Your wish is granted.

As announced earlier key board members are also resigning.

Have they rotated the deck chairs on the Titanic, or is this a meaningful change?

It’s about guys who deliver money to banks.

But chiles are hot!

I use the stock keyboard. It’s terrible, but so are the alternatives, plus there are privacy concerns.

One nice thing I will say is that the word suggestions are actually good in the latest iOS since they are now based on an LLM.

Bit other than thst typing is so inaccurate taht O have to go back and corewxt nearly every word.

Swipe typing showing hello very much either. (Swipe typing doesn’t help very much either.)

It’s a PR issue not a legal one.

This draft spec was eventually published as RFC 9562. Compared to the previous spec it adds versions 6, 7, and 8, plus best practices guidance.

Basically, there are a bunch of UUID alternatives that arose to fix the problem that UUIDs are bad for use as database keys in large tables (here’s the perspective of MySQL experts Percona). A bunch of these alternatives are actually linked from the RFC, which I haven’t seen done before. Version 7, in particular, is meant to address this use case.

Successful malls have an Apple Store, Tesla, and Louis Vuitton, which tells us something about who can still afford to shop there.

Apparently there’s a recipe on that page. Here’s the same page without the crud: https://www.justtherecipe.com/?url=https://houseofnasheats.com/brazilian-lemonade-limeade/

Sometimes it’s the only option or the preferred option.

I haven’t. Maybe someday I’ll be willing to, but not today. It’s a hassle and extremely intrusive to provide my bank statement and photo ID to a company whose security I don’t trust.

That’s usually how I pay if someone requests money. Venmo is owned by PayPal but my account there works just fine.

I thought about that, but they ask for enough info that they’d be able to identify me. And then they’d probably ban me. At least right now I have the option of restoring my account, even though I have no intention of doing so.

You live in a city, but most of the store chain’s customers live in the suburbs where gas is a major expense and fuel perks are a big incentive to shop at a particular store.

The store isn’t trying to promote fossil fuels. They only care about customer loyalty. Besides (they might rationalize), their customers have to buy gas somewhere so why not from us?

The one that’s not shown: Standalone Passwords app

True, it’s a private (not local) IP. It could easily have connected to a remote system, as their proof-of-concept did.

This code execs cmd.exe and pipes output to and from a hardcoded IP. That’s pretty weird. What’s running on that IP? How does the extension know something is there?

It looks like VS Code has no review — human or automated — or enforced entitlement system that would have stopped this or at least had someone verify it was legit.

Are you sure about that? Dial tone is a sound you hear before dialing, not the sound you hear when you press a key.

Their findings included an extension that opens an obvious reverse shell.

The Fisker Ocean has solar panels on its roof. It can add 4 or 5 miles a day if fully exposed to the sun.

Not enough to matter. It’s a gimmick.

If you don’t have an EV, you may think that EV owners are worried about range, and they’d welcome any increase. I have not found this to be true.

It’s more like having a car that starts every day with a full tank. You’re never going to burn through that in a single day. Pretty soon you don’t care about range, efficiency, or pay much attention to the battery meter. It only matters if you’re on a road trip, which for me is a couple times a year.

I would not want to give up a nice full-roof sunroof for a few extra miles a day.

Thanks. That’s good to know.
