And Outlook. My quick sig is:

-- psud

But on Outlook it is

-- <ctrl-z>psud

The op image incorrectly used the singular when they meant the plural

I use them a lot

Minecraft has private servers (at least on Minecraft java) as well as their own server platform “Realms”, also every client is also a server. Though the authentication system is a Microsoft account so that’s likely to still be online well into the future

I don’t know how you could do that without staying exclusively on open source

I’m old enough that the games I’m nostalgic for are on floppy discs on my shelf, but now the games I play are downloaded and rely on whatever company keeping a server up to authenticate me

Who knows what Microsoft will do with Minecraft in 30 years

Who knows what Steam will do with the licences it’s sold me

I was allergic to cow milk products as a kid and usually had goat milk products, and even that tastes nothing like cow milk. I couldn’t imagine anything made of a plant being any kind of replacement for cow milk when a different pasture raised ruminant’s milk isn’t close enough

If I correctly recall the Hoffman video on frothing fake milk you need different temperatures and techniques compared to milk, and you get an inferior result

A stuck pedal turns the steering towards the barrier? I think the driver had a stroke or heart attack and stopped steering

At 3.18pm on 10 May 2018, Stefan Meier lost control of his Model S on the A2 highway near the Monte Ceneri tunnel. Travelling at about 100kmh (62mph), he ploughed through several warning markers and traffic signs before crashing into a slanted guardrail. “The collision with the guardrail launches the vehicle into the air, where it flips several times before landing,” investigators would write later.

The driver crashed, it doesn’t sound like it was in self driving mode.

Indeed, but cheaper than enough batteries to cover those times

In the off grid home scale one I’d size and set the generator to run for several hours in a row to fully charge the battery on days when the battery was at a sufficiently low charge entering the night, at least that’s what my current modelling suggests. Diesel gensets work best when running fully loaded for at least long enough to warm up

I guess at grid scale you find the sweet spot where most years the gas power station and batteries are balanced to provide cheapest power averaged over the year

The diagram shows that they fall short on winter mornings

My own modelling to decide what size battery I want for my house says it’s easy almost every day, but when you have three rainy and overcast days in a row you need a battery far larger or an alternative. For me the alternative is the grid; at grid scale it’s gas generators

I use keepass, it’s a little more work than many closed source ones, but it’s only as online as you want it to be, and runs on anything

My “smart” bulbs are at the less online end of the spectrum, they host local wifi or bluetooth for configuration via their app, but even that can bite you

I added a wifi range extender to address the problem of stuff at one end of the house regularly losing connection and needed to point one of a particular brand at the new wifi

Its app hadn’t been updated and I needed to dig out my old phone stuck on an old version of Android to set the bulb up again

You lost a bit of credibility when you misspelt atoms

The lemming I recently typed with about the end state of automation was absolutely sure that it’ll be fine, since government needs to appeal to the population

That government that has never cared about the population.

I use it mostly for family chats, I got the extended family to use it rather than Facebook Messenger

What makes you not trust signal as against WhatsApp?

You should be able to long press unwanted notifications and stop the system showing that class of notification or all notifications from some app

“Turn off” stops that class of notification from that app

Settings gear takes you to the notification section of the app that threw the notification and toggle any or all of that apps notifications

You can also get to the notification a couple of other ways:

• Settings/apps go to whatever app’s settings including notification settings
• In your switch application view tap the icon above the app’s card

I got depressed and pretty useless, she got sick of it and left

I don’t mind reading a blog post from the past like that. Maybe it’ll prompt some modern comments about real mode

What are the arguments

“Protect delicate children’s eyes from seeing nudity”

I think that’s about it
