Oh that’s great. The NSA has definitely shown it can be trusted with backdoors, after all.

(Massive /s in case it wasn’t obvious.)

Man, what is even happening at Intel? Apple and AMD have made them look absolutely pathetic, not to mention their own processors grenading for fun.

Yeah but then look at how the knockoff Magic Keyboard cases, which provide nearly the same functionality (with the exception of pass through charging) cost less than a third of the price.

It’s absolutely insane what Apple charges for that thing.

That’s what distributed computing is, after all. Like Folding@Home.

Weird. I’ve not yet seen this on my Teams. It would piss me off if I did, but then again Teams pisses me off all the time anyway.

Yeah. Apple is plenty evil but not having ads is, generally, part of their “premium feel.” There are exceptions to this, unfortunately, especially recently.

But I definitely don’t regret doing a factory reset on my LG TV and hooking up an Apple TV.

Oh, it’s Popular Mechanics, so I can safely ignore the article and assume it’s nonsense.

Thanks for the reply! I hope something similar gets developed. As much as I like multi-toolhead solutions, the nozzle-changer seems so much more compact.

I would argue that Vorons are more capable than say a Baubu, but I digress.

Depends on the Bambu and what capability you’re after, doesn’t it?

I know Bambu is evil, but I have to admit the H2C with its nozzle-changer is sexy. Give it a couple of AMSs and you get 7 materials with no purging. That’s a capability I don’t think a Voron has (though please, correct me if I’m wrong).

Fool me…you can’t get fooled again.

It’s because he was unstuck in time. Slaughterhouse V was actually autobiographical.

But it stinks so good!

From the article:

A U.S. District Court in September struck down the Trump Administration’s cancelation of $2.2 billion in research funding to Harvard, restoring critical grants supporting lifesaving research. But with two major federal grants ending in the near future, Yankner isn’t sure how forthcoming new rounds of funding might be.

That’s an encyclopedia’s job.

So they said, “Nuh uh, we’re gonna lock it down so you can’t!” Or am I misunderstanding?

Wow, what happened to OnePlus? They used to be so cool. Hell, the first one ran Cyanogen.

Yeah, the advertising stuff always bothers me. NordVPN is not unique in that sin, but it’s still a sin. Since I know why I want a VPN that misrepresentation doesn’t affect me. I sought them out, not the other way around. But if they want to build a large audience of people who don’t, like, pirate content or use public WiFi or want the Meshnet, they have to come up with bullshit to scare them with.

I’ll check out your link, thank you!

NordVPN

Genuine question, how is NordVPN complete garbage?

I did some research before re-upping, and they consistently test well. They don’t keep logs. Meshnet is awesome.

As far as I can tell the worst thing they do is lie about how a VPN makes using the internet “safer” which probably isn’t true for most use cases. But all of the VPN companies do that, it seems.

True, you make a good point.

I did know I was referring to an apocalyptic scenario rather than an emergency one. The giveaway was that I was replying to this comment:

Yeah… if I am trying to reach people tens of miles away during The Apocalypse, I am already dead.

🙂

What about after surviving the initial disaster? During the rebuilding? Or the ongoing survival?

Long-distance radios are useful as hell in stuff like The Last of Us.
