  • Cisco announces record revenue and 4,000 layoffs in the same day

    Jump

  • But that will be a problem for the next guy.

  • I still have a bunch of them

    Jump

  • I have one that's mostly broken, which isn't a surprise as I took it from e-waste.When I tried to burn a disc with it, it suddenly started accelerating out of control and I had to kill the power to it. It almost shattered the disc:

    Clearly that wasn't burning it quite well.

    But there's another interesting thing. It won't read CDs. Except, somehow, VLC manages to get something out of it. It's earrape, and the recording from VLC ends up corrupted, but FFMPEG can still process it as raw audio (and so can aplay).Here's a sample:https://files.catbox.moe/bkwt82.flacAudio should embed on desktop:

  • Bitwarden's new CEO has a Private Equity background, removed 'Inclusion' and 'Always Free' from their website -- because of course he did

  • Full circle to sticky notes on monitor.

  • Twin brothers wipe 96 gov't databases minutes after being fired

  • No, that was a bit different.login: nbusrpassword: nbusr123

  • Google

    Jump

  • I've been using uBlock to get rid of it.At some point the provided AI blocklist didn't work, but element picker took care of that fairly easily.

  • What is something that most people normally do that you find weird?

    Jump

  • People being noisy on public transport.

    Loud talking, people playing audio on speakers, parents who don't give a fuck about their ear-piercing screaming machines, etc...

    When I am on a train/tram/bus and, say, get a call, I'll decline it and send the person a text stating that I can't call right now as I am in a vehicle.

    Usually I can avoid noise by using first class. People there tend to talk far less, and they don't bring kids there. That's about all 1st class has to offer around here. Avoiding people.Oh, sometimes the 1st class can even be fairly empty. Like, 1 or 2 people in the carriage type empty. Especially nice with compartment carriages. That way I can be all alone. Which also means I can turn off lights and crank up AC in the compartment. Or open the window, which I'll regret at the first screeching of brakes. Damn loud.

  • A web page that shows you everything the browser told it without asking

    Jump

  • Obvious, the address of where you pee.

  • Tesla Recalls Cybertruck Because Wheels May Fall Off

    Jump

  • Cloudflare to fire 1,100 staff whose jobs just aren’t AI enough

    Jump

  • Employees across the company from engineering to HR to finance to marketing run thousands of AI agent sessions each day to get their work done

    Meanwhile the employees:

  • [SOLVED] Is there any (known) way to use warp-cli without blocking incoming connections?

    Jump

  • The Cloudflare bit, at least their consumer product in question only works as a public VPN (such as Mullvad, IVPN, etc...), meaning it's more of an encrypted proxy. So it doesn't counter anything.Why it blocks incoming connections on other interfaces ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯It only makes sense for it to capture all outgoing connections not destined to split-tunneled IP ranges, as to prevent leaks.

  • gasoline powered laptop

    Jump

  • Or, hear me out, build a remote nuclear power plant, set up long cables to get the electricity to your laptop, and sell the excess power for profit.

  • I also use that, and it's just all over the place.I've had issues with my carrier, so I just used foreign SIM in roaming for a while. €11 for 40GB is not that bad.

    And then I found I can't purchase a train ticket. For some reason, ZSSK (Slovakian passenger railway company) blocked IPs of Lifecell (Ukrainian MNO), but was fine with IP from RackNerd (Virginia).

    Oh, and the university I am at blocks IPs from "3rd world countries", the result of which was that Asburn, Virginia is fine, but somehow New York is a 3rd world country.Their instructions say to use any EU-based VPN.

    OneDrive uploads would only work for me over Mullvad without crashing.

    I also had Reddit block Czech T-Mobile IPs.

  • I have a weird one I like too. If you're willing to try random food crimes, eventually something works out. It's not based on "this sounds good", rather a curiosity, "what does this do together".Only try in small volumes!

    Last time, I tried sour gummy worms with Olivier (?) potato salad. That was not one of those. It wasn't bad, their taste was just too weak to do anything, and the texture doesn't fit.

    But one that I do like is poppy seed roll with ketchup.

  • ‘Your phone is about to stop being yours': anger brewing among Android fans as major Google app change draws near

    Jump

  • Which just seems stupid. Smartphone is a computer. When you want to run something as administrator on Windows, it's just a Yes/No prompt away, and Windows isn't some small thing either.

  • Sounds like Australia to me.

  • When the devs actually care

    Jump

  • Very much outside US as well: https://mullvad.net/en/help/partnerships-and-resellers

    Yesterday I tried Proxy Store for the first time (previously I used German Amazon), I'll see how that ends up. Though I wasn't able to pay with card, because PayPal. Apparently, we now have instant bank transfers accross entire SEPA, so it was sent out on the same day.

  • When the devs actually care

    Jump

  • I used to send €10 O_oMostly because I liked getting all the different stamps to send it with.

    It would take quite a while in the end. Print address to envelope, print code, insert money, close envelope, take out all the stamps, calculate the combination to get right value, check the available stock for each stamp, recalculate (no way I am using ones out of stock), take a soft brush, dip in water, wet the stamps, stick them on, make sure they're on well, let dry, take to mailbox, wait up to 10 days for it to arrive and get credited.
