This bit me too. If I wanted a mouse-driven app, I'd use the GUI. I don't understand why they're trying to replicate that experience in a text environment.

And the footgun (although I haven't seen a smoking footgun yet).

Which are typically city approved, licensed, and taxed

I had this happen at the Shenzhen airport a few weeks ago. They confiscated my Apple MagSafe battery because it didn't have the CCC mark. From the looks of it, they were confiscating a lot of them.

It was a missed opportunity for someone to not have opened an approved power bank store just past security.

If that's the case, it's surprising they keep pushing Shorts so hard on the Apple TV app, because watching vertical Shorts videos on a TV is a uniquely terrible experience.

And a variant of ACCESS.bus lives on as the extremely widely adopted DDC that is a part of HDMI, DVI, and VGA.

I thought I was the only one with this problem.

I can still remember how to play the original Doom after all these years (and where all the secrets are!) but the modern editions have so many controls and weapon modes that if I don't play it for a month I don't remember how anything works.

I think that's referring to the NT "Shell Update Release" which was an early beta of the Windows 95-style start menu that you could install on Windows NT 3.51.

This is covered in the linked article as well as Dave Plummer's video referenced therein. The Crowdstrike driver is specifically marked as critical to starting the system and so disables the last-known-good mechanisms.

Here's the section where Dave talks about it: https://youtu.be/wAzEJxOo1ts?si=aCX8pOTP0D_IRNAx&t=670

If you use a wildcard cert, then only "*.domain.net" is recorded in the logs, not the actual hostnames you're using.

Not just credentials - account balances, account numbers, etc. There's a big difference between your browser history recording that you opened your bank or healthcare provider's web site and Recall recording everything that appeared on the screen while you did.

People might use Incognito mode to browse porn, but I imagine it's a lot less common when looking at other sensitive sites.

If that were the case then it should have affected Intel-based MacBooks too, and that does not seem to have been widespread.

have access to the station without getting Russia involved.

Except for the Russian engine on the Atlas V.

I had the same experience as you on a trip to the Netherlands. Ironically, the only place where it didn't work was the Apple store in Amsterdam. I don't know if that was an actual technical limitation, or they were aware that it was not yet available in the Netherlands and so didn't even let me try with my phone and its US credit card.

They could live outside the city where they would be connected to a local septic system instead of a central city sewer.

The Home Depot stores near me do this really well. Since they also sell a lot of bulky and/or oddly shaped merchandise, their self checkouts each have a wireless, handheld barcode scanner that you can use to scan each item, often without even taking it out of your cart.

He did say "When people say I changed the culture of Boeing, that was the intent, so that it’s run like a business rather than a great engineering firm" and he does seem to have been successful at making it into something other than a great engineering firm.

In QBert it "knocks" when the QBert character jumps off the edge of the grid. First, there's a sound effect that sounds like QBert falling, then a short time later a loud knock that sounds (and feels) like hitting the bottom of the cabinet at the end of the fall.

Yes, it's referring to the key with the Office logo on Microsoft keyboards, which sends the Win + Shift + Ctrl + Alt combination, regardless of whether Office is installed or not.

This was a fascinating read. One other interesting fact about the carbon in our bodies is that the sort of diet that a person eats over their lifetime can influence the ratio of the different isotopes of carbon in their body due to different plants preferentially using carbon 12 or carbon 13 during photosynthesis. You really are what you eat.

One reason given is that it was delayed so it wouldn't interfere with travel to the 2024 Olympics in Paris.

This argument makes me smile as someone who is old enough to remember when Emacs stood for "eight megabytes and constantly swapping".

The YouTube app on iOS does the same thing, putting "Chrome" first in the list of browsers to open links in, even though I don't have Chrome installed.

But it wasn't the FAA that placed the blame on the SpaceShipTwo designers, it was the NTSB. Hopefully there's a similarly independent agency that can lead an investigation of the NOTAM debacle.

I do the same thing (plug both computers directly into different inputs on the monitor but use a USB switch to switch the mouse & keyboard). If you install this software on both computers, you can eliminate the "switching via OSD" step, because it will watch for the USB connect / disconnect events and initiate the input switch automatically via the DDC connection to the monitors, so it gives you true one-touch KVM switching at the cost of a USB switch.

This works especially well in cases where an actual KVM switch would be expensive or unavailable (in my case, I'm switching three 4K HDR DisplayPort monitors, which would require a very expensive KVM switch).

The CRT retains a high voltage charge even when the TV is unplugged.

Except that even adding a case isn't sufficient any more. The camera bump on the iPhone 14 Pro is so tall that it still extends beyond the standard Apple cases.

There is no stock price, it's a private company now.

The inactivated virus variant of the polio vaccine is still in the standard childhood immunization schedule in the US:
