It was a miscarriage you dumb fuck. The fetus was non-viable.

Qualcomm won’t send you a datasheet unless you can promise an order of 100,000. Arduino has always been open specification, and this is totally incompatible with Qualcomm.

What’s Nazi about it? It’s pretty clear AI slop though.

I would never subscribe to Crunchyroll, because they use DRM.

The GrapheneOS people. Everyone in their IRC unironically thinks Iphones are highly secure, in part BECAUSE they are proprietary. But they also don’t tolerate any criticism of Google, especially if you criticize Google for being proprietary.

“This suspect was arrested in possession of a loaded weapon in a vehicle provided by Des Moines Public Schools after fleeing federal law enforcement. This should be a wake-up call for our communities to the great work that our officers are doing every day to remove public safety threats. How this illegal alien was hired without work authorization, a final order of removal, and a prior weapons charge is beyond comprehension and should alarm the parents of that school district.”

Having a handgun is not illegal in Iowa. No permit is required for concealed or open carry.

The part about work authorization is a lie. This employee completed the I9 process. They were working legally in the US at the start of their employment, and there’s no evidence to suggest that changed.

I have self hosted my email since 2006. I gave up on self hosting outgoing mail in 2021, but I still keep the server up for incoming mail, and still set up throwaway accounts on there.

The hard part of hosting email is getting Google and Microsoft to accept outgoing mail. Tons of businesses that do not have visibly outlook .com or gmail .com addresses are still hosted by those servers.

I had SPF, DKIM, and a static datacenter IP address with no reputation problems. I still couldn’t get through to Microsoft, not even in people’s junk mail directory, until they manually whitelisted my address. Microsoft didn’t allow them to whitelist a whole domain. Google was a little easier, but they added new demands monthly.

In 2025, I can’t get reliable delivery to gmail .com addresses even sending from a hotmail .com address in the outlook .com web interface.

Is this sarcasm?

I ran Steam on Wayland just fine for several years.

“If the officers learn that the individual they stopped is a U.S. citizen or otherwise lawfully in the United States, they promptly let the individual go,”

This quote by Kavanaugh is a false statement, and probably a lie. Lots of permanent residents with valid green cards and people with valid visas are getting abducted by ICE, and then their visa or green card is simply revoked for no reason. Then they are deported.

Yeah, true, but that’s mostly fixed costs, and has a pretty low incremental cost for each video delivered. The fixed costs we have to pay regardless.

Electrical engineer here. There is almost no difference.

The cost of streaming video from a server to your computer is pretty small, basically just transferring the bytes from a hard drive to a network card. This happens in a datacenter on a big server designed to be efficient at it, and serve a ton of people at once. Your own electricity consumption on your viewing device is likely much higher than that. You can calculate your electricity consumption using a Kill-A-Watt or similar device, but here are some averages of measurements I’ve made on my devices:

• PC with 27" LCD monitor: 150W
• 50" TV: 300W
• Laptop with internal 14" screen: 40W
• Phone with 5" screen: 10W roughly, but it’s complicated
• Phone with screen off, speaker only: 2W (guessing here)
• Handheld FM radio: less than 1W

If you look at your computer’s CPU usage while watching video, it’s mostly idle. So most of the power consumption is the screen’s backlight.

Assuming worst-case coal power, releasing 0.4kg of carbon per kWh, and a large TV, and let’s say 10% overhead for the server’s energy cost, that’s 0.13kg of carbon per hour. So don’t worry about it.

Which governor are you referring to? Illinois or Louisiana?

Don’t post this trash if you’re not going to verify it.

Doesn’t it freeze there? It’s in northern Illinois.

Could we put Einstein’s bones in a centrifuge, and run at 200km/h?

I loaded a bunch of articles until it prompted me to pay. I got the screenshot below. In my opinion, this is an intentionally misleading fake 50c/month offer.

Not sure how much you’re paying for your VPN, but a virtual private server can be had for about $5 per month. You’ll get a real IPv4 address just for you, so you won’t have to use non-standard port numbers. (You can also use the VPS as a self-hosted VPN or proxy.)

$5 per month doesn’t get you much processing power, but it gets you plenty of bandwidth. You could self-host your server on your home computer, and reverse-proxy through your NAT using the VPS.

a slide out menu needs JavaScript

A slide out menu can be done in pure CSS and HTML. Imho, it would look bad regardless.

When if you said just send the parts of the page that changed, that dynamic content loading would still be JavaScript

OP is trying to access a restaurant website that has no interactivity. It has a bunch of static information, a few download links for menu PDFs, a link to a different domain to place an order online, and an iframe (to a different domain) for making a table reservation.

The web dev using javascript on that page is lazy, yet also creating way more work for themself.

He’s also one of the inventors of Javascript as a browser feature. I feel like that would matter to OP.
