Tell me about it. As an individual user you absolutely CANNOT get support is some (if not many or all) circumstances. It’s really quite shocking

This sounds very much like the operation described in the book Number Go Up, which is ostensibly about FTX, but is really about a number of crypto operations which may or may not be illegal
Disk Utility used to have a Repair Permissions tool, at least back in the 00s. Not sure when it was removed
You will no doubt have noticed that with the proliferation of mobile Epos, tipping is increasingly being crowbarred into daily life over here too. For godssakes Just Say No
Yes. However there are downsides to Japan’s intensely high trust (and high shame) culture as well. Death by overwork is the one that’s most known in the west, although there are plenty of others that outsiders would…
It’s possible the last train simply parks there for the night. This would mean that you ride the same train back after this misadventure
I’ve never ended up in this situation myself, but I have many times lived on similar commuter lines. Hearing the names of those end of lines stations becomes a big part of your every day routine. In most cases I never…
This is entirely a problem of putting all of eggs in one basket. Or rather, only having one basket in which you’re allowed to put your eggs. The German pension system is already insolvent, and I suspect it’s not the…
Very very true. I self host synapse, and generally speaking the ability to bridge my ~3 most used messengers into one app (ElementX) adds value. However, the lacking features and bizarre feature disjoints between…
That’s not surprising at all. I don’t about the scientific apps you’re talking about, but I assume that their user base would be accessing them through academic site licenses. Music apps, however, would be predominantly…
kittysplit.com has had this feature set for a decade. I try to promote it whenever I can
Indeed. Although this tool looks like a way to work around those holdouts which refuse to provide an official customisation point
Also very enjoyable, Emilio D'Alessandro’s book Stanley Kubrick and Me
In my current and previous job, we talked about (and partially implemented) low level “contract” modules in order to avoid linking (and building) the entire module in order to share behaviour That problem was already…
Octal is very commonly used in Ansible playbooks, for representing file permissions
Funnily enough, in my experience Germany has the same (actually seemingly worse) issue as the UK; many people have poor home internet speeds due to the fact that the local (copper?) legacy infrastructure is privately…
See: The Banshees of Inisherin
The scope for a darkly comic Jony Ive product video voiceover parody on that though
That _is_ cool
I’ve thought the same. But quite anti-social for apartment dwellers
I think that, if you look at the first iPhone, the technology was not at all “mature”. The first versions had some decidedly undesirable workarounds in both hardware and software. There’s even an interesting argument…
One could argue that maturity can only be reached by allowing minors responsibility
Isn’t this just evidence of the Overton Window? The amount of promotion needed to push any particular cause is significantly lower than people intuit. And following on from this, once that cause has hit the mainstream,…
That is true. But I have to say that migrating my home server to using rootless Docker (which included all of the same pain), was a fantastic improvement when I finally got around to doing it. I could now migrate to…
