This is great until your job outgrows a single computer or you want to have redundancy. Also, chains of bash tools don’t have the best error management when something chokes in one of the middle steps in the pipe. You can still leverage simple bash tools for a lot of the under the hood stuff, but you start needing something more to act as the glue petty quickly when you scale. KISS should still apply.

He’s already started with the rants against the network to create the excuse for him fucking this up. Everything that doesn’t go his way is always someone else’s fault. Most toddlers are more mature and accountable.

They have burned out their own bullshit.

When every single opponent is the most radical left extremist who ever walked the face of the earth, it becomes meaningless ramblings even to their base. Just like crooked Hilary, Obama, Biden, Harris.

He’s not on the unfinished Empire State Building because the finished building is behind him.

Looks like something in midtown. Maybe Rockefeller Building?

All that I can picture is a tug o war where one side is struggling and the other side lets go, and they all fall down. Only in this video you hear pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop as the line lets go.

Wasn’t Gooch Gary Coleman’s bully on Different Strokes?

Look at mister fancy pants with and assembler.

How about entering straight opcode, operand with only a hex keypad and two pairs of 7 segment LEDs. You can only see one set of numbers at a time. You had to write it out on paper to be able to keep track and count positions so you don’t use your spot.

I had to do this as a project in school. Two 8088 units that we breadboarded to a UART that we used to drive a fiber optic link to communicate with each other with a basic protocol. All descrete components hand wired and coded.

It made you tie all of skills together into a full system of hardware and software.

The flip side is that now that cars have zero ashtrays, most smokers just throw the butts out the window.

The LED elements last a lifetime, but the driver transistors burn out as frequently as traditional bulbs

This seems the most likely reason. It is sort of like they teach in first aid. You don’t say someone call 911 because everyone thinks someone else will. You need to tell one person directly.

The problem here is that it is not a group of untrained bystanders stumbling upon a surprise emergency. There is supposed to be a pre-established chain of command and group to take these reports and ensure that they are investigated.

Hell, I was part of events where governors made appearances, and the county had their communication command post setup and even gave radios and a briefing to our volunteers at gates and all of the area leads to report anything directly to the command post.

Christian excuse: Jesus technically wasn’t a Christian either.

Isn’t a score in the 70’s borderline mentally disabled?

You have mistakenly assumed that the GOP wants or cares about democracy.

Forget about the content. If any company spam text/emails me about any political bullshit I’ll ban/boycott them just for wasting my fucking time. Fuck spammers.

6.60 eu is about $7.13 usd

In NJ US $7-$8 a pint is normal for Guinness /import or craft beers. The lite piss water domestic beers are usually a dollar or two less.

The guy really doesn’t look like he knows what he’s doing. The lady picks up on it and promptly nopes the fuck out of there.

How much do you want to bet that the source is somebody trying to sell some sort of snake oil claiming to boost testosterone.

Meth-10

NDAs more often protect strategic information than some big secret.

Stuff like when they will release something, pricing, etc. It really means nothing to 99% of the planet and will mean nothing in a month, but a competitor can use the information to make counter moves.

For commodity online services, you are lucky that people even give you their email address. The number of people who provide anything more is extremely low. OP is freaking out that they are emailing. If they called him on the phone, he would lose his shit.

The terms of service explicitly state that any communications and legal notices about the services will be delivered via the email address that must be verified at sign up. It is not unreasonable to ask customers to provide a valid way to send them service related messages.

Google isn’t going to call you or send you old-school paper mail when they discontinue a service. Even if they did, 99% of people would think that it was a scam.

All that being said, we will always scream test things like EOL of a service just to catch anyone who missed the communications.
