By that logic, an open wifi router would be considered air gapped, n’est pas?

This is essentially vast.ai, no?

I mean, I’m just saying the danger exists (which is what “real” means to me) and people should be aware of it. Not that people shouldn’t dig big holes. I thought that was clear in my original comment but evidently not.

Oh duh! Pardon my ignorance; that makes perfect sense, I guess my mind was elsewhere

“Of course”. Thanks for responding — can you clarify this interest benefit you are talking about?

I’m in the same age bracket and hole-digging enthusiasm bracket as you but recently became aware of the dangers of this whimsical pastime! [1] That’s not to dissuade you or anyone else from doing it (I have continued!), but I think everyone

Let’s just take 95% as a true figure … first of all the 5% you don’t get back is a straight up loss. The rewards you get at the end of the month are fine (eg cash back) but you’ve missed out on earning interest on the money you “get back”

What do you mean by this? I’ve been getting great mileage out of copilot, especially since learning about the @workspace keyword. Could you quantify your criticism a bit more? (genuinely asking)

Do people really watch movies on xreals? I tried the Air Pro 2 and found them borderline unusable. Also, AR glasses being used by someone operating a motor vehicle sounds like a recipe for an entirely different kind of “killer” app.

I wonder if it’s crossover from typing http, ftp, etc. I know the practice has fallen to the wayside in consumer computing but I’d buy that most people have more muscle memory for typing _tp than _pt in a semi-standalone context

They can shop at alternatives (if they exist in the specific town in Quebec), for now. It's not really hyperbole, I think. The basic right is at the very least being threatened, if not explicitly violated (yet).

I believe iOS 15 includes a little-touted feature: "Voice Isolation" mode; I haven't tested it comprehensively, but other similar technology (e.g. RNNoise [1]) has very impressive results in the scenarios you allude to. [1]

Chip-and-PIN has been prevalent outside the US since its inception, and is still the norm for large credit card purchases.

I throw it on the charger for 30 minutes while I work in the evening. Works great, and as others have noted, that’s usually enough to get through 2 nights. It charges pretty quickly; quickly enough in my experience that even if I forget to

I don't know, I thought Vulfpeck's "Sleepify" hit the nail on the head without bringing any "real" content.

Correct me if I'm wrong but does not Firefox supply full-text search on your history, bookmarks, and open tabs when you type stuff in the address bar? I believe Chrome does the same?

FWIW there are third-party software options for the Touch Bar such as MTMR (my touch bar, my rules), which at least allows you to activate the haptic feedback in the trackpad when touch bar buttons are pressed. I found that it helped dramat

My sauna is my absolute favorite place to think through anything complex or difficult. Careful not to burn yourself if you take a whiteboard in there!

Not today— it doesn’t seem like a terrible stretch to imagine that it could in a decade or two though.

I think you've already gotten lots of feedback on pricing -- One thing I didn't see mentioned is that your website lacks a pricing page. Yes, you indicate the subscription price, and you hide a little note that says you can try it

I believe the upcoming version of Safari will have WebExtension support, so at least there's that.

This is mentioned on literally every Starlink thread I read, and the response is always that unlike previous satellite internet offerings, Starlink operates in low earth orbit, drastically reducing the ping time. Do you have more to add?

Can you support this with a counter example? This statement by itself is a bit of a tease!

I just got a black box on my Windows system. Looks pretty good in Firefox on the Mac though: https://imgur.com/a/rqPgQFZ Edit: Here it is in video form https://imgur.com/a/B0UOigX

I gave it a cursory look from the perspective of someone on the lookout for remote opportunities to replace my non-remote grind. At a glance, I like what I see, but there are a couple of things that stuck out to me: - The search seems prett

I made a similar decision to the GP -- it is not just that the octopus is intelligent (pigs are smart too, but I'm less perturbed by eating them). The octopus is such a vastly different creature to most/all other animals that we e

To add to what others have said re: AirBNB, there have also been at least a few cases where renters refuse to leave the property and turn a mid-term rental into a sort of "squatting" situation, creating tremendous legal hassle for

Your page says "text that need to be translated" but it would read more correctly as "text that needs to be translated". Just saying! Good luck.
