It’s also about making sure you can’t sue them, even if they did something wrong, even if they did it on purpose, even if they knew it was wrong when they did it.
Instead you must agree to “binding arbitration”, so that if you lose they get to learn what strategy works against customers, and if you win they get to learn what strategy doesn’t work against customers (but in any case the details cannot be shared with other customers).
Also, you can never participate in a class action suit, so even if they did do something wrong, on purpose, and you convinced a -judge- arbiter, you just get the $12 judgment, or whatever the value is of your actual damages. The corporation can keep the $12 they stole from each of their millions of other customers, who didn’t also start arbitration.
It is shocking that it is even legal
The -p <port> option can be used to specify the port number to connect to when using the ssh command on Linux. The -P <port> (note: capital P) option can be used with SFTP and scp.
Why is it that the switch on ssh is -p but in scp/sftp it is -P?
This has caused me a real headache in the past as ssh doesn’t throw an error message when you use a switch like “ssh -P 8080”
God bless America
Don’t have to wait in line if you can’t afford to go in the first place
Taps head
Is this post a paradox?
TIL about error 418:
“I’m a teapot This server is a teapot, and it cannot brew coffee.”
Apparently it was originally added as an April fools joke way back in 1998 but technically it is a valid error message that sites can actually use!
How could you not include the classic printer lp0 on fire!
I actually got that one around 2010 on Ubuntu. The printer wasn’t actually on fire. If I recall it was caused by the network attached printer losing connection during a job
Huh, I can hear this meme
Suppose you were saying that about me. How would I prove you wrong? How could a thinking being express that it is actually sentient to meet your standards?
Also, I have never, ever actually received a so-called participation trophy. As far as I know they made it up just to be dicks
Maybe an app like FakeStandby would work.
If your device has an AMOLED screen it should be basically the same as having the screen turned off. You could just disable the screen timeout and use FakeStandby to turn off all the pixels without actually “turning off” the screen
you aren’t necessarily yet violating GPLv2, but you’re removing a technical protection measure which is a violation of the DMCA.
Isn’t overcoming a technical limit a violation itself? That’s what made DeCSS illegal. They didn’t have to prove anyone was actually copying DVDs with it, just that DeCSS could allow you to copy a DVD
That looks like Google Sheets, so on Firefox you can use the Dark Reader extension to invert the color
Agh! Light mode!
This was my thought too. Whenever you open one of these Dells you always see swollen, leaky capacitors. They can cause some very odd behavior, such as only booting exactly one in three times.
Theoretically, it should be relatively straightforward to find and replace them if you were really dedicated
I got it to launch but I only got about 15 FPS.
So it is at least possible. My PC is pretty outdated so it might work for you if you have a good graphics card with good drivers
I certainly love it! It’s one of the first things I install
Hosting video content must be insanely expensive so I have some amount of sympathy for YouTube. However, ads earn such a paltry amount that I can hardly fathom how anyone can put up with it.
The total amount of ad revenue between all sites is only like $12 per user per year. So IMO it is a net benefit to block all ads (save your sanity!) and simply pay the creators of content you like.
Even just one $5 Patreon sub is worth more than all ads I’m likely to see so I block everything I can and IMO my conscience is clear
When I got LASIK I wasn’t allowed to wear contacts for a few weeks before the surgery. I bought the cheapest pair of glasses from Zenni. I had new glasses for $17 + $10 shipping.
If I had to do it again I would have my IPD measured by a proper optometrist first. I just guessed at it and got ones a little too small, so they had a kind of fisheye effect.
Still, for <$30 it was a great bargain
