  • Sounds like a dirty word

  • Simple X - Piracy Group
  • Yes and no

    Normally used for the CIA but also used for agencies like the ATF, FBI, etc. Their inability to blend in to the native population's habits, patterns and speech makes them stick out like a sore thumb to the population, hence they "glow in the dark."

    TL;DR:

    > Incorporating Tails into the Tor Project's structure allows for easier collaboration, better sustainability, reduced overhead, and expanded training and outreach programs to counter a larger number of digital threats.

  • Google TV Streamer doesn't come with an HDMI cable, so you'll get a $10 discount instead
  • Same reason phones often do not come with accessories like a charger, cable, earbuds, etc. any more.

  • They are focusing on the dry part of the term. Using a liquid during the process goes against the dry part.

  • No, the bridge is too well-guarded.

    EDIT: Is that last line there also another "Studio 60 vs. 30 Rock" joke?

  • Apparently most NBC affiliates refused to air it because aside from simply promoting the upcoming fall schedule, it heavily endorsed the then-new streaming service Peacock. They saw that as a potential means of leading viewers away from them.

    I presume it is freely available there because of all the pos-mens and product integortion. It's sort of just one big advertisement disguised as a 30 Rock episode.

    I think I finally wrapped my mind around how Dee's Double-Drop works! Am I missing anything?

    ...and then Dennis comes along and takes the $4 from Dee's purse and puts it in the cash register anyway.

    My previous explanation that is probably incorrect: https://litter.catbox.moe/iblc2r.jpg

    Ventoy source code contains some unknown BLOBs, still no word on the issue from the dev after months

    github.com [issue]: Remove BLOBs from the source tree · Issue #2795 · ventoy/Ventoy

    What happened? Due to the recent XZ-Utils drama I checked the code and I'm appalled. There are more BLOBS than source code. https://github.com/ventoy/Ventoy/tree/3f65f0ef03e4aebcd14f233ca808a4f8946...

    [issue]: Remove BLOBs from the source tree · Issue #2795 · ventoy/Ventoy

    I had no idea this issue had been identified. While I find this tool very useful, the project is seeming rather questionable to me now.

    On an opposite note, I initially did not know that Bucky Bright was just a fictional character.

    I thought Bucky Bright was a real person making a cameo, and that he was just a real good sport about making absurd jokes about his time as an actor. It was not until seeing the announcement of Conway's death in 2019 that I realized Bucky Bright was made up for 30 Rock.

    Why are the webcam/microphone switches red when the component is disabled and black when enabled (instead of the other way around)?

    It makes more sense to me to have the switches appear as red when the device has the ability to record you. When color is used as an indicator for something, the general convention is that red is negative. Meaning that there is a greater possibility of something going wrong when a red indicator is being displayed. You could argue that "webcam is not working for some reason" is a negative, and that seeing the bright red indicator can bring your attention to the switch as a hint to how to fix the issue. I would argue against that by stating that having a webcam record you when you do not want it to is a much bigger potential negative than the webcam not recording when you do want it to.

    Also:

    • When a traditional video camera displays a red indicator light, that means the camera is recording.
    • On the underside of the Framework 16, the expansion module latches are red when disengaged
