I found the implementation of the facial recognition app

Never found act useful. Where I work, we have our own self hosted instance, including self hosted runners and it doesn’t really improve the situation WRT debugging an Action.

And they never have a reason to do so other than shiny new toy.

Security. Jenkins has issues with every other plugin being a backdoor or version having some vulnerability.

If I could spin up a container and test the commands on the fly that would make things so much easier

You can, if you use docker based actions.

I can blindly type with an on screen keyboard, it’s not that hard

You can type a full actual sentence on an OSD keyboard including punctuation without looking at it?

Never had any of my phones with keyboards have a mechanical failure. I can type blindly on a physical keyboard, not so with an OSD one. Does the tap register? Does it predict into the right word? Who knows.

So long as one of those assholes lose, the rest of us win.

I’m afraid that we lose, regardless of which of the billionaires wins.

Yes, assuming a linear scaling, 33kWh would get you 506km with some percentage available.

I think it’s irresponsible of the Verge to tout an electric motorcycle’s range as “up to 600km”. It’s absolute fantasy.

Reached 310.69km with 7% charge on the 20.2kWh battery remaining during a challenge in London.

It took 16 hours though, so that works out to around 19km/h or 12mph. 🐌

They operate a business that charges for a service, and therefore have user accounts and payment data for those accounts.

100hours is quite a bit

They’d have done less damage going for the OF option.

Are you sure? That would mean reprinting a lot of books…

Patient: What is the latest, doc?
Doctor: I have good news for you after the biopsy, you have aggressive and incurable blood cancer!
P: *confused and crying*
D: It is very curable! 

Now, it’s all just bots talking to bots to learn how to sound human.

The great thing about that is that dead lithium batteries will have value

One day with my mountain of disused electronics, I will strike it rich.

There’s consent from the shopper and the retailer, so it’s not unethical

Two parties can enter an willingly agreement that’s ultimately harmful for both. For the shopper it will limit choice and for the retailer, they’re signing their own death warrant.

Right up until the moment that Comcast does a deal with Facebook to get its agent to not help you get a better rate and perhaps instead lock you into a more expensive contract instead. Remember Facebook’s business model is ads.

The other criticism I’ve seen levelled against them is that they fire almost everyone who works at a company they acquire to run it bare bones.

DirecTV’s screensavers will let a user create an AI avatar of themself by scanning a QR code on the screensaver

You are expected to volunteer your face. And interact with the ads. Because you are getting this device to watch ads. Apparently.
