Those weren’t a payment method though, so it’s completely different… /s

Could possibly use a gift card?

The other 15-20 are behind the camera, causing a grid lock traffic jam.

It’s increasing the value, you see, because before the information was free, which by the laws of supply and demand means it was worthless. It’s much more economically efficient this way, as it contributes to GDP! /s

You don’t need the precision of seconds for that sort of calculation however, so can use a signed int representing date rather than datetime for that.

It’s intentionally vague so that it applies to many stories…

One example I saw recently that comes to mind:

Someone asked in a DIY NZ forum whether to use an o-ring or thread locking tape for plumbing, and the thread was locked by an admin because it was related to a component used for bidets, and installing a bidet yourself in NZ is technically against the building code… You need a qualified plumber to do it… 😆

Doesn’t need to be 64 bit to be unsigned… And the system clock generally only goes up, so no need to represent system time as earlier than 1970…

Eh, could be worse… It’s still the best time to be alive in some respects…

Why would you use a signed int to represent system time…

I’ve found wearing a bright orange puffer jacket helps too, only really an option in winter though…

I don’t get why you’d want a computer to be dissolvable or bendable…

Sure it doesn’t seem like that would matter, but they seem to be trying to spin it as some sort of advantage?

When there is an existing network that is reliable enough and people want you use it, it should increase real estate values in the area, as long as it isn’t zoned to exclude high density development…

Goodbyen’t

It should become state owned with all profits going to the state for whatever the maximum sentence for distribution of CSAM normally is…

When i say old toyota, I mean like a 1995… Or any non-turbo 1995ish Japanese car really, except Subaru… 😅

Or just don’t get an auto loan: Just get an old toyota instead.

Or move house to somewhere close enough to work and amenities to walk/bike/bus (if possible)

Protesting, and writing to your elected representatives I guess…

After watching the summary, I feel like I don’t need to read the book now 😅
