Bold of you to assume he is sober enough to remember anything.

Right, the problem only happened on google checkout for me.

Does that properly keep metadata like location and other exit entries? I recall google takeout used to suck at that. I had to export using their web UI 1000 at a time or so back in the day to keep that info.

Kind of interesting how we feel more impacted by those parasites on a day to day basis.

It does actually, but against an invading army. There are reports of Russian fighters having trouble executing orders because the “enemy” also spoke Russian in some instances of the Ukraine/Russia war.

When there is a common language, the people sent to fight might notice there is more in common between them and the people on the other side than with the people in power that sent them there to die if needed.

If we go by personal experience, we recently had the time of several people wasted troubleshooting an issue for a very well known commercial Java app server. The AI overview hallucinated a fake system property for addressing an issue we had.

The person that proposed the change neglected to mention they got it from AI until someone noticed the setting did not appear anywhere in the official system properties documented by the vendor. Now their personal reputation is that they should not be trusted and they seem lazy on top of it because they could not use their eyes to read a one page document.

Technical specs don’t capture the bugs, edge cases and workarounds needed for technical subjects like software.

They actually do sell peel and stick “stainless steel” covers which should work well on a fridge since it has no parts that get hot in the front and sides.

Thanks for the info. Just got into Linux gaming recently and appreciate the first account stories since much of the internet seems kind of useless nowadays for looking up facts unfortunately.

Once you map them, do the settings stay on the controller itself? Dual booting or a VM with hardware pass through might be a (tedious) way to get that configured if so.

Maybe the GRADLE (Go Roll And Do Little Else) probe will come to the rescue.

(Not a real thing, just a Java-ism).

And stop buying from vendors that don’t allow full free local control (Google, etc.)

Smart local devices rock though. Its not the technology but the implementation for many IoT devices that sucks 🙂

They more often than torrents do have the wrong tags when its not English music. Took me way too many emails to google music and Spotify before they stopped screaming at me with ALL CAPS on one album and before removing the dots after album track names (1. Track Name), not to mention the ones named TRACK 1, etc.

Or insider trading.

People also seriously over estimate the effort required to install an android auto/car play stereo and backup camera. One adapter later and green wire connects to green, red to red, etc. most of the work goes to watching videos on how to do it to get a clearer picture. Not to mention that even for something on the fancier side you pay perhaps one car payment and you are done vs signing up for another 5 years of monthly misery.

E.g. see people from Venezuela here legally who got put into “illegal status” anyway due to orange man policies.

Not sure if you’ve seen this video: https://youtu.be/hksVvXONrIo

But it explains what I saw when typing on the later updates for my old phone.

From the Latin roots medi: middle terra: earth ain’t: nah bruh

Its in the middle of that earth thingy, and ain’t, clear as night.

If you leave it up to them, they’ll start burning that toxic cheap marine diesel to power the generators. Its not like its hard to get some states to give you exceptions for pollution with some key donations.

Noise pollution around data centers is very bad already based on some news reports, they’ll push the limits to save a dollar.
