The Iranian regime doesn't care what "age" their people are living in and have been stockpiling weapons for enough decades to follow through on their threats. And every time I read "we have destroyed 3000% of Iran's

Exactly. 39 days (so far) of bombing will only convince Iran and other countries around the world of why they need to obtain nuclear weapons at any cost . It is existential. This current US administration is incredibly shortsighted.

Americans need a government issued digital signing token to prove their identity digitally. There are a lot of services demanding ID verification these days and use a 3rd party to process driver's licenses and faces. It's super in

It's not . Support is about on par with Google for SMBs. I had a client get locked out of the admin panel for about 2 weeks before getting through with support. The difference is that everyone's account kept working during that t

Recently I cleaned up a SMB client's Workspace users after archiving their data (former employee accounts that had been languishing). In the space of a day or two I did the following for half the ~20 total accounts: - Moved to no 2

Ah, good. We're currently reliant on unpaid, probably-not-too-happy workers for fire safety. Sounds like a great time to stay off an airplane in the USA.

It's effective against the rest of the combustible material in the hold so ideally the fire remains contained to the battery.

They did spur engineering effort to develop ICEs such that regular passenger cars in the USA could do better than 10 mpg. It was something at least. Now we have a lot of people who choose to drive far less efficient behemoths than the m

In that case, I'll make mine echo a random number of characters pee key stroke. The feedback is nice but then there are no worries about someone observing password length.

Who would mine the creamy bit from a wheel of brie and leave the hard rind behind?!?!

"Nuts" is the correct expression to indicate that you are not a German spy as it is a very perplexing Americanism. Go to Germany and try using "Nüsse" as an interjection! See also: Bastogne.

It's not the natural evolution of a regional dialect coming to prominence but rather the conscious consensus of a geographically distributed social stratum. Interestingly, the sociolinguistic literature shows that such a consensus is s

A mere 2x productivity improvement sounds like something you could achieve by introducing new tools that are predictable (i.e.: Not AI).

On tiling WMs I use rxvt-unicode with no window decorations, no gaps, 1 px border, no scrollbar. Then tmux does the rest, namely tabs and splits. Automatic session saving has been a life saver on more than one occasion.

I have been successfully using the GNOME desktop environment for years on Guix System which uses Shepherd as its init. KDE is an option too. Other, more traditional distros are out there that work fine with GNOME, etc with no problems.

I think the loudest way you can protest is to use and support distros that do not have systemd. There are lots to choose from in 2026.

There were a bunch of 90s BBS games that worked like this. All the players had so many "turns" (maybe better described as "action points") which they could use for different activities in a given game. They reset each da

While that is indeed sad, you owe it to yourself to install Firefox (Android?) with uBlock Origin. With that setup, I'm not seeing any of that junk.

They sold off Google Domains to Squarespace a year or so ago which was irritating because it was super nice to grant DNS record access using employees' Workspace accounts.

We've exceeded that by months on multiple occasions and fully expected them to cut us off after reading similar dire warnings but they never have. That said, we keep data usage rather low because we're on the metered plan.

You're right about the age of the term but it's nothing to do with combat, but rather just a nice sounding umbrella term that makes talking about joint forces easier because every military service has their own special name for th

This. I know some people who work for the former and they are always having to say "no, I don't work for that Motorola". The shared name is entirely historic.

This might be preferable to the ever expanding tangled dependency graph and associated supply chain risk. OTOH, perhaps said graph can be reasonably wrangled with LLMs and enable safe small library re-use?

No, the Department of War is the former name of the Department of the Army and nothing else. DoD is a new creation that includes the Army, historic Department of the Navy, and the other, post-WW2, new services. "Changing it back&quot
