FWIW the only commercially-available MoCA 2.5 product I've found that you can actually buy as an end user is the one at gocoax.com (not affiliated.)

I've been very happy with their product.

Any chance we could get the link changed to something that doesn't have a Google loginwall? I'm not going to sign in to a Google account to read a bug report.

In addition to being NSFW, it's also a print, and I would be annoyed if I got it and didn't realize that. I think it's very easy to skip the line that says "limited edition print" especially given the material description being the original materials.

Everyone can't. You can adjust the privacy settings such that you have to add someone to your Telegram contacts before they can discover you are on Telegram. It's easily done in Telegram's privacy settings. This is a primary reason I prefer it to signal despite the screeching from armchair crypto experts on HN anytime Telegram is mentioned.

And of course they're not working with insurance companies or anything to make this accessible to anyone outside the HCOL bubble who have giant amounts of disposable income to sign up for an unknown commitment to a $130 a month "membership".

Just sell the damn test and don't worry about 'growth hacking' during a pandemic.

It's not in the keychain. You can back up /var/db/lockdown, though.

There are 64 bit versions of the Microsoft Office apps. Do they not work in Catalina?

This is true (the royalty varying on the size of the memory) but the royalty was also significantly higher if there was any custom hardware involved on the cart - specifically because you actually had to purchase the "Game Pak" from Nintendo, so they would charge you "whatever they could get away with" for enhancement chips.

No, of course not. All numbers texted do, when you start a new conversation thread (to check if the number is enrolled in iMessage), though.

Yet they did it anyway, so it sounds like they sure did make the determination on what's good or bad, just accompanied with some hand-wringing in a blog post.

Real humility would have been not making the decision and instead lobbying for someone with the 'political legitimacy' to do so.

Cloudflare pretending like they're neutral in one corner while gleefully cutting off service to anyone who offends cancel culture in the other is gross, and they certainly shouldn't be praised for it.

It changed, but not really that recently.

Note specifically the step where the addon must be signed before it can be installed in this fashion. "Developer edition" does not require you have Mozilla's permission to install addons.

Tesla's network is not open-access, there is authentication involved so that even if you implement the physical standard you can't use their chargers without their consent.

Google still isn't the seller of record, though.

Regrettably, nobody bothers to mention that JavaScript is really what's to blame for all of this. If unnecessary use of JavaScript earned the same sort of derision that "best viewed in IE 6" banners did, we wouldn't be where we are today.

That genie is too far gone to put back in the bottle, but that's the real problem with the online advertising 'ecosystem'. JavaScript enabled pop-up ads, it enables tracking, it enables coinminers and other malware.

I imagine you’re being downvoted because your post comes across as another smug designer/product person saying “I know better than you, you uneducated philistine”, with a side of “you just haven’t seen it done right and your personal experience is wrong.”

I’m sure Reddit’s abortion of a redesign has went through hundreds of rounds of UX testing and has been signed off on by the masters of the field, but it’s still slow, unnecessary, and buggy. It does everything worse than the existing design, except perhaps for increasing some sort of pointless dashboard metric users don’t care about.

You left out the portion of the article that says only apps you built yourself don't need to be signed/notarized.

Apps distributed over the Internet, like, you know, the ones we're talking about, must be notarized according to your own source.

Today, on July 9, 2019, yes you are not forced to be part of the developer program.

Apple has announced that is changing very soon[0] and you attacking everyone who already knows this as 'conspiracy theorists' is kind of insulting.

0: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/security/notarizin... - "Beginning in macOS 10.15, notarization is required by default for all software".

You can only have software notarized as a member of the developer program.

I really think whoever approves these to go on the Google blog needs to cut the Newspeak titles of these announcements, as it seems like they are almost always saying the exact opposite of the title in the article.

Nerfing adblockers does not "improve security and privacy for extension users" in any meaningful way, and it is, IMO, a revealing glimpse at the attitude Google has if they think it actually does.

Click "report a problem" in the invoice link they email you after a purchase. It isn't very obvious.

The cheap one supports add-on sensors, it just doesn't include any.

> I’m a Works with Nest developer. Will I be able to access and control Nest devices moving forward?

> No. The Actions on Google Smart Home platform does not provide open API access to Nest devices, so it cannot be used to access and control Nest devices. Instead, managing and controlling Google Home, Nest, and thousands of third-party smart home devices is done through the Google Home app and the Google Assistant.

Wow, just wow. The entire non-Google Nest ecosystem evaporates overnight.

Don't worry, you can fix all of this by joining the ReturnPath Protection Racket™^W^W "Sender Certification Program" that will let you pay to guarantee your mail ends up in the Inbox at all the major players.

> (although it would cool to have a poem as the private key)

Apple does this with Mac OS X. The System Management Controller contains a key, and the "Dont Steal Mac OS X" kernel extension (which checks for that key) contains a poem that must be present for Mac OS X to run.

Check out flightmemory.com. It isn't automated, but it does have a thriving community around saving and analyzing the information you mentioned.

Being able to vote. Consular services. The American military keeping the peace worldwide. You can quibble over the value of these services, but there are logical reasons why countries may want to tax overseas citizens who retain citizenship.

There is no feedback loop for most mail you don't want. Anything "standard" (or "STD") in the postage area will just be thrown away if you put it back in the mail stream. You'll also have to deal with every catalog being sent to "OR CURRENT RESIDENT".

The prior owners of my place still get on average 9-10 pieces of mail a week here, and I just have to throw it all out. If one sender is especially egregious, I will contact them and demand they stop mailing to my address, but this is a slow process. (The prior owners refused to submit change of address forms, and when I contacted them they specifically said "we get too much junk mail and we want less of it!")

You can actually get a remarkably accurate prescription with no feedback at all.[1] You've almost certainly done this before as part of an eye exam. (Look in this machine at the balloon.)

The refraction portion of the eye exam is the least important one for medical reasons and the one that people think has the highest stakes (getting the right glasses.) The other parts of the eye exam (pressure testing, retinoscopy, etc.) are worth far more to your overall health.

And it's been "coming later" since at least this time last year when it was called eul.
