But from what I read it's common for FDIC to "sell" to the acquiring bank at a price that wouldn't make a loss. So if you marked to market all those long term bonds and then sold SVB to a bigger bank at the resulting (po

The sports automatic we're talking about here goes into manual mode if you use the paddles on the steering wheel. And then it operates the same as an F1 car, you are in manual control of the gears and the "automatic" side of

The low bar is: - It needs to be missed 2 consecutive months before it applies - You can't see the uptime, have to submit support tickets to get it - And then you only get to cancel a bit earlier (after 2 months of fuckups), not even a

They sell an option for paddle shifters on the wheel. Even F1 cars have automated gearboxes with paddles on the wheel, so it's not that crazy for a "sports" saloon to have the same?

I've mostly seen them use these small dolly things to lift the drive-wheels a little bit and then pull it onto the two truck. That method also works when the parking brake is set, which in cars with an electronic parking brake is quite

That's what I meant. Just looking up a DNS record as an implementation sounds like a bad idea. You would have to set up thinks like DNSSec validation, and consider all the ways in which that could fail.

Be warned that when using this a lot of the security comes down to your own implementation of that command. The suggested alternative using certificates is a much more standard way that has less ways to create holes in your security.

It's a defect in Tesla's engineering teams to release that kind of thing. Their self driving is a fraud, it does not work. Their CEO has claimed "it will be ready next year" for literally 8 years now. How much more bulls

That's the same for other manufacturers. It's called a recall in legal terms, in the sense that the original product as used is not safe and needs to be changed. The changing can luckily be done OTA instead of driving to a service

I use a USB 3 harddisk for that. Even my 8 year old "home server laptop" has usb 3.2 support which is faster than the disks can do anyway.

Even on a fairly old one (my "home server laptop" is 8 years old) it's really close in terms of power usage. And the laptop is much faster than the Raspberry and usually comes with fast SSD storage built in.

Same here but with an XPS 13 model. Power usage from laptop chips is great for home servers. They're still really fast when needed compared to a Raspberry Pi, and typically come with 256gb or even 512 of built in fast SSD storage. The

What? 2 seconds? That sounds crazy. It either breaks ongoing connections or wastes addresses since you would have to keep your old one until all connections are closed.

Similar with the building rules in the Netherlands. Houses must have passive ventilaton in each (bed)room, and some system to create at least a certain amount of airflow based on the size of the house. Simplest way is passive vents on the w

You don't need cameras for that, they wouldn't work in lower visibility. Typically ground radar is used for this at large airports.

In Europe the standard is infant with extra belt. It attaches to the parents belt. Some US based airlines offer this as well, but it's not mandatory by the FAA.
