People who are liabilities are liabilities. It's sad when naive people don't recognize them and/or don't defend sensible personal boundaries against crazy/unreasonable intrusions.

Virtual-signaling, small-scale nonsense to claim they're "helping." CCS (and SRM) at scale (tens of trillion$, on the order of the pointless MIC cash-grabs in the Middle East) need to be expended to reduce CO2 to pre-industri

If you're a normal, genetic male, this is normal. If you're female, then this would not be normal. In fact, a palpable structure at the farthest edge of the outer rearmost point on the skull is a way to tell one's birth gende

Yes. I think they made a classic mistake of raising too much money, expanding too quickly and not staying hungry. VBS.TV and early VICE were good; at least before they moved their HQ, they were cratering. I'd like to see much more of s

Most people who live in SF are either insane aspirationally rich (spending all of their money, saving nothing) or actually rich. $25k USD/month rent for a 2BR/2.5BA is ridiculous https://sfbay.craigslist.org/sfc&#x

Former enterprise AWS consultant here. Renting and leasing tech (AWS, GCP, Azure) is $$$$. At scale, a little cloud is okay for limited uses, but going down to EBGP and floor-up is cheaper. If a shop can't handle that, rent actual hard

It's useful. I looked at it last night for a refresher. Also, look at other major distros. And, for building packages and patches, look at LFS, Free/Open/NetBSD ports, homebrew, macports, linuxbrew, habitat, NixOS, Debian, U

Still wondering about why 737 NGs (-600,-700,-800,-900) are still deemed "airworthy" despite the 2010 investigative report on Boeing's intentional deception and cover-up of Ducommun's absurdly dangerous and substandard c

The thing about ECC vs. non-ECC. If you don't have ECC, you don't know silent bit corruption is happening, and when it's finally (if it's ever) discovered, there's nothing that can be done. ECC (SECDED) keeps data s

I am currently in a mostly burned-out, warzone-looking Paradise (nearly all other houses around burned, and many tall trees have been resource-exploited removed without recompensing property owners) when PG&E cut the power at 9 pm last

All of said money should be spent on public transport. Spending on single-occupant personal transport, mostly SUVs, commuters act like a gas: it will expand to fill the container: more traffic, more commuters, and more climate change. It wo

Supposedly, there's progress in the Second Circuit to compel the DEA to deschedule all cannabinoids. Irrespective of the outcome of that, the handwriting is on the wall but it will take some time regardless.

Nice. About time. I think I've seen this feature in some filing cabinets. When I was a kid, I had a heavy metal dresser that was prone to being top-heavy and falling over with just any second drawer barely out of place (the drawers wer
