32 cents per?!! I wanted to ask what the price of gas was if it costs more, but I dunno now, my chin is busted and hurting from hitting the floor so hard.

I live over on the east cost and here electricity is 8 cents per kWh.
Gas hovers around $3/gl, usually is about $30-35 to fill up, which is about every 1.5-2 weeks for me.

It sounds like an EV would be stupid cheap to charge at home if not for the small detail I do not currently have power to my garage. Something I've been meaning to look into the cost to have run but haven't gotten around to it yet.

You can also hold power/sleep and volume up (aligned with power on the other side) for 3 seconds.
This opens the emergency screen where calling 911 needs an extra swipe to do, along with a shutdown and cancel button.

However at this point face/touch ID is disabled requiring the passcode again.

I wasn't aware of the 5-press power button thing, so thank you for that.
Good to have options regarding auto-dialing 911 or not depending on the situation.

It's a term from much earlier than that.

Punch cards held a fixed number of characters, the first IBM punch cards were 80 characters for instance, and that was the maximum length of a "line". One line per punch card.

It doesn't matter if your punch card was 1 character or all 80, you still used up an entire card to store it.
So it made little sense to count characters, words, etc. You count by card, or line. Thus LOC (lines of code)

Assembly language was a "one statement per line" language.
You didn't have text editors, at best you might have written a draft first on paper.
So a line/card was a direct measure of the number of instructions in your program.
Things like comments were hand written in the margins. They didn't count as lines of their own.

Oh, and punch cards came in packs of 1000, wrapped separately within the box of cards you ordered. Thus KLOC (1000 lines of code)

I don't know if programmers were paid by the line, but there was certainly a fixed cost of cards that was directly comparable, since cards and lines were the same thing.
If management types were involved at all it would be more related to reordering your consumables, not unlike measuring pages printed per month to figure out how often you need to reorder printer paper.

Autocorrect strikes again. Curse you Steve Jobs! *shakes fist in air*

This used to be common 8+ years ago.
Technically it was an Android feature, it didn't matter what the device was. This behavior was changed/fixed in android a very long time ago.

I had a Sharp Aquos LC 70" tv from back in 2012 I believe, which ran android and shipped with wifi enabled.

I also had a Sony bravidia(sp?) that I know had the same version of android, although I didn't have it in a location near wifi to witness auto-connect, I used hard-wired ethernet.
I only even remember that detail as the two TVs used the same process for side-loading the kodi apk :P

What sucks about your question is that apparently the Aquos has had yearly refreshes ever since and I can't quickly find any results specific for the old 2012 model.
At the time there were numerous search results detailing how to turn the wifi auto-connect off, second only to troubleshooting wifi that stopped working.

It isn't that no one documented and published their findings, just that the search results for them seem to be lost to the sands of time.

So the task is to find and catch those who placed QR codes around the city as part of a PR effort...
Come Watson!

Through the powers of deduction, I believe I've found your culprits!

(This wasn't my fault, the prior article made me do it)

Wouldn't you prefer a nice game of theaterwide biotoxic and chemical warfare?

I'd be more interested to know if the PHBs home world was issuing visitor visas

You can setup Certificate Authority Authorization in your dns to do just that.
Add a "CAA" record for your webservers domain with "issue your.chosen.ca.here"
You can add multiple records too when planning to switch CAs.

A browser receiving a cert signed by any other CA will fail SSL validation.

Chrome, Firefox, and Safari all check these. I only assume Edge does too but never actually checked that.

It's only been part of the TLS standard since 2010 so depending on the client application, it's possible it goes out of its way to not check this validation step. Most TLS libraries do check by default however.

Some people see a picture of an HDMI overlay, others only see a rabbit.
Try relaxing your eyes and letting them cross naturally. The important thing is to not give up!

When I was in the xbox xcloud beta, they initially only released an Android client, which I ran on a samsung galaxy s20.
It used a snapdragon cpu, and a family-matching gpu (Sorry, I never really memorized the chip names in the mobile arm world)

The big deal with xcloud was that all the heavy 3d rendering was done server-side, and only the final video frames were streamed to the device.
Basically if your device can watch youtube, it has enough power to play xcloud.

MS stated after the beta they would also release windows, iphone, and xbox one clients for xcloud.
It seemed a tiny hdmi stick akin to a fire stick or chromecast would be an obvious end-goal, which is why the article here is so strange.
There's no real reason the hardware needed would be a cost problem.

Here's an article from a month ago that has more details
https://www.protocol.com/enter...

No FET transistors made with "14 nm process" or better technology, which is a FET with a gate size of 20 nanometers or smaller.
No memory with gate sizes of 18 nanometer or smaller.
No flash storage with 128 layers or more.
No fab gear or any other equipment that aids with photolithography.
Plus no services or tools to use any of the above.

So in a sense, yes, we are saying it's against the law to give them the hardware needed to do math faster.

They will eventually figure out how to build the fabs to make such hardware themselves, the same way we had to figure it out, but they are hoping the development and design process takes longer than signing a purchase order, and slow the progress down.

A counter argument is that "art is in the eye of the beholder"
Not just the properties of that art, but even if I consider it art.

You say intent behind it matters.
When I look at some cable harness assemblies, I see beauty and art.
The intent of the assembler was a functional system that is easy to maintain and diagnose.

Why shouldn't I see that as art, simply because the creators intent was not to make art?

Moreso, not all assemblies look like art to me. A google image search on the term provides plenty of ugly examples.
Here's one of those I find to be beautiful

Haven't you ever looked at something that occurred in nature and thought to yourself "wow that could be a work of art!", despite being completely organic with no intent behind it at all?

What does this mean for paintings of flowers? If flowers in nature can't be art due to lack of intent, why would an artist ever have an intent of duplicating such a scene? Only for it to just then become art?

I don't disagree with your statement regarding curating of art, except in that the curator curates. What is curated (those things being art or something else) isn't changed by the curating of those things.
But yes, the curation as a whole, a different thing (sum of the parts), can also itself be art.

Shh! I think this is a great idea!

Now I can just go to some .eu website, keep hitting refresh, and send the website a bill for the bandwidth consumed over my in house Ethernet!

The European Commission would never pass some unfair law that doesn't apply equally to all network providers... right? ~

The last 486 system I worked on was early last year.
This was an embedded SoC of course. The modules are about $60 USD and only about $10 of that was to license the CPU core. It even came with onboard ISA (for pc-104) and PCI controllers.

We had to support an old latency sensitive BacNET TSR library with the additional requirement of fat32 support.

It used to be based on FreeDOS, and was DOS 7 via Win9x before that.
It didn't utilize any of the Windows shell or GUI at all, it was just an unfortunate MS licensing thing.

Those older ones were the 128 MB RAM versions, but today they also have 1 GB chips.
Here we still use Linux kernel 2.0 and DosBox to host the TSR and DB2 engine.
(A nice legacy stack of turtles all the way down!)
