Playing devil's advocate here... aren't those same two things true of Sidewalk? If you purchase an Apple tag, then you benefit from other users who have this feature enabled. If you buy a device that uses Sidewalk, same situatio

I think the key problem is that it creates an incentive for the hopeful buyer to see if they can’t hurry the process up some.

Does this setup do 80M IOPS? I'm not sure what the point of your post is, everyone can make slow storage cheaply. The article is about fast storage which is also cheap (compared to similar solutions from flash storage array vendors).

Agreed. I'll add to that a healthy application of the Principle of Least Astonishment. If you have a light, there should be an obvious light switch nearby that turns the light on and off, and does so even if your home automation syst

YT Premium also includes YT music, and the creators you want to support get extra from Google when Premium users subscribe. For me, it’s worth the price and has almost entirely replaced TV for me (still need my F1 races...)

They are clearly marking the new models with a new suffix on the model number. As someone who has been trying for months to buy a 3080 and has zero interest in crypto, this is fantastic news... IFF it means I can actually purchase a card.

Not really, C is pretty deeply entrenched in the embedded world. Unless you want to bitbang something like a USB host, you’ll be relying on vender libraries, and those libraries are overwhelmingly developed in C. Same is true for pretty m

In the US debit cards work completely differently than CCs. In the event of fraud, the debit card holder is technically responsible for any losses. Your bank might step in to deal with that, or they might not. With a credit card company i

Technically... they can. It's the same authority which has allowed organizations like Microsoft to take over botnet C&C systems. The CFAA has specific carveouts to allow unauthorized access with a court order.

The GUI never allowed you to create such an array in the first place. If a user goes out of their way to put their storage array into an unsupported configuration, I get a lot less upset when the vendor makes that harder to do.
