Nah, macOS isn’t great, but it’s nowhere near as bad as Windows. You can at least use Homebrew etc without needing to get permissions to install WSL2 and such.

But Ukraine has a navy…?

My keyboard psychologist also says that person has some kind of codependency issues… but if they’re truly happy, all’s good and I wish them well.

There’s nothing wrong with snitching if someone is unduly threatening you.

How does that work? Aren’t you still paying quite a bit of US taxes, and then also paying UK taxes?

Bundesrecht Art. 28g:

1 Any person whose personality rights are directly affected by a representation of events in periodically appearing media, especially the press, radio or television, shall have a right of reply.

2 There is no right of reply in respect of accurate reports of the public dealings of an authority in which the affected person took part.

I’m not an expert on Swiss law, but I don’t see any reason that they’d be entitled to a reply…? Let’s hope the courts see it the same way. Bullying small independent media for their factual reporting is just low.

I hope her reports continued to “take an entire day”.

I have is Windows 11 Enterprise, and that doesn’t start the classic… even if I manually invoke that classic notepad.exe from system32.

I have never opened Microsoft Store other than to install WSL2, and I don’t think my company’s admins are dumb enough to provision such stuff automatically, but I dunno. If I uninstall the store Notepad, it’d probably revert back to the classic version, but of course I’d rather uninstall the entire OS…

Nah, that version is the standard Notepad in Windows 11. Unless you do some modifications to disable app aliases and uninstall some stuff, you will never have the “classic” notepad.exe.

I wouldn’t be surprised if a sizable amount of these people have some kind of parasitic infection -> take a dewormer -> don’t feel as sick anymore -> zomg the government doesn’t want you to know!

I assume he meant something like 櫻桃蘿蔔? Suan cai isn’t in the genus of Raphanus.

How do rescuers get into the car via the handle when it’s locked? Or are cars supposed to unlock upon failure/crashes?

Why would that matter? It just looks like HTTPS traffic if you set it up right. And even if they fingerprint it as Plex, they can’t see what exactly is playing. Yes, my Plex library only has public domain content of course.

To mitigate these limitations and reduce write pressure, we’ve migrated, and continue to migrate, shardable (i.e. workloads that can be horizontally partitioned), write-heavy workloads to sharded systems such as Azure Cosmos DB, optimizing application logic to minimize unnecessary writes. We also no longer allow adding new tables to the current PostgreSQL deployment. New workloads default to the sharded systems.

“wow, we’ve made our postgres so good and fast… by moving heavy workloads to a NoSQL database engine”. Truly mind-blowing, OpenAI. Just like their LLM service, not even their technical staff can stop themselves from lying and writing misleading statements.

The only interesting part could have been what they use for caching… but of course they don’t give any details at all. And all the rest is already well-known DBOps stuff… and basically all automatic with stuff like cnpg.

How’s that good news? It sounds like they are just double-dipping…

Nah, it’s still inappropriate to ask such a “hypothetical” question because it forces some kind of answer.

If you’re really set on trying to initiate something with someone who’s on their job, write your phone number on a paper in advance and say directly before leaving “text me if you want to get a bite to eat” or something. But please don’t.

And/or they don’t want as much resistance. “It’s fine to save all this info on non-Americans”. The road to fascism often creeps slowly.

“meet Fridays at midnight under the Brooklyn bridge”-vibes.

Hot take: for-profit orgs should be buying TLS certificates from the CA cartel instead of using Let’s Encrypt. Unless you’re donating to LE, and in that case it’s cool.

America’s population is below my 50% threshold (~4.1 billion). Goodbye.
