...As opposed to Twitter where I was banned for expressing an opinion that wasn't in line with the site owner's personal opinions. At least with Bluesky, you can opt out of their moderation.

It isn't difficult to fact check this; the markup is ~$80 from what I can buy independently, not factoring in general extra cost for mini-pc parts.

And soon I won't be able to run old 32bit binaries with the latest Linux Kernel. We all move on.

Sure, but being able to share the 'data dump' at the end of a Youtube Video is so much more fun/likely to be used.

Sure, and a simple random number generator will use significantly fewer resources for the same desired result.

A Human Interviewer can be held responsible for their actions, a machine, so far, cannot. Outside of the potential for cutting costs, abdication of responsibility is the number one reason we're looking to adopt these systems.

The App uses the Mac Text element rather than a custom one, so it'll have the same shortcuts as all of them; `⇧ Shift ⌥ Option ⌘ Command V` to paste and match the formatting of the current field (in the case of a blank field, remove formatting).

Hell yeah it is. They've found some success with their cases, and I'm excited to switch to their new magnetic keyboard for horizontal portable work, but I do worry this is a moonshot that will sink them.

There's an RSS feed that is exposed in the standard manner (link tag in head), precisely what you're looking for. They do not offer a paid subscription, just the option to 'buy' individual issues, which is also linked under every issue.

I can appreciate where you're coming from in general, but this article isn't that. All Headlines suck, by their nature they have to cater to the lowest common denominator in who they assume their audience is, so we're using the headline to place an unfamiliar country in a continent that is familiar enough, at least in name.

If you were dependent upon a single distribution (region) of that Service, yes it would be a massive single point of failure in this case. If you weren't dependent upon a particular region, you'd be fine.

Have people forgotten what a bookmark is? https://www.youtube.com/feed/subscriptions

And once on a video, suggestions cannot be seen in Cinema Mode, which can be made the default. Still have the ones at the end of the video I suppose, though they show up inconsistently for me, so might be a channel creator setting.

You can; the author just hasn't implemented it. Import directly from your Amazon account is supported in Klib https://klib.me

Other users want a secure design without the ability to shoot oneself in the foot, such is the reason for a market where you have the alternative choice in Android.

Also true in central Wisconsin where there isn't a law such as this, for what it is worth.

Which in many cases would break SOC2 compliance (co-mingling of development and customer resources), and even goes against the basic advice offered in the K8s manual. Beyond that, this limits your ability to test Control Plane upgrades against your stack, though that has generally been very stable in my experience.

To be clear I'm not defending the 47 Cluster setup of the OP, just the practice of separating Development/Production.

You do not, providing you have given permission previously. Most Video Conferencing solutions have you test your hardware prior to joining a call, so shouldn't be an invasive issue.
