Choosing an instance limits you in two ways:

1. The rules of what you're allowed to post

2. The other instances that they choose to federate with (typically a block list that is public)

If you find yourself limited, common advice is to create more accounts (alts) to work around those limitations

I've also seen people host their own instance and get around the lack of federation (but you limit the visibility of your posts from organic traffic)
The FB guy demonstrated how thoughtless his mental model of successful companies was, and eventually got what he deserved.

Google+ worked differently from the rest of the company and definitely had a few all-nighters and all-weekenders (those folks had haunted eyes) but only because people thought they could parlay their efforts into promotions or more influence at work.

Amusingly, Google+ got turned into a commercial product (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Google_Currents) which is being slowly wound down. The only successful Google+ community i ever saw was inside google (in the internal corp Google+) and even then, almost nobody who joined after ~2018 even knew it existed (instead, most people just used memegen). My current employer had it, and it was a ghost town.
I didn't remember this little stories where sometimes so cruel.
Binary is very simple you need to memorize 0 and 1 and that's it, screw Newton from one of comments above, right?
If they are in competitive markets they will have no choice.

Check list for a car crash in 2022:

- have the latest and greatest iPhone

- crash only in apple approved countries, because apparently car crashes are specific to countries.

- improve your crash experience by buying an Apple Watch ultra for better detection.

— pray to Tim Apple that the algorithm detects your crash.
Apple tells carriers what to do, carriers tell Google what to do.
I wonder how many people ignored the email claiming they were being given $10k. There is nearly a nearly 100% chance I'd mark the email as spam, wonder how it got past gmail spam filters, and never think about it again.
> and (somewhat) work with multiple devices

I was hoping for AirPods which synthesize audio from all of your devices using spacial positioning... maybe next generation
Wait, are you suggesting that technologies that may be bad for news media profits get unfavorable coverage?
> Do you see the underlying desire for Web3 (true democracy) being served anywhere else?

Yes. Peer-to-peer networks have existed long before Web3 ever became a thing. Bittorrent worked fine without a blockchain. IPFS works fine without a blockchain. Soulseek and Limewire didn't need blockchains, same as Napster.

The idea of digital currency is definitely geek pornography, but it's a much more complicated issue in the real world. All signs seem to indicate that the further a protocol distances itself from money, the better chance it has at succeeding in the long-term.

It's funny, when I try to search for Pixel 5 crash detection Google tries to autocomplete it to Pixel 5 crash loop.

The thing about Apple is, and has been since its inception, that makes devices that actually work in a way people can benefit from it instead of ticking items on checklists.

Mind you, Apple makes bluetooth earphones that reached business since larger than some of the most sexy and famous businesses out there. These bluetooth earphones have just one feature that is outstanding: They work as expected, most of the time.
There are so many small carriers out there that resell data from partner networks. Often one of these MVNOs can be the best deal to pick up a few dozen gigs of local data that support hotspot. Many may not even have an app, stores or much customer support infrastructure. They sell these in kiosks and cigarette shops all over the world. THese carriers will not be supporting a sim-less phone any time soon and it hurts any frequent traveler to lose access to them.
Other than that being a terrible name (it's almost impossible to be sure what it does without consulting documentation), I personally do prefer fewer implicit/overloaded operations.
I think that's surrounding which vehicles will support the CarPlay dashboard.
Apparently, the reason Apple dropped support for iPhone 7 is performance on the new lock screen.

It’s more likely the fact the iPhone 7 only has 2GB of RAM and two cores, not to mention missing the Neural Engine, the image processor and other features on Apple’s latest SoCs that iOS 16 requires for some of its features.

Most of major features of iOS 16 would have to be removed to run on an iPhone 7.
> The way they do it just kicks the the can down the road.

No, it accepts that some wealth may require estimates, eventual corrections, and occasionally court resolution. (The doc cites an example of a $2M painting hung in a kitchen being deemed non-household goods.)

The "there's an edge case, therefore it can't work" argument is hard to sustain when there are countries making it work. The Swiss handle paintings, private companies, and presumably IP (I can't find specific details in here) in their system.
Yeah, we must prevent DoS at all costs. It seems that Python should not have integers at arbitrary size for "performance" reason in the beginning. Aren't int32/int64/int128 nice? Number of operations are all bounded. We should stick to them.
Tangent but let's stop referring to it as a mere ad blocker, it's a content blocker - it's even a very useful and impactful accessibility tool in that capacity.

Non-citizen adults don't have a vote and they all have to pay taxes. You're not suggesting that all resident aliens should not pay taxes?
Personally, I absolutely hate Bluetooth headphones

At this point in my life, I want fewer things to remember to charge, not more.

My wired earphones will never run out of “battery” in the middle of a flight.

I’m a complete grump about this stage of the headphones cycle.
I rely on Otter pretty heavily these days. 100% agree that recording and sending the transcript to meeting attendees without their knowledge is a really bad move from several angles.

I work sales calls set up with Calendly and Otter joins them all. These are very technical so normally it's fantastic - EXCEPT if we start talking early or the prospect doesn't follow the invite and never joins the call, then they would get a transcript of my team's chatter. I learned to not allow Otter to join the call until everyone is in attendance

Whats more frustrating is that you can't disable this auto-email "feature" unless you are on a business plan of some sort. But I have a paid plan through the iPhone app and apparently can't convert it to a business plan associated with my company. So no good way to disable it

I get the network effect of referral business but sharing private conversations without consent is not the way to achieve it.
Not to mention this is a nice backup for if I accidentally break my InReach or the battery fails or something.
That's why algebraic effects are cool, right?
The consulting provides it with a veneer of legitimacy.
I’m not sure, but a while ago they announced a sort of expanded CarPlay where things like the speedometer, fuel gage, etc were shown in the CarPlay format, so I assume that.
It certainly is from the perspective of Syrians and Palestinians living within Israel's claimed borders. What democratic rights do they have?
I have this same problem, have had the right one replaced under warranty and the entire set replaced under warranty, no luck. If I periodically clean the inside of the case with rubbing alcohol it helps mitigate the charging problem. Then I just end up in a world where left ear connects, right ear nothing... unpair, re-pair... right ear connects, left ear nothing... unpair, re-pair... I used to use them mostly for trail running and it would take me 10-15 minutes to get them functional before every run. Now I just skip them, too frustrating.
Do you mean that particular adblocker is not impacted or is Brave going to maintain support for the APIs dropped by Manifest v3?
If I was designing this, I would only have a small set of "SKUs" with minimal customization, and then go all out on economies of scale.

If 10% of houses switched to a single "system" with a small set of SKUs, such that everything is optmized for manufacturing, shipping and assembly - you could reduce the cost of construction significantly. This is basically an extension of the IKEA model for the house itself instead of just the furniture.
The Things Spammers Believe – A Tale of 300k Imaginary Friends
It finally happened. Today, I added the three hundred thousandth (yes, 300,000th) spamtrap address to my greytrapping setup, for the most part fished out of incoming traffic here, for spammers to consume.
I think the worse part of having been a crypto skeptic for such a long time is the I told you so moments. I'm not engaging in schadenfreude, I'm not happy about seeing people lose money. As much as I hate the crypto fanatics spreading nonsense I also hate shit like /r/buttcoin for pointing at people's misfortune. My dad paid off his house about a decade ago, but now he's underwater because he mortgaged it to buy crypto. He wanted help and I said no, I can't help you, its no different from a gambling addiction. You need therapy not more money.
Does Elon, as the Richest Man in the World, even need to know? Seems to me his lawyers need to know and that's it.
Won't Apple just provide a dongle or adapter?
Interestingly enough that's what I miss about my Bose. The in-ear QuietComfort earbuds I had were _far_ more comfortable (and stable in my ear) and the noise cancelling was so far ahead of my AirPods Pro that you wouldn't even consider the two devices in the same genre.
Globalstar also has spectrum and the capability to have ancillary terrestrial ground systems. Apple could just buy them now and roll out its own cell network.
I've spent time in both the UK and Mexico this year and simply picked up a local physical pre-pay SIM card. No local pre-pay eSIMs were available. Hopefully that will change in time but currently the only options appear to be expensive global eSIMs which cost 5-10x as much per gigabyte.
I'm continually stunned with both the quality and variability of modifications made to StableDiffusion in the short amount of time in which this model has been available... and I think we're just scratching the surface of what's to come.

Bra-freakin'-vo to this chap.
Ah! thank you.
With universal vote by mail, expats now don't vote too much earlier than voters in the city. For the June 2022 election, voters in SF received their ballots on May 8. So I think you got yours one or two weeks before that?

The deadline for deciding who could appear on the ballot was yesterday, September 6th, for the November 8th election. So ballots should start getting printed today and mailed to expats some time in the next week. So I think you'll get your ballot mid-to-late September.

We're currently on track to publish the voter guide on October 1st, but I'll see if we can get it up any earlier!
My laptop is old but I really want to try this. What options do I have to use this? Speaking as a total n00b can I install and run this on a EC2 instance? What is the minimum instance type (like c4.xlarge, etc) recommended for running this?

I wish there was a ready-made way to get access to the UI with all the options enabled and a fixed monthly price with hopefully a RESTful api. This is so amazing. Great work!
There are plenty of other bluetooth headphones that don't suck...

I have literally zero problems with these: https://www.amazon.com/AfterShokz-Open-Ear-Wireless-Conducti...

They work everywhere - across my phone, laptop, personal laptop, hell - even my nvidia shield tv. Across Win/Linux/macOS/Android/iOS.

Connect just fine - play just fine. Reconnect just fine. Pair just fine.

I'm glad you like the Airpods, but damn is this some crazy bullshit thing to be claiming.
Yes, that is the architecture of a modern offline SMPS. But the rectification losses are minimal compared to other losses in a PSU and there are options, like active rectification, to improve efficiency in that block if needed.

I will concede there may be advantages to centralizing power factor correction. But on the flip side, components like circuit breakers, connectors, and switches for high voltage DC face arc quench challenges that their AC equivalents basically don't at domestic line voltages and currents due to the zero crossing.

In-home batteries are a case where the benefits of DC wiring may outweigh the drawbacks though. That is also the basic situation in those datacenters I mentioned, where power to the racks all comes from a UPS system.
Right now I see 1 comment (yours) that says it worked fine , and way more than lists problems and issues

eSIM seems to be good for the carrier (who doesn't have to ship anything or manage a database of SIMs for sale: provision on demand) but not for the customer.

Personally, I will not buy anything that doesn't offer an option for an actual SIM. SIM? Yes! eSIM+SIM? Sure! eSIM only? Nope.

It's like these services that ask "for your safety, please enter" (whatever, say the SSN): in general, when it says that, it's the opposite: it's for the safety of the service provider, putting the user at risk, and adding inconvenience.

Just like "The Democratic Republic of..." old joke: if it needs to say so and to add that in its name, it's likely neither a democracy nor a republic.
Most ladies, and many men like myself have small wrists, so the "small" apple watch is already quite large compared to normal watches for most woman or men with small wrists. The "large" would over hang on many of those people, so you can only imagine how a 49mm would fit for most woman and people with thin wrists.
Unfortunately, that sets the tone for the rest of the article.

When we talk about UBI, we have to ask, where does the money come from?

The answer likely involves inflation, maybe deficit spending. An answer like that makes UBI unsustainable.
I view open source as a key question around maintainability, and access to talent with experience.

When I see open source projects getting relicensed, I automatically assume there is some monetization campaign underway which exploits the community's contributions.
Thank you - I asked because their price did not drop in the EU.
I'm personally just miffed that it's enabled by default. Reminds me of something Microsoft would do (Hey, I see you connected your headphones! Want to launch Groove Music?)
Calling yourself “effective” before you’ve been effective instead of after is a poor strategy for success.

I've definitely experienced the ear-piercing scream of a siren on the other end only to be told by the person I'm talking to that the ambulance is like eight blocks away. I remember that as far back as my LG Chocolate.

But what AirPods are doing is either a dramatic escalation of that or something different altogether. Typically when I encounter this problem, I or the person I'm talking to will hang up and call back without AirPods, using the regular phone mic or speakerphone or whatever, and it will be significantly better if not completely resolved.

I think the headline is misleading. The author was offered a standard corporate severance deal, which had a standard non-disclosure, in return for a very standard (even low) severance package. He was not offered money for silence on his specific story.
You are partially mixing cause and symptoms. My burn out was totally erasing my motivation until I did not want to get up anymore. The cause was IMHO too much subconscious stress on multiple levels that kept my anxiety too high. But it is true that what follows is a downward spiral (which makes the statement true again: you however are unlikely to fix it by adding motivation)
The system of the Roman Republic had term limits, no corporate lobbying, and no political parties, and they still had all kinds of corruption and problems. My theory is that any political system will inevitably inherit the characteristics of its constituent parts, human beings, who are almost always corrupt or corruptible.

It's not due to coincidence that government corruption by the rich has been unsolved for thousands of years, across completely different civilizations, cultures, and places.
> I don't see how this is so hard: just let us download the CRLs

Previously, you couldn't do this, because not all CAs published CRLs.

Beginning October 1, you will be able to just download the CRLs, because Apple and Mozilla are requiring it.

It's therefore unclear what your beef is,
Inevitably when people discuss Bitcoin someone shows up and calls it a ponzi scheme.

Defi is just the market hearing that over and over again and saying, "OK. I heard you like ponzi schemes..." They all already have humans throughout--- if nothing else, in the form of the people walking off with the windfalls.

The fact that the tech keeps blowing up is mostly just an artifact that the tech is just there as obfuscation for the fraud that underlies and motivates the enterprise. The technology is not well thought out because it doesn't need to be, it's not managed by people with high technical expertise because people with such expertise see through the schemes and can find better things to do with their time than to help rip people off. Given the economic or centrally trusted points of failure-- a competent and ethical engineer would usually tell you adding smart contract gunk to these schemes is an unacceptable source of risk without meaningful benefit (except perhaps as pretext to hide from law enforcement) and so the systems the world gets are the ones built by people who were less than competent and ethical.

Apologies to the rare few things under that banner that aren't fraud -- but they're part of a lemon market where they can't be distinguished from their more fraudulent compatriots, so that kind of guilt by association is inevitable.

I'm using Firefox with moderately aggressive ad blocking and privacy settings. Almost everything works, and the few breakages that I encounter are usually due to the blocking/privacy settings (i.e. they'd happen the same on Chrome if I configured it similarly).

The only thing I actually have to start Chrome for is (ironically) Microsoft Teams.

I was looking at that, the iPhone 8 (supported) has a 6-core CPU, 4 high efficiency cores, but also 2GB of RAM in the plain iPhone 8, 3GB in the Plus. So if it's anything, it'll be in the GPU or the 2 extra cores, that marks the critical differentiator for performance.
Same. I would immediately mark it as spam. Surprised anyone still clicks on these.
I was really hoping for something that actually explained the history behind PAM and why it is the way it is, because PAM doesn't really make a whole heck of a lot of sense - usually when that's the case, understanding the context it was developed in goes a long way to explaining why it was done the way it was. Definitely not what this article was, though.

I'm not a doctor, but why would you want a doctor who didn't go to college?

I was pre-med in college and quickly changed after I realized I didn't actually like biochem all that much. Imagine what that would have looked like had I been attending a medical school instead of a "normal" college.

It sounds like what you actually want is an NP or something like that. Which is fine, there are plenty of those around.

I've had this issue too, and I think the root cause is that the physical connection between the AirPods and the case can be unreliable/spotty -- likely a light film buildup on the contacts.

I've had success from "massaging" the offending AirPods in a circle pattern while they're in the case -- which I think rubs the contacts together. Anyway, I haven't had the problem for some time now.

To be clear on one thing, the entire point of decentralization is that while Unstoppable is 'distributing' these domains, once distributed they no longer own them and can in no way whatsoever do anything with them, even if they wanted to regardless of the consequences.

Decentralization in the web basically turns many "digital products" into something closer to their physical analog, in terms of ownership. What I mean there is that if you buy a Widget from the Widget Mart, Widget Mart no longer has any ability to impact that Widget in any way whatsoever. It's the same with these domains.

You buy it, it's yours. Somebody can only take it away from you in the same ways that they might take away your Widget.
