ostensible

The middle finger itself is protected speech. It does not create immunity for disruptive conduct at a public meeting, and omitting the conduct immediately before the arrest is misleading.

She got what she deserved. You can criticize. You cannot disrupt a public meeting and abuse people from the floor.

Apple promotes other Apple products in Apple products. End of the world. This yellow press is annoying. "Journalism". All this outrage to fullfill daily quota of text output.

And clickbaity title to go with it. As if there are temu ads on the lock screen.

Each user gets dedicated VM. They got contents of their own sandbox. Big deal. The level of excitement here is wildly disproportionate

I agree. Microcenter seems to sell a lot of flashy shiny garbage and not enough or at all of what matters — like cables or adapters.

It’s more a best buy than fry’s electronics.

We had a recently opened one here in the Bay Area — I went there once, having heard good things. Never again. It’s a bullshit emporium.

Bank of America provides 5.25% percent cash back on each category. Get one for every category. Done. (You need to enroll to preferred rewards for that). 3% is not worth to be bothered about, nor should anyone support robinhood in the first place.

You either play that game or subside others who do, regardless of of whether you like it or not — you are still participating. Prices are already higher for everyone.

iCloud’s HideMyEmail service generates @icloud.com addresses. Very easy, single click.

Nevertheless, I still use my personal name at lastname dot com for everything for decades and amount of spam is quite tolerable. Rarely it leaks into inbox. It’s even published on my personal web site in plain text.

Well, there is now some truth to it. For example, low quality HDMI cable will may be only good enough for low bandwidth, that would limit refresh rate, and/or color fidelity (e.g. chroma subsampling) and/or resolution.

So yea, “digital” cables are not immune to signal integrity issues, and better cables do perform better.

I understand that monster takes this to the next level of bullshit — but in principle, yes, more expensive cable cable can yield better quality. Or should I say — crappy cable can result in quality degradation

I completely agree. Only write if you have something to say. World does not need more pointless drivel, like the linked post.

This being raspberry pi absolves you from needing to buy a separate hardware noise generator: it has plenty of GPIO. For example, one can obtain entropy by sampling random noise generated by reverse-biasing a junction in a cheap pn transistor. Here is an example: http://holdenc.altervista.org/avalanche/. Bonus — maybe it will get you hooked on electrical engineering!

Btw, some versions of raspberry pi already have hardware random number number generator accessible at /dev/hwrng.

Eh, ads can be blocked. 5% cash back on travel alone on the other hand makes it continue to be a no-brainer. (And Whole Foods if you shop there).

Everyone understands that you still pay for free shipping. That’s not the point though. If you have prime your stuff ships first. If you don’t — you pay for shipping and/or have to wait longer. Sometimes on purpose, sometimes not.

And then there is a massive list of other affiliate services prime members can use - each one another reason to use prime, if you happen to use those services.

I’m actually surprised how cheap prime is considering its value.

I have switched to using xargs to parallelize things: it has a benefit of being part of posix, and is not annoying about citations like parallel.

This is what pays their bills. Major source of income for Mozilla is Google paying to be default search engine

Do you have a better solution?

You can complain on the forums about how unfair life is, how incompetent companies are, fight every provider to prove your reputation until cows come home,… Or you can pay someone to handle that for you. It’s a no-brainer. The whole discussion is moot.

You pay your plumber to plumb, your builder to build, and email delivery company to deliver your emails. Trying to DYI everything is a waste of everyone’s time.

Why not avoid fighting these windmills by using any of the existing commercial mail relays for sending — like SES or mailchimp?
