I'm worried I'll slip up and do it in public. Or maybe the ceiling will be so much more comfortable that I can never go back.

Oh, and that ceiling fan kinda hurts.

I mean, maybe you're in need of a second fridge or something!

I have issues even with the simplest Apple USB-C to 3.5 mm dongle on my phone. The USB side rocks back and forth, disconnecting from the phone and exploding my ears with popping noises.

It's also flimsy as hell.

I'm just speculating. It seems like, at least at the moment, anti cheat continues to be able to run as kernel. The article says Microsoft will have more to say on anti cheat "in the near future."

It may be that they don't crack down on the realtime applications as hard, since the number of users impacted is so much smaller. Antivirus and anti cheat are on many millions of machines and are usable by the average consumer. Specialty software may be considered differently, I. E. "You know what you're doing and what risks you're assuming" for the more technical customer.

It will be interesting to see where they go with this.

An interesting question. Assuming they're only targeting security/antivirus products at the moment (see the discussion regarding anti-cheat) it may be that those applications get a pass for now.

I mean, NYC is known for being attacked by crazy monsters, I've seen the movies. It's only a matter of time before an enormous pickle lays seige to Manhattan, and let's face it - Mamdani doesn't have what it takes to face that down.

Vote Sliwa for Pickle Security!

That's what powers the high speed trains.

Now, for the rest of us? Going to the ER is a privilege for those that work hard, so if you're overheating in that Amazon warehouse, there's plenty of piss bottles around. Go drink your water from your privatized lead pipes.

The electric buses are pretty nice. Columbus, Ohio, USA has some from New Flyer, and they're a lot quieter than the deafening natural gas buses. The US has virtually no competition for bus makers though, so I'd be interested to experience some of the European or Chinese ones. Never going to happen here though...

I had a lecture for an aerospace class a few years back. What the professor said is "what is a perfect gas?" - what the caption software produced is "what is a prefect ass?"

Captioning is hard, man...

Well, it's important. If you're injured by a direct blast effect of a nuclear weapon, insurance needs a way to quickly reject that! After all, you didn't get nuclear coverage on your plan!
