    Is there another option? Or were you asking if it leaks memory? Maybe you were asking if it implements custom destructors? GC?

    I'd suggest buying the OpenWRT One. I've bought a bunch, and I think it's terrific.

    Oh dang, we all know –based on observation of your throughput and availability– that you're AI, you just can't "be nervous". Jokes aside, thanks for your selection. I had read some…

    Indeed. Seems that Amazon is doing this more and more. Here in the US, I've just received a used (and damaged) Rode microphone, sold and shipped by Amazon 'as new'. And as you said…

    I wonder how they are going to prevent abuse-theft, assuming the products are free or under the market's cost. There will always be someone wiping it all (to sell or whatever), and…

    I'm pretty sure wg0 was being facetious.

    Interesting. My brother had a very similar experience with an ASUS laptop when doing a RMA several months ago, in Europe. It seems that it's systemic.

    My favorites are Debian for servers, Arch for desktops. Debian in desktops didn't really work for me... a rolling release makes more sense.

    Pitifully, Porkbun's marketplace depends on Paypal... Otherwise it'd be perfect!

    I've always seen Russell Brand -like many street preachers- as something similar to the raw verbal intelligence we see now in LLMs: capable of bringing a stream of words with inter…

    Ryan —not Okai— is the one with a legal practice.

    Ha! Somewhat unrelated, but that reminded me of a homeless guy in Portland whose intro line was "do you know how you say dragonfly in Spanish?", to which I responded "libélula" (I …

    I'd imagine that it's referring to their endocrine system changes leading to changes in gene expression (of that many genes).

    Yet there are businesses like TaxDown and TaxFix trying to get in the middle (just look at how much they're spending on ads in Spanish TV). I seriously hope they fail, and also tha…

    At the same time, you're giving free feedback saying that his free comment is a poor comment. Arguably, his poor comment may have taken less effort than the poor video he was criti…

    When the conversation about "oh, you work for us?" started to get too repetitive, I'd just start using "Caesar +1" for the name, that is, instead of . The problem is that I'd still…

    I really hope so, but I wouldn't count on it... in my view, FreeCAD seems to be suffering from certain stagnation -similar to GIMP's a decade ago. The "triangle of uses" of Blender…
