Because they’re a monopoly and should get nationalized to ensure they align with the citizens rather than with the greedy shareholders.

50/50 for me. Last update didn’t shut down, one before that did.

I use Firefox with uBO on Windows and it doesn’t help. I tried installing filters I found online but they don’t do shit.

I’ll just install FreeTube.

Updates only make products worse, not better.

I just have my phone always silenced except for phone calls from contacts.

Each time it offers to translate a page, there’s a “Never translate from [LANGUAGE]” button.

Rural areas are already covered by Viasat. Which is going to be more efficient due to the simple nature of only needing like 5 to 10 satellites in the 100-year orbit height… rather than 60,000+ Starlink satellites in the 5-year orbit height.

Latency sucks with Viasat. You won’t play multiplayer games on it, and even web browsing will be sluggish with how many round trips displaying just a single page requires nowadays.

Try to do any formatting more complex than none at all in Confluence. It just gets polluted with invisible markup and changes styling randomly.

It’s the main most privileged program running on a computer, through which all other programs access shared resources like hard drives, memory, network etc. It also performs access control on these resources.

I’ve heard of people printing out charts, then cutting out the part they wanted to calculate an integral of, then weighing the paper.

If I have a camera on a tripod and I angle down…the view goes up. If I angle up, the view goes down.

I really like PowerShell’s object-oriented approach to pipelines. Unix pipes feel really dated in comparison.

And will only get more expensive.

Unix was originally a networked system that many terminals would connect to. Being able to actually reach the machine meant that you had authority.

It’s the same today. If someone has physical access, the system is so screwed that you can just give total privileges anyways.

First thing I do on Debian is disabling unattended upgrades. I will need to install some package now and it will always get in the way.

I got a note 10 pro as well.

First thing I did after I got it was to install LineageOS. It’s so much better.

I’ve even had one tell me that he and Pence were the two prophets of the End Times in Revelations.

In a way they are
