Did I miss something, no mention of the sheer number of knockoffs and fakes? You can't even buy a book on Amazon and be sure its real; this reputation must have some effect on their sales?

The feature is turned off by default -- if you are conscientious you can turn it on, or if you have no worry of offending others, then leave it off. Whats the problem? I do love when people argue against 'woke', missing the fact t

Cool, more space junk. Currently 2000 satellites to services 140,000 customers doesn't sound like much of a benefit to society, honestly. And at $99/mo its not likely to help the people who actually need remote internet access. Th

A big give away is they now mark your feedback as 'we have seen this, thanks' less than a minute after you post. The link "what we do with your feedback" I'm sure is just Rick Astley

KB5009543 causes ReFS volumes to show as RAW, even though Storage Spaces shows healthy. Uninstalling this update fixes it, which is nice. Fun times. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/answers/questions/694107&#x

The problem with clickbait headlines is that once your readers figure out the title is misleading, your reputation is forever tarnished. I got a chuckle out of the result here, but honestly I won't be checking back to see anything new

As I read, only two specific servers provide this -- ut1-wwv.nist.gov for example, is well labeled too. Its not clear if its part of the standard round-robin but the wording gives me the impression that it is not.

I can agree with this. I got a bluray burner and I could rarely get blurays to actually play properly or at all. Somewhere between software, licensing and drm , I now have basically a paperweight. An old ps3 does the trick though

I tried for a minute but it just wouldn't work out of the box and I didn't have time to investigate, so I reenabled the default for now. I thought I saw somewhere rust devs themselves recommending Rust Analyzer too

My mom just got one and it was nice to setup, but I read somewhere recently that people were discovering the hard way that the standard ink fades very easily. I think you can find archival inks though. I have never heard of Wilhelm Research

This makes me smile. I bought a Canon Pixma inkjet photo printer last year, and upon taking apart the cartridges I was surprised to find the only thing inside was a 6 pin chip connected to nothing else but the printer -- no level sensing at

Looks neat, but I recall when I had an old beefy Dell with a full size keyboard having the keys offset by the numpad was really awkward, as the screen isn't directly front of you. As a lefty, I would at least want to see a swapped vers

So there is no data for off-chain, so nobody knows? In the world, no 100m is not mainstream, particularly by its definition, "the ideas, attitudes, or activities that are regarded as normal or conventional; the dominant trend in opini

Last stats i just saw pegged the world wide number around 100 million. Lets be generous and say 500 million, versus 7.9 billion world pop puts you at a generous 6%, not exactly mainstream. (pdf) https://assets.ctfassets.net/

But for a fee. You paid for software that is letting you mine to benefit Norton, because most people's computers are not going to break even on electic cost. If it were all that altruistic then they shouldn't need to collect 15%,

Could be. And its weird especially when supporting all 4 bytes would be easy (so it seems). For fun I did dig around though, and found that even in the earliest documentation they clearly state only supporting 3 bytes, though not why. It sa

Someone should do a study into how google comes up with the best tongue-twisting verbal soup, yet lackluster at the same time. I've got my bet on a mix of groupthink and the legal department. Imagine trying to use that in a sentence to

I agree, although the change was prior to 4-byte utf (2002 vs 2003) the same issue would have manifested with 6 byte sequences. Very curious. It would be really interesting to see a postmortem by mysql if ever possible, because the more I t

In the end you need to ask an authoritative server anyway, but this let's you skip your ISP being the middleman for all your general queries. Unbound is nice because you can have it verify dnssec

Not much but you should have a good grasp first, and the implications (easy to add, tougher to remove) There are tools to automate resigning, but personally I just do it manually once a year for fun.

While searching yesterday, I recall the mysql documentation did specify this this quirk. As I gather, this change happened prior to or at the change to 4 char max utf; was supplemental plane support required at that time? 3 char is still ut

The 2002 diff got me interested in the context of why that change was made, which lead me to this 2006 bug which I think might shed light on why '3' was chosen: "The UTF-8 encoding is a variable byte length encoding. The A
