I don’t really see the issue with that one. Most of my staff have commitments outside of work that require them to take certain days off or start/finish late during parts of the year. As long as they advise these things in advance, you can just schedule around it.

Also, if you have enough work on that you need more staff, even a part-timer still reduces the total workload on everyone else.

Weird. I have to switch all my machines to x11 in order to get multiple monitors working. Wayland just renders back screens on everything but main. Also makes remote desktop access buggy as fuck if it works at all.

A public suicide in the middle of a conference, with a sign around his neck anouncing the reason for it seems like something people would read about.

I gotta say, I empathise with him on his cause too. We need to stop equating the act of child abuse with the innate sexual to children. You’d think that by this point in time, society would be ready to accept that sexual attraction is not something people have a choice over.

What lazy scripts are leaving stuff behind in /tmp when they finish with it? It should be cleared out by whatever process put it there.

Those nut sizes seem way off. The smallest I have seen are 17mm, with most cars and light vehicles being 19-22mm

If something breaks then roll back to the previous version?

It would help if they released a table of data for this. Its states that the average ‘reject’ rate after four years is 5% of petrols, 11% of diesels, and 16% of EVs, but includes teslas with a 49% reject rate inside that category.

Without knowing the total number of failures for each make/model, it is very difficult to say that EVs in general are peforming worse, and not just being dragged down by the inclusion of swasticars.

SSID, probably not, unless you use personal details in it, like “johnsmithwifi5Ghz”. Hardware details of the router providing that ssid could potentially be used to geolocate you by device fingerprints though if compared to logs from website data breaches.

Eh, this one this actually fairly plausible as a suicide. Noose + drop = decapitation for any significant value of ‘drop’.

I thought they already did this? Wasn’t that their justification for killing integrated SMS?

Converting AC electricity into low voltage DC is fairly trivial. If you’re so inclined, you can build a rudimentary 12v psu yourself for pocket change.

Maintaining a consistent power output within a certain tolerance under load is where things get complex and costly.

The finer your tolerance and more robust your protection systems, the more expensive your components get and the more of them you need.

Assuming that there is good market competition and prices aren’t being jacked up for no reason, the difference between a $100 psu and a $500 psu is the difference between one with redundant protection systems, smooth and reliable power output, and a long life expectancy vs one that has far fewer of those things.

If you’re slapping a replacement psu into an old system that you’ve had for five years, and you don’t have a lot of investment in, then go cheap. If you’re building new and high end, then don’t cheap out on a component that could fry thousands of dollars worth of new equipment when things go wrong.

Outside of Unix based programs, probably not a lot.

In terms of their functionality most programs are standalone applications rather than tools where you modify the programming flow of the data.

Sorry Donnie, we’re gonna need a really big missile in order to take that down, could you send us some cash to build it?

Ryzen is produced by amd, why are we not allowed to append it to the ‘amd’ file?

Seems like he should stay in goverment and fix the law then. Identifying nazis as nazis should not be a crime.

They did that in “super best friends”

Luckily, someone has already tested this

The pope has actually been consistently calling for a ceasefire since his election, this is just the latest one.

It’s not just counter-tariffs. There are very few American companies with a completely internal supply chain. Every tariff US companies pay on their parts, materials, and outsourced labour inflate the price they then need to charge onwards, making US products themselves more expensive.
