  • people woho regularly go to fast food chains like Burger king - why?

  • Some people like the taste and don't mind paying for the convenience - full stop.

    Also the vegetarian option at most fast food places is generally more expensive and worse tasting

  • Ok, not in the US so idk. the last CFL bulb I bought was long before 2009.

    Either way, the brain still uses more power than a 13W CFL, and the tumblr post is from 2018, and the Reddit post is even more recent. "It would have been technically correct if it was posted 20 years ago" doesn't really change the fact that it's not true anymore

  • Yeah and LED bulbs were the norm 15-20 years ago. my point is this is a repost of a Reddit repost of a Tumblr comment that was reposting a factoid that was already wrong when it was originally posted 5-6 years ago.

  • Brain uses more wattage than a lightbulb, unless we are counting incandescent bulbs because it makes the stat seem more impressive.

  • Git doesn't automatically recursively add all files in the directory to the repository though - VSCode decided that should be the default behavior, while other editors (intellij) ask if you want to add newly created files to version control

  • Or if you are on a Boeing plane and a side panel/door spontaneously flies off off you don't get sucked out

    /s, but not really /s

  • Hetzner launches s3-compatible object storage

    Jump

  • It's really not that complicated. At a high level:

    • $5/mo for having the service turned on
    • $5/mo for every TB storage above and beyond the first 1TB
    • $1 for every TB of data transfer beyond the first 1TB in a month

    And then divide those numbers because it's actually billed by the hour

  • Authorities hack cryptocurrency seed phrase

    Jump

  • The word ‘decipher’ is doing a lot of heavy lifting. I’m wondering if they socially engineered or just found it written somewhere in the house?

    You can plausibly brute force up to 4, maybe 5 words of a seed phrase. It takes longer than a normal password because every seed phrase is technically valid, so the only way to know if your brute force is successful is to generate thousands of addresses at each of the different derivation paths you may expect funds to exist at.

    The same seed phrase is used for Bitcoin, Ethereum, Monero, etc, but each currency uses the seed phrase to generate addresses in a slightly different standard. Additionally, each wallet uses a slightly different variation of that. Within each wallet is a notion of accounts, and within each account you could have dozens of addresses. You need to generate each of those addresses, and scan each cryptocurrencies blockchain to see if those addresses have ever been used.

    Realistically one of three things happened: his seed phrase was written down and they found it, it was password protected or on a drive with weak AES encryption and they cracked THAT instead, or finally, he used a hardware wallet and they exploited a firmware vulnerability to lift the PIN and transfer out funds and/or read the seed from the device

  • Does Google Cloud not count as “own hardware” for google?

    That's why the bars are so different. The "cloud" price is MSRP

  • How do pagers work?

    Jump

  • Pagers operate at a lower broadcast frequency than cell phones. Longer wavelengths (low frequency) are less impeded by walls and interference.
