I use a Watch 6 Classic, just went in to find this toggle. Doesn't seem to exist in the Japanese market at least.

He was involved in the design, planning, and future-proofing one of the major redesigns of Google's data center fabric. Google, AFAIK still uses a derivative of the fabric today. D…

Except that any lawyer worth their salt won't touch AI for fear of getting disbarred.

CarPlay and Android Auto only really started seeing adoption in post 2017 Model Year vehicles. Anyone I know that has one, will immediately either plugin or connect whenever they g…

You're conflating two things, magnitude and intensity. This earthquake was measured as a 6.9 moment magnitude, sometimes referred to incorrectly as the "Richter" scale. The Shindo …

Former Googler here, and one that has open-sourced projects while working in Cloud. This is certainly not the case in other product areas and for specifically for something that us…

Some weird data quality issues. Says my /24 is registered and announced in X, but in reality it's only announced in X, and registered in Y. Which would be obvious if you pulled the…

Note: jqwik was already using EPL, which isn't FOSS anyways.

You can still use the infotainment without signing into a Google Account. The only thing that's locked out is the Play Store and 3rd party apps (which you need the play store to do…

The apps now require the use of "Security Assertion" from the client. In this case, it's by Play Protect on Android, and whatever they use on iOS.

I would still call this accurate. ATMs from the major banks (SMBC, Mizuho, Yuucho, etc.) are still extremely picky about supporting US cards. Most will do it... for an egregious fe…

Tokyo Metro, Toei, Keikyu, and others have rolled it out across a significant chunk of their lines at this point. You can get to a significant portion of the network... So long as …

TBH, I actually hate this with a passion. It's a completely separate gateway product, and it even actively competes against Istio's own Envoy implementation. Leave it out and separ…

It's actually more of a social issue rather than a legislative issue. The vast majority of hunters live out in aging, rural areas. Areas where young people are moving from to more …

File a GDPR request to have a download provided to you? Seems pretty simple fwiw. Not that I agree with the practice of rug-pulling, but "hostage" is a strong term.

> Access to feeds from this network are restricted due to continued abuse of the service, which brings down the performance of feeds for everyone else. You'll need to use a verific…

Interesting choice to go with Prometheus directly, especially when other TSDBs have "native" support for OTLP ingestion support.

At least, in Japan, they're generally as advertised.

Depends on the country. In Japan, you could be considered a "public nusicance" and be tossed behind bars for a bit.

I'll get asked where I identify as "from" since I've moved around a lot as a kid, and without fail I'll respond 'Detroit'. There's so much history and culture to explore; along wit…

I would wonder if this could also be used as a kind of tripwire, where legitimate users won't present CAPCHA tokens, etc. But fake connections will.

AKA: the fast track to setting disbarred and sanctioned.

As someone with a bank account in the US, they absolutely do ask you for your SSN now-days. Hell, even my Japan Post Bank account asked my for my SSN.

Generally, this disclaimer is required for products that are released under the "Google" name but without any kind of support guarantees for enterprise customers. That or it's a pe…
