Honestly, as someone who worked for AAA at the roadside, the Corolla is an admirable car in its own respects. Ive seen late 90s models absolutely abused and make it to the 150k mile mark. ... With that being said, if you try to tow a boat w

Which fs are you using nextcloud with? Is it as seamless as ext4 with Dropbox?

From experience, I’d describe it as an “emotional whirlwind”. The person suffering has a lasting, chaotic impact on the household. Similar to a whirlwind the very winds that start it can’t really be seen or predicted with ease.

This is encouraging to hear. I’m about 4 months out for a move to the hill country just west of Austin. Same situation, working remotely, homeschooling. Any advice on what to look out for? I’d still be grid connected, so I wouldn’t be relyi

For those wondering about the Pilgrims Progress reference, this is probably what OP intends: " HELP. Then said he, Give me thy hand: so he gave him his hand, and he drew him out, and set him upon sound ground, and bid him go on his way

Free software messiah? OP is laying it on a bit thick with that one.

short answer; it depends, but in general we are looking for holes in EM shielding to turn the RVs into paperweights. As a former nuke maintainer, the way I think they would do it would be to launch a titan with a full MIRV payload of W53s o

Out of curiosity, is it a community inspired by ‘The Benedict Option’?

Blaming it on community planning might be pointing to the symptom rather than the problem. I’d hazard that the real problem is intolerance born from individualism. In the American context we have a society such that people both clutch and i

Yelp is one of those YMMV apps. Absolutely terrible for smaller cities like Albuquerque, NM. I miss the days when their competitor, Urbanspoon, was really pushing the envelope on a great customer experience and review variety.

This sounds interesting, would you mind going into detail about this? Maybe a quick list?

>Won't their checks be for fair market value of their expropriate property? As someone who's been on the short end of eminent domain for a freeway offramp in north LA, nope. The city tends to hire their own appraisers with thei

None of what the author is writing about concerning the inability to revoke stateless tokens is particularly novel. We have the same problem with SSL/TLS PKI. Once a cert is revoked, there is no reliable way to ensure that its revocati

YEMV, but I am a consultant. Putting a bow on an engagement report is really not comparable to seeing your building occupied or watching your plane take off.

As someone who has worked both, I’d encourage you to reconsider what you’re really seeking in an office job. I did aircraft maintenance in the Air Force, paperwork and management in the AF, got out and hopped around with AAA as a roadside a

You’re right that passwords aren’t BFd often and that phishing is by far the easiest way. Regarding other methods: passwords are however, guessed, or stolen. If a hacker can grab the app databases store of passwords, they can preform offli

The downvotes on a comment like this reminds me of my days in university... downvotes are for unhelpful or incorrect content, not silencing people you don’t agree with.

Onerous? If you think 6-20 lines of code is onerous, you really should reconsider your career choice. Polygraphs can produce errors that may be used as a wrongful justification for an employer to dismiss your application. ...on the other ha

The developers of gone home have another game, Tacoma, that has the same walking simulator style. Excellent feel as well.

I feel like I’ve been warned about this point in time since I was in school: “This is where relativist, postmodernism leads.”

I really enjoyed it as well. I’ve never heard of Laphams Quarterly. If the rest of the publication writes to this standard, I think I’d find myself a frequent reader.

I'd argue against asking questions that have a clearly negative predicted response. Whenever a question is clearly skewed in one direction, the subject has a tendency to become suspicious and will often try to give the unintended answe

Your sample population sounds skewed ;). There are _many_ intersections of statistics in computer science. Off the top of my head: data analytics processing, anything in the realm of big data, computational theory, security timing attacks,
