Yeah, 445, eg one from bumlam.com "suuid3" with 20 year expiry and under the "unclassified" category. 29 are stated as "necessary", 10 as "preferences", 46 statistics, 266 marketing, 94 unclassified.

My pet peeve is low contrast, makes it really hard to quickly distinguish between parts of the page. Simply by changing the light grey background for something much darker makes the individual charts and boxes pop out, making it so much eas

Yeah, it's upsetting. As soon as merchandise X is prefixed with "wedding", the cost is doubled. Wedding cake? Boom. Wedding napkins? Check. Etc. It's astonishing how easy it is to fall into the trap of "it's ju

The Saleae logic analyzers are really terrific value and utility and I really encourage everyone not to buy clones but instead support the team by buying the real deal. Through the last years I've bought >5 units (at various places)

The yeelights are typically bought on eg Aliexpress. I have mine with the local network developer functionality enabled, here's to hoping they will still work with that at least.

Well, why not see it as a feature? Plausible deniability for anything that happens on your wifi, also plausible that it is out of your control.

Not-connecting on FB might not be enough, since FB can and will connect the dots and suggest attendees as friends based on them being at the same place at the same time (thanks to location tracking from apps and whatnot).

The thing is that you can't simply lump all military-related activities into one heap. There's a scale from passively only reacting in self-defense when acted upon, to actively seeking engagement on foreign ground. This thing Goog

Every question is easy to answer once you know the answer, the trick is finding the answer. It's often harder to know what you don't know, than actually finding the answer.

It's designed for a very different use case, where power is a primary concern. Not so if the same CPU and stuff were jammed into a car (under condition that the heat is taken care of so it doesn't throttle itself).

That, and the inattentive safety driver. It's quite infuriating really, letting lose a ton and a half of fast-moving mass without even the decency of looking where it's going. There's really no excuse.

One can guess that the primary source of release of the chemical is not by rubbing yourself on things, but from washing your clothes. Thus, it would end up in the oceans.

Because there's a difference between how I read an ad versus an article. The point of submarines is to get the reader to drop parts of the defense one has against ads and be more open to the content.

That might be the case, but the constant reminder of race is very weird to me. As in, it's very common to denote someone to be "black" or "white" or "hispanic" and so on. I can understand this to some exte

It went into "safe mode", which sounds like a catch-all for every conceivable and inconceivable error they don't explicitly handle in any other way.

Semi-related tip: I despise protected pdfs with a passion. Especially when you download a datasheet and you can't add annotations or highlights to it. So, how to remove this protection? One way is to print to postscript and convert bac

While they didn't pay the $35k, it couldn't have been cheap. I wonder how much was spent on lawyer fees to produce the documents presented in TFA. All of them thoroughly researched (to me, a layman) and presented. Looks expensive.
