Success has many parents. Failure is an orphan.

I don’t know. In my country no gas can be paid unless the nozzle has been placed back. The machine registers as “still pumping”, and the gas station attendant sees this and cannot process the payment. Why you would do this any other way baffles my mind.

Knew a programmer that was near blind who only used magnifier on maximum zoom with his IDE. One of the best programmers I met, but his screen looked very much like that. Don’t know how he did it.

Well put, however I find code formatting itself has a shape, texture and smell. How the programmer weaves the patterns of formatting tells a lot about his mind and style.

Yeah you’ll get downvoted, because spending 5k on cold hamburgers from McDonald’s ist not something anybody would do. It’s something an idiot would do. Everyone with two brain cells would have started calling large restaurants or catering providers and ask them if they can make something happen.

It’s actually a Caipirinha. I think I remember drinking a freshly juiced one at a bar once.

Nightwind ,

Same here. This was such a hostile move I never bought anything “Sony” after that.

Wtf. Genetic information. So they can take your DNA after bringing your car in for service and sell it?

I was not joking at all - this is exactly what their legal stance is. I agree someone at Nissan is very likely thinking about how to make money with this.

how to optimize battery life?

So I recently bought a new honor magic 5 pro. My last phone the Huawei p20 pro was around 5 years old and started to show significantly less battery life. So I want to use this phone again for 5 years. But now I wonder should I keep the battery around 50% (65-35) and charge twice as often or should I 80-20 and charge once every...

Most important thing in my experience is getting the most slow ass charging adapter with the crappiest cable and use that for charging overnight. Many phones already have some intelligent charging strategy, but you should limit the charging speed (and thus temperature) as much as possible. My OnePlus already only charges to 80% and only finishes to 100% one hour before I wake up, helps as well. Stay away from 0% or 100% whenever possible.

TIL that In 2005, Sony BMG installed DRM software without knowledge or consent of the user, that included a rootkit which created a security vulerability (en.wikipedia.org)

In 2005, Sony BMG installed DRM software on users’ computers without clearly notifying the user or requiring confirmation. Among other things, the software included a rootkit, which created a security vulnerability. When the nature of the software was made public much later, Sony BMG initially minimized the significance of the...

Never have bought a single Sony product since. They never apologized for their outright hostile and damaging behaviour. It’s not much to them, but I bought 10000s of Euros of electronic since then. No cent for them. Fuck Sony.

I use and heavily recommend Waterfox. Less bullshit, more privacy.
