This happens a LOT more often than you think. I worked with a well-connected person that killed a dude while she was drunk driving. She was not in jail at any point.

I’ve been using kbin as a mobile pwa on iOS without issue. It’s been getting better a little bit every week.

Because it’s a small island country and there’s no need for cars. Public transit there is intense. Automated light rail between communities connect to subways that connect to everything. Their buses are great too.

The cost to drive on the road is probably about the same as the cost to buy one.

About 10 years ago a Chevy Malibu had a sticker price of $120k USD, which included registration for 10 years.

Go for it?

Mobaxterm has many more features than what you’re asking for. You might not use anything else after using it.

You want to use as little space as possible tonsave on cost.

A server with ipmi is ideal.

A hardware vpn firewall is a good idea.

Do you need to provide your own router or switch?

Mass effect series, on ps5. I’m on MA2 right now.

those steps were going to break at some point.

You can't simply mix up some cement and fix it. Cement doesn't glue to it'self after it's set up. You'll need a special mixture to get anything to stick to it reasonably well.

Plan on getting the steps redone, and patch it with some repair mix for the short term.

A significant amount of trade skill knowledge and examples are tied up in YouTube. Does anyone remember building a deck before YT? You would go to the library, make copies of books or magazines that had a general idea on how to do it, then you would try to do it yourself and things would go wrong constantly.

There’s a lot of this type of stuff that would simply be lost. It’s not unusual to find videos from 15 years ago that are still relevant today.

It’s not like it doesn’t make sense though. It makes sense that a credit card works the way it does because real-time authorization isn’t always available, and because there is a lot of legacy/backwards compatibility going on. If you wanted to “fix” credit cards you would get rid of them completely and switch to an identity service that allowed you to “federate” your identity with a lender’s service.

It sounds great, but in practice getting all of the ancillary parts working with each other is tough. Look how long Apple Pay (one of the better implementations of a better credit card) has been around and there are still a lot of places that don’t accept it.

Thinking about privacy as a 1:1 exchange with a service is already thinking two steps behind. Services have been using your info to create targeted ads since the beginning of capitalism. It really stepped up their game when computers and databases got involved, and as the internet became more prolific it got even more precise.

We’re at a point where your info isn’t even being used to target you. It’s valuable on its own.

And that’s the trade. You trade something of value to a service so that you can use their service.

Privacy is not important because we lost control of it a long time ago. It will take an act of Congress (in the US) to make it better, and there’s so much money involved that no one wants to tackle it head on.

Most dj software can do this, and many are free or have a “lite” mode. Check out virtual dj, rekordbox, and their competitors.

Every song seems like a slice of magic. It’s both perfect and naturally in-exact.

To start with, I don’t think privacy is that important. I think that most open source end-products aren’t good and they are only made better when money gets involved.

Not everyone that is technically adept agree with your statements.

Cracks are of two types: static or dynamic.

Most static cracks are fine. Cracks that are moving, changing, etc are dynamic and should be inspected by a professional.

I have an ADU that has a huge crack in the slab foundation. But it’s probably been there for 10+ years. I’ll need to spend $20k to dig it out and fix it, or I can simply mostly ignore it.

If an ip address is a house number, then a port is an apartment number.

You should have redirected your community somewhere else to begin with. It’s not your site. They make their own rules up. You played chicken with the Hoover dam.
