Never underestimate how women's fashion will make clothing out of the thinnest and flimsiest garbage they can find. I wouldn't be surprised if a good bit of the problem is that women's clothing doesn't do much to insulat

Many people don't realize that any argument they can think of against a given medication has been gone over a thousand times by thousands of medical professionals. The truth is, they just don't trust the medical system as a whole.

It is 100% this. The system is broken and everyone knows it. But people are convinced that the solution to the problem is somehow worse.

You just make a tool that plugs into the wiring harness which does it for you. Then Jiffy Lube can sell it to all the Jiffy Lube franchises for $400. (It's really just a small 12 volt lithium battery and a switch lol.)

I have found that, if you are competent, the role will quickly expand to fill your ability to accomplish it. Edit: Probably regardless of competency to be honest.

Beware of intuitive conclusions. (AKA: Truthiness) It's easy to believe something because it sounds true but still be completely wrong. https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/truthiness

I'm always happy to see pigeons around. They are a lot rarer these days. I remember, before West Nile came around, they would blanket an area. People would have to wash their cars every other day because they would poop on the roofs. E

That's not how these inertial navigation units work. They measure the acceleration of the device in six axes. Forward/back, up/down, left/right, yaw, pitch, and roll. Then they integrate these accelerations to determine

I agree, one hundred percent. Capture of the government by corporate interests has neutralized the ability of the FTC to do their job and stop problems like this. Companies have gotten so large that if they catch a cold, the entire world co

A nautical mile is 1852 meters 1 degree of latitude is 60 nautical miles 1 millionth of a degree is 0.1 meters So they lose about 2.4 meters of accuracy per day or about 0.9km per year. Which is pretty good for nautical navigation purposes.

Mod developers were able to get the source code for Minecraft through a developer program over a decade ago. I'm not sure that it is still the case. I think they are just de-obfuscating the compiled CLASS files so anyone can decompile

Most secure enclaves use a fingerprint scanner to authenticate the request for data key or private certificate decryption. For instance, on the MacBook you will get a message prompting for fingerprint. On a Windows laptop without a fingerpr

Yeah, you can implement a software based method using PBKDF2 or BCrypt. This is why most password managers use a "Master Password." They are much less convenient than hardware based keys like Yubikey and HSMs/Secure Enclave.

A secure enclave should allow no one to access the data inside. It's essentially a little self contained computer that can do some basic crypto operations using the stored keys. It should never disclose the keys.

Until SSH servers implement PKIX based Host Key verification, it's always going to be fraught with issues like this. Users will just keep blindly accepting host keys because they "Don't got time for that."

Traffic violence has become so normalized that you don't even see it anymore. Twice as many people are killed by traffic accidents than are murdered per capita. Your ad hominem attacks do not invalidate the piles of evidence. https:&#
