What API does this use that isn't available in Firefox?

Judging from the "Connect Device" button in the upper right corner, probably WebMIDI.

You're feeding bots poison without rate limiting them all to some small fraction of your pipe?

iocaine has shipped firewall support to temporarily drop traffic from IPs after you've fed them an appropriate amount poison. More people should enable it.

You should not traffic shape the egress lest you run out of workers handling legitimate traffic. You should also make sure connections are appropriately terminated on your side for the same reason.

You start by defining a loss function.

You gotta make the money first. Then when you get the money, you get the jacket. Then when you get the jacket, then you get the woman.

I think the justification for denial of communication equipment is hijackings. Protecting their wifi revenue is an ostensibly unexpected benefit.

How are you going to hijack a ship with a starlink modem?

You use it for communication and coordination with your accomplices both on and off the ship.

I'm sure security people at the cruise line are, uh, easily spooked.

I know my wine is real because I get it directly from the winery or winemaker on release.

It's very disappointing to read in this article that counterfeiters are going downmarket from the likes of DRC and Petrus and producing fakes that regular winos might buy.

you don't actually know that, but at least you can safely claim as such without risk of criminal liability

I assumed hackingonempty was talking about belonging to a wine club.

I’m not at any legal risk for believing that the half case UPS dropped off actually came from the winery its label claims.

You can buy directly from wineries. Just show up at the cellar door (or their website). Surely that is a thing in the USA too?

Absolutely. It is a common Bay Area pastime to make the roughly one-hour drive to wine country and do tastings at one or more wineries.

A “wine club” is a discount purchase program. Virtually all wineries run one, as do some larger wine merchants like Total Wine. You commit to purchasing some number of bottles periodically (quarterly or semi-annually) at a discounted rate. Membership also usually includes free on-premise tastings, so when it’s time to make your purchase it’s very common to visit the winery, taste their current offerings, and come home with your selections.

This becomes impractical if you belong to several wine clubs or don’t live near wine country, and some of the retail-run clubs choose the wines for you. Hence my quip about UPS delivery. (Legality of alcohol delivery varies by state, as a legacy of the repeal of prohibition.)

How about details/summary?

The details/summary features are covered in the accordion guide here: https://developer.chrome.com/docs/modern-web-guidance/guides...

If you scan to the bottom of the guide under the "Fallback strategies" section, you can see the recommendations for how to deal with the aspects of details/summary that aren't Baseline widely available (e.g. mutually exclusive details).

USCO doesn't make the law nor do they decide what the law says, they just register Copyrights. However, registration is not necessary for a work to be protected under Copyright law.

Congress makes the law then the Court interprets it, which hasn't happened yet.

If choosing the position / angle of a camera and its settings is enough to gain Copyright over the images it generates then prompting a model to generate an image is enough too. I don't see how anyone can come to any other conclusion.

The creativity bar for Copyright is not high. An alphabetically ordered list of customers does not meet it. Pointing a camera at someone and pushing the button does.

Congress has made the laws and USCO interprets them and makes rules based on its interpretation. Those are the implementation of those laws.

Directing is not copyrightable. The person who takes the picture owns the copyright (fixation rule) unless some other contract says otherwise. Treating the prompt writer as a director reduces their claim to ownership.

That's marketing. The iMac was a huge hit so Apple started releasing iEverything. Denny's had a hit with its "Grand Slam" breakfast now they have ten different "slams" on their menu,

> never take the car to the dealership. This isn't easy, but it's worth it.

How much is the first 3 years of maintenance worth?

So far less than $200 for the basic stuff like oil, filters. I’ve spent maybe about $600-$800 total in ~5 years because I got new tires. I bought new.
