> My only complaints are that Linux can be tedious

After using Linux daily over 10 years now, this is exactly how I feel about Windows now. I instantly get frustrated any time I have to use Windows.

Removing the Xfinity data cap would increase my bill by 60%. It is outrageous.

Ettus Research USRPs (Universal Software Radio Peripheral) are popular in academia and defense, especially the B200 series. Their software and FPGA designs are open source, and the schematics for most devices are available online.

What is quartz used for beyond oscillators?

There is too much overloading of terms these days. I saw LoRA, thought LoRa, and wondered why someone would spell GNU Radio as Gradio.

I thought you had to supplement Vitamin K along with Vitamin D? Otherwise it can increase atherosclerosis.

> I just don't think it's right to have to pay.

So you don't want to watch ads and don't want to pay for premium. What do you propose Youtube should do to make money to run the platform?

Only option right now is a Lenovo Y700. Not OLED, but it has a great looking 120 Hz screen, fast processor, and premium feel. However, it only comes in a Chinese version, so I ended up creating "unsecure" networks and accounts (Youtube, Reddit, etc) to use with it.

That's great for Geminis and Libras, but what if you're a Sagittarius?

Perhaps the unspoken argument is that client-side scanning will be made into a best practice, and websites and apps that don't implement it will be exposed to liability.

I approve.

Buddy, I never said anything about the subsequent balloons. Don’t try to deflect from the point you know I’m making: the first balloon was clearly not a weather balloon.

I'm amazed anyone still buys China's "weather balloon" lie. A weather balloon that large and expensive is a major project. It would have a project leader, project webpage, articles and conference papers, sharing of data, government permits for operation, and all kinds of other artifacts that China could trivially point out proving it was a weather balloon. Instead, China has consistently refused to even give a single name or company associated with it. It is the most secretive "weather balloon" I have ever seen.
