  • We're really consuming them at an alarming rate. Soon, the only affordable ones will have either 20+ characters, a sus TLD, or just be a nonsensical string nobody can pronounce.

  • I guess the dumb one just shows a number, the smart one will also tell you "it's not bones or muscles but fat, dumbass" and tell a data broker so the health insurance company can update your plan accordingly

  • The house I live in is all brick walls and my 12-year-old phone (Sony Xperia Z) has connectivity issues just 5 m and one wall away, RSSI of -70 dBm and below unless in specific places and orientations. Radios have improved quite a bit since.

  • I don't see why a hub shouldn't be able to supply power... it will disable PD modes and limit everything to 5V though

  • Just make sure to use it on 5V-only chargers. You can glue it to one of them.

  • This is a great time for the engineer to exert leverage.

    "Yes, I can fix it in hours. Here are my demands:

    • $200,000
    • I'll also push a firmware update to all your devices that allows setting any address for the server and exposes all functionality in a Home Assistant API, and you won't ever disable this in current or future devices
    • You'll offer a free locally-connected button/knob device to any customer owning an affected product, or a free service to upgrade the products with on-device controls
    • In any social media posts, press releases, customer communication or interviews regarding today's outage, you have to say that plumbing that requires a server connection is a bad idea

  • Catbox works for me. I did click the link and was disappointed that the phrase refers to biochemistry and dancing, not optics and spheres.

  • The Photodegradation Ball

  • The thumbnail did not load and I thought photodegradation ball was the object described in the second question on the xkcd's What If? Short Answers page:

    What if you shined a flashlight (or a laser) into a sphere made of one-way mirror glass?

  • If you crop the extra white space at the top, this meme has the √2̅:1 (or 2:√2̅) aspect ratio, which I find more pleasing than the "golden ratio", perhaps because I'm so used to A4 paper

  • They are keeping around so many deprecated features for internal use and whatnot, I would be surprised if they did remove this registry check.

    Until Windows 12 is released, you can always use an old ISO and then update to the newest version.

  • The command (C:\Windows\System32) OOBE\bypassnro (.cmd) one types into the command prompt (after opening it with Shift+F10) for the bypass is the location of a batch file they will be removing (the parenthesized parts are optional, implied by the command interpreter, and so is any capitalization). You can still do whatever it's doing (adding a registry key and restarting) by typing the command manually or providing a copy of the file on a USB drive. After a restart, the OS will check for the registry key AND lack of internet connection to provide the local account option.

    For the record, the contents of the file are

     batch
        
@echo off
reg add HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\OOBE /v BypassNRO /t REG_DWORD /d 1 /f
shutdown /r /t 0

    The first line is optional, and so is the third if you're OK with restarting manually. If creating the file on Unix-based systems, make sure the newline sequence is CRLF (DOS/Windows standard).

    Obligatory shoutout to literally any Linux distro, which does not need this workaround, and is usually easier to install and set up than debloating a fresh Windows 11 install.
