Most of the stuff on YT kids already feels like it’s AI generated. I can’t imagine what it’s going to turn into once they go full AI or what kind of damage it may cause.

Assuming it’s like the others then I believe they will treat it as an investment loss which allows them to take some percentage of the loss as a tax deduction.

I don’t know how the law works but suspect it makes an eventual return to any form of media unlikely.

Cloudflare yes. Even if you aren’t using tunnels it will help obfuscate your real ip. If you are hosting personal services you can also block access from countries you don’t expect to access them from.

Also it seems most bots scanning domains are checking www and the base domain url. I recommend pointing those at a vps or something like GitHub or substack if you don’t need it for something else.

Use a reverse proxy that 404s anything besides the subdomains you are actually using. Always use wildcard certs to avoid exposing subdomains and obfuscate your subdomains for common services to make them hard to guess.

Isolate your servers from the rest of your network with vlans if possible.

You will never be fully immune so all you can do is add more layers and roadblocks.

In this world nothing can be said to be certain except death taxes and you server going down.

Careful now, the model that is referenced defines the lifecycle of battery EVs as 16 years and hybrid and combustion as 18 years. Normalizing fuel production and maintenance to 18 years would put the BEV at 43.

It’s also assuming that you would use a single battery pack until the end of life of the vehicle and that we are steadily progressing towards 100% fossil free energy production (targeting 2033 as the completion date).

Global adoption rates, change resistance, production rates, raw material availability, economic impact, leaders who care more about power and money.. I just don’t know that it’s feasible and the burden is all being placed on the lower and middle classes.

Why are we relying on politicians to help out our neighbors?

Another 63 million on Medicare and yet it's still a bandaid on a gaping wound that might get ripped off any minute.

Point Salad has been a big hit and I’ll back up what others have said about Bohnanza.

I’m tempted to recommend Cat in the Box as a new take on trick taking but I haven’t had the chance to introduce it to non boardgamers yet. It’s a very cool concept but the abstraction of suits could be a bit much for some folks.

This is only meaningful to people on Medicare or Medicaid because Executive Orders only give the President the power to guide federal agencies (in the executive branch).

It's a rather meaningless gesture to be honest. If a President can do something via EO then another President can undo it just as easily.

The block feature is your friend. Use it liberally and don’t feel bad about it.

Seriously, if everyone blocked communities they disagree with or aren’t interested in instead of resorting to the old toxic behaviors that would be a huge improvement.

I've mostly seen the laptop being related to the accusations of quid quo pro between Hunter, Joe, and some Ukrainian businessmen or officials. The same accusations as the FBI informant.

There were a bunch of photos and emails from the laptop but it seems they mostly just want to use it against Joe.

VS Community edition is kind of the demo/education version of Microsoft's paid line of IDEs. It's been a long time since I used the community version so I can't say if the community edition would make for a great daily driver but I use the paid version every day and it has a lot of great tools that make my work a lot easier.

Unfortunately it seems they cut some of the essential debugging tools out in the free version. The Pro/Enterprise editions are out of most folks price range so the paid line is mostly used by folks who get it through work. I guess it may still be worth giving a try if you intend to work on any of the MS developed technologies.

For personal projects I usually use VSCode. It has some unusual quirks due to being designed around extensions but those extensions really turn it into the swiss army knife of IDEs. The "Remote Development" extension especially has been great with my homelab projects as it lets me edit files on my headless Linux VMs from my Windows PC in a relatively user friendly IDE.
