That is the iPhone 15 in a nutshell. The whole thing (event) could have been an email newsletter. 🤡😂 There are likely physics limitations to creating a longer-lasting battery, but I am not an expert in this area. It might be theoretically possible for modem phones, but I just don't know.

Do you like it when browsers share any function of your browsing history with every random website you visit to target Ads? Well, get ready, Google Chrome pushes ahead with targeted ads based on your browser history https://www.theregister.com/2023/09/06/google_privacy_popup_chrome/ #privacy #security

@nixCraft Not surprising, and I expect most browsers do (or will do) the same. But I don't use Chrome since Google's digital gangster attack on Canadian sovereignty and won't use them until they stop the extortion. Ditto with Meta (FB and Threads). @nixCraft You can avoid paying for cats, by adopting a stray cat. I'd recommend that instead of going to a pet shop as you'll also help a bit by keeping care of the animals around you, instead of bringing ones which are strangers to your place.

@nixCraft I had it in college and it was hands-down the best and most effective way to really screw something up…until I leaned C which allowed me to screw lots of things up at the same time. @nixCraft I feel the wording needs "eve-e-e-entually" somewhere in there. :blobfoxsmirk: On 25 August 1991, Linus at age 21 announced Linux project/system in a Usenet posting to the newsgroup. Here is original email that changed IT world forever. Happy Birthday, #Linux kernel.

Not that I need to hear the @atpfm guys complain some more about Apple’s feedback/radar system… but this definitely made me think about their conversation(s)

@nixCraft Editors...there are more of them than flavors of religion. We tend to stick with what works for us when we devoted the time to learn the weirdness unique to _that_ editor. For me it's DEC's TPU, that is EVE; only that's no longer an option for me. Now I'm wandering in the desert seeking a replacement. Nothing seems to measure up. WTF? Uninstall the Nightowl App, now. Spread the word. https://robins.one/notes/uninstall-the-nightowl-app-now.html @nixCraft One of many reasons why I have such excellent control over what comes in and goes out of my connection. I could easily stop this from communicating with it's C2 servers easily. I was able to do the same with Luminati/Bright Data by blocking their domains and DigitalOcean IPs. @nixCraft Should also clarify that this is NOT the NightOwl app that one would use with the NightOwl branded CCTV cameras.

@nixCraft "You plug in the cat5 cable right-" Looks down, "Oh I see you've already got one plugged in." Your first website is going to suck. TL;DR: Your first attempts may not be perfect, but keep trying. Perseverance is key.

@nixCraft To expand on this, "Comparison is the thief of joy." Don't rob yourself of the joy of creating something just because someone with years or decades of experience could "do it better". They walked in the same shoes as you did, the only way they got to where they are is because they didn't fear failure, they kept working hard, and most importantly they kept learning. Nobody is born a "natural". We all have to crawl before we walk and walk before we can run.

The first time this happened to me, I showed up to a formal event wearing sandals, a t-shirt proclaiming the greatness of Linux, and jeans. Despite my casual attire, I was allowed entry by the security team, who recognized me as being from the IT department and assumed I was there to ensure the computers were functioning properly. LOL. (1/2)

I have a love / hate relationship with nano. I love it because it is console based, and modeless unlike vi. I hate hate hate those default key bindings. Solved that issue with .nanorc customizations.

@nixCraft Never! Unless you have brought your sleeping bag with you. Also don't forget clean 🩲 🩲 for the weekend at the office. LOL
@nixCraft @janriemer A majority of companies cannot push to production on Friday as they are far away from CI/CD/DevOps for the majority of their IT and still think in Day1/Day2.
@nixCraft
Ha ha, yes.
