As near as I can tell, people complaining about being "cancelled" are being punished for violating the TOS of the social media platforms they are on. If you are spouting heresies in a respectful good-faith debate, the worst that g

You have to use the advanced search to find those folks now. When I am looking for good deals on used stuff, I focus on lots of items, sorted by most recently listed. Always buy-it-now.

The problem exists in some form all over Amazon. Try searching for a free public domain kindle ebook. You will have to scroll through pages of paid "special editions" which the "authors" have made no real changes to bef

The problem is we have to keep updating that code when the rules change. Servers which miss that patch break because of various Auth schemes which require clocks to be reasonably in sync between machines. So you get a bunch of outages whene

Not just discoverable. Have enough modules available they can start making stuff they want to actually use. Help them find opportunities to solve problems that matter to them using code. Your average kid would much prefer to write a Twitte

What I like about platforms like this is the possibilities they open up for major players to experiment with weird form factors again. Basically the cost of software development, mostly. I loved some of the insane designs prior to manufact

Post processing or just lowering the resolution? Filming a deepfake with a DV cam pointed at your screen is very convincing. Sadly.

Work. I work mostly on the Microsoft stack, and I haven't broken the habit of Windows powershell to move to Powershell Core yet. When I got upgraded to Win11 I first switched up the UI to look like Win10. I made a copy of System32 so

The Peppa Pig thing is legit. When I studied Japanese, watching kid shows was really helpful for ear training with a more simplistic vocabulary. My preferred weird kid's show for that was Anpanman. Hahihuhehooooo~!

The flip side of this is when software intentionally does not implement adherence to the rules in play. As an example, in what I call the "License Compliance Shakedown", the DRM software used does not prevent usage outside the lic

Samsung Odyssey+. My main gripe was I could not find good virtual desktop software which was compatible with WMR which could get out of its own way.

It is wider spread than just Appalachia. Uticah, IL I am aware has for decades had a yearly burgoo festival, and that is a long way out. I think it probably has just become small town Americana at this point.

Price is too rich for my blood, but I will be watching with interest how it goes. I have tried working in VR a few times with my WMR headset and never found a setup which was effective. This looks pretty good! I would love to give it a tr

Sometimes you can get away with discharging the battery, doing your wet work, and then drying very thoroughly before applying power again.

Offerup, while filled with dark patterns, is something I recently discovered. And it is just as viable, available lots of areas and seemingly less filled with scammers. (By no means empty though)

This. Having seen how quickly MySpace became irrelevant, I am certain FB is acutely aware of how tenuous the position is as the king of social media. It is no wonder they behave like they do to capture and keep users.

People are driven by a desire for mastery, or the enjoyment of their colleagues and/or customers, or the actual impact of the work. The fact that most businesses aren't saving the world, they are just making money is why so many p

Wow. I think my big take-away is to never post disclosures about a company, on that company's platform. No, I'm not being sarcastic either. I am sure some Company-Man type was the one who stumbled across it and implemented the b

If I am not mistaken "The Great Reset" is written by Glenn Beck. I may be wrong, as there are several books with that name, but the Beck book is the one most likely to involve railing against Nazis and Communists. You can get a s

Indeed. We have seen killers this past 10 years walk because of bad laws. I will not name any in specifics because that may start an internet slap fight.
