Wow, that's a lot of work when you could just ssh in from Blink or Termius and launch neovim, like someone sane would do. What is the actual use-case of this?

I'm not making a claim that FAAANG is any better. I'm just saying that when FVEY wants your data and you've opted for convenience over security, you WILL be owned. It's not so much that Proton is untrustworthy, it's

Most places with high solar insolation values also tend to come with high cooling costs. Arizona and Southern Nevada are perfect for this application, but my first approximate guess is that HVAC would eat all of, if not more than, the benef

One of the problems is that storage inefficiency is already built-in to most new PV installations. Well over half of new installations are based on grid-phase-sync microinverters. Adding storage to the system involves adding rectification a

Exactly. If he's allowed to be free, but banned from leaving the country, FVEY SIGINT can throw their entire bag of tricks against his comms while working remotely. Maybe they can recover keys, infrastructure details, etc. Dude is goin

If you're spending $15k on a box, you can also spend $1200 for a small insulated shed kit and $800 for a small mini-split heat pump. I live in a much warmer summer climate than Texas and this solution works fine for me for my small net

The world has gone mad with status-seeking behavior. It's not even about the money, it's about "what will they think?" A Harvard/Stanford/MIT education used to be about the rigor, the education, the knowledge,

How so? Personal choices go a long way, here. Exclusively use glass and metal cookware, utensils, food containers, and straws. Don't paint your fingernails, or if you do, don't chew your nails. Don't eat fast food, takeout, o

It's also useful to note that skin cancer is very easy to catch early. Melanoma is definitely not something you want to have if you catch it late, but early detection is cheap (equipment required: eyes and a mirror) and easy. Treatment

Skin tone is modifiable, within some limits. If you maintain a base tan (equivalent to 2 hours in the sun or 10 minutes in a "standard" tanning bed, per week), the melanin is highly photoprotective for any additional UV exposure.

Is it doctors, or is it medical administrations reluctant to deal with "selling" your insurance provider on covering you for a service? At least in the US, I've found that if you're paying cash up-front, you can shop aro

Be careful with this, or at least scaring/stressing yourself with this. Fresh (bright red) blood in stool is 95% of the time hemorrhoids. Most colon cancers will present with old (very dark red, or black) blood in stool.

The craziest conclusion I've seen longevity experts narrow in on is the mTOR == cancer hypothesis. And the logic leaps are astounding: 1. Rapamycin inhibits expression of mTOR. (verified) 2. Rapamycin extends lifespan of cancer-encoded
