That video is classic LTT; interesting idea terribly executed which leads to incorrect conclusions. The latency difference doesn’t matter to humans, but wired is faster.

If you’re thinking about it with the mindset of what the minimum is, you’re not a prospective customer.

Who was promoting sugar, exactly? This is an extraordinary claim that requires extraordinary proof.

So cars=bad∴cars->ASD? Is that your argument?

How did you calibrate the meter for the changing temperature and pressure? Most CO2 meter designs are extremely sensitive to pressure changes.

That would require us as a society to develop concrete solutions to determining who can be trusted. That’s obviously impossible, so we’re stuck with the process we have.

Other mechanisms of sending media are entirely irrelevant to a discussion about using MMS and the technical limitations of the MMS spec.

That’s not what’s being suggested at all though. The problem with sarcasm is it’s boring but feels oh so clever to the person who writes it.

Which really underscores that all of the MFA stuff is actually about security. Because of course it is.

Huh? Sending MMS between any two devices is pretty clearly limited by MMS.

What are you basing this on? The US government gets told no about things it really wants literally all the time. Edit: this is also not the federal government, state and local government has even less juice than the little the Feds possess.

Sounds like you meant fairly explicit goal, not fairly explicit plan.

What do you think those have to do with SMS/MMS?

I’m curious how you did that, given that iOS doesn’t allow 3rd-party SMS/MMS apps.

Why would you think that discovery would have to be an SMS/MMS thing? Since you’ve never used an iPhone, let me explain the experience. When you type in a random new number it starts off green. If the user uses iMessage, once you finis

That sounds like hell. If you think that carrier interop is bad now, wait till everyone is using a different matrix provider with different optional features turned on or off. At least today there are some barriers to SMS spam, matrix would

Locks that most people are willing to spend the money to buy are purely there to keep honest people honest.

I was traveling a lot for work at one point, and I decided to test this out. I would ask for a new key at every hotel I stayed at, and make a point to not tell them my name unless they asked. They almost never did.

Interesting, when you did so did you know that you were assuming liability for the damage caused by the landlord being unable to access the property in an emergency?

Now that busted pipe to the hot water heater has been pumping water into the unit for an extra hour, and you’re on the hook for changing the lock in violation of your lease. But cool story about the cylinder.

First, BMW has thousands of patents. They also have trademarks, copyrights, and trade secret manufacturing processes. Second, if you make a non-BMW you can’t legally sell it as a BMW or you’re committing fraud. Third, most of the reason tha

So does Teams, and if you want to 1-1 someone just click their name and the call icon. Add more people with two more clicks. Everyone on the bridge will see you’re on hold in the main call, which prevents people dialing you to rejoin and wa

If you’re at the limit for the middle capital gains bracket because of one-time gains and you can afford to wait, you should definitely defer liquidating assets to the following tax year.

You should reread their post, libraries usage is incidental to what they’re talking about. Their point, that first sale should apply to ebooks, requires a fundamentally different approach to DRM. If I own my content and can put it on any de

Huh? In the United States books have inflated by -0.1% per year since 1997, compared with the overall economy which inflated at 2.46% per year on average during the same period. Because of the stiff competition. Unless you mean specifically

Can you expand on this point? Having no copyright being a leading cause of industrial expansion seems pretty tenuous. Especially given that they now have copyright and other countries also had booming economies at about the same time.

Proposing that any rights holder would accept a solution where there is no technical control preventing arbitrary copying is an extraordinary claim which requires extraordinary evidence. I’m not saying it wouldn’t be cool, I’m saying it’s n
