Interesting, but at the very end, the author mentions a processing fee, and the application says the fee is $50 per bill!

That's a good catch about Dynadot using Cloudflare. Ideally there would be a setup to avoid having the domain name registrar use a different DNS than me. I'm more concerned if an over-zealous algorithm or employee shutting down an

My understanding is that "Best Practice" is to use different companies for different services (not to have all of your "eggs in one basket") in case something goes wrong with one company and they take everything down. Th

OkCupid sold out to Match, that's why they became crappy. (OkCupid also had an article saying why you should never pay for online dating, which coincidentally was taken down the same day they were acquired by Match.) Also, OkCupid gave

I prefer this easy solution: Take a photograph of the website, develop the film, send it off to a transcription service, received the printed copy in the mail, take a digital picture of the document, run it through OCR software. As simple

Flashing brake lights are super annoying. Flashing lights are attention-grabing and thus distracting when you are trying to observe the whole scene and not just fixate on the vehicle in front of you. Or if you are the type of driver that f

A 12 year old used Jayco might be vastly better quality than what Jayco is pumping out these days.

Supposedly Airstream was sold to one of the RV Giants and quality has been deteriorating. Basically an RV made by the smaller, newer companies that you've never heard of and have to do some research to find, are building quality stuff.

If anyone is thinking about this, please do research into how crappy modern, mass-produced RVs are built. Lemon Laws do not apply to RVs (except maybe in one state). Many RVs can easily spend most of a year waiting to get a single item half

There's a bug. I don't know how to replicate it, but a week ago the keyboard popped up while I was in (slow) motion (I was trying to select a previous saved destination) and I tapped on a random key to see if it worked, and it di

Edit: also reddit (from the Digg exodus) Though considering the reddit creators were pretending to be different users to fake engagement, it wouldn't surprise me if they also led the charge in the Digg exodus.

I'm renting a 2025 Chevy Malibu sedan in the U.S. right now, and for the driver door, I have to pull the handle twice. The first pull unlocks it, the second pull opens it. I think it is digital and not mechanical. There is no mechani

You just have to build it and have it ready on the sidelines for when something big and egregious happens that a bunch of people are willing to switch at once. Kind of like how BlueSky got its influx.

True, I think I could do up to 5% when I worked as a cashier ("team leads" could do 10%, and managers for anything more than that). No ever asked me, but I probably would have tried if I knew it was under 5%.

If an item isn't being scanned by barcode by a cashier, then it can probably be negotiated.

Isn't "Sign in with ______" (Google/Facebook/Etc) discouraged, because if for whatever reason Google/Facebook/Etc decides to ban your account, you can no longer log in to those services?

The article is poorly written and not clear. It sounds like you're suggesting the author let Chrome save his Coinbase password and Google synced that to the attacker as well? > Google had cloud-synced my codes. > That was the ma

Coinbase STILL doesn't freeze user accounts for a token amount of time, 24 hours or so, after resetting a password‽ Part of the blame should be levied on Coinbase if this is the case. (I'm assuming this guy at least uses unique

It seems like those are very easy terms to follow, that he agreed to . If someone who did some serious stuff, couldn't follow easy terms, it is cause for concern.
