It was my understanding that “net neutrality” revolved mainly around ISPs and their “common carrier” status. Specifically not being able to create “fast lanes” or other shaping and pricing decisions around content. This would also give them some shielding around content by ensuring they treated all information “equally”.

Based on that, I’m curious how your statement applies given that CloudFlare is not an ISP, but rather a paid for service that is not required to access the internet.

We recently got moved under someone who leads call center operations and they’re wanting to apply similar metrics to the devs to “ensure they’re being productive the entire time”. I told them that there’s lots of work they do outside the normal 9-5 and that you can’t just measure what someone does by lines of code created else you’ll end up with a 30 line if statement instead of a for each letter loop, but they don’t seem to care. If things get implemented I’m just waiting for the shit show it’ll cause.

They’re Taiwanese, sell worldwide and have been around for 40 years, so I don’t know why you’ve never heard of them.

QNAP locking people out, while D-Link is letting anybody in.

Can you please let us know what password manager does what you said?

Up until that TV dies.

Basically. I mean look at Edge, it’s running Chromium under the hood, but the UI is developed by Microsoft.

Hot take: they sell Chrome but keep Chromium.

There’s white, gray and black hat… and then you have these guys, piss yellow hats.

You’re missing his point because you want t trumpet your own. Let me flip the question around a bit

If they were to build for, and pay for the electrical capacity on their own dime, would you prefer them doing it with nuclear or coal?

Yeah he just mentioned “F150 performance” and it’s literally an F150. That’s what prompted my question.

It’ll be great to see them start coming out with smaller truck sized EVs.

So what about the F150 Lightning doesn’t meet that? It actually offers whole house backup which is something that caught my attention

I see way too many around here and people have taken to putting wraps on it. I love seen one that tries to make it look like the Warthog from Halo.

I irrationally hate the term “web3” (or maybe it’s rational). It feels like someone tried to force a paradigm rather than the natural evolution.

So why hasn’t anyone said much about Apple Intelligence? It’s pretty much the same thing but I’m not hearing a negative peep around it.

Had been. But we’re in a post-accountability era for corporations so most likely nothing will happen.

Usually what I’ll do is I’ll recombine the folders into an iso file using mkisofs and then keep the ISO as it keeps all the menus and everything in tact. Later if you want, you can run that ISO through MakeMKV and just rip out an MKV of the main title through. But since I have enough disc space I just rip all my DVDs and BDs to straight ISOs to keep all the menus and extras in tact for later.

That license was laughable and blatant

I just find it fucking hilarious that people expect software to be supported in excess of 10 years, paid or not, when that’s never really been the case over the past 40 years of software. Sure someone will probably come up with an edge case somewhere, but if you developed software, and continually released versions and updates, would you want to maintain a version you released that long ago?

Windows 10 will have been around for 10 years at that point. That’s a pretty good run. You know another OS that is stopping support after 10 years? Ubuntu 14 LTS, but no one complains about that. People freaked out when Windows 7 went EOL, and XP before that.
