Does the king's "official birthday" count? If so, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trooping_the_Colour

Beau had a good story about that kind of training!

Was just watching a kubernetes tutorial recorded a year ago, and the entire website / package repository it uses doesn't exist anymore because modern devs can't go six months without changing everything.

It didn't help when any page which could be rewritten with mathematical notation was rewritten as mathematical notation.

Nah, old(er) people would boot directly to a BASIC editor.

If they build something to attack missiles immediately after launch, how do the Americans even know who is the target?

Like, you're choosing whether or not to shoot down a missile that launches in the general direction of Canada and America, but at launch you can't see exactly which?

Piracy, eh? I wonder where that typewriter font came from.

I have a keyboard like this, yes it came with the cable (same A male plug each end) and yes it's used as a USB device.

Exactly - not only can all modern cars remotely be accessed, anyone with access to those [insecure] maintenance pages could hypothetically:

  • Track you on the GPS
  • List your regular journeys
  • Use the cameras to see who is in the car right now
  • Wait for you to pass a certain remote area on one of your regular journeys
  • Disable the car
  • Unlock the doors
  • Turn on the interior light

At that point, I wonder what access the car has to affect whether the driver's phone can make a call...

Thanks to poor engineering and Elon Musk, Tesla’s road rage-inducing street tank can’t even win over its core demographic: doomsday preppers

 

Any guesses for what chaos awaits us on this train?

Edit to add: This is not the ticket, it was printed alongside the actual ticket, after asking for seating preferences.

 

Apologies if not the normal format for this sub, but quite interesting to see what happens when someone with homemade license plates tries to visit a secure area.

 

Ficsit does not waste.
