If the packaging material isn't economically viable to recycle then the manufacturer should be required to offset the cost or use different packaging.
Why is packaging that ends up in the landfill even allowed on store shelves?

Banks get hacked, Facebook and Yahoo get hacked, even the CIA got hacked. They employ some of the best security experts on the planet.
Nothing is completely safe.

Any access can be enhanced access with the right exploit.

It said 95% of his net worth was bitcoin, it didn't say he invested in it. He may have mined a few coins early on and has been waiting to cash in.

So pyston is only excruciatingly slow instead of abysmally slow. Sounds great.

Tomorrow... new study shows reduced grey matter gives you more reason to be a drinker.

The only sure way to opt-out is not buy the device. Microsoft has a checkbox for opting-out of "features" that don't do anything so why should I trust Amazon?

I kinda like that Disney has its own streaming service. That way I don't have to filter out Disney content on Netflix.

Since when is poultry not meat?

Hopefully the personalized ads market will die a quick and painless (for me) death.

Unless those jobs happen to be in other countries.

"The worst thing is that it was an entirely preventable disaster"

Talk about hyperbole. Who died?

There are plenty of MEGA 2560s already doing that.
There are plenty of applications that don't need the power of an FPGA but would benefit from this.

The RP2040 does things that an STM32 or ESP can't. The big feature for me is the programmable state machine on each IO pin. It allows deterministic timing for custom protocols. You can implement WS2812, DVI or whatever new serial protocol comes along without loading down the main processor. It could also be used for motor control or a SMPS driver that requires tight timings and fast updates. There are other microcontrollers that do this like the PSoC or Propeller 2 but they are more than double the price.

It's more like someone putting a Joe DiMaggio rookie card in a safe and then forgetting the combination. He obviously thought it was valuable or at least would become valuable.
