Huh, I didn’t know about this option. I’ll check it out. Thanks!

My ingress firewall blocks the cert renewal challenge requests because they always come from countries that I blanket block, which requires me to keep an eye on it and disable blocking on certain countries to allow the renewals to happen, then re-enable blocking… Let’s Encrypt (somewhat understandably) doesn’t publish the list of IPs that they will use for the challenge requests, so I’m not sure if there’s a better solution. Anyone dealt with this?

If you create little solar-powered micro computers and toss them onto the roof of a bunch of random businesses with public Wi-Fi, then run them as exit nodes then you could bounce your connection around through a random set.

I didn’t come up with this, I think it was a plot point in some novel I read.

But the tarrifs don’t go to the penguins…

But the penguins don’t pay for the trarrif, Americans do

I haven’t had time to watch the video, but based on the text in the post, here’s my 2c:

If you actually build it, it’s not a fake project, whether or not you were paid to make it.

I wish my alignment with poutine would grant me Canadian citizenship…

What’s even worse is that even with these prices, Palisades is absolutely swamped with people on most days that are worth skiing (especially holidays).

So, unfortunately, the market can clearly bear these prices…

I definitely miss skiing in Tahoe when I was younger. Much different vibe now with all the crowds :(

Runabouts can be very awesome, but can anyone explain to me what the hell is going on in the UK where (in some places) they’ve added a bunch of traffic lights to their roundabouts? In my (admittedly limited) experience, they make them substantially worse, but perhaps I’m missing something?

Twitter is hot garbage, that’s only gotten worse since Elon took over, but this is really just a problem with government agencies/departments using social media websites as primary avenues of delivering information.

If you’re talking about Marvel Rivals, then it’s not made by a “Western developer”, but NetEase, a Chinese studio…

NVENC has a slow preset:

As they expand the NVENC options that are exposed on the command line, is it getting closer to CPU-encoding level of quality?

Then each executive’s AI can just review the slides. Then the AIs can send a string of pointless emails back and forth to each other, come to a consensus and share the decision in an email blast to the whole company.

Wait… why do we need execs again?

The title is a bit weird. On my first reading it makes it sound like two different people can have indistinguishable fingerprints. But after reading/skimming the article+paper, it seems like what they’ve actually done is been able to correlate fingerprints from different fingers on the same person.

So the title makes it sound like they’ve weakened the basis of fingerprinting as forensic evidence, when in fact they’ve developed a way to link the different fingerprints from the same criminal so that additional cases could be solved.

e.g. if a criminal only left a thumb print at one crime scene and an index finger print at another, this posed a problem for investigators because they couldn’t link them to the same person, but this “AI” approach can link those two different prints to the same person.

Firing someone “with cause”, but without any real actual reason (cause), is illegal.

I don’t think it shows any ads.

Must be a legit company. They have the 0.com domain!

Right, but non-alcoholic beer is good, because it tastes like hoppy goodness without the alcohol or calories.

Whereas white claw does not taste good, and this has more calories than many (better) seltzers (which already don’t have alcohol). So it seems like a weird move.

I assume they are just banking on their name recognition generating some sales, but I hope people go for some of the better options from smaller companies!

It’s 15 calories “better” than seltzer.

Seems like a weird move. The soda water/seltzer market has gotten crowded in the last few years.
