See my reply to the sibling comment: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30665186 I don't know about the current Samsung situation, but there were multiple phones by multiple vendors where whitelisting apps wasn't possible at all, or where it simply didn't work properly.

As DontKillMyApp notes, "the latest feedback suggests even when you remove an app from the restricted list, Samsung may re-add them later after a firmware update or when it thinks it is using too much resources". That is horrible.

Do I have some magic aura that causes Microsoft to give me at least a 12 hour warning about updates? Because I honestly can't remember a time this sort of thing (instant update, no warning) has ever happened to me with Windows.

I love Linux and do as much as I can for my job with it, or at least as close to POSIXy *ix as I can, but I hear these Windows stories and they just aren't in my reality.

Note: I don't have an overbearing company that pushes a slew of nanny-spy-ware on to my work machine - I have a friend who does, and I BELIEVE his tales of woe because I believe him.

Copying my mate’s work (hi, mjoc101) at uni taught me to type. Too many headaches looking at his printout, my screen, my keyboard, forced me to use whatever tool was available on the uni *nix systems.

One of the best things I ever did for myself. If you’re reading this and you don’t touch-type, learn. Now.

Perhaps 10 people might be required if you're doing everything on-prem including storage and networking. If you're using a managed service, then I find it hard to believe a company should drop 1+ million on labor just to operate a cluster.
Surprised it took so long to be honest. It was so good and unlike with other youtube alternative clients, you basically had almost 1:1 feature parity over the official app. Plus you had the option to disable almost all the recent UI changes easily and a sponsorblock integration.

It was much much more of a threat to Google than newpipe or less "normie" friendly alt clients, and it was getting too popular for it's own good. I'm wondering if the current Vance releases will keep working for a while, or if Google will try to target those too by breaking something in their backend.

A typical business org uses microsoft office for documents, and they employ programmers writing plugins to their microsoft office products using visual studio which also integrates into their internal .NET business services. I doubt migration would be easy, as everything ties into each other.
If you use an Arch-based distro, it's available in the Arch User Repository (AUR) [1]. With Aura [2], installation is as simple as:

aura -A radarr

Yes, you need to use the CLI to run that, but it's trivial to do so and a real package management system brings many advantages over exe installers. The AUR, inspired by BSD's Ports, is one of the major advantages of Arch. It's very rare to find a package that isn't supported.

Sure replacing a battery is less waste than replacing an entire device. But what percentage of devices needs replacing? That has to related to the extra cost for every device, not just the ones that break.

Two months ago, a homeless guy I have never met in my life, driving from Florida to Ohio, with a beater car, a mutt, and $300 to his name runs out of gas in Alabama. Walking in the dark with a gas can, the cops stop him, call an ambulance, and have the guy taken to the hospital for a psyche evaluation. He ends up in the hospital for 3 days. Car is impounded (he doesn't know where), dog taken to a shelter (he doesn't know where). While trying to find his car and dog, gets the cheapest hotel
(in my town) he can find while he tries to sort out the mess he's in. To help with the dwindling cash flow, he gets a job at Waffle House near the hotel. Come to find out, Waffle House wants him to start at their other location, some 7.6 miles in a neighboring town. He gets walking, where my wife, who has never picked up a stranger in her life, feels like helping, getting the guy to his job. Next night, while about to sit down to the juicy porkchop I have ever grilled, sidelined by creamy mash potatoes, my wife gets a text from this guy saying he's found his dog and would I please give him a ride across town to get Stevia back. I knew nothing about this guy, his life, his character, and so I hit my knees and asked God if I should help him. And I didn't get an answer from God. I didn't get a 'yes, go help' and I didn't get a 'no, don't go.' And when I don't get a clear answer from God, I know its Him saying essentially, 'it's your choice' So I chose to help (the porkchop could wait). I went and picked up this complete stranger and gave him a ride to the animal shelter, where he signed a promissory note to take his dog back into his care. He shed tears of joy and that puppy's tail was wagging like a Cessna propeller. The next day I help the guy go get his car from the impound. I say all of this not to boast of myself. I tell you this because there are other people out there in the world like me, and we love other people and love to have meaningful relationships.

Yes, I know. In my last corporate gig I was given a laptop with a bunch of MS crap on it. It was far, far worse than my normal setup (Ubuntu + OSS stuff + Google Docs). MS Teams specifically would consume so much memory that eventually other programs wouldn't open without a reboot (the laptop was kinda shit too).

I know what you describe is a thing. That doesn't make it a good thing.

Obviously. But I was responding to a particular argument. Why is "knowingly accessing records that you know you shouldn't have access to" so different in this case? There's no trespassing or equivalent; the computer itself was set up for public access.

And "protected computer" is basically all computers. Imagine if the records were on a kindle; that shouldn't change the legality and if the CFAA does so that's a bad thing.
So the problem is that I'm using Microsoft's recommendations (Sql Server, repository pattern, LINQ) for a Microsoft product, and the difference between an inexperienced team and an experienced team is that the experienced team knows what list of recommendations coming from Microsoft are actually the ones you should follow in order to bypass most of the footguns.

I think I'm going to go with frameworks that have the actual best reccomendations baked in, instead of the frameworks that recommend footguns.
Peter Thiel has a fascinating perspective related to top universities and their enrollments:

> "You could say that it's an investment good, where you're investing in the future, or a consumption good, a four-year party. I think that most parents and students think of college as an insurance policy, this ever more expensive insurance so that students don't fall through the growing cracks in our society"

> "It's not an insurance policy at all. It's a crazy tournament. It's a zero-sum tournament. If you were the president of Harvard or Stanford and you wanted to get a lynch mob of students, alumni, and faculty to come after you, what you should say is something like this: We live in this much larger, more global world. We offer this great education to everybody. So we're going to double or triple our enrollment over the next 15 to 20 years. And people would all be furious, because the value of the degree comes from massive exclusion. And what you're really running is something like a Studio 54 night club that's got an incredibly long line outside and a very small number of people let inside. It's branded as positive sum, everybody can learn, but the reality is that it is deeply zero sum."
Not all programs bubbles up those notifications when you are in full screen, and since default behavior is to shut down the computer after x minutes of the notification appearing it will look like the computer restarts out of nowhere.

Windows could have checked "if the user is actively using the computer do not restart", but no the computer just restarts in the middle of a gaming sessions or whatever.
It's a mixed bag, judging by TikTok videos. Some are 'on vacation', some are ex-mil with private contractor experience. Starry-eyed idealists (in Syria, these would generally be with Kurdish YPG/PKK), and those who'd enlist in French Foreign Legion (hint: you don't want to look at their past).
Definitely messenger apps that did it for me. Back in the AOL online CD days!

No one I knew could type, so I had to learn myself. By the time it was taught in HS, my habits and muscle memory weren't having it. I could type 'properly' but far slower, so I gave up.

To this day I've never had a RSI from typing (and some of the marathons were crazy!), and it's rampant among 'proper' typers.

Many consider a 12 hour warning entirely insufficient. Many consider an auto reboot that you didn’t initiate entirely unacceptable.

Where I live is subtropical, and there are times in summer where the grass seems to grow tall overnight. For the rest of the year you can get away with mowing every two or three weeks to keep it under control. It's the striving for constant perfection that bothers me, instead of just waiting till it needs to be cut. I know these people probably enjoy it and have a lot of pride in a manicured lawn. I just want to live somewhere with less of them around.
Agreed, I want my yard to contribute to the ecosystem instead of contributing to my “status” in suburbia.
Depends on the country the cloud provider is located in. I have had zero luck getting anything taken down by reporting to abuse emails or forms of Aliyun, for example.

I think the "Contain" podcast (https://podbay.fm/p/contain-podcast) got me into it originally. It has a lot of guests who reference stuff like "commodity fetishism" and I just started looking that up to figure out what they were talking about and this eventually led to Debord.

As an aside, The "Contain" podcast is great. Lots of interviews with lots of unusual intellectual people.
Maybe but Vanced was undeniably easier to use and transition to if you were used to the official app. I knew totally tech illiterate people using the app specifically because there was 0 difference with the official app. Once they just got it installed by someone they knew everything just worked and it was easy to update. Very very different from newpipe, which barely even has support for basic features like subscriptions.

I let my 3 acres go fallow for the last few years (half an acre I mow so my kids can play and not come out covered in ticks).

I wondered if it was helping a lot until I took a few walks in the grass and nesting birds were startled by my presence (I let them be after I knew where they were!). I don't think they'd had the chance to nest there when it was being cut for silage.

Yeah, I’m slightly skeptical about claims that the head monarch of the UK doesn’t work hard. They have to do a lot of ceremonial things and voluntarily go to a bunch of other more philanthropic/PR/outreach things, even well into retirement age. I am still dubious as the value it provided but it’s definitely a kind of labor, given that it’s essentially expected.

In the past they’d not only have to do these tasks but also actually rule. Being a ruler in general sounds like a pretty sweet gig but I’d have to imagine it’s similar to being an upper level manager in that your entire day is filled with meetings and requests for meetings.
To be clear, yes, on most PCs you can still upgrade RAM and disks, but on, for example, a Mac Mini you cannot, and other PC makers have been coming out with more "all-in-one" or "mini" designs that mimic Apple's lack of upgradability.
No my bad I clarified in my comment but it was in response to the author claiming Keypass as the worlds best password manager. Thanks for the links though.
Totally agree.
Sometimes I watch my live logs of auth.log of about 100 public servers. I am probably see 10 port scans or ssh attempts per second from random machines. Nothing to worry about if machines setup correctly.
More worrying are the people who try to break our public APIs. Either by letting it to crash, brute force operations etc.
The security flaws are often inside the software domain layer.
The one benefit of the higher tier is you get access to better GPUs

I think it’s the same GPUs as Pro. I’m actually surprised you don’t recommend buying a 2080Ti. The best GPU you get with colab pro+ is P100 which is slower than 2080Ti. If you can afford it, having your own GPU workstation is a much better experience than dealing with colab.

based on your post, not sure if this was a consumer drone battery like a DJI or similar with its own enclosure, battery charging dock/station, or a DIY hobbyist/quadcopter battery such as you might see if you bought a 6s 4000mAH lipo for a 8" FPV quadcopter.

for the latter, the people I know who build and use such things always charge their batteries in an attended environment in some sort of mostly-fireproof setup. one has a small corner of their tech/hobby workbench that has a few 12" ceramic floor tiles stuck to a box like enclosure open on one side.

since lipos are damaged and degrade if held for long times at 4.2V full state of charge, it's recommended for the health of the battery to only charge it almost immediately before you want to use it. ideally you would do that while nearby and paying attention, not leaving it totally unattended.

example would be something like this

https://chinahobbyline.com/shop/detail/RcCar-22.2V(6S)/CNHLg...

the quality of the battery charger also matters. and be absolutely certain you're using the correct goal float voltage setting, charge rate in amps or C rating, etc.

i have also heard of people who use a surplus steel ammo can (plentiful and cheap in many parts of the USA) for battery charging and lipo storage.
