NOW ALWAYS CLOSED OPEN-BUT MINDED

This is the most excited I’ve been about a NIST standard in a good while

Is there a “real” or primary manufacturer? I looked it up and it looks cool, but it’s an endless sea of knockoffs with very different prices.

What is that info based on? It just says yes or no but doesn’t cite any articles or sources.

I’ve been doing software development for 20 years and use a GUI (GitKraken) almost exclusively. I know all the commands, but using a GUI makes self-reviewing my code as I commit it a LOT easier. It’s also way less error prone and makes visualizing complex branching/merging operations easier to understand. It’s overkill if you’re working solo or with a very small team though; I regularly work on projects with dozens of active branches.

We called them “luggables”. They’re expensive, but having a server in a box with a monitor was worth it when you could lug it to a customer site and give a live demo of your server stuff. We were doing telephony stuff and you could put a $5000 dialogic pcie card in it and demonstrate call handling live. We can do that with software on a standard issue laptop these days, but the luggable helped seal the deal back in 2005.

There’s a whole world of culinary delight waiting for you when you realize that dairy isn’t the only flavor! I became severely lactose intolerant a long time ago. It was sad at first, but after trying a variety of Indian, Chinese, Korean, and other Asian dishes, I found it to be a lot more enjoyable. There’s so much more to life than using mountains of cheese and rivers of gravy to make something taste good.

Their game is just to try to make the ISPs liable; they don’t actually want it enforced. In fact, failure to enforce is the feature. They paint the ISP as complicit in the piracy then sue the ISP for hundreds of millions in damages hoping for a no-fault settlement. That’s a much better revenue stream than suing someone for 10k who can’t pay it.

It shouldn’t ever be bumpy. If your cast iron is growing lumps and bumps in the pan, you’re not cleaning it properly. A chainmail washcloth is a great tool for cleaning the bulk off then pan. Then use a non-lye soap, like dawn, to wash it. (Yes you can use soft soap on cast iron! It’s only lye-based soaps that eat through the seasoning.)

Try carbon steel! Same seasoning/cooking style, but light enough for anyone to handle. My carbon steel and stainless steel are my go-to skillets.

It’s not even that simple. If you skip ahead during an ad, the YT servers could just keep streaming you the ad content anyway. Their servers can ensure that the next 30s of packet data you receive is an ad no matter what, so the only way you can skip it is to wait it out and close your ears and eyes. Basically the same concept as ads on broadcast TV. Which means we’ll have to do a TiVo for YT… Gross.

JavaScript and TypeScript are separated? Umm, ok.

Yes, that’s the joke. But partner abuse isn’t a funny punchline.

It’s pedantic, but you are not your computer. They don’t collect (according to them) PII other than phone numbers.

I was diagnosing a network bottleneck at a customer site that didn’t make any sense. Literally everything had gigabit connections except one block of cubicles, but all the devices were connected to the same subnet router for that part of the building. Started tracing wires like you did and found that someone didn’t have a long enough cable when building the office and installed a 10 megabit linksys switch in the drop ceiling to connect two short cables. Rather than fix the cable, the customer just went to Best buy and bought a gigabit Linksys switch to replace it… A multi-million dollar operation is being held together by a $10 switch…

• Your Device’s Internet Protocol address (e.g. IP address), - absolutely necessary for anti-ddos techniques
• browser type, browser version, - necessary for UX to build a functional website for the browsers that customers actually use
• the pages of our Service that You visit, the time and date of Your visit, the time spent on those pages, - critical for determining what is popular and what isn’t to improve how the interface is designed and what parts are pulled forward and what parts are hidden in menus
• unique device identifiers and other diagnostic data. - useful for determining how often you switch devices and the performance and other experience metrics to drive making the app more user friendly

I work on web software professionally and this is a pretty minimal list that is completely justifiable for maintaining operations. If you can’t answer basic questions like “what are users doing with the app?”, you can’t make intelligent decisions about how to improve it.

There’s a lot of the same stuff here: https://legal.lemmy.world/privacy-policy/

I don’t know anything about this app or company so I’m not going to defend them, but there aren’t any real red flags here. If this amount of data collection bothers you, you really should stop using the internet in general.

Oh, you contributed to the kernel? Name every commit SHA.
