Do not underestimate the chances of a video of your new kittens getting shared amongst tens of people. Or the impact that those uploads would have on your dodgy 3G connection. It makes sense to host stuff you want to share on sort of server

I take screenshots of errors and bugs to share on slack or in Jira, but I wouldn’t say I do it daily (unless GitHub is having a bad week).

What’s your real question? - Why did the inventors of Wi-Fi decide to use unlicensed spectrum? - Why, now that Wi-Fi has become widespread, has that spectrum not become regulated? - Why are microwave ovens, specifically, not required to hav

People think apps are free of charge, because they think they didn’t pay extra for the apps that came with their phone or their laptop. IG / FB / Gmail / etc apps are free of charge. Also their bank’s / energy supplier’s

I set up ssh access to use a private key stored in 1Password the other day. When I touch the fingerprint sensor to allow it, it will sometimes switch me to a different window. That’s irritating. Other than that, no problems.
