Good thing I cut my shower short by two minutes to avoid wasting the natural gas and 5 gallons of water I would have used otherwise! Seriously, I get that millions of people doing a little thing outweighs 1 Corp doing a big thing, but man is it demotivating.

Yahoo. MFA was not enabled. It is now.

Bad actor found a blind spot for me - a "celebration of life" invite, sent from an acquaintance. I clicked the link and it asked me to enter the credentials for my email provider, which I foolishly did. (In my defense it made some sense because it appeared to be taking me to the home page for...

I sure don't understand the use case for this. Web search? Browser, it's always open anyway. Local search? Voidtools Everything or F-search . Why would I want to mix the two?

Imagine being the head of the FBI and getting hacked.

Same, my 4070 super has not had any issues.

I switched to Mint in October and I don't really see going back to Windows. I booted into Windows to update my guitar multifx in December, and again last weekend (three months later) to get some settings for audio plugins that didn't come over to my Linux install of my DAW (Reaper) and to keep...

This. I bought an Axe IO interface from IK Multimedia in 2019, and had to register an account for the drivers and firmware. Annoying but whatever. It has worked great but I switched to Linux late last year, which they don't support, so I'm selling it. Turns out I have to pay $20 to unregister...

Completely unrelated, but I replaced foobar2000 with Musicolet a year or so ago and find it superior, to the point I wish there was a desktop version.

Gonna be hard to make a profit when no one has a paycheck. Maybe AI can be a better customer too.

Not that I'm aware of. I did a factory reset before updating the firmware, no change. Also spent a month and $200 for a guy in NJ with an ebay store to refurbish the Bose amp, no luck there either. Glad we didn't spend $1100 on an oem replacement, at least. Both of them went at once which...

I updated my wife's 2017 in December, it's easy. Also replaced the console / USB port doodad, which wasn't as easy due to routing the wires but was fine with patience and a few scrapes, replaced the screen to get rid of the ghost touch problem, and did the mp3 hack to enable touchscreen in...

It felt I was too close to the car in front and hit the brakes emphatically, and the car behind me was fairly close as we were merging from one freeway to another at about 10mph. Rude, not dangerous, but clearly irritated the other driver.

How were the nanny systems? I got extremely frustrated with my Cooper SE yesterday when it brake checked the car behind me due to overzealous or insufficiently computed collision avoidance. I can turn it off but have to do that every time.

I'm not clear on how first responders would be able to access an interior release if the exterior release is not functioning. Consider a scenario with incapacitated occupants in a burning car. First responders are not necessarily trained and equipped professionals - it's very likely they are...

Same. I feel like back then, marketing knew they were competing with bathroom breaks and snack acquisition and worked to make their ads entertaining. The few ads I see now seem to have realized that they have a captive audience and are often flat out insulting. Anyway, the idea of paying...

Looks very creative but too frenetic for me. The either/or decision making is fine but putting it on a timer makes me feel frantic and like I might not be playing the game "right". Silly but that's me.

Multiple commenters have pointed this out: because they (the foragers eating the wrong things) don't know any better. It's like if you're foraging for blackberries in a new area and you see a berry that looks extremely similar but turns out to be pokeberries or privet.

A long time ago I had a discussion with an African American coworker about chitlins. Chitlins are animal intestines, usually or maybe always pork, that have been cleaned and boiled. The idea of eating a literal poop tube no matter how well prepared seemed off putting to me so I asked him why...

If wired is an option, you may be interested in an Ergodox.
