Yeah, unfortunately some of our workstations are MacOS and Linux based, so I can't solely rely Kerberos, we have to have LDAP (ideally LDAPS) involved. We were also advised by our email provider that they have used it for the company&#

Sure, but FDIC insurance is per depositor, per insurable account category, per institution. Someone with three different savings accounts at the same institution each with less than $250k individually but more than $250k total still only ge

There doesn't seem to be much that they can do to game it as the calculations seem to be based on uninsured deposits. The bank doesn't control how much a depositor places in the bank.

So, that answers the general mining comparison, but that doesn't answer many of the other points, including things like the impact of refining (which produces chemicals far more toxic than just burning coal), the estimates of global mi

Home Assistant is a great self-hosted tool for smart home things. They have a list of compatible devices that may be useful. Would require setting up a home assistant server somewhere, but that seems like a small price to pay for managing y

As this is all speculative, it's hard to say. But I would imagine that, were this study to be accurate, it would be something along similar lines of how long COVID appears to be unpredictable and inconsistent.

Focus your efforts on what you have control over. I am sure I am not the only one that despises have to use Windows and the spyware riddled mess that it has become, but I can't control it, so the only option (at least in the short term

These appear to be a much larger issue than what is normally seen by controllers designed by console manufacturers.

The issue is that the Joy-Cons joystick has what appears to be a design defect that, regardless of how much care is taken, means they have a high likelihood of developing what is known as "drift" or phantom movement without the jo
