To be more exact (in an excessive way), it uses the BIOS's code to set the video mode (INT 10h) which is probably a few dozen bytes (at least?) although I have been remiss at not ever reading them. And it depends on DOS…
It depends on order size. I think orders for one or two people over time you'd save close to 50% between deals and using points. For larger orders 20% off once a day is about the best you can do. (I'm my…
It's not always clear but notability is not temporary[0] under English Wikipedia's guidelines. Standards of what makes something notable have shifted over the years and sometimes the different is hard to tease out. 0.…

It seems like nothing changes in Android 14? Like at worst it's still possible on 14, whatever it is, but my impression from the title was that it's a new issue with 14 making me think I should delay updating.
There are admins on all of the Wikipedias under the WMF umbrella--each one sets their own rules for how admins are picked and how long, if limited at all, their terms are. I do not know what the process is for the…
As of now, https://elements.heroku.com/addons/heroku-postgresql says $0.01/month and their CLI as of Wednesday also said that. Of course, this feels like a weird workaround until December 1 since they also say that's…
There are traveling carnivals to things like state/county fairs, as well as just big empty parking lots of malls/etc for a few weeks, with significant g-force rides. So well over a thousand locations in the US.
Why do product announcements matter? Like I know many people like Apple's traditionally but they're just ads.
It's still $5 but they say on the signup page they'll waive it if you ask because you can't afford it/can't send the money somehow. So it's still very accessible but very, very few spammers bother to do either (a few…
Looked like no blackouts were needed yet.[0] > California ISO power grid peak demand hit 52,061 MW, a new all-time record. Still holding in EEA3 - no load shed. Conservation is making a difference. ow.ly/brMu50KBKHT 0.…
Probably not super relevant outside of the Washington, DC area (although maybe other regions have it), but a multiple localities formed a general commuter support program and one of their benefits you can sign up for is…
The vast majority of filers have no additional income to report that isn't already reported with their SSN. And the current standard deduction is big enough, many people won't have additional deductions. And all of the…
I'd say its hard to start as a new Wikipedia editor if you only goal is to make article X or make huge changes to article Y that is somewhat controversial. On the other hand, if you start in Wikipedia by doing simple…
It's just as easy for a game developer to say "eh we're no longer using that blockchain for game assets" or otherwise make your "purchase" (which isn't really a purchase) unusable with a blockchain based solution as it…
It hasn't failed. I'm not sure the final outcome of the current debacle but there's still nothing that matches Heroku. I've been using it professionally for 6+ years now and it just works more than most other things…
That is the default on many Linuxes' bashes but it's not universal and you can turn it on or off using HISTCONTROL: https://www.gnu.org/software/bash/manual/html_node/Bash-Vari...
As my sibling comments say, you can ask for it. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WP:REFUND Also it being deleted once doesn't mean it can't ever be made. May be https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WP:TOOSOON for it. Working…
The point is less visibility/criticism. Since this is confirming pretty bad news (the attackers had access to the environment variables.) The concept of a Friday night news dump is a fairly well-worn, but basically…
There doesn't seem to be anything different now than 6 hours ago. So posting it after 8pm EDT/5pm PDT Friday seems very intentional.

You don't list any so I'll bite, I guess. What "cryptocurrency" company isn't a "scam" as basically defined in the post?
Python, I believe, is getting this feature in 3.11, which is due out in October. But the first 3.11 alpha release got some news talking about it: https://docs.python.org/3.11/whatsnew/3.11.html
