I've had reliable success by using http://neverssl.com to force a basic HTTP connection for kickstarting a public WiFi portal login, although I have to disable NextDNS (iOS) too.

> Claude Code and I spent months on the cat-and-mouse. To me this a tell of AI - it should read "cat-and-mouse game." I think AI sees the cat and mouse as individual objects joined together with a hyphen rather than knowing it&

I once worked for a company where they operated in the red for 95% of the year as they paid for project material costs up front. The CFO was quite open about how finances worked in our niche sector. A client would pay an invoice and the bal

Same here - splashed out crazy money upgrading my PC to play HL2. After that moment I switched to consoles.

Ethics will depend on the developer's needs at the time, and there is a big difference between ethics of the developer themselves and their employer's ethics. They may take a less ethical job to put food on the table for their fam

It's a psychological addition of being stoned and slightly detached from reality - no different to people munching pills every weekend at a rave or drinking enough to be tipsy (or wasted, if that's your thing) It's escapism,

Employment at a below market rate might be the only job some people can get due to events in their past i.e someone with a criminal record that puts most employers out of reach. There is a large talent pool who want to get their lives back

I've been caught out a few times after learning a new artist I liked was AI. The time spent listening to AI music _could_ instead been spent listening to something created by a human. That is what pisses me off the most!

I have "friends" purely through common interest in music, and the same for bicycles too. My oldest/life-long friends have very different musical tastes...and some can't even ride a bike :)

I have little interest in doing a DJ set in public but I'll spend hours crate digging for new music and mixing circular black slabs of vinyl for nothing more than the love of the craft.

These days many DJs are booked on their social media following not their skills or musical knowledge. The market is completely flooded and promotors cannot practically sift through the sheer volume of mixes published online -- so they go by

It's no different to a mortgage being in negative equity as the home owner would still be in debt after selling the property.

Gambling and weapons (or "defence" depending on perspective) are two industries I refuse to work on principle. On my deathbed I want to look back on life and feel I've made a small positive impact on the world.

Pi-hole operates on your local network. NextDNS performs the same thing but on the public internet, removing the dependency on a VPN to the private local network.

+1 for NextDNS. Been a happy user for a few years now and introduced many non-tech friends/family into the world of 99% advert-free internet.

Sponsored segments is no different to Netflix (and other producers) selling "product placement" in TV shows or films. If anything they are far more subtle and effective as the viewer isn't usually aware. I remember once watc

I learned wheel building many years ago from Sheldon's website and that lead to many great memories fixing other racer's wheels around camp fires in my 20s. A fantastic resource!
