Really incredible photo. Is this a single shot, or composite?

This is a great description! I agree, a meteor large enough to destroy a small country is massive!

I don’t think this accomplishes what he wants. The router DHCP will assign the second DNS address as you mention, but the devices will select one at random, not as a backup/failover. So what happens is that devices sometimes go through the Pi-hole and sometimes go through the secondary DNS address and receive ads. The only real way I’m aware of is to have a second pi-hole for redundancy. Personally, I decided to use a cloud based service (NextDNS) for this exact reason. I didn’t want my families internet to rely on devices that I host.

I have a similar setup to the above. Personally I use Docker Compose and backup up my compose scripts to the NAS.

If that’s the actual name of the fruit, why wouldn’t it be marketed under that name?

PSA: you can request deletion of your 23andMe account. It won’t do anything for this past hack, but it’ll at least prevent your data from being included in future hacks (assuming they actually completely delete your data like they’re supposed to).

Does it need it? AFAIK, you can’t copyright a design.

For anyone else wondering: In Las Vegas around 10 p.m., the average temperature can range from the mid-40s to the low 50s Fahrenheit (around 7 to 12 degrees Celsius).

It honestly really depends what your needs are. This is a bit like asking what the best car is. A Ferrari is nice and fast, but wouldn’t be great for a dumpster hauling service. What platform(s) or tech stack are you planning on running?

“This May, the FDA gave the company approval for human trials.”

Wow! That’s scary

Out of curiosity, has there ever been a teardown of one of these to see what kind of snake oil actually powers them?

Honest question… I get that Chrome has a bunch questionable privacy practices that sends data back to Google, but do the chromium based browsers do that as well? My understanding is that Chromium is just the rendering engine. How is it bad?

Also, if Google implements their bullshit DRM features, I wonder if the derivative browsers will be able to disable it. I believe I saw that Brave said they won’t use it.

I understand that apps on my iPhone can harvest my private usage data for things like advertising, selling my data, etc... Is that data only collected while actively using the app, or can it also be collected while the app remains closed and not in use?
