Last time I looked into this the answer was no - it’s a permanent chemical change you can’t heal or stop or cover.

The best thing I’ve found was to keep using alcohol wipes to scrape away the gooey top surface every once in a while. ☹️

Best I’ve found is yt-dlp against YouTube Music. Their catalog is pretty complete but there’s definitely more legwork involved than point and click.

Yes, but…

A package can only be insured for the amount it’s declared as. So if a shipper sends you a PS5 and says it’s worth $5, and that package is lost or destroyed, the insurance will only cough up $5. And it’s the receiver that’s fucked, not the merchant.

I’ve gotten tons of packages over the over that were “USB accessory” with a value of $1.05. It was all kinds of shit worth under 5 bucks. Shipper being lazy because it didn’t matter. But when you go over that, they have always been more accurate about what they put on the label in my experience.

I download cars.

There’s a big difference between getting news from TikTok and getting all one’s news from TikTok.

Even then, every major media organization is also on TikTok. There’s likewise a big difference between getting news on TikTok from credentialed journalists and getting news from random influencers.

The stats as reported don’t go into enough detail to help form an informed opinion on whether there’s a problem here.

Sure explains why Plex was so cagey and uninformative when they emailed everyone to update their servers a couple months back. Not so much as a CVE report or change set.

A vulnerability? No…. 4 of them. And they stack.

I love how the article seems to equate “failure of the state” with police running out of ammo and not ending the violence quickly enough. Not the decades of policies that led to thousands of people feeling like they need to destroy infrastructure.

Oh. My. God.

The corporations knew this was coming! That’s why they always say “we’re a family”!

What do you mean it’s free from local GST? It’s absolutely not.

When you import a package they will assess:

• GST/PST/HST based on the province you import it to
• duties and tariffs if they apply to that item
• a service charge for assessing and collecting the fees
• if it’s shipped via an international courier like FedEx, a customs brokerage fee for “allowing” them to make the payments to the government on your behalf

You will not save money importing this from Japan. You will pay more than you would here. The only reason to import it is because it’s cool and not available here. You will also have no warranty coverage if something is wrong with it.

If we’re being very lazy with few tools, a pair of pliers will do it. Pinch the wire close to one of the joints and bent it back and forth a bunch of times. The wire cable will eventually snap. Do it for a few of them and it’ll open a big enough hole.

Or, uh, return it to the store where you found it or alert the local police so the local corporate retail site gets their, uh, property back. Yeah.

There’s also a joke about sexy fishnet stockings but I’m having trouble completing the joke.

Practically every sport can be boiled down to “2 groups of people disagreeing where a ball should go”.

Premier.

Elon’s shock and fury about the database key sounds like he got a report from an out-of-breath 20 year old DOGE kid who thinks they’re hot shit and discovered some massive flaw.

Elon also seems like the kind of person that believes a database schema is all that’s needed to govern a population.

The logic was “these companies ate the cost” and when confronted with the fact that prices went up and the costs had been passed on to consumers, the clarification they provided was “nuh uh”.

Kid Rock's fans are up in arms after

I’m sorry his what now?

If he’s so liberal, how come his burrito is on the right, hmm?

This policy is designed to maintain consistency across all classrooms while ensuring that no one group is targeted or offended by the display of certain items.

Mmmm.

All the evidence for this comes from a linked article that says only

To add to the drama, a wild rumour, and I stress rumour, is doing the rounds in San Francisco: some Anthropic engineers have begun to worship Claude.

Can we really get nothing more substantive than that?

If it has crypto anywhere on it, or so much smells slightly of crypto, you make sure you’re paid in real money up front.

Yeah and my company has the best dev team because we resolve all the critical incidents we cause by shipping buggy code.

Some of these other loser companies don’t even have incidents!
