Why would me giving you 5 bucks a month assure you didn't also sell all of the data from the period tracker app? That's money you'd just be leaving on the table.

Fidelity seemed to sign you up for this when you called them on the phone almost automatically. Ridiculous since it was defeated easily in a hacker movie from the 1990s using a tape recorder.

Based on how things are, I feel like the US solution is just going to end up with me requiring a retinal scan to buy pants from Target online and then that scan will end up on the dark web along with my voice print and a scan of a my driver

As bitcoin is quite traceable I don't see how this works if you're trying to avoid sanctions. For Iran it probably doesn't matter but for the vessel owners it probably does.

If you're willing to check the used market it is more affordable as the spike isn't as severe as used DDR5.

Fighting off snaps would be reason enough to abandon them but Canonical has control of the snap store in a way that is antithesis to open source as they're trying to run a walled garden play. This is the exact type of crap that lit a f

I don't play those games myself but the word is that the EAC on linux lacks the same kernel hooks that are available on Windows. I personally consider that a plus but if you're a developer obsessed with strong anti-cheat you proba

What are you jamming here? The wireless connection? Wouldn't the recorded data just be cached on device until out of the jamming range?

Aren't they going out of business in large numbers? I'm not sure how much of that has to do with the dating scene as much as it has to do with younger people drinking less though.

Wouldn't virtualbox or vmware's paravirtual GPUs be a better fit for this use case? Unfortunately the offerings with qemu/libvirt still lag vmwares by a lot.

There are still VoIP services that function essentially the same. I switched to that recently because the real POTS service had been jacked up in price a crazy amount, probably because we were grandfathered into even having it since the com

Can you even attach a POTS or POTS like device to Google Voice anymore? I was looking into this last month and it seemed like they had removed that feature and the devices people were using (they had stopped selling them some years ago) to

Regarding minutes, how many minutes? My kids basically hog my VoIP "landline" talking to their cousins 50% of the time they're home. (They're actually playing games together and using the phone as voice chat). I've

Firefox already had a rebadged Mullvad VPN service. I thought about switching but I found it had way fewer payment options and the log policy did not look encouraging when I read it. Made it sound like not only did it keep some kind of conn

DDR4 looks to be around half the price of DDR5 on the used market to me. I wouldn't call that slightly less money unless you weren't planning to install much RAM.

It's wild to me they ever started doing this in the first place. And in 2013 no less, it isn't like the hijacking risk was some far off concept at that point.

IIRC with Windows 98 you could just use any product key you had on as many machines as you wanted since there was no activation or real phoning home capabilities. So most likely your whole friend group would be using the same serial that wa
