Not having kids? Straight to jail.

FUCK LG

He followed the worker in his car after the worker left the work site. I’d call police too.

How do these people that agree to a contract when signing their city up for Flock not understand about early cancelation and breach of contract clauses? Nah let’s just cause the taxpayers to pay even more.

I use a few MA apps, none of which have declared the internet permission. Nor would I ever want them to have internet access.

But a few MA apps actually do require internet to work for their intended purpose, and I will never install one of those out of fear all the MA apps “secretly” talk/share/IPC my data with eachother, effectively granting all the non-internet apps the internet permission.

I’m not saying this is happening. But I’m also not about to delve into the entire codebase to find out.

Maximize gains for the short term only, and screw the long term. Of course!

I’ve always used Server Superstore, the prices are decent and never had an issue with any unit.

Keyword “halfway”

It stores large chunks of data the size of the stripe width. This could easily be large enough to contain a whole text file, and enough of binaries to reasonably guess aa to what they are. Encryption may slow down IO, but if you even remotely worry about seizure you should absolutely be using it.

He didn’t like eating human food the first 100 times, maybe he’ll like this next dish though.

Fuck LG and their malware bullshit. Never buying LG again.

I think showing tracker info is still a good, insightful thing. Sure, giving an impression one piece of software is better than another because it has less trackers is a bad thing. Users that care about functionality will vet apps on that regard, same with security and privacy conscious users. Some users just like the app to be pretty, and if they ignore everything else but make a decision based in tracker count, all the better in the long run.

Been using zfs and btrfs for so long I forgot ext4 was a thing. Oh my.

Nuke the context menu and try to Frankenstein it back to life. Fuck Windows.

Everyone goes to sleep after 2pm

No power as in from the grid? Fire up my house generator so we can at the very least have water (from a well), heat (in winter), and preserve the goods in the refrigerator (was once worth a fortune!). Its powerful enough to do everything else though, as if we were on-grid…

A day without power? Not in my house for the necessities stated above. While tent camping, sure, but I mean I still bring my phone and a battery pack to charge it + lights and stuff… so hmm

Back when rooting was all the rage I tinkered with hosting various services. It just didn’t make much sense for such an underpowered device, amongst other reasons (battery swelling).

I did use an old phone to “host” a game automation. One of those “idle clicker” / RPG games since I’m so lazy. After about 2 months the battery swelled and popped the back cover off. That was the end to that idea…
