There's always going to be outliers, but there is this general premise that guys like Marc, Elon, and Bezos are failures in spite of their wealth. There is no way they Forrest Gump'd their way into that money. In fact, there is

This discussion is full of schizo solutions to "secure" SSH, most of which make no practical sense or have no technical basis. There really needs to be a definitive best practices guide published by a trusted authority.

My solution to this very problem was to virtualize an ancient OS X (was not easy) so I could continue to use a perfectly good scanner. Though I'm certain you've raised this issue before, and it was met with "I've never h

Walmart is selling a HP gaming laptop with 16GB RAM and 512 GB SSD for $699—same price as the Neo. Keep in mind it's not Magic Mac Memory because someone will jump in and tell us that 8GB of Mac memory is clearly superior to 16GB of PC

Why does every Mac complaint thread since the beginning of time always feature the "I've never heard of this so it must not be a legitimate issue" guy?

Good idea, we should divert taxpayer money to offshore wind and AI-powered food delivery startups instead.

I find it interesting the MSM is too busy sperging out about Trump to not treat this as page-three news and place it below the cut. It's also the first woman and black guy to go to the moon, for those keeping score at home.

You're right. The future of humanity is not in space, but in venture-backed smartphone apps.

That sounds extremely dangerous; you cannot add PV (or any secondary source) in the US and connect it to utility power without it being done by an electrician and inspected by the city. I'm shocked that safety-conscious Europe—especial
