Yes, to a certain extent--along with age comes wisdom and experience, which is likely what contributes to the lack of appeal tiktok has to older people. My parents did not understand why I got a tattoo when I was in high school; lucky for m

I'm assuming you mean the US, right? I was doing legal research on this, and funny enough there is an article that discusses this very issue: http://mttlr.org/2016/11/no-mans-skynet-copyright-in-procedu...

Reminds me of programming in physics formulas in a Ti-83. Turns out, the act of programming the formula made it easy for me to recall it without cheating.

Ah, I see how my comment was misleading--it really meant to highlight that at times I do appreciate LTT's entertainment aspect, not that I expected there to be a technical review of the steamdeck.

This happens in my home state. We have High Occupancy Vehicle lanes, which require at least 2 people (some roads-3). The maximum fine was recently raised to $536, but the final amount is still up to the State Patrol who writes the citation,

LTT's commentary makes it difficult to trust they are objective (even if they are). I loved seeing how giddy Linus got while testing Valve's Steamdeck, but when it comes to actual benchmarks and testing, I would appreciate if they

Would you mind pointing me to a doc about regenerating policies based on usage? The pain I'm dealing with is having to look at the event logs to determine which CF task failed due to permission, then add that to the CF policy.

I recall when Apple made device UUID's unique to a specific app install, rather than a device. Entirely speculation on my part--I assumed that someone would eventually figure out a way to approximate a uuid at the device level, and use

Not to minimize or trivialize these numbers, but it puts what we're going through in perspective. In 2008-2022 estimated 288,000 Iraqi's died, due to war. 2020-2022 estimated 926,029 American's died, due to covid-19. I wonder
