It doesn't use mining, so requires negligible power to run.

I didn't report it as stolen. But they did forward the charges. But yeah, I've just finished closing my credit card completely. It's unreasonable that I've been disputing the same charge from AWS for almost a year, and now they have decided to side with Amazon.

> They forwarded from one card to another? AWS charged a closed card and the bank forwarded it?

Yup.

> By the way, if you can't authenticate with Amazon as the rightful owner of that account, it sounds unreasonable for them to comply to a stranger asking them to simply remove a credit card number of some account.

I disagree. If I can provide a full credit card number, they should be able to remove it from all accounts. Either the card is compromised, or I'm telling the truth.

For people who haven't read the article this is extremely misleading:

> The ends with him agreeing how the film sucks and maybe the prosecutor was right!

He says that, only as a joke that it's so bad it should've been illegal. While in reality a great mis-justice was done to the man, and he was railroaded into accepting a plea-deal due to the gravity of the unfair charges.

I think the real damning thing is: > When Bell customers sign up in advance for unlimited Canada-U.S. texting, they pay only $12 a month.

which I think shows charging $2k for a few weeks worth of texts is pretty unconscionable

I recently upgraded from the 2015 to the current gen.

2015 pros: * Better battery life * Way better keyboard * More robust * More useful port selection * Trackpad is a more reasonable size

2018 pros: * Way better speakers * Slightly better screen * Lighter * Faster * Trackpad is not mechanical * Finger print login is useful

I'd really love a proper "pro" macbook pro, that sacrificed a bit of the thin-and-lightness for an actual professional level of stuff (better cooling, more ports, bigger battery, no touchbar)

One thing I found to make the touchbar less annoying is go keyboard -> Touchbar shows "Expanded Control Strip". At least then you get a full strip of useful buttons that aren't constantly switching with the application.

The main issue though is with "Expanded Control Strip" the touchbar locks up (while holding a key down) about 2 or 3 times a week (which can only be fixed by a restart or: "sudo pkill TouchBarServer")

The whole thing is pretty inexcusable for such an expensive machine, but I like the macos ecosystem.

They're basing on that if someone was sending a stupidly aggressive fee (400 satoshis per byte). Anything above that is just obviously an error.

You can get an idea of what fees should be with estimatefee.com

There are plenty of opportunities for things to be stollen from checked in luggage at the arriving airport.

This actually happened to me on a flight into the US, with an expensive set of german kitchen knives in checked-in. In the US my suitcase was taken out of the normal line for extra checking (I guess because the knives showed up in an xray?).

They then later gave me my suitcase, but the entire knife set was missing. No documentation that it was taken. No one even cared. No recourse. And nothing came of it.

If I have something valuable that I couldn't take in my carryon again, I'd rather just DHL than trust the TSA to not steal it.
