You are correct with respect to their internal storage.

However, say you want to interchange files among several computers using removable media, such as an SD card, USB flash drive, or USB hard drive. One is a Windows PC that prefers NTFS, another a Mac that prefers Apple's FS, and another a Linux PC that prefers ext4. What file system would you use on the drive?

The octets of invalid information mark the address as fictional, as opposed to being the live address of a real machine. Telephone subscribers in several area codes started receiving prank phone calls after the 1982 release of "867-5309/Jenny", a song by the band Tommy Tutone containing a live numeric address on the US phone network. This led US TV show producers to start using the 555 (or KLondike 5) exchange, which was largely set aside for fictional use.

The difference is that if the customer is on IPv6, the customer is more likely to have a globally unique address. This means the customer is at least technically capable of forwarding an inbound port across a stateful firewall, provided the ISP doesn't deliberately interfere with port forwarding the way T-Mobile US (a wireless ISP using 5G NR) does with its home Internet service. The TV commercials don't mention that T-Mobile home Internet is an outbound-only service.

Not really. Google proposed these limitations, letting them claim proudly "hey, we proposed this!"

They didn't require these limitations, so my suspicion is Pentagon will say no, the deal will be classified so nobody will know, and Google will get the credit they want for "trying."

Ugh, yeah. My grandparents lived in Germany in the early 40s and told me stories about having to take the train to some sort of camp. Really terrible experience. Would not recommend.

Do you not do the classic date night: dinner and a movie?

Sure...

But these days its getting harder and harder to get out on a date without the wife finding out...

But I have no idea why people pay that much money and sit through the advertising just to watch a derivative summer comedy.

....to veg out and enjoy someone else's air conditioning during the extreme heat of the summer....?

These are the same people that insist "assault rifles" must be banned, despite being unable to define them beyond "they're scary".

Well, er...let's see...they're black!! And uh....when you pull the trigger, they go "PEW"....and uh....well uh...

Right?

Being in the firearms business without an FFL will make you a human doing illegal things. Even if you do it with a file and hand-crank drill.

Not federally.

It has always been legal in the US to make your own firearms for PERSONAL use.

You can make all the firearms you want, but, you cannot sell them, nor give them away....no serial number required, etc.

This has been the long standing right all US citizens have enjoyed since the country began.

It's only recently where companies made this a bit easier to do that some states started freaking out.

I seem to remember that Slashdot subscriptions lasted a specific number of page views before expiring. Slashdot stopped offering them a couple acquisitions ago. Yours probably expired.

"Recruit your friends, grab your 15 year old camcorder, edit in Sony/Magix Vegas, do the CGI stuff in whatever you can find"!

A home user these days has a LOT of resources/tools that will allow some great content to be made.

There are tools that only a few years ago were ONLY in the reaches of the $$$ corporations.

You can buy quality cameras for $2K or so range...you have tools like Davinci Resolve that actually has a FREE version that will do 99% of what a young filmmaker would need to do with reference to editing, VFX, Sound and color correction/grading.

RODE and DJI and others make perfectly usable mic systems the average user can use to capture good sound.

And with the AI tools coming on board....you can do some really special stuff, not full CGI, but I've seen transitions clips done with AI that had my jaw drop....

And no this will not put you in the poor house....yes you have to invest ''some" into equipment, but the main resource you need these days....is sweat equity, imagination and determination to learn how to use the tools at your disposal.

Nobody expects you to put out Raiders of the Lost Ark on your first attempt....but hey, good story writing and presentation go a LONG way, hell, just look back a couple decades ago and longer to see that that is actually what carried movies since the inception of the art form.

So the current production version of Mark Zuckerberg is building a newer version with a more intuitive human interface, I get it.

Go always seemed like something of a niche language to me. Some DevOps folks, and especially people working on cloud-native infrastructure like Docker and Kubernetes, and the tools designed to run on top of them, seemed to love it. I never really heard of it catching on outside that niche, though (except within Google).

Correct. The TIOBE index is currently compiled from results from 25 search engines. You see this in the way the rankings bounce around each time they report them, seemingly with no meaningful explanation. That's why TIOBE always has been and always will be a crappy indicator of which languages are the most used ... especially now that more people are using AIs instead of standard search engines to ask their questions.

However, the index looks like statistics, which makes it attractive to journalists who cover tech. That means it's useful for getting TIOBE's name in the press. (TIOBE is a software quality measuring company),

Yeah. Whose sense of morality or spirituality will the software be tuned to? Mine, or yours or those of the Roman church? There's millions of people who find it immoral to eat onions

Ok, any religion that says God says you cannot eat this or that food...is immediately disqualified....

I cannot believe God made pork....some of the world's BEST food (bacon, smoked BBQ, etc)...and then said "You can't eat this".

Sorry I don't buy it.

Onion? Seriously...?

Please, what religions says you can't eat onions? If they were right I'd be dead and in hell by end of breakfast most days.
