What a stable genius!

I was trying to remember the last time there was a power outage… I think workers had to cut the main power to our home for a few minutes a few years ago. It wasn’t really a big event.

They’ll just create new farmland for previously unused parts of the US for coffee, chocolate, rice, avocados, bananas… In Alaska for example, there’s lots of empty land there. They’ve thought of everything.

As long as the wavelength is adequate, you can track anything.

At this rate, I suspect that a good number also thought Obama was still in office.

That’s informative. I wasn’t aware that there was a regional dimension to it.

Some commercial ones did at some point. I’m not sure if they still do.

The question is whether their users care or not I suppose.

It’s Unix if you pay to have it certified (assuming it’s compatible to begin with). That’s basically it.

RES doesn’t seem to work anymore for me whenever I have search results on reddit.

You can set up a caching dns server on a pi at home with very little effort.

Which rarely, if ever, happens. Especially with US software.

You can strike out “descendents of”.

Now they publish it on TikTok and collect likes and followers.

Hold it. Did you pay for that receipt?

It certainly isn’t common.

Most of the “small towns” would be villages everywhere else, but it feels like it’s shameful in the US. Maybe some places decided to roll with it.

Them too?

And just try to get regular people to use email encryption. Yes, it could be signed to show that it hasn’t been altered, but then most users can’t even figure out where a file has been saved.
So they use faxes.

Here (not US) they’ve tried implementing a dedicated “secure email platform” for medical professionals so that they can exchange patient data. It’s both progress and kind of idiotic, but it’s not very widely used (because now, they have yet another email address to manage, on top of the six they already have to use).

You’d expect the zoo staff to be fairly aware of the state their animals are in. They usually have vets coming in to check on every critter regularly.

So, I might build a new machine next year. Does that mean motherboards will have an extra NPU chip on them? Or are new CPUs supposed to come out with the extra functionality?

I won’t be using it in any case, as 1. I’m not running Windows, and 2. there most likely wouldn’t be any purpose to it even if I was, but this will probably contribute to making hardware more expensive for no gain (yay).
