All they need to do is let people keep their original bsky handle when they switch to domain verification. You’d still see some copycat accounts, but the barrier of entry is now higher as it would require someone to purchase a lookalike domain name

Excel, Active Directory, and to a somewhat lesser degree MSSQL.

Good. This should be forced via regulations. Touchscreen controls are provably more dangerous than buttons due to the distraction.

This makes perfect sense to me.

At the start of your career, you want to be important enough that people will care about your opinions, which means getting invited to meetings where things are discussed.

Stage 2, you’ve been there long enough and know how things work so you can offer input and help make decisions.

Stage 3 is the point at which people will come to you for input outside of meetings because that’s easier. You just want to do your job and generally don’t care about decisions anymore unless they bring sweeping changes.

I am not a material scientist, but I would wonder if molten metals would radiate too much heat to the environment causing an efficiency loss

Sometimes people do the right thing for the wrong reasons.

My certs have all expired, but when I started I didnt have any at all.

The thing that worked for me was to apply to small businesses(Look into local MSPs). Places that have ~20 employees have much less rigor about certs and will more likely test that you’re amicable enough to mesh with the rest of the team. From there you can build experience and often get thr company to pay for your certs.

NTP is the one that comes to mind for me.

Basically every device uses it and until fairly recently was maintained by a single person

This is one of those weird things that venture capital does sometimes.

VC is is injecting cash into tech right now at obscene levels because they think that AI is going to be hugely profitable in the near future.

The tech industry is happily taking that money and using it to develop what they can, but it turns out the majority of the public don’t really want the tool if it means they have to pay extra for it. Especially in its current state, where the information it spits out is far from reliable.

believe it or not, jail.

I miss when viruses were fun instead of extortionate

I tend to just check uptime before asking this question.

If I see the machine has been up for weeks and they tell me they rebooted it, I know i’m dealing with someone who doesn’t know that pressing the power button on the monitor doesn’t turn the computer off.

With removable batteries is that there is actually a legitimate reason for getting rid of them, in that it’s much harder to waterproof a device with a removable battery.

I’d still like to see the option available, but I can at least understand why it’s not from a practical standpoint. The only reason carrier locks exist is to increase the cost of change for the end user, making them less likely to switch providers.

Its the best when you buy an LP and get a download code for the album as well.

I listen to LPs mostly when I want music to be the primary thing im doing. There is a whole ritual involved with putting a record on. Whereas, sometimes I just want to listen to something while I’m doing dishes or driving, and then playing an MP3 over a Bluetooth speaker from my phone is just infinitely more convenient.

Should the machine’s operating system be calculated in the storage too?

I’m positive that David Cronenberg had no idea what a video game was when he made that movie

Honestly, with the unfathomable amount of money he was set the make from that deal, I dont blame him for doing it.

It’s a good message too, if you ignore who said it and why.

The first release of windows 11 LTSC is supposed to be out sometime this year too.

Much like the 10 version, I expect it to have most of the bloat removed and only require a couple tweaks.

Use it to program an functional DOS emulator for MacOS 8?
