    My bank took away the ability to do 2FA via email and is phone-only now. At least with the typical Gmail/equivalent account you have the option of making that less vulnerable to so…

    Yeah. I love this kind of stuff and appreciate everything the author has done but I think much better is possible.

    Thank you for this. I actually thought it was only me that found these kinds of "timestamps" much less useful more often than not.

    I've had this happen about three times now, but every time the actual problem is pocket lint inside the connector. After I clean it out it is back to working like new. It's not alw…

    My first computer! Lots of fond memories. Loading programs from a cassette in particular sticks in my head.

    This literally happened to me yesterday for a trip I'm leaving for in 3 days. The best part is that it's the second time I've been canceled on for this same trip. Naturally everywh…

    This one absolutely kills me. Why do my kids need Microsoft accounts for this? Their official instructions ask for DOB and require checking some box about allowing my kids to sign …

    Most (all?) PCs should have a BIOS option to always restore power after loss.

    I think there is the question of what people would do with the money they save by buying only the entry-level car. Would everyone really just save the money? I expect people would …

    I did FPGA development for a few years a little over a decade ago. I recently came back to it for a project after doing software and just wow--the tooling is still absolutely awful…

    Still using my 48G today. I used to have a 48GX as well but some (not old!) batteries leaked and ruined it. In high school I wrote some RPL for it that would use a small 9V-powered…
