Conversely, don’t expect the previous generations to quit using capitalization and periods. Your point is well taken, and thankfully I have neither a pony tail nor a motorcycle, but I am quite likely to observe 40 years of habit and driving

I ran across a similar setup in the late 80’s as a student studying industrial process control and the point of the field trip was interfacing to very old analog processes. The bowling alley was an 80 lane 10 pin and they had 80 pcs chuggin

There is nothing altruistic about Google. It is all about collecting as much metadata as possible to feed the ad tech money pump. At the very least, pulling from Google for fonts, which nearly everyone does, announces the page where it beg

The whole debate gives work to people who don’t want to work on the actual product or service.

They’re not fully functional in the case of Sony. Without internet there is no guide data for off-air TV even though it is not only part of the ATSC stream, Sony is decoding it. I know this because the pop up menu for the channel line has

It may be kicking LastPass, but it may also be trying to head off customer defections away from ALL cloud password managers. What happened at LastPass is likely to shake customer confidence of all vendors.

Then I am glad I missed it. I spend my days fixing other people’s Linux problems, I don’t wish to fix my own on my own time. I still love the OS, but only for Docker and Kubernetes. I’ll run a mature desktop OS with a plan over Linux, poss

They gave it to another GV user without warning, within 24 hours of its last use. You can not imagine the pain of having to recover the three accounts using that number for 2FA.

Google gave away the Google Voice number I had since the GrandCentral days, a number obviously used daily with purchased credits in the account and religiously confirmed linked number. Zero customer support, no way to get the number returne

Over the past four years, I have come to avoid using Linux for anything not needing Docker or not run as a supported image in the cloud. The divergent distributions and design philosophies are nice when they produce positive change (systemd

If you are getting prostate surgery, they are likely taking the whole thing and the patient’s sex life is effectively over. The win is not having to wear diapers or use a catheter, which is more and more the outcome. Sex someday perhaps.

The problem will solve itself. CGNAT will only take us so far until that no longer scales to where the ISPs want to pay for it. That said, IPv6 is a horrible implementation.

Because it is not a cache. High entropy tables require a lot of vacuuming, which adds overhead to actual database operations. While you can set autovacuum parameters per table, they still are not free . If you need something like Redis or

Surprised the FCC has not stepped on EV manufacturers for the RFI they create. They won’t just interfere with medium wave broadcast.

Yes, they were. Cellular networks and Meta’s app, likely not so much. It is what happens when you regulate monopolies, you can attach performance requirements.

You are absolutely correct, and I have no intention of abiding by this new way of vehicle ownership.

The whole ecosystem for car sales in the US is rigged, and not just dealerships. I had a surplus car, researched “fair market” value for private sale versus selling it to a dealership. I was closing up an estate, getting rid of it easily,

He was a staple of Showtime, not HBO. It was the early 80’s, Ron Popeil and his peers were still very much at it trying to change how people chopped, sliced and made julienne salad.

About 15 years ago, QNX was the OS for a couple different brands of multiplexers for ATSC television. After making adjustments to the streams, I’d fire up the solitaire game where the backs of the cards were a homage to the computing scien

Their replacements were far less reliable because the ICs were socketed, not soldered onto the board. My old man regularly opened the back of his 1980 RCA to “crack knuckles”…firmly seat ICs that had lifted up from the DIP sockets. The unr

Not on my phone or computer, and I am all in on their ecosystem. I was prepared to bail over their CSAM scanning plans and I can easily move forward with it for ads. The Pixel with Calyx is still quite functional. I have an ethical line a
