   The main complaint I have against IPv6 is the addresses are so unwieldy. When I look at them I have the same reaction as when I look at some kind of complex scientific formula comprised of operators and symbols that are unfamiliar. It als

   SimCity, Starcraft, etc. taught me the value of saving up. But after some decades in the real world, I think computer games should simulate inflation so youth can get some practice at this!

   I vote we all add that HOSTS entry to poison their despicably dark-pattern detection algorithm.

   Why would I want to replace my reliance on them with reliance on Amazon or another cloud provider? I'd rather control the whole stack, even if it means deploying my own hardware to one or more redundant, off-site locations. Edit: Are t

   But why? This feels like the kind of domain in particular where the advantages of a GUI provide a superior experience, and once it gets sophisticated enough you'll have basically built one anyway just in the terminal. I used blocky spr

   That headline doesn't match the article at all. Can someone elaborate/confirm this really is the case?

   My impression is most commercial insurance policies specifically exclude acts of war (and similar). The extent of systematic damage that can occur in such scenarios would easily put them into insolvency. There are exceptions for life insu

   If anyone here is involved in making decisions about where to locate such centers, I'd love to hear more about how geopolitical risk factors in, and whether you plan and price out contingencies (e.g. "This is near an unstable area

   This is a great article. It explains steps I used to fumble through stabbing in the dark following piecemeal examples trying to bring up quick and dirty networking on an oddball Linux device (like a BPI-R4 or router VM).

    The dust and dirt that will collect in all those aesthetic grooves that look like layer lines will be epic.

    I'm tried that, I've even plasterd the inside of my mailbox with a mini-poster directing to not leave it, and it hasn't worked at all.

    My issue isn't with them having different verbiage for different jurisdictions. It's with the way they sneakily change the verbiage in a manner nobody would expect. The correct way to do this is to clearly distinguish them e.g. t

    My understanding is you can't just call and order up certain sophisticated equipment like an EUV machine. I thought there were record backlogs at the moment, and the supply chain to manufacture them can't quickly scale. Any discu

    This is truly unhinged Granted, but at the same time it's also resolutely pragmatic. Apparently there was already lots of software out there which expected to be able to write new versions of system components. As well as buggy soft

    Wow, if you brought a paper contract to court that mutated itself depending which way you look at the paper, I wonder what a judge would think of that? Personally I would crumple it up and pitch it out the window. I don't know why the

    I really hate these so-called Terms of Service that are more a set of instructions than they are a contract. Eg. "If you see something wrong or inappropriate from Copilot, use the Report or Feedback features in Copilot to let us know.

    There is more information in a typical, single page of comments here than there is on the average webpage. And I'd say a far higher signal to noise ratio (though depending on the topic discussed some will disagree).

    This is awesome news. One application I'd love to see run in Linux is Solidworks. Is there any interest in this, what would be the most effective way to support it financially, and how big a donation do you think it would take to ach
