If you want the TV to be on your network (for casting or streaming or whatever) and you also want to filter that traffic (allowing connections only to the services you want to use) then you need it to be on your own network (wifi, if there&

It wouldn't even need to use any sort of standards-based DNS-like thing at all, if they control the server (on a stable IP address in the TV's firmware) and the client (the TV). It could be any data scheme (probably https for simp

I assume eliminating the "loss leader" concept is the main effect, since shops shouldn't otherwise price things as losses regardless? In which case it seems like it's meant to maintain some friction / overhead for p

The restaurant-next-door analogy, representing fungibility, isn't quite right. If BofA is closed and you want to do something in person with them, you can't go to an unrelated bank. If Spotify goes down for an hour, you're no

It's just peculiar especially since the repo readme [0] specifically says "Minimal JavaScript - Only when truly needed" and yet it's used for this food category filtering, a feature for which JS is certainly not truly ne

In many analog pro audio applications, it's actually recommended that a shield be connected at one side only, for this reason. By convention but not necessarily necessity, the bond is typically kept at the receiving end, as that's

No, the comment correctly points out that the "Soup" button (and all of its siblings... the food categories) is inoperable when JavaScript is disabled. You're stuck with "All" instead of nice filtering. There are wa

I agree with no JS, but why PDF over HTML? Hard-wrapping for letter-sized paper (ok, a PDF doesn't need to be letter-sized, but most menus are approximately that) with crapshoot reflow options for soft-wrapping in certain viewer apps i

I'm fine with an implied "and," but I disagree that "violations" is scoped only to the final item in the series. It's clearly transitive to each item in the series (security violations, etc.). That said, your p

Aside: I'm well aware that it's just about as popular to use an Oxford comma than to not, but this might be the first time I've ever seen someone omit an Oxford semicolon as it really seems odd to me. But Automatic Semicolon

It's interesting how much different the landscape was in that era: single-device residential environments would have no firewall at all (just a PC with a publicly-routable IP address) and dial-up kind of fueled this due to PCI slot mod

If only the users contributing chord charts to sites like Ultimate Guitar understood this; the number of times I've seen this wrong is astounding. For example, a progression like I-iii-IV in the key of E major will be written as E-Abmi

Yes, but I'm accepting of this result, with no inclination to work around it, if this is actually considered good by the rule maker. If the rule maker would say "this instance is a poor outcome, but here are examples of the more-t

I agree with that completely. I'm just struggling to agree that what we see in this case is an edge case to be manually adjusted back, due to my inability to think of examples that we wouldn't see as having the exact same "wr

Are we sure it did the wrong thing? If a rule was put in to remove an initial "How" then presumably TFA is a fine exemplar; I can't imagine such a rule having some majority of outcomes be somehow better than this one. If this

I'm not a fan of extreme compression and limiting, but doing so in a multiband fashion (as occurs due the loudness war) actually does result in more consistent EQ from album to album, label to label, genre to genre, etc. which virtuall
