"If the plane is too far north or too cold it has problems sensing its location, sometimes also caused by solar activity, so that's what's going on"
Good job on this 737-9MAX Boeing, you're a real pro. My fucking iPhone has better GPS than the plane I guess
Why is the GPS module even outside the plane where it can get cold in the first place
ICE is using a Palantir tool that uses Medicaid and other government data to stalk people for arrest. This is exactly the kind of data privacy abuse that EFF has been warning about.Electronic Frontier Foundation
requests from *blocked* instances or accounts you wouldn't see at all, those must be merely *limited*, and quite possibly with good reason, which is why they still go through manual approval.

Here's some silliness with this Macintalk speak windo thing people have been playing with lately.
I tried to have it sing the Casio VL tone song without using an external wave form by constructing a new voice based on "good news", but apparently, I ran into a length limit, or something, so it kind of broke.

I’ve documented a clean, native way to integrate FreeBSD 15 into a FreeIPA realm. No heavy dependencies, no Python shims, just pure Kerberos (GSSAPI) and nslcd.

A clean approach to integrating FreeBSD 15 into a FreeIPA realm using native components - Kerberos for authentication, LDAP for identity, and no local user management.blog.hofstede.it
this looks correct, almost identical to how I've done it at $corp jobs but we didn't use freeIPA
only thing missing is putting the sudo rules in LDAP too

> If “AI” is actually more expensive that paying actual people actual wages that’s still a good investment for capital because it is about breaking up the structures, networks and organizations that help workers organize and fight for labor standards and fairer wages.
With studies upon studies showing that actual measurable productivity gains through “AI” (which these days basically means chatbots) are really hard to come by and that “workslop” (meaning the extra work created for the rest of the organization by on…tante (Smashing Frames)
I remember explaining this exact use case to Very Serious People at multiple non-profits who had received literal millions of dollars to research privacy, and these Very Serious People assured me that could never happen.
I quit these places with joy because these folks were myopic assholes who allowed their privilege to exacerbate harms.
One of these fuckers told me "but I like the ads - they help me see what sneakers I should buy."

Is it dangerous to use a rusting microwave?
Ours is rusting (and has been for some time), a friend offered us her spare one. Housemate says no because ours still works & rust isn't a problem.
Any evidence or info anyone can provide?

Also might potentially explain some of the WiFi issues we're having?
