catloaf,

No, they also use it because it integrates with the rest of the Office products. That makes it more appealing than other products like Zoom.

catloaf,

Okay but how’s the safety, reliability, and build quality? Good, or Chinesium?

catloaf,

Google translate gives it literally as “make the goat a gardener” which doesn’t have an equivalent, but it translates the phrase as “to make a scapegoat”, meaning you pin the blame on one person, they get all the consequences, and everyone else gets away with it. I’m not sure that’s what you meant.

catloaf,

The Bonus Army? Not necessarily homeless, but pretty close to it.

catloaf,

To put it in English, each blob is an atom, the thing as a whole is a crystal lattice of praseodymium orthoscandate (PrScO3).

In the article, figure 1d and 1e annotate the image to tell you exactly which part is which. The bright pairs are Pr-Pr, the single bright blobs with wings are O-Sc-O, and the dimmer blobs standing alone are O.

By my count that means each repeating section has two Pr, one Sc, and four O, which doesn’t add up to me, given the chemical formula PrScO3. But maybe that’s because they’re arranged in three dimensions and we’re only looking at two. I haven’t read the full article.

catloaf,

Also, when it goes south, they can pin the blame on the consultant instead of themselves.

catloaf,

Yeah, real hard-hitting journalism here from… arktrek.shop?

catloaf,

Sometimes open war comes upon you, whether you risk it or not.

catloaf,

Please don’t give the NY Post any attention, it’s right-wing garbage. And I highly doubt the protestors were anti-Israel, rather anti-genocide. Unless the Post means to say that Israel and genocide are one and the same.

catloaf,

I think they mean either all-new or straight dumpster-dive, no enhancing old games.

Americans are choking on surging fast-food prices. "I can't justify the expense," one customer says (www.cbsnews.com)

Kevin Roberts remembers when he could get a bacon cheeseburger, fries and a drink from Five Guys for $10. But that was years ago. When the Virginia high school teacher recently visited the fast-food chain, the food alone without a beverage cost double that amount....

catloaf,

Sysco has variety in their products. I just checked and they apparently have 128 different beef patty SKUs: shop.sysco.com/app/catalog?q=beef+patty&BUSINESS_…

Though I’m sure a lot of them are just variations on leanness and package size. Point is, unless you’re going to a specialty place, any restaurant is going to be buying Sysco patties (or at best, Sysco ground beef packs and hand-formed into patties) but the nicer restaurants are going to be using the better choices, and the shitty places are going to be using the cheapest ground beef formed into a cylinder and frozen.

catloaf,

If you want historical accuracy you shouldn’t be using generative AI in the first place.

catloaf,

Not as far as I’m aware. NDAs are pretty common.

catloaf,

You can’t “just start” a class action suit. You need to sue, get other people to sue, coordinate, and apply for class action status. That’s more time and effort than an individual suit.

catloaf,

Me over here still using none of them, just straight raw-dogging my variables

catloaf,

No.

“Bait and switch” is the advertising of a product without the bona fide intention to sell it, for the purpose of establishing contact with a prospective customer in order to induce or “switch” him to purchase another product.

The name of the Christian god is Yahweh or Jehovah.

catloaf,

Business decisions of a tech company are not in and of themselves tech.

catloaf,

Assuming the US military is even deployed to Gaza, they generally don’t want people pressed into service. The all-volunteer thing works pretty well for them. If anyone did get sentenced to this, the military would probably give them some shit duty stateside, or in Europe, or even just picking up trash in Gaza if Congress really forced it.

catloaf,

Either use a site that isn’t blocked, or use a VPN or proxy

catloaf,

Have you done a site survey? How big is the place, and what are the walls made of? If it’s easy to cover, you might just get a cheapo Netgear, and set it and forget it.

I’d also look at mesh equipment (but NOT just repeaters). They’re pretty good these days.

I hear Unifi equipment being recommended a lot less these days. And I imagine that you want something that’s not going to take management and supervision, preferring something that will Just Work, especially if you’re not nearby to fix it when it breaks.

Google Cloud accidentally deletes UniSuper’s online account due to ‘unprecedented misconfiguration’ (www.theguardian.com)

More than half a million UniSuper fund members went a week with no access to their superannuation accounts after a “one-of-a-kind” Google Cloud “misconfiguration” led to the financial services provider’s private cloud account being deleted, Google and UniSuper have revealed.

catloaf,

Someone who thinks we should have the worst right now and get it over with.

catloaf,

No, I do the same. I don’t really have backups at all. Some stuff I have in the cloud, but for convenience more than anything else.

I have my Windows drives encrypted with bitlocker, and I put the recovery keys in the cloud. I recently wiped the OS partition intending to retrieve the keys after reinstall, only to find the cloud provider is having an extended outage… So those drives are inaccessible for the time being. Maybe forever. I’ve barely missed them.

The biggest part of my data by byte is just media that I can redownload. I don’t have anything life-or-death critically important.
