For anyone who doesn’t read the article, the biases shown in the thumbnail are not the final result. After doing a million runs, every digit had close to the same probability of appearing.

Set up a cheap VPS on DigitalOcean or the like, and run a Tailscale exit node. Put Tailscale on your devices at home (or get a 2nd router that allows you to run Tailscale on it) and join them to the same Tailnet. That’s the easiest way to accomplish this without getting too far into the weeds.

I started using eM Client for mail on Windows, and its calendar integration is pretty decent too. It’s paid software, but you only have to pay once.

Because you turned a completely innocuous discussion about nude beaches into an unhinged rant about sexualizing children. Nudity does not inherently mean sexual.

A short comment like “yeah I don’t know how I’d feel about children at a nude beach” would have been fine, but the extent to which you’re talking about it comes off as creepy and projecting.

I’d recommend Linux Mint honestly. It’s popular enough that they can find solutions to common problems, has a Windows-like interface, and it mostly “just works” on common hardware. Printer drivers, networking, and audio all worked out of the box for me. Cinnamon is lightweight but powerful, and the Mint theme looks really good on it. The default package repos have everything you’re likely to need, and the software manager tool is easy to use.

I’m not aware of a single jurisdiction on the planet that makes Tesla liable for what the vehicle does when autopilot is enabled. In order to activate autopilot you have to accept about 3 different disclaimers on the car’s screen that state VERY clearly how you are still responsible for the vehicle and you must intervene if it starts behaving dangerously.

I’ve been driving with autopilot for over 2 years, and while it has done some stupid stuff before (taking wrong turns, getting in the wrong lane, etc.), it has NEVER come close to hitting another vehicle or person. Any time something out of the ordinary happens, I disengage autopilot and take over.

Never had any major issues in my past decade of using iOS. Minor bugs here and there, sure, but it mostly just works.

When I traveled across the world last year it took me 5 minutes to sign up for a temporary cell plan in the country I was visiting, then install the eSIM from my phone’s web browser. I didn’t have to plan ahead and wait for them to mail me a SIM card so I could juggle around SIMs while abroad. I much prefer that over a physical SIM card.

Oh hey, I know where this is. I’ve been here before. This is near Surprise, Arizona.

Cotton Lane is a road with cotton fields on either side of it for miles. There’s a prison nearby as well as the town of Surprise and the local zoo. This is all near Luke Air Force Base, west of Phoenix.

Too bad they don’t have an option for “I just don’t want to use Edge”. Especially with how hard Microsoft is pushing it, that just makes me want to use it less.
