Rather, he’s saying if someone sold something to you, you get to use it. I don’t think any further analysis of this comment will yield anything more.

Money can be exchanged for goods and services. (And licenses, but don’t obscure that point in the fine print.)

Often out of necessity. I fantasize about disconnecting, but the reality is more complicated; it would difficult for me and others around me were I to disconnect.

I felt like I was walking through an industrial space and bonked my head on "piping" trying to read this -- hahaha! TY for melting my brain just a tiny bit.

I struggled to decode this and thought it was an LLM spouting drivel -- haha. After reading I see now that this is a character from a comedy called "Patriot". Got it!

That’s available! I miss the tactile experience myself. Hmmmm…

Does this move ever go well?

I don’t think first and third world countries is a useful metaphor any more and It certainly is out of place here. This is one company that is gross. I am Not sure why one article about one gross company should stand as an example of an entire country’s decline. Weird.

This is true of any game though. Cheating definitely exists, overwhelming majority of players are not cheating though.

As an aside… Beating a cheater fair and square is extremely satisfying.

Waste is constant in this context.

Could you elaborate? I find web browsing and moving files around to be practically an equivalent experience between mac os, windows, most linux distros.

Neat! Similar: If you happen to run pfsense on your network, check out pfblockerng, I really like it!: https://docs.netgate.com/pfsense/en/latest/packages/pfblocke...

So that people can listen to the article, I would assume.

They must be stopped!

Sure. But the clarifying words are useful in this context. It’s software; a web app that you can host yourself.

I could see keeping a pair of these in my backpack as a nice way to game with my son if the opportunity arises. Assuming the context is appropriate. Airplane, train, waiting room, etc.

Would I trade this for a full-size at home? No, obviously not.

These services do already exist. I’m not sure how I feel about this.

What you describe is basically this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BNC_(software)

Also, tangentially related to your first point; I am personally exploring more ways to disconnect. Even if it’s just briefly, like not bringing my phone to the bathroom as you describe. I realize now that I hate being always connected. Vanilla irc sounds like a dream compared to the nightmare of constant connection.

No, but understanding the position of the author is useful. There is an agenda behind this article. If my goal is to avoid death during a pandemic, personally I would rather read articles about pandemic response by epidemiologists rather than economists.

I see no contradiction.

M1 powers by far the best arm based laptop available today - all arm laptops hence forth will be compared to it. revolutionary.

Apple iterations on arm have been regular and consistent for a long time.

Have you read about how it works?

Care to elaborate? I fail to see how it "doesn't do anything it purports to do". It allows people to pick/rank multiple candidates, which neuters the whole "least of two evils" problem traditional elections have. It would also destroy the two party duopoly, If it were used more widely. That'd be great.

I've been meaning to check out https://shinobi.video Appears to be a much more modern take compared to zoneminder.

Adorable

Prove it

This is all well and good. But the forced/unsilenceable pin reminders seems a bit obtuse to me.

"Can I turn off these reminders?

    It is important to memorize your PIN, and the reminders cannot be disabled. We cannot recover your PIN if you forget it.
    You will see the reminders less frequently if you consistently enter your PIN correctly. The reminders will become more frequent if multiple attempts are necessary."

I was about to be like "ummmm no, that's silly"...

Then I looked it up(using Google - haha)

Well I'll be dammed, DDG does use Bing. Wow.

This is still an important area of study. Plenty of very smart people don't get enough sleep and don't understand the consequences.

Well I'll be damned -- It's a fork of WRT54G.

DD-WRT hasnt had a stable release in 11 years.

Tomato hasn't had a stable release in 9 years.

OPEN-WRT is a fork of DD-WRT. Lede was a fork of OPEN-WRT, but has remerged with OPEN-WRT. OPEN-WRT is the best firmware for home routers/access points in my opinion.
