I knew the words. I did not expect it to have been a mixup as amnesia is a much more commonly used term. I posted the comment because I am aphantastic as well but have no difficulty navigating, in fact I am typically delegated to for the ta

Ugh, worst of it for me was a trip back from the Olympic peninsula late at night a while back -- Apple kept trying to auto-reroute me to a path that would have me waiting 3+ hours for the ferry instead of driving around the peninsula (<2

Depends on the store. I can have Amazon deliver me Egan by January 6 (9 days from now), or I can walk down to the local sci-fi store and pick one up off the shelf today. Of course, Barns and Noble don't even stock his books.

I experienced the same, but once I enabled JIT (disabled "Advanced Security" for the site), it was smooth.

Have you had much luck with Podman? I used to do QA for tooling to integrate VSCode with Docker and also couldn't stand the MacOS experience. But from what I understand podman works without the daemon and is generally more stable-ish,

You sidestepped https://mobile.twitter.com/AP/status/1606381652216893440 , I'll give you some more time to come up with why people's claims that the Government would do exactly that were/are "c

Adding an item to a cart and it persisting is quite directly a service explicitly requested by the user. And if some EU kangaroo court forces me to click through a “clicking add to cart will save this item in your cart, do you agree to perf

IndexedDB/LocalStorage can do all that without relying on the server. The real shame is that Apple has decided IndexedDB is too powerful to allow outside of their walled garden and will auto-delete it after a week or so. Worse still, S

Ha, speak of the devil :) To be clear, "then gave up" means I ended up just running the install script. Thanks for your work on Bun! Hoping to use it for a speedy websocket server some time soon.

Funny, I thought about this today when installing Bun^. I read the bash script, saw that it was indeed downloading a release binary from the official GitHub repo, then gave up. The binary it downloaded could do absolutely anything when I ru

Do you think that bot magically sprung itself into existence? Or is it more likely that it was written by a human, as ordered by a human, in response to well-documented (also in the article) pressure from the White House to prohibit the spr

Why do you think you get to decide? Based on the content the Government has allowed you to see. My statement is in line with what a Harvard professor of epidemiology stated^, so that's something. Of course, you wouldn't know about

This doesn't apply to Craigslist, it only applies to marketplaces (where the platform is in charge of collecting and distributing fees). Regardless, for personal sellers the only required disclosure is country and state of operation.
