Main difference there being that switching cities means probably switching ISPs. You can absolutely carry over your IP address when you move between the same provider, if that's part of your service plan, and that may well happen with some ISPs even without it being part of your plan. There just isn't really much of a need for people to carry a static IP, except for some businesses, and I'd say the main reason is that people don't visit websites by memorizing and typing in an IP. They do memorize and type in phone numbers.

I also browse exclusively all. I only bother blocking the non-English and porn communities. Looks like that's 315, for me.

I'm with Arrowhead as well, none of this shit is coming from them, it's coming from Sony. The most you can criticize them for is partnering with Sony in the first place.

They do, it's called an IP address.

Phones get numbers assigned to them by a cell service provider, in order to communicate on their network, which is basically the exact process for computers and IP addresses.

If you're asking about the equivalent of like a SIM card, in the computer/internet world, that's handled at higher layers, by digital certificates. And again, the process is almost exactly the same, except they don't (usually) get put on physical chips.

Unironically, yes. Everything we had 20 years ago, but worse.

To over-simplify, making sure that they don't accept donations, grants, etc. from companies or other third-parties that are involved with Israel. The article gives some brief details on how "divest from Israel" is the approach that Brown University actually took here.

I feel like this is the first time I've EVER heard of a fine being "all the profits you made from the fraud." Is this for real? Why the hell is it Razer, of all companies, that's getting a proper punishment?

Was intrigued until step one of "Getting Started":

Install Node.js 20 LTS

That's gonna be a "no" from me.

I had the exact same question, did the exact same thing, and had the exact same response. EVERYONE does this, it's infuriating. If you're going to have a public-facing info page about your project or product, you need to assume that people know NOTHING about it.

The XZ exploit was found because some dude was investigating performance issues in a system, and noticed an unusual amount of time being spent in SSH processing, IIRC.

So, you're a tech nerd who wants an addictive game?

Factorio.

Also Satisfactory, but I'm not sure how well it runs on Linux. Fairly sure Factorio will run on just about anything

Windows 11 has ads NOW, in the enterprise install I'm provided at work.

Gotta love a guy shitting on the corrections system actually working for once (at least, if the article is to be believed).

Gotta be Breath of the Wild, for me. Taken together with Tears of the Kingdom, the series' storytelling and immersion has never been better, I think, and as a game, Breath of the Wild was the tighter, more-satisfying experience, overall.

Wind Waker is a veeerrrrrrry close second. I think it's the most-polished entry in the whole series, in both categories. I'm really not sure what I would change, if given the chance.

So, wait, Mocrosoft is finally giving us a way to fully-disable automatic Windows Updates?

No profit motive.

MLB 66

A couple of video streaming services, Hulu, which includes Disney+, Discovery+ and Netflix. That totals up to like $50/mo or so.

Other than that, it's aaaallllll independent creators, through Twitch or Patreon.

For work, I have 2 monitors, and my docked laptop. The main two monitors are hugely beneficial for software development, as I can reference design docs or requirements while writing code, or I can have the debugger running on one screen, while the app runs on the other.

The laptop screen is where Teams and Outlook sit, so I can glance over at messages from the team, and maybe respond, without having to swap around any of my workspace.
