He hacked into PayPal accounts as a kid and now still is messing with people’s lives and livelihoods, the little shit deserves everything he is getting. Bring neurodivergent isn’t a get-out-of-jail free card, bad decisions have consequences

Hardly just politicians Seamus was coming out of the pub with his son when he stopped and put an arm around the youngster. He nodded towards the village in front of them and said, “You know, I built half the homes in this village but nobody

That’s just for the data, isn’t it, the code is Apple Sample Code License which I seem to recall is an MIT type license

After getting rid of most third party app support, 99.9% of all API access, losing massive chunks of active userbase and virtually all advertising except penis pills and scams, site performance probably isn’t terrible for casual users, it w

The guy is raving, if he had imported it, he was going to get ripped off by private corporations not by the government. There are no duties on importing US agricultural equipment parts into Canada, HST is max 15% so $1.50 extra. At $10 it w

No, only the M3 Pro processors have fewer P cores (5P+6E/6P+6E on M3 Pro vs 6P+4E/8P+4E on the M2 Pro) The entry level M3 has the same number of P cores and bandwidth as the M2 (both are 4P+4E (100GBps)) M3 Max has more P cores th

It's ancient history but Compaq only reverse-engineered the IBM PC BIOS for their own use. Some other clone companies directly copied the IBM BIOS and got sued, so it was Phoenix that provided the first 3rd party PC-compatible provably
