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.

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.

Changes to building and zoning codes over the past half century have made building "the size of house that people bought 50 years ago" illegal in many cases. You can't buy such a house if such a house isn't on the market, and you may not build a new one under current law.

Linus Torvalds is a dual citizen. He was born a citizen of Finland and became a citizen of the United States in 2010. (Source: "Linus Torvalds, already an Oregonian, now a U.S. citizen" by Mike Rogoway, citing a post to LKML by Torvalds)

It'd be more interesting to count commits by nationality. I'm pretty sure Torvalds no longer has the lion's share of commits.

Microsoft has control over distribution of the copyrighted Windows operating system. It has used this control to dictate whether or not makers of devices that include Windows are allowed to let users load their own custom keys. For example, Microsoft required makers of devices that come with Windows RT (the port of Windows 8 and Windows 8.1 to ARM architecture) to block end users from turning off Secure Boot and block end users from loading their own custom keys, as conditions for a license under copyright to distribute Windows RT on those devices.

How granular would the permission be? If web browsers start blocking all animation and post-load layout shifting by default, including CSS transitions and animations, this would encourage website operators to structure the page to coerce permission to animate in each document. For example, a website operator could make each page load blank other than a notice to the effect "Tap or click to view 'Title of Article' on Name of Site."

In my experience on laptops and tablets, I've found the exact opposite (eager loading) helpful in some situations with limited or no data. I would download an entire page on unmetered Wi-Fi, go offline, and read while riding as a passenger in a car or bus.

I sincerely doubt that 14,500 USD per year (full-time minimum wage) is near enough to pay for income tax, rent, food, health insurance, and a round-trip taxi ride every weekday in most of the United States. I'd be interested to read examples of budgets that you have in mind.

Recent graduates tend to be stuck with hourly food service and retail jobs. These tend to treat availability outside 9 to 5 as a condition for hiring, not to be doable from home, and not to pay enough for a taxi. Even a cyclist needs a backup during bad weather.

If someone happens not to have this privilege, then how would they go about traveling to or from work at night or on Sundays, when all the bus drivers are at home with their families? (Source: Citilink in Fort Wayne, Indiana, USA)

I imagine that most gamers are unwilling to pay for business-class service if business-class service is the only "real" service offered at their home address.

How are you going to host a game server on a home computer if you share your IPv4 address with other subscribers to the same ISP in the same neighborhood,[1] and the combined modem and router that your home ISP requires all subscribers to use lacks an option for port forwarding? Both of these are true, for example, of T-Mobile US Home Internet.

[1] Many home ISPs apply carrier-grade network address translation (CGNAT) to conserve IPv4 addresses since the worldwide exhaustion.

Four of the top five and five of the top ten games on Are We Anti-Cheat Yet's list are marked "Denied", which it defines as "Games where the developers have explicitly stated that they will not enable the anti-cheat solution to work on Linux or have denied the possibility of Linux support".
