It looks like a complete rip-off. Both the design of the website and the book cover.

No thanks, I have all the files I need right here in /dev/urandom.

Did... did the AI in the video just do the Duolingo learning?

It's like a reverse get out of jail free card.

Do the other party have evidence against you? Declare classified documents and they go to jail instead of you.

Same for me. Slackware (I guess 4.0) and E16 was my first proper Linux installation. Learned so much during that time.

I remember playing GTA I with a 3DFX card. Man that was smooth. When I later played at a friends house, I was disappointed about how choppy it was.

I hope so. The other books have been great fun to read, with the detour of CP-SYSTEM as a nice surprise.

> Without DNS, you'd need to memorize IP addresses for every website.

This used to be true until virtual hosting came along, allowing for several domains to point to the same IP address, but only for non-HTTPS traffic. Then a bit later we got SNI (Server Name Indication) that did the same thing for HTTPS.

I remember having web servers with 10-12 public IP adresses when I started working. The number of IPv4 addresses needed has been greatly reduced since.

I started using the Berluti knot last year, and it has never failed me. It takes a bit longer to tie, but it has never failed me. It is also easy to get undone without making another knot out of itself.

The Secure variant seems to be a slightly easier/quicker knot. I might give it a try. :)

I have a plan of making it a "proper" webpage with more sub-pages for hobbies and such. But right now its a 90's style page with some info and a lot of links.

I read this as an ownership issue, where Meta owns your content as long as you post on Facebook or Instagram, and has nothing to do with LLMs.

I have a Roborock S5, and when I don't use the mop, I just remove the mop AND the water tank. And without the water tank it never gets stuck in doors.

I quit my 50% discount after realizing that if I don't watch it anyways.

Funny thing though. When I cancelled my subscription, they offered me 50% off for a month or something like that.

Still have the original Xbox, working like a charm. Not sure which version of XBMC it has, but the internal disk is full of old series and movies.

Still has a share on my computer mapped up, but the original Xbox can't keep up with the big files.

Or from the Seinfeld episode "The Pool Guy" (Aired November 1995) which had a fictional movie called "Chunnel" -- probably based on the very same channel tunnel.

This site is blocked at my workplace as well. A message from FortiGate says: "Category: Illegal or Unethical"

I'm looking at the graph, and in 2019 the text editor popularity combined was a whooping 117%!
