This is great until your job outgrows a single computer or you want to have redundancy. Also, chains of bash tools don’t have the best error management when something chokes in one of the middle steps in the pipe. You can still leverage simple bash tools for a lot of the under the hood stuff, but you start needing something more to act as the glue petty quickly when you scale. KISS should still apply.

He’s not on the unfinished Empire State Building because the finished building is behind him.

Looks like something in midtown. Maybe Rockefeller Building?

The LED elements last a lifetime, but the driver transistors burn out as frequently as traditional bulbs

Wouldn’t the value of this advertising be a direct campaign contribution that could violate campaign finance laws?

They had a big library, but not the user base. They were definitely not maintaining anywhere near the infrastructure and bandwidth of major streaming platforms. Netflix claims 260 million users. It’s not hard to get a giant catalog when you dont have to pay for it.

The guy really doesn’t look like he knows what he’s doing. The lady picks up on it and promptly nopes the fuck out of there.

Just wait until they start scraping the chans

I expect it to create the next Qanon.

I suspect that it’s because they are marketed to be as much of a tech gadget as transportation. An iPad on wheels. So they figure that they can slip in this crap.

Pause? Not Canceled?

What serious coder is happy with one monitor?

This flaw is not really that bad because it requires the attacker to already have total and complete control over the system already. For example, if they were able to steal the root password.

This flaw just makes it easier for the attacker to hide and harder to evict them.

How to say AWS without saying AWS.

One of the hurdles to ARM is that you need to recompile and maintain a separate version of every piece of software for the different processors.

This is a much easier task for a tightly controlled ecosystem like Mac than the tons of different suppliers Windows ecosystem. You can do some sort of emulation to run non-native stuff, but at the cost of the optimization that you were hoping to gain.

Another OS variation also adds a big cost/burden to enterprise customers where they need to manage patches, security, etc.

I would expect to see more inroads in non-corporate areas following Apple success, but not any sort of explosion.

The test is negative. Sorry honey, you’re not pregnant. You’re just fat.

You do realize that they are actually tracking the device itself by the hardware MAC address and other device fingerprints.

The email is just a bonus to let them legally spam you. Anti-spam laws have an exemption. If there’s a prior business relationship like shopping in their stores, they can put you on their spam list unless you opt out.

Bogus email only helps for spam but doesn’t do anything about tracking.

EDIT: For Android when there’s a Captive Portal like the screen shot. devices will use Persistent randomization which while not the hardware MAC will remain the same for the same network where they can track your visits.
