Hibernation does not take that long with a modern ssd. Convenience and security often don’t go hand in hand. Locking the laptop usually is sufficient too for switching trains etc.
Configure automatic login and encrypt your drive. Shows only “enter passphrase” and is actually secure instead of just a cosmetic password prompt.
There is a case of someone clowning against the glass and falling down with the glass and dying from it. So… Fear validated?

Sorry to tell you. Controling parents exist independent of the times. Them calling the police on you is a classic abusive move which is shitty behavior in it self, but the strain on society is fucked up as well. Classic narcist behavior. We love our parents either way deep down, but no need to make excuses for them. Go be happy, enjoy your life, do better with your kids. Help them become independent while being safe. Trust me they will still love you. Stop the cycle. <3

If you do any industrial processing step which creates something harmful for the environment, your company is responsible for undoing that step after nobody wants the result any more.
This creates an incentive to recycle and build stuff to be able to deconstruct it’s components. Less stuff in the landfills and more raw materials for recycling.
Let the consumer bear the cost by paying the real price of a product and not mother nature.

Well… This sounds like optimizing tests for coverage. Which is not a novel idea, but certainly not the worst.
I was testing some code late at night in the test system. Rolled out the changes, log on to the admin interface and write a short news article about how one of the more hated profs at the university had died suddenly and unexpectedly.
Result looks good, roll out changes to prod, about to call it quits for the night. Think to myself: common reason people get fired, maybe delete the story from test system. Check test system, no story there… Uhoh.
Story has been live for about three hours. Hope no spiders have caught it yet, hurry to delete it and learn how to purge all evidence from database.
Turns out the shithead admin had copy and pasted the server config for the test system from live and forgotten to change the admin rewrite rules to test system. Phew…

Science teaches us to believe things as true if the stated theory matches with the given evidence or impossibility of evidence for the inverted thesis. There is no evidence either way but we can accept what the answer is most likely and wait for someone with actual evidence for the contrary who will most likely never appear.
Miele is always a safe bet. We bought a Bosch modular vacuum with a wall mounted charging station. It’s battery powered and you can swap the battery with your power drill. A little pricey but worth the quality. Especially the rug brush that used to be exclusive to Vorwerk vacuums.
The man had Vitiligo, his skin literally bleached itself.
There are sites that inform you once the website changes via email. Alternatively RSS feeds are still a thing. Yahoo pipes allows you to build your own RSS feeds from websites that don’t have one.
I asked myself the same thing. Lots of layers to that. A foothold in the middle east is among them. A lot more surprising are the radical Christians that somehow like the radical Jews. Also selling guns, and a few more cultural things too.

Time to break them up.
