The only novel use case that has impacted my life is friends trying to move money out of failing countries without detection. There’s no coincidence that this scam operates the same way. Sick of the crypto bros denying the other side and bl

I know this is late but I did a PiHole for years as well. But then I needed another solution for being out of the house, and my housemate later complained they wanted to see Facebook ads… And like the other poster my gateway didn’t work w

I’m not disagreeing just thinking your line of argument must say more about where all this perpetually undiscovered math is confined in the universe. It sounds like you’re forced to believe math is abstract in nature then, but doesn’t that

There’s so much more math though. More than will ever be seen or used in structures, thought about, etc even in principle. E.g. if string theory isn’t real the math still is, so where is it? Part of the universe is pretty unsatisfying.

Even those who don’t think ads affect them are mistaken. And if you extirpate ads completely from your life the tax is your time and effort to do so. That’s one of the most toxic mantras, it even seems purposefully misguiding.

I tend to skip breakfast if I don’t have something very easy to digest at hand and unfortunately cereal is that. And I haven’t found other alternatives. My stomach is very weak in the morning but I don’t want to skip breakfast. But I’m goin

Give me Google Glass so I can do both! I rarely add new gadgets to my life but I can’t help but constantly wishing I could watch lectures while exercising. The exercises aren’t something any other type of visual display could supplement.

Guess I’m one of those weird ones who returned my Fitbit and never use my Apple Watch. I liked them to establish baselines for new activities or trails but anything else was a hindrance. But even then what’s the point. Maybe I don’t think o

1. Luke had a knack for hitting things right where it matters most, a product of his ability to focus. Forget the long winded rituals and attack the target dead on. That’s Luke above everything. In spite of the weight of the galaxy, he does

It’s so frustratingly bad. I “-“ a search term and it’s in the title of the first dozen results nonetheless. DDG is slightly better (they say “-“ creates fewer results with the term, not none) and it’s only one in the top 3 say. Say you wan

semi-hyperbole : keep encryption but make it more expensive (maybe by law enforcement having a larger IT budget), and/or fund/cheapen AI CSAM to outmode encrypted sharing of actual CSAM. win win?

If you watch any food videos you’ll see the advertising soon enough though, usually in the form of rage bait or similar. Like using fast food as ingredients to recipes or way too much Velveeta in their recipe.

It’s so true and refreshing to hear. If I had to characterize my own successes in learning, they come from very “honest” teachers, and those aren’t always in intro courses. A few examples, learning PowerShell from Snover, one of the creator

Why should an individual’s speech limit a business to being a dumb pipe? I’ve never gelled with this aspect of “tech” (startup?) culture. Why shouldn’t an ISP or any company be able to limit for any lawful reason?

We don’t even get to “the reals” before this issue crops up though. Irrational numbers were rigorously studied before infinity and the reals, as far back as 500 BC. I’m not a computer scientist so I may have gap here, but demonstrating two

The metaphor hardly makes sense as more progress occurred outside Europe in the Dark Ages. Now the world is way more interconnected. What would a global dark age be? Unprecedented since humans developed agriculture. To think environmentalis

Was nice to see their videos and developer videos in contrast to others like Blizzard/Diablo IV. I know you can’t really tell based on one parameter like this, but you also kind of can. You can tell by this they got the product out the

I think it's because the CIA has been a very self-similar group for decades (Mormons). They have blinders of their own.

My own extended family is literally a cult about this. But, I’m back to iPhone because I actually need my phone portion to work. Went through 3 androids with constant call issues. Who cares if there’s a cult. The products are objectively wo

I will fully admit this is a big problem with Apple. God forbid you have two iCloud accounts and want to merge (not just the photos) My sister has two from living in another country for a decade and me, our dad, her husband, and her gave up

Yep I get way better service on iPhones. Even with wifi calling. I get 0-2 bars where I live. With my iPhone I don’t even have a tenth of the same reception problems.

I’ve switched back and forth. Just had worse experience overall on android. Maybe I’ll try them in another few years. For a low budget I went through 3 androids and settled on a used iPhone which was waaay more stable.
