Yup, this is Season 3 Episode 1 of CSI Vegas, titled: "Revenge is Best Served Cold."

For some languages this can make sense, but I think most languages aren't suited for installing things, manipulating the filesystem, etc. I think of scripts as the middleware between the operating system and the shipped code. The code

I applaud the author for the depth and detail - this is fantastic. Well done!

As bad as Experian is, at least the baseline product works for free unlike TransUnion.

I have a tip for Amazon shopping related to these weird brand names: Do not buy anything that will go in or on your body. Doing this significantly reduces the likelihood of counterfeit or poorly packaged goods.

Mumble - "a free, open source, low latency, high quality voice chat application" that I can manage the logs and certificates for. Kinda the only choice because Discord doesn't have an equivalent setup/mode. Pi-Hole - DNS

It's not the video, but it certainly has some of what I am looking for. Thank you; it's appreciated.

Very related to this, I've been trying to relocate a video about "making a sun in a box" where the creator does the following: - goes over power and lumens, basic wiring for a bare LED. - details how the color of light matter

Say that to the acidic invasive Eucalyptus leaves eating away at the paint on your car, or leaving stains on your paved walkway, or choking out your pretty wildflowers. Or maybe take it up with the Bigleaf Maples clogging up the storm drain

It's sometimes a bit more nuanced than that. For example: For a number of years Palo Alto has had a law about gas leaf blowers (Ordinance No. 4634, I think). The "easy" way around it is to use an electric leaf blower. Where d

My father is a licensed landscape contractor in Menlo Park (the same place where this law change was written). For 30 years I have watched (and helped) him with jobs almost always involving small off-road internal combustion tools. He works

You're correct. The Youtuber is James Stephanie Sterling. She called it the "Youtube Deadlock" mechanic. Though the trick seems to be less successful now.

I also have this cube as part of a set. As a far as desk accessories and toys go it's unique and a fun thing to show off. If you get the set that has the copper cube beware that the copper one will oxidize and discolor if you touch it

Does anyone know of a teardown like this for more recent chargers (ie. the "top rated Amazon chargers" or "Best Buy Specials")?

A friend told me a story similar to this where a psychologist helped a patient with their taxes and credit card debt, the patient was immediately more functional as a result. The crux of it being that academically this is the "wrong&qu

Discord has not yet "won" for me. Until I can host it myself, use my own certificates, and control the server bitrate and logs I won't use it. For now, Mumble serves all my needs and works great. It is by far the lightest and

0 for 20 on the most popular and recognizable video game music, like the Super Mario Bros theme song. Seems to only work with top 100 yearly tracks with lyrics.

Funny you mention Sony -- Linux support on the PS3 turned into a big deal. ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OtherOS ) Historically, other game consoles could be used a "general purpose computing devices," such

These are great points. I'd like to add some more to them: On minified source code, Extensions/Add-Ons are allowed to be deployed with minified source code as long as you provide the unminified versions to Google/Mozilla duri

As a developer who has worked with reCAPTCHA in the past and as a diehard Firefox user, what likely happened here is a form of shadow banning. You're moving too fast; your mouse and mouse clicks are "too good" to be human. Tr

I mostly agree. The author of the piece didn't go into much detail about their medical needs at the time - perhaps they were a high-attention patient and didn't know it? Hence my call to educate oneself about their own situation.

I felt the question and answer to be a little flippant, which is fine, but hear this: Sometimes there are reasons, very genuine reasons. I've been recovering from a recent stay. I, too, was interrupted frequently - every 45 minutes in

Yes! Mineral oil cooled PCs in aquariums have long been a thing-to-do (but it's very messy).

Exactly. They sort of hide it. I'm in IT and order these all the time for engineers and sales folks; it's much preferred over the new models. ;)

I'm in the SF Bay Area and after looking at traceroutes and packet loss it looks like something at PAIX has failed between Comcast, Hurricane Electric, NTT, and others. A coordinated attack could be a cause of something like this, but

Just expanding on your idea here - Japan also has a million times more vending machines as the US and they're full of Pepsi/Coke products, fruit juices, energy drinks, and even ice cream or beer. At 2am you can get your carb fix a

I really like this demo; it makes sense and was stepped through beautifully. I would love to see a 'weaknesses' explanations about blockchains though, like how 'truthiness' is generated and speed of verification and dist
