If we don’t want our homes to eat Wi-Fi signals, companies will need to start eating the cost of choosing better Wi-Fi-penetrating materials — or, at the very least, they will need to stop putting fiber connection points literally inside walls.

Or you could just USE THE DAMN ETHERNET DROPS THEY SO KINDLY BUILT FOR YOU.

Of course you're going to get shit signal if you put one AP in a metal box and expect it to cover the whole house. that's why they built that box and ran Ethernet throughout the house.

Career speedrunning? Kid's probably going to be burned out by 30.

The ⅓-pounder? A&W already tried that, and it flopped, because people don't understand fractions.

Nowhere to keep/wash your clothes. Nowhere to shower. Nowhere to get mail. I'd bet a lot of computer systems aren't even built to handle people without an address.

I don't think people should have to put extra filters to get what they signed up for when they subscribed to "technology"

Fear or shame, probably.

Come the fuck on. A UN resolution demanding a ceasefire is just symbolic anyway.

Can we expand this to multi-family houses? I don't think we need it for apartment buildings too, but triple-deckers, for example, are not that different.

This is a civil case, which has a lower standard of proof.

Ideally we'd address the root causes of lack of mental health and socioeconomic inequality.

Can any of those guys get coked up and sweat through their shirt while jumping around on stage and screaming about developers, though? I think not.

That assumes they won't jam after the fifth round. Nobody uses drum mags because they're so unreliable.

I can't find an article, but I heard a report of male hostages being sexually assaulted this morning on my local NPR member station.

Anyway, free Palestine.

I just checked the front page of this community (as sorted by active) and none of those posts were about protocols, so...

You can get the max on each count. Usually that doesn't happen, unless they didn't get more counts or higher charges to stick.

That's what credit card chargebacks are for.

Define "performance is sub-optimal".

It's any notification not generated locally. Your phone maintains a persistent, continuous connection to the notification service, which is provided by Google or Apple. When there's a notification, they push it down the pipe to your device.

This is opposed to regular "pull", where the device opens a new connection every so often to poll the server and ask "hey you got any new messages for me?"

There's really no easy way to tell whether a notification is pushed or pulled. Even if you turn off notifications entirely, the connection is probably still present so that your app still receives data about new email, your turn to play, etc.

(And on the other hand, promotional notifications, like ones that remind you to play a game, or order something on Doordash, are probably on a recurring local timer, not pushed down ad-hoc each time.)

It does.
