Because interest rates are insane trapping people in homes they no longer want but can’t afford to leave?

I’m in this comment and I don’t like it.

It is a wrong answer. This is obviously a normal scale six string upright bass.

Me after reading the article: Even the workaround is halfhearted. Jeebus.

American here. My ISP blackholes certain sites at the DNS level. Easy enough to work around, but it’s there.

Netflix, what are you trying to do? I can’t cancel my subscription in protest if it’s still cancelled from the last time you did something boneheaded.

Til all are one.

Indeed. In my case, I fought through managerial malaise and turned the entire process on its ear. But even after the approach proved its worth, they refused to put a dev resource on it. It became my problem 24/7.

Remember kids, being good at something outside of your job description means it’s now your job. If the boss refuses to compensate you for it, slap it on your resume and find someone who will.

I have seen critical enterprise applications run in VBA in excel.

I wrote one of them. It replaced periodically writing down application outputs on paper and sounding the alarm if something went pear-shaped. It wasn’t my job to develop software but I didn’t want hand cramps to be my job, either. I had vague ideas about how to do what I wanted to do with Excel so I poked at it and googled until it worked. More than a decade later, I’m no longer there but that freakin spreadsheet is still running 24/7, being proudly showed off during tours of the facility.

I will cackle if MS ever pulls the plug on VBA.

This is the way.

Thank you, CaptObvious.

…you know, your username makes it difficult to sound sincere when addressing you.

You can make rules network-wide, per-app, or per-incident. The latter is useful for getting a handle on app behavior. Like if you see it contacting ‘updates.somedev.com’ weekly, you can choose to allow or disallow permanently based on how benign you think the app is. But more likely, anything trying to phone home has a dozen CDNs it’s trying to hit rather than an easily identifiable URL. Block one, it tries to hit the other. Maybe today, maybe next week. It gets overwhelming (which IMO is a feature for the dev, not a bug).

As a longtime Little Snitch user, it’s freakin exhausting.

I happen to like having the edges of my fingers or hand touch the screen inadvertently every time I pick up my phone. Bonus points if it’s unlocked and something unintended happens as a result.

Not only that, but the item description tells you that cooking them has a cold resistant effect. The old man also gives a way to combat the temps.
