Sure, but is that adequate? Not having people practice their passwords seems to be an anti-pattern for selling premium support in password managers, while many other apps ask with planned frequency.
Toilet phone extensions were a thing, the classiest ones were brown.
Russia has been doing the rounds looking for allies, some way to cause a shake up, etc. In a parallel universe, what were the odds that countries like Iran and NK showed higher than normal competency this year?
Makes it clearer that this is a proxy war of Russia via Iran. I'm not sure Russia or Hamas have thought this through since they both just threw out a lot of relationships for something on the bottom of the other shoe.
The channels to scan vary with country based on government regulation of frequencies. Normally, a full list of rules is accumulated for each implementation so it could be used globally.
A possibility is that Google thinks they will avoid pointless legal risk by not having support at all for countries they "don't need" or to prevent unauthorized exporters. This would be quite silly because travelers expect to roam with their devices.
Another possibility is that people are using other imported hardware that is not configured to the current country and selecting channels not actually allowed in the country. This is usually only 1 channel in a dozen so seemingly unlikely, though congestion algorithms prefer a channel that no one else is using..
The article states these other companies played a role in faulty pH measurement, leading to less dilution with actual real water.
I don't remember the beginning premise of Shaun of the Dead, but rabid positive thinkers reentering society sounds about right.
So force them to rename. The article acts as slander against long term Chinese companies that haven't renamed themselves and probably do as much or as little as the fake Western Brands to secure boot.
How is this different than saying every investment is a subsidy? China's future domestic spending capability is obviously expanding as it invests in industrial capability.
Thanks to compounding, if they have consistently spent half as much as "they should" elsewhere for decades, there is some moment where they will reach more absolute domestic spending without ever raising that rate to where it "should" be.
It seems kind of crazy to me that they've jumped so quickly to full skin layers.
From examples where people heal without scarring like in minor wounds, it always seemed to me like a goo of accepted but useless cells frequently replaced would be sufficient to confuse where scar tissue should form while gradual healing from adjacent skin eventually occurred.
To me that's just a marketing induced cognitive blind spot. You don't have to know what $200 phone you buy in 4 years, but you want to harp on one 90% imaginary one you will hate when there's almost no chance a choice made 4 years in advance is better than all possible choices with actual information. If for example, mediatek continues to widen their gap then Samsung will choose another one that can match the last generation in Moore's law.
A refurbished iPhone SE 2023 that has a new battery and working screen is probabilistically worth more than the iPhone 2023 you buy today, and will be less than $200 unless there's a serious shortage because they have a high failure rate?
In my thinking the cost of similar products in an industry like tech is the best available estimate of how much environmental damage is involved (I.e. upgrading tooling is itself likely to produce waste) so planning to buy a $400 phone once every 7 years and actually buying one every 2 is much worse than trying to get 3-4 years out of what people have tried to make with popular runs of somewhat outdated commodity parts.
The A14 equivalent in 4 years is going to be faster than the current iPhone SE, not broken, and IMO more likely to survive the 3 years.
Buying something like the Samsung A14 every 4 years would cost about the same and seems a lot more realistic than aspirational.
I think its great that phones are being supported for 7 years but in a way it is a marketing chip based on consumer's using unrealistic linear depreciation.
Some consumers can pass down, repurpose, or only need very basic things, but most consumers need much of the relative performance they first bought, break screens, can't handle embedded battery replacement logistics, etc, so most probably have replaced something like the iPhone SE before 4 years is up and are paying more than they would have expected.
From reading the next sentences, I doubt the officer did anything beyond adjust the direction to keep it more stationary by the oppositional force of their vehicle.
Given adequate highways, rotaries and traffic going faster, one can drive indefinitely without breaking, so while there's always a question of whether a notable incident is a stunt of some sort by someone who actually knew how to stop, etc, I don't see anything unlikely about the outcome.
I think it might just get more complicated because without government's monopoly, and as shown in places where that wanes, anyone can decide people making money this way or that way are a problem they want to fix..
> whether they want to spend $89 for a battery or $890
No, they can pay less than $120 on a new phone in the budget tier which will be at least comparable in capabilities to a 5 year old phone in any tier and also have about 2 years of life.
They were addicted to the big budget videos and glorifying production costs at a time when special effects were still very expensive, but the benefit to doing that was inherently dropping since any artist that could expect millions more in increasingly cheaper CD sales had alternatives to an expensive Ad/giveaway.
That doesn't answer any question for me of whether the video medium was good or bad, clearly MTV's monopoly meant the only way to release videos was an economical disaster.
Is that really down to the medium? I thought rights issues of music videos meant they preferred cheap content they totally owned. I.e. Beavis and Butthead couldn't release complete DVDs with videos implying MTV was excluded from revenue streams until they made non-music video shows.
It looks very partial lock down period oriented though, which makes it a not very representative study. For example, the socializing hybrid provides may have been a lot better than almost no socializing with people outside the home, but far fewer WFH people today may be that isolated.
I think I would more easily be convinced that Madoff deserved rehabilitation than SBF.
There are certain behaviors in fraudsters that make me think they are psychopathic fraudsters and really incapable of dealing with the world without deceit. That naturally overlaps other dark triad traits that make it hard but not impossible for someone to put aside deceit and allow some deflation of their ego, etc.
I tended to get this impression with DDG because I use !g or !b only when I am dissatisfied with a ddg result, but !g seems worse than !b despite the expected overlap between ddg and Bing. Of course if you get adequately niche then Google should find something and not have spam, but I think they turned results off for anything sophisticated enough to return few results.
> Consciousness cannot be "obscure" when it is the basis for one's own experienced reality, the substrata underlying everything else.
That you can do any of this has consciousness as a precondition, it is of significance to us but we are most likely a statistical anomaly in the Universe. It is statistically probable that we have this rather fragile viewpoint on the Universe, that's only available in small places for short times, because consciousness has preconditions.
For people who work in or consume TV and film maybe the video camera seems fundamental to the nature of the world, but it wasn't very important before it was created.
You've just demonstrated the anthropic principle. Intelligent contemplation requires a lot of things so we will see them and can see them as fundamental, but they might be obscure in the universe.

The start of the Rohingya genocide precedes the civil war. The military controlled troops and the civil government controlled police in genocidal operations. A lack of rule of law, but not in the sense that some benevolent government just lacked power to act.
Sounds absurd and abusive to me. Companies should feel pressure to have good perks such as useful education that could be used elsewhere and if they can't retain people they certainly don't deserve a kick back for sucking.
I don't want to play in a job market with parasitic companies full of indentured servants who are afraid to demand the wage correspond to their role.
If Microsoft tried to do a similar schedule in announcing an OS EoL 2 years ahead there would be pitchforks, but renters don't have rights.
Oh, thank god. I was worried we would be the terminal jockeys monitoring and fixing the deadlocks and hallucinations of larger and larger herds of GPT prompts.
I suppose throwing dynamite from helicopters is a choice, but I still see Philadelphia as more of a living with risk place than a place that benefits from intelligent risk taking.
Seems nuts to me, but CEOs also get an interesting pressure not to effectively be in a second sector through real estate holdings, etc, so even if long term subleasing would have paid off they may not have wanted to.
I guess its that having a lot of assets in a lower alpha sector will dilute the upside in a boom compared to a company that is totally leveraged to have all its value operating in the one sector. Fiscal madness.
