You’re using teams. Modern teams is built on Skype, which is why it’s shit.

I got, “I’m sorry I can play hangman yet” in Gemini

Actually, MythBusters proved that one couldn’t happen, unless the bullets were sub-sonic or low-powered and the diver was within 1 or 2 foot of the surface… water’s just too dense and depletes the power. And something higher power just made a big splash and bits of shrapnel that didn’t have much penetrating power.

You mean 2^267,709?

Funny… that’s a phone number I know.

I’ve nothing against the page having more technical farther down the page… I’ve done that with some computing articles that I’m qualified to talk about - simplify the description for the layman, put the technical description underneath…

Math nerds just don’t.

Aw, crapitalism will break because line cannot always go up.

Cry me a fucking river. Humanity is a cancer, and we need to be about half our current population. Yeah, we’re not gonna like it when we drop that population. Our kids, my daughter, are going to have it fucking tough. But if we want to survive long term… We gotta stop.

I’m academia? How about Wikipedia, an encyclopedia that should be written (at least at synopsis level) clearly and for the casual reader. However, anything mathematics related and… Fuck you, you don’t know how to calculate an integral? Git gud, scrub.

In one sentence, you say, “just use a password manager”, on the next, “not really an improvement if you need extra software”. I’m not sure what argument you’re having, but neither one really addresses what this article is about.

This keeps the passkeys in the password manager (I use dashlane, it rocks, and synchronises the passkeys just like the passwords), but this new protocol allows you to change and export the passkeys to other password managers, preventing vendor lock in and allowing for transfer to another password manager.

Hope this clarifies things! And everyone should use a password manager of some kind; we should expect whatever site we’re using to be hacked, and the only way to be safe is to have a unique password per site.

How did it feel to look at yourself with a hand mirror, knowing lots would be looking at the pictures of yourself looking at yourself…

Visually, at least on the outside, it looks something like a Stottie, Oggie or Pastie from the farming/mining areas of the UK. I always find it fascinating to see the convergent evolution of this sort of food - edible with one hand, hot and filling, with a crust that can be discarded if hands are filthy, or et if not.

And that’s because SpaceX at least try to minimise pollution (both light and radio). Not successfully, but it’s minimised.

The Chinese don’t give a fuck, just like they don’t give a fuck who their toxic rockets land on when launched over their own people.

It was a term coined to describe the step-by-step process modern tech platforms go through:

1. be good, get customers, grow
2. get large enough to corner market, concentrate on profits
3. get large enough to move to politicise their approach, drive out competition through aggressive tactics, and lock in consumers
4. drive more profit through dark patterns and ensure nobody wins but the stakeholders

It’s specifically that, and there wasn’t a word that described that process previously, as it’s only something that’s possible in a modern, “web scale” worldwide platform.

Crepuscular. Related to twilight, dimness, the golden hour.

I’m guessing Ford and Slartibartfast will try and get in to this floating party, and it’ll hit Arthur in the small of the back somehow :D

I like this picture. The blur, the background bokeh, it’s just… Nice.

Thanks for posting, you’ve a nice cat.

Hah, with you on that… I kind of like that the shield is directional, and if you’re facing the wrong way, suck it…

Waking up still inside from the night before… Time for round n+1

Yeah.

Been there… Last night, in fact. Sleep timer went off, quarter to eleven. Just took about an hour to download gow: ragnarok on pc, had half an hour playing. “Ok, just a few minutes…”

3am this morning… “Ok, I’m now impaired enough that I’m fucking fights up… Better go to bed.”

As “three dead trolls in a baggie” famously sung… “Every OS Sucks”.

As true today as when it was first penned.
