CI/CD just became a lot harder when every container needs the users age verified. Not just configured, verified.

It's one banana, Michael. What could it cost, $10?

I guess there is a difference between "it's known to happen" and "a nation state accuses another nation state"

Buying extra sets of bed linen is easiest the best money I have spent.

When I was younger, I'd get away with changing less often and rushing the full bed linen through in a day.
Now, I can take a few days to do that laundry, and have fresh bedding whenever I want.
At least 2 sets of bed linen is a fantastic investment

I'd expect anything that has a battery which defines the lifespan of a piece of electronics to make that battery replaceable.

It's a funny read.

IMO, the bridge example is more like joining a maintenance team looking after an old bridge. I'm sure there could be good metaphors of the old guy that hammered 300 of the original rivets, and can tell an interesting story about toilet breaks 250ft in the air. And new government regulations both about bridges and conservation of protected buildings/structures that somehow clash or whatever.
Building a bridge would be more of a startup/new project.

It does feel like it takes the most esoteric circumstances, as well.
Same could be said for "Steve that has to dig a ditch" seeing competitions of plant operators doing back flips in forestry machines meant to scale mountains.

It's just that programming is a very accessible hobby that can transition into a career (how most programmers got a career, tbh), but is also the thing that modern business/industry/entertainment all depends on.

db13w3 has an alternative configuration with coax instead of power pins, used to be used for computer monitors. Even has it's own wiki entry.

Maybe that's why it's familiar?

A refurbished thin client from eBay. Or a refubed sff/usff.
They are pretty much the same price these days, and come with a case/PSU.
If you don't need the GPIO and special connectors that a raspberry pi has, sff/usff is going to be cheaper, has upgradeable ram&sata and some have pcie3.0 slot.
Running pihole (let's be honest, a huge reason people buy a pi)? Get a usff/sff, slap an SSD (probably the cost of a raspberry pi case/PSU/SD-card) in there and an intel i340-t4 4port NIC (this is extra. Can just use the onboard NIC), and install proxmox. Then run pihole in a VM. And now you have spare capacity to run a whole bunch of other fun things, with the safety net of snapshots and backups so if you mess up a config you can just roll another VM.

Shortly? It's happening already. I notice it when using Google and Duckduckgo. There are always a few hits that are AI written blog spam word soup

Oh, I love these deep dives, identifying tech debt, then how they refactor them!
And the new way of managing wires makes a huge amount of sense.

Nah, this bullshit is progress.
The root of this problem has always existed. Exploits have always been there, mistakes have always been there. These things are fundamentally unavoidable.
Acknowledging then, documenting them is new. Sensible disclosure is new. Companies paying for these bug bounties before they are publicly disclosed (so they can be fixed) is new.
And it's awesome. It's security. It's people working together for the betterment of everyone.

It would be amazing if people didn't make mistakes. But that isn't possible.
Openess, honesty and quickly remedying of issues is possible, and it's laudable.

So yeh, next time you get an annoying update that interrupts you're workflow. Please understand the work and reason behind the update. You can still be pissed at the interruption, but please appreciate the human reason for it.

Edit: I read "good" as "god". Idk if that changes anything

Double edge sword. "This guy is shilling" reports go rampant .

Hopefully, the Reddit bot trackers peeps will move to lemmy, and lend us their wisdom.
I learnt so many ways realise a poster or commenter was a bit from those peeps. Amazing MVPs!
And folks like kitboga taught me that spammers/scammers generally stick to a script.

It's gonna be an arms race! Hopefully we win!
