Who knows. Gotta be at least 12 yesterday. That might be low. 4 entire hours without a TV, laptop, or phone seems unlikely.

Not sure I believe most of the other answers here.

Yank. Can second.

Brave of you to share your secondary can identity with us.

You’ve got to be the only person I’ve ever heard with positive things to say about the PDF format.

A blur of sensory experiences recorded only in volatile memory.

Also not having a phone to look stuff up and having to rely on looking stuff up in books was hell now that I think of it.

Oh man, not having a second device to look things up and fucking up your NIC modem drivers. Impossible situation for a noob, but somehow I kept going.

I’ve never had the urge to use a chat bot personally, but I’m pretty sure I’m in the minority. Lots of people use these things all the time for so much stuff we probably wouldn’t even consider.

I’ve worked with a few people that all but rely on these things to produce any creative work they have to do.

Maybe we run in different circles but I think a lot of people don’t even talk about how they’re using it.

I agree to an extent that their methodology might be somewhat flawed (we don’t know). But I’ll assume the analysts know what they’re doing to an extent. They seem to have at least attempted to make their algorithm somewhat intelligent.

That said, I’ve absolutely met software engineers that were basically a waste of space. That take weeks to do something I could’ve banged out in a couple of hours. Though it’s incredibly obvious, they somehow still keep their jobs.

Unfortunately for me, it’s very Japanese.

!stick@sh.itjust.works

yep

And we thought ID.me was bad…

A tradition alive since time began on Reddit. Nothing funny can be posted on the funny community.

I like exim a bit more but yeah. The dead simple solution is my goto. It can be tricky without any experience but there’s a ton of information out there.

And once you set it up your pretty good almost indefinitely.

In Montana it was separated into two confusing proposals. Ignoring the campaigning against it, as someone in support of RCV I had no idea that’s what they were talking about without looking it up.

IIRC, when Verisign had a registrar monopoly, they were charging $35/yr with 2 years up front.

Maybe. But you’d think the reporter might ask some of the relevant agencies. Or the victims they interviewed might mention it.

The Chinese government has imposed prison sentences ranging from six to 20 years for other Uyghurs who crossed the border illegally in 2013 and 2014, according to a conviction database we obtained from a public-security bureau.

So, a kid was born outside the system, to parents that were basically undesirables to the Chinese government. So they try to leave the country. Why would China fight so hard to get them back? I don’t get their motives with their people (Uighur and otherwise) that leave the country.

Curious why law enforcement wouldn’t be involved in this. Sure smells like a Madoff like thing in the background.

Imagine if Congress actually utilized the power they hold instead of constantly giving it up.

The Daily Dot was provided with approximately 794,000 usernames for what are believed to be the site’s current and former members, as well as the contents of the platform’s 221 public and 395 private chat servers. […] The Real World claims it currently has over 113,000 active users. If accurate, the site at minimum would generate upwards of $5,650,000 every month.

Jesus, why is this bullshit that large?
