I traded my cousin some really expensive RAM that I happened accross for his old desktop, that he put his graphics card into that he swapped from his newer computer.

There’s a reason large parts of the government are still running Windows 10/Office 2016, with all the cloud features disabled. This shit is absolutely not secure enough to meet national security standards.
In a collaborative effort, Apple and Google have developed an industry-standard detection feature called “Detecting Unwanted Location Trackers” (DULT) for Bluetooth trackers. This standard allows users on iOS and Android devices to be alerted if an unknown Bluetooth tracker is monitoring their location.
I think it’s intended as a tongue-in-cheek comment about phones already tracking you, and the OEMs selling that data.
Also they’re completely ignoring the immense personal safety benefits that come with knowing if, say, an abusive ex has slipped an airtag into your car somewhere. This is actually a responsible move for once (assuming it works as intended) because it addresses an unintended but dangerous use for the product, and attempts to prevent it rather than just killing a useful product.
Recent research indicates that turbulence is rising and that climate change is a cause, specifically elevated carbon dioxide emissions that affect air currents.
I’m sure there will be in the coming weeks. It’s just a brand new change, so no one has published an extension yet. I did learn you can block the ai results with uBlock origin, however, so that’s huge.
I know they’re not new; that’s just what they’re classified as on Wikipedia. It is “new” compared to Christianity, Islam, Judaism, Buddhism, etc. The distinction is that the Unification Church came about within the last 75 years, and so is not one of the “old” religious movements.
Biden’s campaign proposed that the first debate between the presumptive Democratic and Republican nominees be held in late June and the second in September before early voting begins. Trump responded to the letter in an interview with Fox News digital, calling the proposed dates “fully acceptable to me” and joked about...
There is literally nothing trump could say or do that will make his supporters question his mental fitness. All these will do is give them the chance to rip on Biden for absolutely anything he does. Because they don’t care what’s actually going on, they just want to cut together clips and then claim Biden is somehow more senile than Trump
Neuralink’s disclosure last week that tiny wires inside the brain of its first patient had pulled out of position is an issue the Elon Musk company has known about for years, according to five people familiar with the matter....
Also the timeline that’s expected to happen on. I’d be pretty fucking mad if my phone had dead pixels less than 6 months after buying it. 10 years, not so much.
Likewise, I’d be pretty mad that if a reportable amount of my brain electrodes detached within the first 6 months of having them, but I’d be less mad if it was a few years down the line (not that I’d ever be fully okay with it. This is my brain, after all).
I will admit, I think I’m coming from a place of zero trust that anything musk has his hands in has any amount of safety or redundancy built in, because that might hurt the bottom line
Imo, the biggest non-starter for commercial nuclear cargo ships is the maintenance cost. No commercial shipping company will ever be willing to shoulder the maintenance cost for nuclear vessels, because the cost is simply too high to make economic sense for them. Also, they’d have to overcome decades of mistrust and poor practice of maintenance for their current fleet to prove that they can actually maintain a nuclear vessel.
That comparison gets even more real in the UK…where they all still wear white powdered wigs and robes…add in speaking in Latin legal terms, and it’s definitely some sort of ritual lmao
Match Group, the company that owns several dating apps, including Tinder and Hinge, released its first-quarter earnings report on Tuesday, which shows that Tinder’s paying user base has decreased for the sixth quarter in a row.

Doesn’t sound like they’re acknowledging the core problem with tinder: it’s 95% bots and/or people who post a single picture and then a bio that just says “insta:” or “snap:”. And then at least half of those end up being OnlyFans bots anyways. It’s just not useful as either a dating service or a hookup app

Reagan and Co. are really responsible for creating and stoking the “Christian” right in this country, and they’re a huge (and often intertwined with the racist South) problem.
