You only have to look at LinkedIn to see the levels people go to when commenting on women's posts. Even those where these women post nothing but business - and if their posts have a photo, there's an even better chance these comme

A "mysterious" metal that happened to be used in the making of the same aeroplane DB Cooper was flying on? Why does it sound like there is nothing to see here?

Disappointed. The robot t is not "making coffee". It is feeding a capsule to a machine and pressing a button. I expected the robot would be grinding beans, filling the coffee holder, tamping, fitting the holder to a steam machine

The amount of crazy conspiracy theorists and politics on LinkedIn is growing very quickly. It's competing for the large share of cringe posts with selfies.

I am not sure how it is there but here in NZ most places charge more for Uber Eats and Dash deliveries because margins are lower as these services charge both the customers and businesses. I rather pay more knowing it goes to an employee sa

In my opinion, the mental exercise these people go through to rationalise their support for nazis is telling.

Yes, very likely. The website owner might not even realise if they use more than one IP address, which are then presented in a round-robin way to clients, so errors loading the pages aren't easily spotted. If you find out the hostname

"The only downside to this method is if there are multiple reads from the same IP address but on separate devices, it will still only be seen as one read. And I'm okay with that since it constitutes such a minor fragment of traffi

Yep. From the page (capitals are original): "THIS KIT IS NOT A COMPLETE HOUSE. YOU ARE BUYING A DOME FRAMING KIT Only! THIS ITEM IS NOT IN STOCK AND REQUIRES A 6 MONTHS LEAD TIME."

Just setup passkeys on my Amazon account. 1. Asking for OTP after using a passkey is redundant and annoying 2. Not listing the keys individually makes management hard - I can't remove a single Yubikey, or Windows Hello or my phone. If

I think the "TrainMyAI" tells a lot about how the data might be used. Their Data Policy (1) says nothing about how they use data you enter. Only says you can enter as much or as little and who can see th data you share. Big nope.

Yep. I've seen plenty of cryptoscam posts with "Elon is giving away crypto!" and a screenshot that they pretend comes from Elon's X account. Looking at the Reddit account they can be ten years old but with no activity at

I had a similar experience, 20 years ago. I was one of the first publishers to be accepted into Google AdSense in my country. I run a forum and had my blog on the same domain. Initially Google used to send US cheques, in USD. So I had to go

Most interesting is how life is so different from fiction. I mean, the premise for The Night Agent (Netflix) was a dedicated line monitored 24/7 just to help agents. In real life, a downed pilot needs to call 911 and go through all the

Yet, I run a forum with a subscription option to remove ads. About 35% of our traffic blocks ads but we only have a hundred or so subscribers out of 150,000 unique visitors a month with a 40% return visitor rate. People use lots of argument

A personal anecdote. I run a (locally) popular online forum and many years ago I was approached by a company that bought a single-word domain name directly related to their core business. Our agreement was that I would use their API to load

"... always having to be within X minutes of a device." Back when I was in a technical role I used to be rostered on-call every few weeks. That included being on a conference call within five minutes of being paged (yep, oldstyle)

That's not the case. He is saying things against the Army but still saying Putin was misguided by Army information. It's more like he's trying to save Putin's by saying "the war was not his [Putin's] fault.

You can if there is a provision for that. As mentioned before it doesn't look like Taiscale allows you to either have more than one passkey or reset the passkey.
174.
by freitasm 3y ago
Tailscale only allows one passkey it seems.
175.
by freitasm 3y ago
Except the Tailscale implementation doesn't allow you to add more passkeys to an account. There is no "one account multiple keys" here.

I have 872 according to BitWarden: https://cdn.geekzone.co.nz/imagessubs/3c01663b43a16e0b50577a... I don't use OAuth, except for two services - which I could switch to user/pass if I really wanted.

This is not accurate ay all. A problem with ISPs blocking IP addresses is not a Cloudflare problem.

"should improve quality on average" Based on replies to that tweet I think this is hard to achieve.
