Correction: it has already happened twice.
Both of these "don't really have that in America" routinely happen in San Francisco, which gets semi-aggressive during gridlock and has a good amount of cyclists and scooter riders. Waymos are known to not do well…
It's a limited edition collectible. Some people will buy it.
I don't mind some astroturfing. But the amount of AI usage on that site, and the general polarization of opinions, is making it increasingly unappealing.
"Before the October 7, 2023 attacks, the total size of Hamas’s military wing (the Izz ad-Din al-Qassam Brigades) was estimated by the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) and intelligence agencies to be between 25,000 and 30,000…
The Volt Gen 1 used the engine primarily to run the generator, although the mechanical coupling ability existed in Gen 1 as well. Gen 2 optimized the system to couple the engine to the wheels whenever it is efficient to…
The current generation Prius gets 57 mpg. The most efficient non-hybrid one can buy today is in the mid-40s.

There's plenty of backup services and cloud solutions. The article mentions Borg and Restic, others like Backblaze are more consumer friendly. Which needs do you have that aren't met by any of these tools?
I left Evernote when it became increasingly bloated and clunky as a product (on iOS at the time), and as they started tightening the screws on the free plan. My current generic note-taker is SimpleNote. It is…

That's the nice part about having your own country -- no more systemic discrimination or prohibition on owning land, or joining professional guilds, or having some king being upset about his debts and organizing a small…
In the age of AI, interchangeable content farms that earn pennies by filling 80% of the screen with ads are dead. In fact, the user hostility of those "blogs" is what pushes people even further towards AI interfaces…
Yes, the antisemites are rejoicing all over the world. Let's not confuse negativity and hatred with genuine popularity.

You can't rely on UDP experience.
Did the flow ask them explicitly for scopes? If not, then they should know there are no restrictions. It also seems, from the post, that customers were "long asking for scoped tokens" so who and why assumed that this…
