This is brilliant.

The resolution was that the DNA didn’t belong to anyone involved in any of the crimes. It belonged to a woman who worked at the factory that made the contaminated swabs.

It’s also a good idea to gracefully shutdown anything essential that isn’t using a read-only rootfs. I’ve got my NAS configured to shut down after 5 minutes, but my firewall and frigate server keep running until the battery is almost dead, then safely shut down if the power still hasn’t come back yet.

Is the same thing that happened to academia. The people submitting papers are paying for the privilege, the people reviewing them are volunteers, and the cost to read them is out of reach for many. The people making money are just maintaining the website.

Very fast, too!

This guy’s got upper management written all over him.

Yep. It’s a “write once, read never” storage medium.

The exact meaning of “4WD” seems to depend on manufacturer. Toyota’s 4WD works fine on hard surfaces because the differentials are normally open, which makes it a lot more like AWD. The center differential needs to be locked for it to behave like your described.

So do I, but there are enough people running out of date software that old vulnerabilities are still being actively exploited.

You have any idea how many people don’t update their computers?

I read about a fungus found near the reactor in Chernobyl that seemed to be using the radiation as an energy source, so it seems plausible for a plant to evolve to absorb RF energy.

VMs have vulnerabilities, if you really want to be safe use a dedicated air-gapped pc, or don’t run it at all.

Maybe they don’t count the founder as an associate? I read it the same way you did, though.

Next time, see what a local camera shop would charge to rent some equipment so you can do the shoot yourself. It’ll probably be less than $75 to rent the gear for a day. It takes a lot of experience to be a good photographer, so you’re paying for their time and expertise, not their equipment. Modern cameras do a lot of the work for you, so you might be happy doing it yourself. On the other hand, for something like a wedding I would hire a pro if there’s room in the budget.

How does this work, are all students required to put a phone in the locker? What about kids who can’t afford a phone?

And what about kids who get a second phone to put in the locker so they can keep their main phone?

401ks directly replaced pensions for most Americans. It’s disingenuous to claim they’re “in no way comparable.”

A pension, maybe, but Social Security is in no way comparable to a retirement fund.

By that logic, a pension is in no way comparable to a retirement fund, which is a rediculous statement that no one would agree with.

Unlike most other taxes, you only benefit from social security if you’ve paid into it. And the amount you receive is proportional to the amount you put in. Practically, it’s far closer to a retirement account or pension than a tax.

Rage bait. Yes, the app is creepy, but the first actual quote the article gives is in this paragraph:

And then there’s the phrase. Post after post across the app uses some version of the same line: “he collects women like Pokémon cards.”

None of the quotes truly support the headline, imo.

Also, that app is creepy af and should probably be illegal on privacy grounds.

It’s not a threat, it’s a plea.
