Several years ago I had a brief stop at some airport-- maybe Atlanta? But they had an indoor smoking area. I smoked at the time so I followed the map, and you could see the smoking area from the balcony on the floor…
As always, "the internet" here means "the six biggest websites". The small web still exists, largely exactly the same as it always has. It's just not linked on reddit/Facebook/google/etc. The old internet is still…

That's also a bet and also remains to be seen
There are no more docking stations. The dedicated dock port died many years ago, and everything has been USB-C/Thunderbolt ever since. Which really isn't too much different, docking ports were by and large PCI with…
I'm a lifelong Arch user (btw) but I would also call out Manjaro as a less full-contact way of using Arch. It's got a slow and stable release cycle, it's fairly reliable because it stays behind the bleeding edge like…
Genuine question, how is everyone else dealing with giving agents elevated permissions? Obviously the answer is "don't", but some things are pretty harmless, like journalctl and dmesg, and are pretty useful for…
You know what? I think this is dead on. Like a lot of us, I grew up in the 90s tinkering with Windows regestries and internals. That knowledge only ever really helped me with Windows systems, and it really only carried…
Since this is the top comment at the moment: CTF stands for Capture The Flag. Personally I have never, ever heard that concept referred to by the initialism. Granted, it's almost never come up in my circles, so... shrug
My new refrigerator has WiFi, but no screen. They clearly could not come up with any real feature other than "get an alert when the temperature goes too high". Everything else could be done with the built-in seven…
I see you are making a critique of society, and yet you participate in that society! Isn't that strange? I am very smart. /s
I think there's something important in the fact that we've spent the last ten years or so making software as locked-down, unfriendly, unusable, and outright user hostile as possible. And now suddenly everyone has the…
The Western world rediscovers dietary fiber. More on this modern miracle at 6.
There are actually three states: - A bug exists and nobody knows - A bug exists and some people know - A bug exists and everyone knows As an outside observer, there is no way for you to determine if a bug is in state…
Trade schools and apprenticeships exist. Trades can pay very well and frequently require nothing more than on the job training. You think you need college for the same reason you equate "job" with survival. These are…
