You still have a separate password that authenticates you without biometrics. The touch + passcode is nice because even if someone watches you enter your passcode it won't matter unless they can spoof the fingerprint reader too, which

Technically all framework 13 laptops always have four things plugged into it because the ports are modular such that the user can choose which ports they want. Unless you're crazy and leave the expansion ports unpopulated.

The institutions and trust that generations of Americans carefully built has been gleefully torched by cruel incompetents in the space of a handful years. The damage, physical and social, is incalculable. The unpunished crimes, endless. The

That's a fantastic point haha, I've never tried it myself.

It's funny to see all the commenters who didn't read the article closely enough or at all. This is basically the bluetooth device equivalent of "left S3 bucket open to public". That said, really cool work. I honestly tho

Effective as a social signal, absolutely. Not for anything substantive. Again, besides the point.

> but pretending nobody knows what is being referred to is not a serious argument The claim is that it's too broad to be useful. But as I said earlier, this is all besides the point.

That's what it means to you, most users mean "something liberal/progressive I don't like".

That's a fair point. Is it actually common for CEOs to live on a company property? I can see how transport would be company controlled.

No one can even agree on what woke even means. "Woke mind virus" 99% of the time is uttered by extremely unserious and contrarian people. It's a fantastic signal that screams "Ignore me, I'm not worth the trouble.&q

If you look at the graph I linked, you can see that the world average for that statistic has consistently been higher compared to the US, though the two series have been converging lately. So according to that data the US has not been uniqu

It's not the phrase that's the issue, but you knew that.

That phrase is on par with "chemtrails" and "vaccine truther" with its ability to vaporize one's credibility, if used unironically as OP did in those emails.

Fun, I was only confident in one answer but got lucky with a 3/3.

The people who doubted the sustainability of dot com era bubbles were correct even though the tech was actually transformational. Personally I expect roughly the same outcome.

They very much designed for collisions. They have an engineer discussing those aspects this video. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Tv5QwgQUMGY

Yes, standardizing on a handful of designs will help immensely, as well as building two or more reactors on one site to share the overhead costs between units. For example, building out more AP-1000s is really a no brainer. The first-of-a-k

They're already building this one. Nuscale didn't break ground AFAIK.

I mean the LWR fleet has proven to be incredibly safe by any objective measure with deaths per TWhr as good or better than wind/solar. The very incident you mentioned had a direct death count of 0 or 1 depending on who you ask. Industr

Yes but it is important not to confuse the source with the form. For example we can create hydrocarbons using solar/wind energy and that is still "renewable" even though hydrocarbons are involved. They are merely the medium o

Has there actually been a conviction purely for "viewing source"?

Ah so the implication is not that the prosecutor gave them inside info on the government's case's weaknesses but the prosecutor intentionally played the case suboptimally in hopes of being paid after the fact? If this was done wit

Can't a law be passed that states prosecutors legally cannot consult or assist in cases or for defendants they were involved with during their tenure as a prosecutor for X years after they leave their position?

I keep a W11 drive in my system (separate drive from my main linux system) for games and I find I haven't booted into it in months. And I know when I do it'll take probably an hour to get all the updates out of its system. Ugh.
