    United has this on some flights. It's no cost but they force you watch ads in the captive portal. I'd rather pay the $8 and be left in peace, every time.

    For those interested, there is a lovely IRIX clone WM called MaXX. I've been using it for a couple months and have been quite happy with it on a remote dev machine. I believe it on…

    This looks neat but the biggest question I have and care about... UBO? Not the limited manifest v3 version or whatever it's referred to as, but the full bore block lists like in FF…

    This seems reasonable. The content includes themes (death, rape, violence, etc) that are generally considered NSFW by most modern day rating agencies. Just because cultures have hi…

    Essential Mix opened my early 2000s teenage world to so much more electronic music. Good memories of downloading sets via Napster and manually recording on to cassettes to listen t…

    Silly observation but the avatar 'Jack Frost', the snowman looking character on the attract screen was also used as a character in the early 'Persona' video game series also produc…

    Definitely, I would hope these kinds of systems become less useful with more encryption. I imagine, these kinds of collections I mentioned above are just one of many angles used in…

    So what was the actual point of compromise? Was it a CALEA supporting software vendor? My guess is a common MD (Mediator device) vendor was targeted that was used by many carriers …

    Heh glad someone mentioned 1.5, that was my golden version. Pack friends into my parents garage with a hub and play local. No famas/shield and no STEAMing pile of shit (as we calle…

    Similar request as the parent, my use case is I setup a long prompt/task and like to go for a walk around the block to get my legs moving. Being able to "move the llm along" and ma…

    Since this relies on simulating safari as the broswer, I wonder if a conditional access policy enforcing browser selection would help mitigate this. While only realistic for a smal…

    This was always a victory to teenage me after fighting with SDL and Nvidia drivers on Gentoo. Getting this to work with good framerate was always so exciting. Nostalgia hit for sur…

    So what's the application for data? Would this provide for tighter channels in WDM networks (with less spacing between channels) since dispersion is less of an issue? Might be out …

    So is this Microsoft account requirement a 'home' version thing? I can't imagine they would force this on pro installations. Unattended installs, kiosks, ATMs, display walls, etc. …

    You can use OSX without an Apple account and paired with a 3rd party host based firewall (Little Snitch), the OS usually stays out of your way (imo). Bundled apps can be removed af…

    At this point, I just won't go to any event where a Ticketmaster/Livenation/etc is involved. They've taken a lot of the joy out of music events for me.
