The passing and scrum rules also change the game. There’s less chance for an unexpected and dangerous hit in rugby. More shove, less hard contact.

US football dispensed with most of the rules of international rugby years ago. Gridiron would make sense though.

90 cents per charge? And no cable that you discover after you’ve pulled up to the charger is broken?

Seems like this will pay for itself in short order at fast charging stations.

Superfluous “a”

That’s the question, isn’t it?

Can you actually buy a (new) car in 2025?

One way to tell: disable the cellular modem in your car and see if it still operates.

I use TP Link C100 cameras in local network mode and a Reolink doorbell in a similar manner. Standard RTSP feeds and an internal mini web server, plus plenty of privacy controls.

Both of these products are pretty cheap considering their configurability — they do both provide the option to do the whole cloud subscription thing, but work fine for me without it. I have Home Assistant on the back end to manage live streams, but find I usually just read data off the internal SD card instead.

They used existing archives; the pages were actually archived earlier. But they could only incorporate the pages that had actually been archived, which was mostly major services (Geocities, ProHosting, Lycos, etc) and public institutions.

The Wayback Machine started saving web pages in 1996. I’ve got Geocities pages I created at the time where that’s the only way I can access them now.

The frustrating thing for me is that Wayback only saved web pages; all the Gopher pages and FTP pages just vanished.

Now I’m imagining someone making 💩: their default boot drive.

My neighbors have one of these… I’m pretty sure they didn’t get permission for it. It probably feeds back into mains if the power is out.

It’s well pasta time….

By retirement?

I’d expect majority shares in any company I worked that much for, AND a 7-figure salary.

And retirement would be in 5 years.

Revive a debate? Really? In that case, I’m reviving the debate for redistributing Murthy’s net wealth to all citizens as UBI.

There’s nothing saying that you can’t have a global decentralized network, but the Internet Protocol is pretty central to the network we call the Internet.

It should be… Ankh-Morpork is the US, not Greenland.

Why did people immediately connect Night Watch with GoT’s Night’s Watch, when there’s both a perfectly good book and TV miniseries by the name that seems much more apropos?

I mean, has anyone ever seen them at the same time?

Or milkshakes.
