I was in a team where this just worked, and I've missed it ever since. I had another team essentially bully me out (by withholding information and not inviting me to meetings with the justification that "I didn't want that&qu

Little known (possibly unintended) feature, but you can put the `toplevel` attribute of a nixosSystem into docker image `contents`, which lets you use NixOS modules to set things up. Just be sure to import the minimal preset, because those

Why do Americans always read backroom politics into everything. How does the GDPR help EU tech companies? I hope you're not about to tell me it's a ploy to bundle up resources for compliance in US companies or it levels the ground

usually all translations of eu law are canonical. all officially translated versions of the EUPL are too.

Everyone knows that? I'd say that's a misunderstanding of the motivations behind EU law. If you think this is the result of lobbying work or protectionism, let me ask a simple question: Why does the GDPR exist?

At this point I'm wondering what happens if the EU invokes their malicious compliance clause, and tells Apple outright what to do. Will they just refuse and hope they don't lose the EU market? I think one point lost in most of the

Sure, if you want to be pedantic about it. Though this is pretty normal for EU law to give a lot of preparation time. The GDPR had 2 entire years - and I still got some emergency compliance tickets in the week before (worked at the eCommerc

Thankfully EU legislation has very severe penalties built-in that are mostly deterrants (think the 4% turnover maximum GDPR fine), but if anyone deserves to be hit with the full force of the law, it's Apple. Even Meta, who are also hap

Last action, they terminated Epic one day before the DMA went into effect (today). It's clearly meant to stall the creation of Epic's own App Store. All the processes still require an Apple developer account. This is malicious eno

US law does not apply in the EU, and having subsidiaries in the EU is common and almost required for GDPR compliance.

Regardless of the validity of your comment: How is this relevant? Is it because Spotify is Swedish? I assure you, this is not EU protectionism, this is EU consumer protection and anti-monopoly behavior - something US regulators seem to have

I deny doing this. I provided actual counterexamples of how there is complexity in this topic in the post above.

I've done responsible disclosure myself. But I wouldn't dunk on a vendor for not telling me they released a fix on the same day because I'd probably just assume it's internal communication issues. And then attribute th

This feels like two useless extremes. Enough information to give an idea of severity / class of vulnerability with the patch itself and the writeup a week later when everyone has had a chance to patch and those skilled hackers Rapid7 c

thought about making the first product myself yesterday, and concluded short of poisoning all images passed through with nightshade, it's just not feasible. turns out it's trying to plug holes in a ship made of swiss cheese.

Oh, c'mon, you weren't this specific. And I was. A 240mm rad is large by normal standards. Sure, a 360mm one is larger, but also usually not needed and you are likely to run into clearance issues.

pea-sized is against noctua's own recommendation for AM5. they recommend dots in each corner and a bigger one in the center. [1] also, Kryonaut is one of several high-performance thermal pastes that outperform NT-H1 and even NT-H2, b

Because OP uses a (mid-sized, but large by most standards) AIO with two Noctua redux PF-12 1700 PWM's. So... your recommendation is the article.

Not exactly the optimal Noctua fan, considering it's a high RPM redux.

by _cenw 3y ago
Didn't pick the right fans for going extra slow. These run at 1700 RPM by default, whereas Noctua has a version - even in the redux line - that runs at 1200 RPM. Though the non-redux like gets even slower - so much that Noctua includes

Food containers are tricky. Huel ready-to-drink seems to be 49%, because they need the inner coating to be virgin plastic.

the demand for non-virgin plastic is practically zero, while the cost is higher there are no economic incentives to use recycled plastic, and regulation mandating its use is minimal to non-existing. so most plastic that could be recycled is
