ADD does in fact do that.

Idk man, my computers don't seem to get any slower over time -- no upgrades to any components, either.

The decoder is an implementation detail that is a subcomponent of NOP; GP was right, and your correction isn't.

I would not be shocked if another open model eventually shakes out of Facebook (based on Zuckerberg's public remarks).

You replied to a quote about Larry Ellison personally with an unrelated remark about Oracle the corporation.

No one believes in trickle-down economics. As GP said, it's a pejorative straw man invented by its opponents .

This is an insane and uninformed take. The malware described in TFA can even more trivially harvest passwords, which have never lived in a TPM. Passwords offer no security benefit over passkeys.

I share the same sentiment, and my account is at least ten years old.

That sounds better for him than dropping it?

Faster and cheaper to put up is better! Modern insulation is more comfortable and saves you on utility bills; modern electric is safer and supports more usecases; it's easier to attach things to drywall walls than plaster; etc, etc,

Food insecurity is a bullshit category we invented because actual hunger is basically solved. Yes, it's (obviously) a much bigger category.

They also hold disproportionate wealth. It is absurd to arbitrarily exclude them.

$100k is and was a historically high salary, especially when millennials were entering the job market (~1999-2018). Inflation adjusted to 2026 dollars, that's $132-200k. Median adult full-time income is $60-72k.

We do not have tens of millions of hungry people unless you're including being a bit peckish before lunch time.

The new building methods and materials are genuinely better. (Criticizing OSB and glazing plywood is crazy. They're both just composite wood products. OSB is totally fine for what it's used for.)

Can you with even a single 3rd party? It's a huge waste of your time.

No, this is "omnicause" / "intersectionality" type thinking.

Hand sanitizer is also contaminated with other crap... presumably that impacts the adhesive if you're attempting to "recycle" it? I agree, what a weird line.

"East" of Seattle is certainly one way to describe it (100 miles east).

Even in Seattle, I feel like it only blew up in the last two days or so.

Ballard: it's one of the only north Seattle neighborhoods vaguely affordable to buy in. Lots of young families. Try to ignore the meth heads camping next to the Burke Gilman and industrial areas. (I live in Ballard.)
