Quantum computers don’t destroy the cryptography, as long as you follow best practices and don’t reuse addresses.

Better to about? Typo? Stroke? Wrong? This doesn’t make sense.

“Even harder” is relative (to Biden, for instance), which your data just confirms.

- Comment on PRUSA releases the OpenPrintTag, open source standard for filament spool identification and data tracking 3 weeks ago:
It’s a minor thing, but it helps. They put rfid tags on merchandise in some stores instead of bar codes, so I assume the cost is negligible.
On a tangent: That’s an even better use case, actually. Rfid makes it super convenient to shop at Decathlon (sports equipment store): you just throw all your clothes in a basket at checkout and it calculates your total in an instant. No scanning, no fiddling.

As a novice with a bambu lab printer, the rfid has saved me and my wife a couple of times from messing up with the wrong settings. Most of what we have is pla but the occasional petg and abs cause a surprise.

That makes the comment slightly less weird, to be honest. Still weird, don’t get me wrong, but less so.

My guess: they bought/implemented an ChatGPT subscription or AI agentic system for the party members, and they have a super weird way of announcing it… maybe to make it understandable to very non-technical people?
- Comment on Does it get windy in New York City? 4 weeks ago:
It’s almost like weather is variable…
- Comment on Does it get windy in New York City? 4 weeks ago:
As someone who visited new York in summer, I cannot confirm.
- Comment on Does it get windy in New York City? 4 weeks ago:
Yes, for politics.
Why is Chicago called the Windy City?
The nickname originally had less to do with weather and more to do with politics. In the late 1800s, rival newspapers—especially in New York—mocked Chicago politicians for being “full of hot air” as the city lobbied to host the World’s Fair. Earlier references also tied the phrase to both windy weather off Lake Michigan and “windy” public speakers. Over time, the nickname stuck and became part of Chicago’s identity. - Comment on AWS crash causes $2,000 Smart Beds to overheat and get stuck upright 5 weeks ago:
You also have wifi with tasmota or esphome. Some products come with optional cloud features turned off by default (and no automatic updates), like Shelly. You can also flash them, but the factory firmware is so unobtrusive that I don’t bother.

I guess it depends on the store. I can’t remember last time I needed assistance. I use them at Edeka, rewe, Rossmann and ikea.

For major groceries I go with the family, so one can scan while the other bags, plus the kids enjoy scanning items as well…
- Comment on 1 month ago:
Ikea does this, you just need the app, no physical scanner. Super convenient.

Humans can be paid without slowing down my grocery shopping. Just pay them to stay home and let me efficiently pay for my food and go.
