djitz··on USC's Dying Linebackers
Boxers certainly take a knee or quit in the corner, but it is frowned upon. MMA is just a completely different dynamic. There is no standing count and the trend of refs stopping fights early on flurries of arm punches is undeniable.
djitz··on Facebook account banned after linking Oculus account
That’s what I did. Haven’t had any issues.

So how do you deal with the fact that plants clearly display varying levels of intelligence?

Inherently dangerous in what way? Who is the last person who you know of who met an untimely demise due to their steroid use?

This series is amazing. Thank you for sharing
djitz··on The Year the Internet Thought I Was MacKenzie Bezos
The snippet is almost always generated from the first search result, which garners the lion’s share of the clicks. Now, many find what they were looking for in the snippet and forego the click.
djitz··on Is Catalina a Good Upgrade Yet?
Unless things have drastically changed in the last 2 years, any MacOS update on a hackintosh is an absolute shitshow

Apparently, there are more tigers in captivity in the US than there are in the wild. https://www.worldwildlife.org/stories/more-tigers-in-america...
djitz··on Show HN: Saag as a Service – macronutrient-portioned Indian spinach curry
The macronutrients are what I would personally focus on with little thought given to calories. The macros are quite solid here.

I have no affiliation and I’ve never even heard of Sagg in my life, but it seems interesting.

djitz··on Amazon allegedly scammed out of $370K by 22-year-old's return shipments of dirt
Oh, that’s interesting. Back then, I was sure that an employee made the switch because of just how flawless the packaging looked.

No judgement here. Pretty much everyone has done or is related to someone who does some sort of crappy thing(s).

“Swappy swaps” LOL

djitz··on Amazon allegedly scammed out of $370K by 22-year-old's return shipments of dirt
Something similar happened to me when I was a teenager. I bought a 3dfx Voodoo card from Best Buy the day it came out and when I got home, it had a parallel printer port card in the box. After several arguments with managers went nowhere and I finally got a hold of the regional manager and got a replacement.

I thought the money I saved for so many months was lost. But alas, I was finally playing Quake deathmatch in glorious 3D after some heartache.

djitz··on PHP in 2019
I believe so. Updates are handled through composer package manager and the process is no different than updating a normal Laravel installation. I've never seen any info about how Spark is protected, so I'm just going off of my personal experience using it.

Tokens are issued from within the Spark customer dashboard and the token is required in order to pull the repo during install. It’s basically the honor system.
djitz··on Hacking Google ReCAPTCHA v3 Using Reinforcement Learning
It was only a matter of time!

I imagine using a standard text field and then hiding it using css probably works much better than setting a type=“hidden” field. I also usually use something like name=“phone” and then just naming the actual phone field something else, if needed.

djitz··on Hacking Google ReCAPTCHA v3 Using Reinforcement Learning
Something I have found to work well is simply adding a hidden input field to forms. Since just about every spam bot automatically fills every field and submits, you can just disregard any submission which has that field populated and there is zero interruption to normal users.
djitz··on Joe Rogans Galaxy Brain
The article begins with the headline “How the former Fear Factor host’s podcast became an essential platform for “freethinkers” who hate the left.” and then details Rogan’s interview of Democratic presidential candidate Andrew Yang 4 paragraphs later.
djitz··on Are Mail-Order Meal Kits Doomed?
I subscribed to Blue Apron for a few months and was unhappy with the service. Boxes would come missing important items or with incorrect quantities. Recently, I purchased a Tovala oven (and subscribed for the meals which go along with it.) So far so good! I only use it to supplement meals we cook at home or for lunch when certain dinners we cook won’t have leftovers, etc. It’s surprisingly good and we use the oven to cook our own food, as well.
