Cable. We have DOCSIS 3.1, which supports 10Gbps down and 1Gbps up. 35 Mbps up on a DOCSIS 3.1 network is atrocious.

Yeah, I have 1.2 Gbps from Comcast for $80, plus another $30 for unlimited data, so $110 total. Upload is still only 35 Mbps. It’s ridiculous but there’s no other options.

I’m not sure if he realizes how stupid that makes him sound

It’s really just games with kernel level anticheat that are a problem.

I’m not really worried about a Mpox pandemic as it only spreads by touch as far as we know. My concern is bird flu. We’re starting to see more cases of it infecting humans and if it turns into a pandemic is will likely be extremely deadly.

Interest rates. Then again, you can go for other more reputable brands that have good interest rates. I was making around 5% with Vanguard cash plus for some time. It’s based on money market though, so as federal interest rates went down, so did the rates for that account. There are smaller companies with slightly better rates, but IMO Vanguard is way more trustworthy than all these new Fintech startups and I know the FDIC insurance is legit.

Thank God my water supply is reasonably soft. Never had to descale my kettle.

The tech industry moves fast. Win 7/8 are ancient in tech terms

Are you sure that’s not your fence?

The lead adds sweetness though

Which is seemingly everything at this point. Disappointing how much stuff uses it.

Still 2 to 4x the cost of beans from other countries, more than the tariffs.

The Williams Formula 1 team managed everything in Exce until this year. The new team principal was stunned at how outdated their systems were and moved everything to more modern systems. The transition caused some major problems with inventory near the beginning of the season though. They didn’t have enough replacement parts for a single crash. Hopefully they can make better progress now with the newer systems.

The girl looks uncomfortable being next to it too

Yeah, if you look at RFK, he looks very uncomfortable with this. I doubt he actually ate any.

Why not?

Sched-Ext finally in mainline!

The ethics pledge was introduced by Republicans and signed into law by Trump himself in March 2020. Rules for thee but not for me…

Well, the Russian trolls aren’t needed anymore now that Trump won.

Most popular chili recipes have cocoa powder as an ingredient now. Adds a nice bit of earthiness to the chili.
