It would be interesting if you could combine the two ideas. Physically secure the laptop to the table, but also lock / shut down / wipe the drive in the event that someone cuts through the wire.

It's -51.1̅°C, for anyone wondering.

An alternative explanation is that Google was paid off to facilitate state-sponsored attacks. I wouldn't go as far as to claim that as fact, but it's nevertheless egregiously bad that Google suddenly wants a mandatory backdoor int

Interesting given that this just came up here recently: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29399590 Does anyone have any additional insight into how big a deal mass produced synthetic cartilage would be, and specific exam

It was, but unless something has changed in the last few months it's 1) prescription-only, and 2) not actually available for sale anywhere even if you have a prescription.

Thank you. There's a big difference between "it's your fault you were murdered because you were unarmed" and "carrying a gun would be one potential mitigation for the future", which I think is too often lost

It's a "bioactive glass" (AKA "bioglass"), like the NovaMin toothpaste that Sensodyne used to sell in the US. Specifically: https://biomin.co.uk/products/biominr-f-toothpaste The award winning

It won't exactly regrow teeth, but I swear by BioMin for enamel repair/protection. It's completely treated the sensitivity I'd had in a few teeth, and my teeth as a whole just generally feel stronger since I started usin

You could do that, but it would be pretty inconvenient in general, and more so when using quotes within the script. There would also be no autocomplete.

Agreed. I liked fish last time I tried it (probably over a decade ago), but bash scripting is what I'm familiar with and it's just so convenient in day-to-day usage to be able to throw out one-liners for mundane things and then ha

Sounds like GP just needs to ingest some anti-lithium.

ARM is the architecture and Arm (as of 2017) is the company. It's unclear why the article goes back and forth on this.

Rather than contact lenses, how plausible would it be to project an image into someone's eyes from a distance? As in you'd have an external VR unit that's as bulky as needed to handle face tracking, photonic override, etc. wi

It could be that they have contemporary documentation on the values of various objects and materials. What's the inflation-adjusted conversion rate between 2021 USD and the 79 Roman denarius?

Why do you say that? Not agreeing or disagreeing, just curious what the fossil fuel industry might have to gain from pushing adoption of nuclear power.

I had an ICL procedure as well, about seven years ago. I can't say I had anywhere near OP's level of anxiety about it beforehand, but I was concerned about potential pain/discomfort and my ability to keep my eyes still enough

TIL the term "wet-bulb temperature": https://www.iflscience.com/environment/why-is-everybody-talk... tl;dr: It's essentially just a humidity-adjusted temperature, like wind chill factor for hot weather.

I like the idea of globally phasing out fossil fuels for synthetic fuels made from carbon capture (possibly with biomass components if required). Gas cars might be less efficient than electric, as expected of any kind of shim or polyfill, b

From another point of view, looking at the government as an institution rather than through its role as an advocate of the people, you could also make the case that the government should oppose any massive consolidation of wealth/power

I was noticing the same thing. Got confused at the comments talking about Congress and thought maybe I'd missed something.

What if we substantially raised salaries — let's say to $100m/yr for the president, and lower but proportional amounts for all other major officials at the federal level — while on the other hand treating corruption-related crimes

Is it rightful to chastise them either way? It'd be one thing if there were a leaked internal memo saying to exclude a particular race, but this could just as easily be the result of a marketing intern arbitrarily selecting stock photo

Interesting. I can't speak to the Pro, but my M1 MBA camera didn't* seem any different from the one in my 2013 MBP. If this camera is actually better than the C920, that's pretty cool. Does anyone know how an iPad Pro camera

It sounds like they're saying the OS will automatically add a black bar to the top in fullscreen mode, which will look seamless thanks to the contrast rate of mini LED. If that is the case, it sounds like a pretty elegant solution and

To be clear, I'm explicitly not commenting on market penetration of either solution, but rather their inherent capabilities. I don't see USB-to-HDMI cables or adapters as particularly cumbersome, whereas there isn't a way to

That's part of the problem, but it's also convenient to have a storage card that you can easily move between machines as needed.
