It sounds like you may have a undiagnosed local networking issue. I’ve been using Macs since 1991 and the last time I had the sort of issue you’re talking about was classic macOS, where AppleTalk would literally hang the entire OS when it went into the weeds.

shuffle != random

What you actually want is a true shuffle, where the entire set of songs is shuffled like a deck of cards, so you don’t get repeats. This is what iTunes does, to the best of my knowledge.

Correct — this is why 9/11 was possible then and impossible now, TSA or no TSA. Source: I’ve traveled on airplanes with some frequency between 1980 and now.

That won’t add pressure to get rid of the TSA. I don’t know what will. I’d support an actually libertarian party at this point. One that did not consider women and black/brown people inferior and did not defer to megacorporations and multibillionaires.

I had a Noppoo keyboard, which ISTR is the same manufacturer as RK, and I found the switches stopped working after a while.

This is specifically about NFTs, and not the general environmental problems with cryptocurrency, which exist, but are solvable with known technology.

It’s OK to be completely wrong, but you should reflect on why.

It's not true. The headline is clickbait. Read the legal filing. He's bitching about slow FOIA document production. Not sure whether that's a reasonable complaint here or not, but he's asking for a fuckload of documents.

Spoiler alert: I have done this and they disagree with you.

Look, everything is contextual -- your rural area may be superior in some respects to the ones I've been to. But you also shouldn't assume that your experience is universal.

Edited to add: if you haven't been to a big city in a while, you should take a trip. They're not generally the hellholes you've been led to believe by right-wing news media.

That's not a normal experience regardless of what's causing it -- you need to take that thing to your nearest Apple store.

What happened to the requirement to second-source semiconductors?

You need to spend a couple of days debugging scripts where someone has fucked up the indentation by copying and pasting with a program messes with leading whitespace. Or where someone has inserted an extra whitespace character in a random line in a long script.

Preview existed in OpenStep?

I think honest NFT fans would do well to find a way to separate the digital-goods aspect from the "here's a digital signature attesting that you own a hash corresponding to the Mona Lisa" aspect, the former being a real technical problem worth solving and the latter being pure grift.

What happens if your relative or friend is incapacitated in some way?

That's been the story of VR since the 90's.

If you view VR as a spectrum between ViewMaster 3-D and a holodeck, we're very much still on the ViewMaster 3-D end of things.

If you're a grifter, you're very much excited by opportunities for grift.

Even if accelerometer data is free, IPC’ing the data to the app consumes a small amount of power. It adds up over time. If it’s not needed, the app shouldn’t subscribe to it.

Your reliance on the far-right WSJ as a source for this makes me skeptical that this is solely the fault of environmental groups.

The git model is really not that complicated. What's awful is the command-line UI to the functionality.

Yup. PoC||GTFO article (one of many, IIRC) on crafting a polyglot PDF / JPEG file:

Genuinely curious: what is your actual, concrete security concern with not having a border wall? What do you perveive that to actually protect you, personally, from?

The advice is more generalizable than that: move your audience into content in spaces that you own -- not spaces that Zuckbook or Google or TikTok own.

That's an argument against having any package management at all. I respect that, but I don't really think it's viable in open source communities -- even Perl had CPAN decades ago.

You want the rural living version of programming languages. Package management is a dense urban core.

I wouldn’t judge Witcher 3 based on Cyberpunk 2077. Very different experiences, systems, UI, everything.

My link absolutely supports that conclusion completely. Other sources are also speculating based on hearsay. There is no evidence.

You’ve gotta do something about the boomers sooner than that if you want to inherit a living planet. The thing that makes Gen X as a group ineffective is that it’s a much smaller cohort than boomers or millenials. Boomers didn’t have enough babies to replace themselves, narcissistic fucks.

OTOH, maybe generations are just astrology for journalists.

That doesn't make any sense -- something that applies to "all music rock stars" would have to come from a mastering engineer or someone at that level and even then it wouldn't be universally applicable.

Contrary to popular belief, there is no evidence that he didn't listen to medical advice.
