When you have that kind of problem, that's when you start burying cables. ย We still have way too many of them above-ground here, but theyve been chipping away at that over the years.

@lnxw48a1 There was a bit of a row in my area here when a Purolator driver who obviously couldn't be bothered even going to the door, ended up breaking a window trying to toss a package onto someone's porch.
-
Incidentally, I've made arrangements such that if I do pass away this whole shebang should be able to stay up for a while - though I'm not very optimistic that people would stick around without me.

"Apple's VP of Apple Pay, Jennifer Bailey, announced new NFC tags that will let iPhone users make purchases simply by tapping their phones against the stickers, without the need to download a special app first. "
That totally won't be exploited into the ground.

"Lenovo unveils first foldable pc"
Back in my time, we called those laptops.
-
@postmesmeric Or they're just doing the thing where they attach popular names with good associations to their attempt to praise the game because it gets attention. ย You know, like Dark Souls comparisons.

@bob This is ultimately exactly the problem I've been saying for a while: if you call everything "Nazi" then when you have real Nazis in your midst people aren't going to want to deal with them, because their gut reaction is to assume that when you call them a Nazi its the same blanket generalization as always.
-
@bob I'm currently in downvote oblivion in Imgur for telling people it's illegal to fly a Nazi flag in Canada however free they think their speech is.
-
@bob So like how the Liberal Party of Canada is the conservatives and the Conservative Party of Canada is the liberals.

@purplehippo @xrevan86 @kaniini Stuff like IME and UEFI has nothing to do with security and is pretty much the opposite thereof; it leaves a huge back-door through which third parties can cause uncommanded and undesirable operation of the machine.
-
@xrevan86 @kaniini People do so love their digital handcuffs.
-
@postmesmeric who?
-
Twitter has gone full programmaticall-generated div IDs to make it difficult to adblock elements, something I've been saying adblockers need to twig onto for years now.
-
@purplehippo I actually think that bigoted idiots should be allowed to spew their bigoted idiotic views so we can all mock them and tell them that they are stupid, but it's a statement of fact that stuff considered legitimate hate propoganda (which displays of nazi imagery in a non-historical/academia/education sense would be) is genuinely illegal in Canada.
-
Trust Imgur to be super progressive funtimes until you tell them it's illegal to display a Nazi flag in Canada, then downvotes ahoy!
-
@halcy Ginko biloba can help with that, speaking from personal experience
-
@kaspernymand That sounds pretty neat though I wonder how they'd keep it secure and private.
-
@purplehippo The chinese system is - as most chinese things are - an inferior copy of NEMA plugs, but that's a pretty sure fire way to distinguish a standards-compliant plug from a chinese one.ย ย If the left-hand prong is larger, it's compliant, if they're both the same size, it's chinese. ย https://community.highlandarrow.com/attachment/601784

In that situation, you're giving the operator the ultimate authority on what features they want to use; what they enable and what they disable, and they can then likewise control what they connect with and what they do not.
-
It's for that reason my grand and probably not entirely achievable in my lifetime (it seems to be drawing pretty short, lately) goal for postActiv is to have it speak as many different protocols as possible and to as many different social networks as possible. ย That requires programming the software to handle a variety of use cases where different feature sets are available, but that's hardly some huge insurmountable programming problem.
