My understanding is you’d have a completely seperate set of peripherals for each seat, so that might be an extremely viable solution
When I’ve used Prime Video before it worked flawlessly in Firefox with ublock, but that was on a laptop
Yeah I’ll frequently pop a private window when watching something I don’t want mucking with my recommendations and I’ve only ever been prompted to sign in for age verification
Temporarily stopping a train has only so many useful applications for crime, sabatage or terrorism. Might be useful to rob a train if you can stop it in a remote location and steal some high value goods, but realistically most goods are either bulk commodities or shipping containers which are intentionally difficult to identify the contents of when closed. Basically you’re just forced to open some containers and hope you find goods valueble enough to resell and make the risk worth the reward
Potentially you could stop a train with some auto racks and steal the vehicles but the VINs will be immediately marked as stolen so the resale value is immediately trashed, plus you’d have to figure out the logistics of getting the vehicles off of a train stopped in the middle of nowhere (they use specialized ramps to drive the vehicles onto and off of the ends of the train when loading and unloading)
From a terrorism/nation state perspective maybe if you can fly some planes overhead and keep spamming a stop signal for a few days you might be able to cause some logistics chaos by stopping all trains in the vicinity of a busy railroad yard, but given modern flight tracking that’s extremely identifiable. Better to setup unmanned ground transmitters but that runs the risk of being caught/identified too quickly, and wireless signal triangulation is so easy there’s even hobbiest events where people try to manually triangulate a signal for fun. Maybe if an attacked setup several base stations around the country and only sent the brake application signal extremely rarely they could lower rail reliability enough to cause some issues but to cause enough trouble to actually be useful from a nation state/terrorism point of view they’d have to show their cards. Honestly a terrorist or sabatuer is probably better off just blowing up a few bridges and tunnels which would be far more effective
This vulnerability would have to trigger the airbrakes, which every single railcar has, and every car’s airbrakes are daisy chained together. Airbrakes are failsafe, in that any loss of pressure results in brake application, and a full loss of pressure means full application. So if just one car on the train has a problem with its brake lines, the whole train is stopping whether the railroad likes it or not
Yeah I lost my job a couple of months ago as a mid-level IT person and I’ve been struggling to even get an interview. I had one interview 1.5 months ago and that’s it. Heck I’m even starting to struggle to find positions to apply for to begin with, and I’m scanning as far as 100 miles away.

It is hilariously appropriate that US Service Members often identify with The Empire and have on occasion flown Empire flags on bases
This is an enterprise drive, so it’s useful for any usecase where a business needs to store a lot of lightly used data, like historical records that might be accessed infrequently for reporting and therefore shouldn’t get be transfered to cold storage.
For a real world example, the business I’m currently contracting at is legally required to retain safety documentation for every machine in every plant they work in. Since the company does contract work in other people’s plants that’s hundreds of PDFs (many of which are 50+ page scans of paper forms) per plant and hundreds of plants. It all adds up very quickly. We also have a daily log processes where our field workers will log with photographs all of their work every single workday for the customer. Some of these logs contain hundreds of photographs depending on the customer’s requirements. These logs are generated every day at every plant so again it adds up to a lot of data being created each month
I’ll be honest, in a vacuum and as a charging cable, lightning is kinda okay and the durability is pretty good. But I much prefer USB C any day
I literally just wrote a check today to pay for a vehicle inspection. And a couple recently to pay some contractors for some house repairs
But it only offers that at I think 20 V, which my phone can’t take
This is actually a big part of many of the high speed charging standards that phones use, is it will actually charge at a higher voltage to lower the amperage. I don’t know off the top of my head if USB-PD does this on phones but I know the old Qualcomm Quick Charge standard did it a lot. I think it went as high as 24V if I remember correctly
Then of course for a while lots of phones supported competing standards of quick charging and nobody allowed anyone else to use the same branding so identifying compatible chargers for your phone’s specific type of quick charge was a royal pain in the butt
I’m looking forwards to when my in-laws upgrade their phones and no longer get to use their “superior” lightning ports
I’ve got a chinesium rechargable battery/tire inflator which only charges when plugged into some chargers because it clearly doesn’t support USB-PD
Wireless charging is nice for when you’re using your phone infrequently, such as at your desk while you’re working on something else. It sits there charging, you grab it to respond to a message then set it back down. No tail to worry about, it’s not getting tangled on other wires when you dare to move your phone, etc.
It’s really a feature I never cared about until I got a wireless charger as a gift

Naaah it’s more fast typing and not correcting. The only abbreviation I see is shorting “have” to “hv” which honestly could also be a typo
Project Rene was literally the biggest news in the Sims space a couple of years ago, it’s not hard to find info about it.
But you know what is hard to find? Anything supporting the wild story you spun to dunk on people who are trying to be decent to their fellow human
Hey at least they weren’t successful in implementing the one-raised-arm solute that the initial folks pushing for the pledge in schools wanted to see. That would’ve aged reeeeally well…
