I’m an electrical engineer living in Los Angeles, CA.
SATA= Slow (Max 6 Gbps) PCIe = Fast (Max > 100 Gbps in theory)
This is the maximum rate from the drive to the motherboard. Many drives are fast enough that SATA works become the bottleneck. With PCIe, the drive can run at its full speed, whatever that may be.
Every time I see “lichess”, it makes me think about “lich-ess”, i.e., a female undead wizard.
Sadly, Firefox mobile got rid of about:config, and I can’t find any relevant options in the regular settings.
You can disable this “feature”:
Visit about:config
Set “dom.private-attribution.submission.enabled” to false
Full disk encryption doesn’t help with this threat model at all. A rogue program running on the same machine can still access all the files.
The event I’m referring to wasn’t OP’s photo. Mine was back in 2004 or 2005, long before Win10 was released.
Maybe? If I recall correctly, this was Windows XP. Also the computer was owned by the school, so the students didn’t have admin access.
I saw that happen once in a big presentation.
There was a team of students presenting their work to ~200 people. Right in the middle, a pop-up says updates are finished and the computer needs to restart. It has a helpful 60-second countdown, but “cancel” is grayed out, so all they can do is watch.
I was only in the audience and I still have nightmares.
This isn’t funny, this is just the sad state of software these days.
Joke’s on them: those aliens don’t perceive time, so the concept of pressing keys in sequence is impossible to convey.
These services are so useless. I have about a million years of free “monitoring” from all the data breeches. Whoever decided a year of useless false-alarms was an adequate remedy for a class-action settlement should be launched into the sun.
Don’t worry, this just means your job is safe from being replaced by AI. No search results means no training data.
Source for this claim?
That would be nice. Our admins don’t bother with anything like this, but they also block me from fixing things.
No bounds checking, only fast.
STOP! You have violated the law. Pay the court a fine or serve your sentence. Your stolen goods are now forfeit.
Simple solution: Don’t connect it to the Internet. Hackers hate this one weird trick.
My head canon is that Tony Stark has a superpower: everything he builds works the first time.
If it’s really complicated, like an entirely new Iron Man suit, then it might malfunction once in an amusing way. Then he tightens a screw and it’s perfect. It never fails outright or bricks itself.
In my experience, this is not how hardware or software development goes. I want this power so much.
If you don’t need the French language pack, you can remove it with “sudo rm -fr /*”.
