Google a ton of dangerous unchecked power, absolutely. But it's a documentation style guide that sets off your alarms? Get over yourself.

Where is it explicitly pushing a "certain political agenda"? Is there a footnote somewhere that says "these documentation requirements were sponsored by <x> for congress"? You surely mean implicit. What obligation

Not sure what gave you the impression I voted red or the authority to assert that I did. When a Liberal federal candidate came to my door last election cycle the electoral reform about face was the first thing I grilled them on. I didn’t ge

What exactly can be done? Vote harder?

You’re being needlessly combative and hostile.

Financial illiteracy is a little fucking harsh, no? We know we’re getting absolutely shafted.

Yeah it's a bit of a joke at this point, especially for a device marketed to developers. To me it screams cost cutting. If Lenovo and Dell can start to go back to taller displays then HP certainly can too.

I don't disagree, I'm just saying that Nvidia literally shipped normal Ampere cards directly to miners. Ethereum is tricky to build purpose built ASICs for.

by jagger27 4y ago
That's the current system.

This is sort of what Nvidia did with the cards they sold directly to miners. At the end of the day they're still GPUs (albeit without display outputs) so they could in theory be repurposed for work that actually benefits society. In pr

GPUs haven't been viable for Bitcoin mining for over a decade.

It’s simply not even remotely close to true.

Look at the narratives you’re regurgitating yourself in this very thread.

That’s brutal. I can’t imagine laughing in someone’s face in any circumstance during an interview, and especially not in this job market.

It's not, and it's worse since there isn't a PIN or biometrics keeping it locked. Keep one in a safe for emergencies (like losing a phone) that can also unlock your accounts.

by jagger27 4y ago
If you use FIDO keys as a backup second factor and keep them somewhere safe I'd argue that's strictly better than having a phone alone.

I really like PayByPhone! Thanks!

by jagger27 4y ago
I love this little app used in Ottawa called PayByPhone. It saves your plate and uses GPS to find the closest parking meter code. It’s much more elegant than using these clumsy machines, and it’s paperless since the meter maids just scan yo

Proof of stake for one, and the cult it’s built on. Shouldn’t need to be said.

All the .eth crap makes me gag and recoil, but DANE seems worth investigating.

I’ve been under general anaesthesia four times and I felt absolutely awful all but one of those times. The dosage in the most recent one was so perfect that I actually remember every moment after waking up from surgery, and I was awake enou

I just tested this on a JPEG. Flipping any bit in the first few bytes of a JPEG renders it unopenable on my Fedora system. I get that it's just a header and could probably be fixed, but there are consequences for bitflips, even on imag
