Agreed. They are good ads if we're still discussing them. This is one of those critics that assumes the current times are the 'correct taste' and anything foreign to their taste is…

Can't wait for some kid to slip this into Google.com via AI chatbot and then massage the chatbot to complete the sale for $1.

Seems like we need a USB equivalent standard to RAM sticks. I have lots and lots of old (1-2GB), intercompatible sticks sitting. Sometimes you just need the space and not the speed…

He is wrong and right. They should be connected to the Internet when they aren't 30 year old PLCs ripe for abuse. Until then, cut the data lines and do water monitoring the old way…

Per the title, root is directly related to the problem at hand. "On non-rooted Android 17..."

And drugs are bad. Neither require root to work. Point not found.

That would be the Bloomberg terminal. https://professional.bloomberg.com/products/bloomberg-termin...

Toasters are heating elements with slots for bread. The 70s saw ten men walk on the moon and return to Earth to tell us all about it. Whatever point you were trying to make wasn't …

If you don't have root, you are not the device owner, you are a lessor to whatever companies and carriers are subsidizing your out of pocket costs. This includes iPhone and it's wa…

It is missing the wonderful and still unexplored archeology: https://www.livescience.com/64677-stone-structures-discovere...

There are over 2 dozen known senses to reality. Video input is a fraction of a sense. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sense#Artificial_sensation_and...

I'm skeptical of any Engineering loop that doesn't include reality (as in touch grass) feedback. Pure logic and reasoning is the domain of Maths and Science (philosophy). Surely it…

It's the logic that is offensive. Mimically restated - The title isn't incorrect but it won't be misunderstood by few. A synonym for offensive is disgusting.

Clause change doesn't rescue the logic. If anything it makes it harder to process. Refusing to hire junior engineers won't fix your actual problem. Fixed. I would click that.

I'm just staring at the title, wondering how this offensive, double-and-a-half-negative phrase made it all the way to the frontpage. I'm going to skip this one for that obvious rea…

Their source is Reuters and is literally the sub-headline. You did not read this article. Flagged.

This isn't a secfail. Why is pay.cloudflare.com so hard to establish? Why does marketing always get to overpower engineering? I expect Cloudflare services to avoid some sketchy .pa…

Fun to witness all the things it got right, which we can now remark wasn't close at all. The dystopian robotic future exists somewhere in a Chinese factory if anywhere at all.

Exactly. CVEs shouldn't be allowed to be anywhere near critical without a working PoC or other proof.. Trust+verify.

For this we can just use our old friend uptime. Solar downtime is always daily unless you're in the arctic. Nuclear power will be at least 2 nines. Battery and solar, that is the h…

The term got enshittified. Compare the definition over time via Wikipedia. Technically, NAS by the original definition can not host anything but a filesystem. It is simply free dis…

I don't understand this one. Yes, I want the long-life lightbulb. No, that doesn't somehow make it worse in every other way. The point is so obvious, I couldn't follow the logic in…

Very, very far. Corruption, failures in leadership, war, gerrymandering, and yet the press covers all of it and elections are being held on-time. Same as always, just at a higher c…

Slap the 'organic' label on it and sell it at restaurants for $150k/L. It will sell.
