So I wonder if spacetime has a kind of "entropy" where it can be stretched-out but never put back exactly how it was. Possibly explaining inflation.

Beginning around 2014, slots were taken away by CFO Tim "F Coolness, Make Em Pay" Cook to overprice RAM and SSDs so prosumers couldn't upgrade them ourselves with commodity parts. Edit: They took away the SD card reader for a

It's nice to think interdisciplinary, but it's also easy to succumb to connecting dots that aren't really there and make up new dots when diverging from concrete data, experiments, and the real world.

S mode seemed like an improvement, but their ecosystem is much more diffuse and wild west than Apple's to get all devs signing their work and putting them on the MS store.

Weren't they a high-flying Palo Alto email scanning startup?

That's a drop in the bucket. You can't change the RAM or the SSD, recover data, or change things without proprietary tools. Also, no schematics. And two programs Apple launched for independent retailers and consumers are PR stunts

Welp, I'm not buying a MBP for the foreseeable future no matter how good they could be if the product line were turned around.

Report to POTUS on foreign adversaries, overthrow democratically-elected leaders, steal information, and drone American teenagers and innocent families. They're not a law-enforcement organization. Edit: They're an international pa

Yep. It reminded me of GEB: magical mental fapping lost in the clouds.

Amazon's Fire TV and Echo Show are like Samsung TVs: inviting a dystopian wall of chumboxes into your life to hound you with ads.

It depends if Twitter's censors agree with the views expressed or not.

The frightening thing is how fragile it seems. If you're going to concentrate risk on AWS, it better be essentially flawless, stable, and highly-redundant.

If you want to find a bunch of criminals, make an anonymous currency exchange and wait patiently. It's not necessarily the case, but it's plausible.

That's been most of my life. Welcome to perfectionism.

Alexa (jokes and flash briefing) is currently partially down for me. Skills and routines are working. Amazon customer service can't help me handle an order. It us-east-1 is out, then half of Amazon is out too.

I barely escaped the 2018 Paradise Camp Fire. It hadn't rained for 200+ days, was very windy, dry, and cold. I think NorCal, and much of the world, is slowly desertifying if climate change continues.

Biomes are changing and it's our fault. Planting trees won't virtual signal our way out of climate change when there's too much CO2 in the air, not enough rain, and too much heat. If I hear any more about planting trees someh

The problem is branding. They should've changed their name or they get all they deserve.

Their business model should just shift to a 100% chumboxes model of clickbait. It would be more honest.

BuzzFeed can die a horrible death for all I care. Their rep is forever one below Maury Povich. That decent shops like TruthDig went under because of arrogant owners/investors while TD lives is a travesty.

It depended if you were a bleeder or not. My barber gave me some salted fish to pack in there, so it really didn't bleed all that much.

Terrible idea. I supported a dozen Xserves back in the day. They were crap because they weren't designed for production use. They used nonswappable, commodity retail IDE drives not meant for 100% duty cycle operation. Fixed power suppl

No one but a Dukakis dork is going wear anything remotely like this in public. If they're not reduced to contact lenses or something unobtrusive, then they're not an improvement over Glass, but a step backwards.

Stealing IP addresses wouldn't make a good Hollywood blockbuster (unless it contained action sequences with big name stars), but it could be more lucrative than armed bank robbery.

Ah, so: Class B: $3 megabucks Class C: $13k I know a couple of guys who own roughly a dozen class B's and live off the fees from leasing them. One of my old companies (now defunct) still holds a Class C that isn't being used and d

"Executive communication facilitator" ranks up there in terms of BS, but not that common. Most common would be truck driver, for-hire driver, salesperson, lawyer, or janitor.
