Has the automation scripting improved recently? Last time I looked into this there was an uninvuative (for a newbie) config file that required a server restart to see changes. Not exactly the easiest way to learn as it was a very slow feedb

Maybe the minesweepers decided it was a good idea to switch radio frequencies, so that they could chat.

This “L.A. Affairs” series that the latimes is doing is great. I’ve read a few of them despite it not even being in the ballpark of my normal content consumption. Most are well written, engaging, and are a nice change of pace.

I think you misunderstood. Much of the US is within the blast radius of the volcano. Food production doesn’t matter if you’re under 100ft of magma. People with in the blast radius will be escaping to somewhere .

There’s legal recourse when it happens in the US or Europe. Not so much in China.

But people who know about that will disable it in settings, and the majority of the world will go on using WiFi fully oblivious. Before the command center existed people weren’t saying having a WiFi toggle hidden in the settings app is a se

If you can say, “the next 450 characters are plain text and should be rendered as such”, then even if the text includes script tags (or whatever), they won’t be parsed or executed.

But do you really need a dedicated key for that? Might as well just get rid of insert.

In the case of “ridesharing”, how is it making the world a worse place? It’s not clear that this market is winner take all. Rides are very cheap for consumers on Uber or Lyft. The experience is MUCH better than cabs in every city except may

Apple sells their old models as the low-their versions of their phone. I highly doubt they are intentionally limiting these device that they sell.

That’s clearly not what this article is about. But on the subject that you’re talking about, it would be great if the US started phasing out fossil fuel subsidies.

Actually I think it would add 2 democratic and 2 republican seats. The proposed “Southern California” has large amount of conservative voters and I think the GOP would be able to scrape out wins there. Both OC and SD are relatively conserva

No need to call out “ATM Machine” or “LAN Network”. Repeating the last letter of an acronym in full is common in the English language because it provides clarity, flow, and disambiguation.

Governments have broken up large companies in the past, and that works out pretty well. Why suggest nationalization over that? The article only mentions “huge economies of scale”, but doesn’t do a good job convincing me that there isn’t roo

When you understand that it’s based on checks, it makes perfect sense. Not that checks are a good system, but if the alternative is a check then it’s the same downside.

A lot of people in the US (even ones with jobs) are unbanked so wouldn’t have even an ATM card.

I get at least one call a week now. Always from the same area code, often one a few digits off from my number. I wonder how long it will take for the goverment to start enforcing the do not call registry laws. What’s the threshold of annoya

It makes sense to hide the truth. Deceiving the enemy is a very important tactic of war.

BCH _feels_ like a stock split. Where it's not like a stock split is that literally anybody can create a new blockchain just like BCH and give everyone who owns BTC a coin on this new blockchain. In that regard, it _feels_ more like a

I think it's reasonable to take it back, but it's unreasonable how they are doing it. They should give him a year and help him transfer to a new account (copy emails over, etc). 30 days isn't much time to find every site you&

This one sounds pretty genuine. With something of this nature you'd be stupid not to have PR people help out, but it does sound genuine. It sounds like he's stepping back and taking a very hard look at his actions and behavior. Ho

Snacks, food, alcohol, etc. IIRC, inflight entertainment is free. Scheduled meal costs extra at time of ticket purchase. Much better to bring your own food, or buy their decent snacks as you get hungry.
