In Sweden, we also have the chain called Max, which was quite early, and more importantly, serves a wide variety of products based on non-red-meat (plant, chicken, fish). They are generally pretty good too. https://www.max.se&#x2

Yeah. It's meant not to connect until sufficiently in sync. Running out of sync apparently results in the grid nudging the generator into sync, but here the discrepancy was so large the nudge became a percussive encouragement of signif

The article dives into exactly that quite a bit. And it's not some mantra or "special thing" really - just get dressed so that you're not wet or cold and you can enjoy the environment no matter what the weather is. Warm

Thanks for expanding on my knowledge. I have only experience implementing support for talking to a fluid property sensor in an industrial process and not much more. Thankfully, I might add. Looked at it like a fixed phy layer with some part

It's mandated by regulation in all cars after..2002? It's a port most often situated close to the steering wheel, the interface is a bog standard CAN bus. Where it differs between cars is what command sets are used and allowed (eg

I guess this refers to the "Red Ring of Death"? IIRC, heating problems -> thermal shutdown?

You may know this already, but if not - if you have others to share the console with (eg kids, partner), I think it'll be worth going for the '5 just from that perspective. Switching between games is a non-trivial (yeah yeah mock

Sorry, don't where you're at. Over here, it's commonly a month return policy of most stores (no law setting this, it's a voluntary thing). Then there's quite generous warranty for 2 years, up to 3 years, but that&#x

Sounds like you got a really good deal! 3 persons in the middle of the night on short notice doing a specialized task for you, with successful results. And you got a good story out of it too! Too bad about their dinner and your neighbors no

Do they wait with showing ads, say a month or so, until after the common return policy for most stores have expired? That would be a really evil thing to do, just struck my mind. Also, sounds like a case of optimization creep - "I know

it's probably also less error prone - more area meaning more data to base the identity from. Also less fiddly.

Impressive teardown/pentest! Love the writeup - clear and concise and a writing style that makes you keep on reading. Also, nice example of how advanced attacks can be from a dedicated person. While the tools are advanced to the layman

Agree. Of course Disney aims to maximize their value of the IP, also via methods that most don't feel are honest and net good for society. But that's where law makers should be expected to hold back and take the opinions and inter

Yeah. Other "favorites", which include also unclear directions where products are heading, are eg Microsoft Xbox naming: Xbox, Xbox 360, Xbox One, Xbox One S, Xbox Series X (compare against PlayStation 1--5), and the Google chat&#

I think having it forced upon them to refund games would be a great motivator to implement any such missing mechanism. I think companies in general gets too much of a free pass when it comes to their responsibilities and too much of free re
