For people saying “it’s fine”, they are probably not talking about the same thing

I assume you mean this monstrosity:

Which is indeed a crime against humanity. My parents used one and kept me from realizing that coffee is delicious until I was 18 years old or so.

The other people probably mean this simple yet effective device:

Especially the comment about 60 million Italians.

The moka pot is great and I use it to make my own latte every day.

Windows 8.1 was released in 2013, so yeah, a blast from the past!

I enjoy Organic Maps.

That’s what I thought but there’s slightly more than that.

The writer tried to trick ChatGPT 5, saying Vermont has no R in it. ChatGPT did say “wait, it does”. But then when pushed it said, “oh right there is no R in Vermont”.

I mean… the inability to know what it knows or not is a real problem for most use cases…

A TCP session is a unique combination of client IP, client port, server IP, and server port.

So you can use the same IP and port as long as the destination is a different IP or port.

This means that in principle you could use the same IP and port to connect to every IP address on the Internet using 65536 concurrent sessions. 😆

This wouldn’t help going to popular destinations, since they have a lot of people going to the same IP address and port, but for many (most?) of them you probably have some sort of CDN servers in your data centers anyway.

I switched like 25 years ago. For a long time I had a Windows partition for booting up games, until Microsoft stopped accepting my old licenses. Luckily I really didn’t care at that point.

I mean, it sounds like you’re spending 12 hours a day in a polluted city so…

Planes are the safest form of transportation if you look at safety per km travelled. If you look at other metrics, like safety per trip or per travel time then they are less safe than busses or trains.

I’m not the person you’re asking but surely they just told the compiler to treat warnings as errors after that. No warnings can creep in then!

I think that’s called a wildcat strike.
