It’s pretty disheartening to help someone find old media and they show a giant box of USB sticks and hard drives.
Equally disheartening is knowing that both of those have a shelf-life. Old USB flash drives are more durable than the TLC/QLC cells we use today, but 15 years sitting unpowered in a box doesn’t have very good prospects.
I would say it’s worth a complaint that you’re barely getting a tenth of the speed you’re paying for, but with cable/broadband, there’s a million and one potential causes for throughput being degraded and Cox customer support is useless.
Is the node saturated? Is there a coaxial splitter in your wall blocking high-frequency signals? Is the run from the node to your house too long or noisy? What about the run from your house to the DOCSIS modem? Is there interference somewhere? Are there coaxial ports unnecessarily connected and degrading the signal? Did they just bond the minimum number of channels to reach the theoretical maximum of 500 Mbps under perfect conditions?
Who knows! Cox doesn’t know, and Cox doesn’t care. But hey, maybe you can be tricked into spending another $20 for even more unfulfilled promises!
Cox is really living up to their namesake of being a bunch of dicks.
You are also getting Max subscription plan with this, This will completely boost up your internet speed and you will be amazed by the higher speed and smooth service.
Oh, so smooth. Doubling that arbitrary throughout limit will obviously improve latency and jitter. I always have my network fully saturated all day, every day /s
Everything will be super fast and when you stream or browse there will be no buffering or interruptions and you will have a great experience
Yes, because buffering is caused by your inability to download 62 more megabytes of video a second. It’s totally not because the server isn’t sending video fast enough or anything. Fucking slimeball.
I knew exactly what your story was going to be about by the end of the first sentence. It’s so common that it’s immediately predictable. Fuck BofA and their bullshit.
When it comes to compliance and regulations, anything with the literal blast radius of a nuclear reactor should not be trusted to LLM unless double or triple checked by another party familiar with said regulations. Regulations were written in blood, and an LLM hallucinating a safety procedure or operating protocol is a disaster waiting to happen.
I have less qualms about using it for menial paperwork, but if the LLM adds an extra round-trip to a form, it’s not just wasting the submitter’s time, but other people’s as well.
JavaScript was a mistake, but this is one of the few things they did correctly. Implicitly importing everything from a package into the current scope makes it difficult to follow where variables or functions come from, and it’s prone to cause problems when two packages export the same identifier.
If you’re an absolute masochist, there’s always a workaround. Against all best practices, you can use the deprecated with statement. Or, you can Object.assign() the packages into the global object like a monster. Or if you’re using node, you can use the node:vm module to create a new V8 context with its own global object of your choosing.
"If you feel like your government is not representing your needs as a citizen, your best course of action would be to vote for a different political party."
I should vote for Democrats?
I'm sorry, I misunderstood your question. If your government is not representing your needs as a citizen, you should contact your local representative. Here is the email address: representative@localhost
You would think that the guy who produced two movies that are thinly veiled criticisms of humanity exploiting the environment and disturbing native inhabitants for profit would not be supporting the exploitative shit that uses as much electricity as an entire city.
If the passwords were properly salted, it wouldn’t. But if they’re not salted, helloooooo rainbow tables. Or the world’s greatest crossword puzzle, like that one Adobe accidentally made. Maybe even both!
Look for used parts or machines recycled as part of a corporate hardware refresh. They won’t be top of the line, but it’s better than paying double the price for something that’s already expensive.
More importantly, with what money? Mega corporations can afford to draw out lawsuits until the end of time (or until the judge gets annoyed), but individuals can’t.
“Mr. President, can you explain the recent market plunge, and whether they were an intended effect of the reciprocal tariff plan?”
“The plunge? Fake news. There is no plunge, the only plunge is our plunge towards making America great again. The Democrats don’t want it, they’re selling off like crazy. Numbers never seen before. The tariffs are working, Canada is scared. Mexico is scared. Europe, China, Antarctica, all of them scared. They’re nothing” without us and they know it. But the Democrats, the Democrats. Corrupt Democrats are trying to undermine the greatest tariffs plan America has ever seen. They’re lying about the economy, tricking the banks to sell. But that’s fine, it’s fine. It’s their loss, they want to lose. The real winners, Elon, Pete, and other real hardworking Americas know this. They buy.
They’re affionados of /pol/itically incorrect views. I chose that specific board for a reason :)
They do have a sense of taste… it’s just overwhelmingly rancid.
It’s more like a donut. Not all 4chan posters are DOGE staff, but all DOGE staff are /pol/ afficionados.
Someone should check the email and phone number of Adrian Dittman to see if they match Elon’s. Idiots can argue that it isn’t Elon despite speech pattern evidence, but it’s harder to argue when both of them share the same identifying info.
Uh… what? They only thing they have in common is following the POSIX standard. The moment you step outside of that POSIX lowest common denominator, it becomes abundantly clear just how different they are.
Overwatch should be illegal in there anyway because of the “gay propaganda”
Good luck with that one. As long as Overwatch is free to play, they can just make new accounts with an EU VPN. No way to tie the account owner to their country of origin unless they fork over that info voluntarily, such as by having to make an online purchase.
Source? That would be useful for helping convince friends/family to switch to Linux and LibreOffice.
