, it is very frustrating to fight off

You really need to get the wired ones if you want decent performance, in my experience. Having that power extension cable is a pain, but the battery powered ones barely do anything by comparison

Even more exciting would be a power use comparison, including for the air conditioning and other auxiliary support needs. Exciting times we live in

I’m a bit worried every time I hear this. We are setting our expectations so high... doesn’t seem like it’s possible for the M2 to be as much of a leap over the M1 as the M1 was over the status quo. The M2 might be amazing, but now that we

I used to work on the Okta team that made those libraries. We were a tiny team with not nearly enough people. As far as I could tell, Okta is a sales company. The salespeople got the fancy events, the high floors with nice views, all the bu

That’s exactly why I used to love Fry’s. Some kids went to malls, I guess. Fry’s was my mall.

When I go through my YouTube favorites playlist, about a third of them are now removed. I’ve been adding things to it for over a decade. If there’s something you might possibly want to watch again in the future, download it. Bit rot is a re

That actually sounds kind of wonderful. I’m sick of the technology treadmill.

Can you provide more details about this? That sounds intriguing, but I think I’m missing something to fully understand what you’re talking about

Facebook also had it long before Google+, called friend lists. The UI was not great but it was incredibly useful and I’m super frustrated they have been phasing it out over the years. There are some things I want my super liberal theater fr

Actually I run a live theater venue and the vast majority of our tickets are purchased through a combination of Facebook advertising and Facebook event pages. There’s no getting around that. I had deleted Facebook but needed to reinstate my

It’s a subscription, so you’re rebuying it every month/year whether you want the new features or not. I miss the days when you bought something and could use it forever, and only had to re-up if the next version was actually so much be

This appears to be specifically looking at cellular data, and cellular carrier’s tendency to throttle video services. It’s not a generic service to check generic ISP throttling. Perhaps updating the title might help. That being said, I have

Also on Windows you’ve got WinForms and MFC and I think another C++ UI framework as well. Microsoft has switched their preferred UI framework every five years or so, often leaving behind the old framework in the dust when it comes to new UI
