I know right? I love the caption on one of those photos about “relatively neat” cable runs.

I agree there's safer languages than C, but nobody reads the 50,000 lines changed when you update the vendoring in a random golang project. It would be easy to introduce something there that nobody notices too.

The TC article leaves that a little unclear: were they actually looking at the plaintext or just gathering metrics about snapchat usage? The latter wouldn't require decrypting the session. If Onavo did install a certificate and MITM th

They could make the cables longer but there's definitely a cost aspect given they're liquid cooled.

Front center (like the LEAF) or passenger side makes most sense to me (for street parking), but it's just a free-for-all right now.

Dongles are great but supercharger cables are relatively short, we're going to see Fords blocking multiple chargers in various ways so they can connect. There's usually only one pull-in spot.

Absolutely love virt-manager. I try gnome-boxes every so often and it just doesn’t compare. I guess its interface is easier for beginners.

I’m sure it’s to exclude the MAX but I like it so I can find specific planes I want to fly. The old narrow/wide body filter wasn’t granular enough.

Until you need to do a road trip. I hated it. Non-Tesla charging networks are perpetually broken and few and far between in more rural areas. Going from MA to NH or VT was always nervewracking as they became just barely in reach in winter.

It’s a fallback for dead zones (as the article explains). I wouldn’t expect this to become its own standalone provider anytime soon.

There's a reason retailers have buyers who are experts in their domains and try to buy the best products optimizing for quality/reliability/price. I much prefer to buy things from stores like Target and Lowes now, because I c

They are, but Red Hat is driving people to kubevirt which I’m not sure is ready for all vsphere customers. But it totally makes sense for anyone wanting to make the container journey eventually.
