Pharmacies cannot and will not do that (except for insulin, for which it's now allowed in some states, and maybe a few other non-abusable things.) If it's a controlled substance -- which includes most things you'd be worried

The satellites will surely have a certain amount of beam steering capability. (You need beamforming for this to work at all, I think.) If you're too far from the border, you may not be able to trick the system into believing you'r

You can do it in Chrome on macos without the screen going black, if you disable hardware acceleration. I dunno how long that will last, though.

Do you have any writing I can read about your classification? This sounds extremely interesting and useful. (I have some related thoughts, but not 20 years' worth and largely not recorded.)

I keep meaning to write something about this, but: There are two kinds of "why". One is "I understand what you want but I think it's stupid so I'm going to argue with you." That one is insufferable. The other o

Name and shame sites that don't support using multiple Yubikeys! I'm pretty sure they're violating the guidelines in the standard if they do that.

The desired class-action status of this suit feels like a stretch to me. Typically, in a class action, the defendant's alleged behavior unquestionably harms the members of the class, which is why it's okay to make them party to th

Note that the BMC does not always restrict itself to the BMC port. I've worked with machines that have a dedicated BMC port, but also have a BIOS-configurable option (on by default) to let it use whatever port is connected.

Sounds like the flight attendant had an unusually severe case of "making shit up".

Disabling it doesn't really work right. It doesn't let you still see history from when you joined; it just lets you see whatever bits of history your client has cached, which resets anytime you restart the client (on desktop) or a

Can anyone translate the amount of NAC the mice got into human terms? Or how the amounts given to COPD patients or the like compares to what OTC supplements have?

I was a fulltimer there around the same time, and I agree. I ended up quitting fairly soon after the G+ real names fiasco blew up, and it felt like a lot of internal "social capital" got burned on that, which was never really reco

Their site says they will only ship to Austria, Germany, or Italy, and you have to promise you're a medical professional to even get to checkout (I don't know whether it's further enforced if you do have an address they ship

I also got this email yesterday from iTunes Connect, despite the fact that I do not have an account on that service and I don't sell books: https://9to5mac.com/2022/07/26/apple-book-sellers-tax-britis...

I think they must have sent a whole fuckton of these in error. I got it as well, it seems to be "legitimate" (in that I believe it is from Apple), but my account is not set up with iTunes Connect (and would have no reason to be, a

> Of course there is a superimposing step, that just means it adds its layer on top of the photo you provide. That's all it means and that's literally what it is doing, that's all I tried to say, heh. It is not doing this.

This kind of white-balance fuckery became very apparent last year, when the skies in the bay area turned orange and red from smoke. On many phone cameras, the photos were automatically color "corrected" to be completely wrong, wit

It's a bit weird -- beta blockers are not technically, from a doctor's perspective, anti-anxiety meds. They suppress the _physical_ symptoms of anxiety, such as increased heart rate. For many people, that seems to have a big impac

Binary logging would be fine if it Just Worked, but my experience is that journald/journalctl does not just work, and when it breaks I don't have logs. For example, if the system clock is not monotonic, my text logs are still writ

Note that not every journald/journalctl is created equal. It's easy to end up with logs written on one computer that journalctl on another computer can't read, even if the latter is a newer version, depending on which setting

For an app you haven't used in awhile, you'd probably uninstall it. For an app you're actively using, you'd probably accept the update, but there would likely be pressure on the devs from the percent of people who would

Good catch, it sure reads like an editing error for "not likely", meaning the opposite of what it says.

FYI, 30mg IR (immediate release) of Adderall is an absurdly high dose. If it was all-day it's merely a very high dose, much too high to start on.

My sense has been that the things we need to know are mostly pretty clear. There are things we don't know, but it seems that Andrew Lee is the _reason_ (or a reason) that we don't know many of those things. - Who controlled nickse
