Judging by the variety of answers on this thread alone, I'm going to assume that if random internet commenters all know that a place is the most secure, secret place to do something illegal, it probably isn't really.

Wait, so an m4b stores playback position in the file itself? As in, the checksum will change and file syncers like Syncthing will re-upload every time I hit pause?

Hey, can you send me a link to that Nox port? What a blast from the past - I remember saving up to buy that game as a kid :)

It works on the neural networks inside people's skulls. The point is a passport control officer would wave either of two distinct people through based on the same photo.

Guys, the usual "but BitTorrent can be used for so many legitimate purposes!" fig leaf argument doesn't work here. Sonarr isn't for downloading Linux ISOs. The only thing it does is schedule downloads of TV shows as so

Sorry, what's the reference?

I have a sneaking suspicion that part of the reason for the sudden radio-silence after his on-campus interview is that someone up the chain realized he is also the creator of Sonarr and just nobody wanted to take ownership of that potential

What does that mean?

It's also just a generic term for a guidepost at the beginning of a journey – which is a perfect symbol for the product. I don't think there's any risk of confusion with a vendor-specific training portal.

But that in itself is a tell.

Legitimately don't understand your comment – how is enforcement "a joke", but then you immediately give an example of enforcement being strict and effective?

Huh? Who, Lenovo or AMD? They both have fine Linux support.

Why do you think it's for TV coverage? It seems plausible to me it's just better-suited for the medium (of a remote call). If you listen to the in-person oral arguments, there's a ton of interruption and pre-emption all the t

Yeah, it's still in progress (but seems to be getting closer every month)

Exactly.

I think you're way off base. I feel like the remaining gap, in comparison to the progress it represents, is more like dotting i's and crossing t's at this point.

Holy crap. > From dust we came with humble start; > From dirt to lipid to cell to heart. That's not just a passable lyric. I think it's downright _good_.

This is great, I've wanted to write one myself for a while - but does anyone know if I can plug in my years of ZNC logs? Or does it require the specific log format its own logger produces (which basically means it can never be backward

Canadian here - even my condo building elevator announces floor numbers with a (pretty well-digitized) voice. And believe me, my building is no marvel of modernity.

But why this unusual level of scrutiny? The book is published and endorsed by both Google and O'Reilly, two of the most respected brands in this domain. Why are they not a satisfactory "third or first-party confirmation of experti

He's referring to upload, not download, since that is the relevant metric when talking about using a webcam.

Are authors technically allowed to do that? (Not _should_ they be allowed, but _are_ they)? If so, where does the line get drawn? Are they allowed to have an auto-responder that responds to any specially-formatted email with a copy of the r

Alright, you caught me. I didn't properly scale my language, foolishly assuming it was obvious from context. I'm "deeply worried" about it the same way someone might be "deeply worried" that the series finale o

Why would that be sketchy? I'm sure there's lots of bad things in there, but hand-optimizing common third-party code paths doesn't seem like it should be one of them. Would there be some sort of uproar if people found out tha

You are still ignoring what multiple people have tried to explain to you. "Mate in X" is not a show of bravado about how quickly a grandmaster things he can beat _you_ specifically. It's a mathematical property about a positi
