    No, we need to transfer a lot of power instead. So those with 800v cars need to be mindful to visit certain charger stations/types over other ones in order to get a fast charge, vs…

    It’s not a technical limitation. Nobody sees the need to build it that way though.

    I concur about the picture quality of their OLEDs - it's incredible. But I can't say anything about their interface or software - I've not seen them for probably a year+ at this po…

    Have you tried /usr/bin/say ? Might already have something sufficient for you - there’s quite a few voices there.

    Is anyone actually running new telecom copper these days? I’d be surprised if so.

    Looking forward to reading about it in The Lancet or another respected medical publication.

    If the cabling was installed before the drywall, good chance it's stapled.

    Wouldn’t Kiro fit the bill?

    The nice thing about having a rep that supports my ideals is I don't really see the need to. It won't change anything, and I don't need to convince them.

    Plus, decrypting using a key stored locally cuts out a network roundtrip, which has battery and data usage impacts.

    Both Apple and Google offer the ability for your app to intercept and modify messages before being displayed. Use that to send encrypted messages and decrypt them there, using your…

    Moving over to the management track and trying to not suck at it.

    Tell your developers to start logging the exception, not just a hard-coded error message.

    It’ll work great if you can get the drivers all aligned properly. I’ve tried a few times to get my 12 year old Brother laser setup like that, and each time I end up throwing in the…

    The United States does not have a Secretary of War, and has not since 1947.

    Sure, but that seems like quite a high gatekeeping bar for a test suite.

    Not necessarily. Would you respond the same if the previous person said, "Was this built using an IDE" or "What qualifications do you have to write this software"? Shit code can be…

    I pay $25 for my backup 5G internet - but unlike a mobile plan, it's actually unlimited at 300mbps, and I don't have to resort to TTL shenanigans and such to use it for my whole ne…

    How long until “first principles” is a meme like “considered harmful”? Or are we there already?

    It's good that MLT did cancel them, but there's still a ton up that way. Mill Creek, Lynnwood, Marysville, just for a few examples.

    For me, s/FreeBSD/Debian/. Same reason.

    Who is the "we" here? I've poked around a few pages on this fellow's site, and apparently haven't found the right one to answer that.

    Not necessarily; "read file" is very different from "execute command." The biometrics part is a substantial lift as well.

    It's much safer to export a key one time and import it into a new machine, or store it in a secure backup, than to keep it just hanging out on disk for eternity, and potentially ge…
