The panels all come from two producers (really just one for the very good ones). So, pick whoever you can get the best deal on for your needed featureset and never connect it to the internet.

Denny’s said in a statement. “In 2024, Denny’s announced its strategy to close approximately 150 underperforming restaurants by the end of 2025, which the brand has been doing over the course of the past year.

That’s more what a consultant is. A “Fractional C[insert function here]O is permanent or at least long-term. It just means the firm doesn’t have the resources and need for a full-time executive in that role. I’ve worked with fractional CTO, CIO, CFO, and CMO executives at different companies and they’ve all been required to have the company, industry, market, etc. knowledge that a non-fractional employee would. Honestly, this concept has been wonderful for small to midsize companies.

They’d have to exclude sanctioned VPN traffic, or the entire financial system doesn’t work at all.

Almost all retailers inventory on consignment. So, no.

If you really think most people are up to using a password manager, you live in a bubble.

Well that’s some FUD nonsense to excuse laziness.

Oh, that’s fine; I’ve been wrong before, too.

So you agree?

If you’re going to use a password vault, use one you host yourself and not someone else’s service.

Congratulations on mentioning a bunch of features that were baseline two decades ago.

Every Garmin has a full suite of health and exercise tracking. Smart functionality like tap to pay, messaging, app API integrations for using your watch and not your phone, integration with Garmin’s entire line of outdoor smart equipment and sport-specific tools.

They’re not comprable. If you just want a Pebble 2.0 and don’t take care of your body, go with that. If you actually live a life, Garmin’s a clearly superior choice.

2 weeks between charge

Most Garmin watches do this and they offer a modern featureset.

Several dictionary words in series cannot be “easily brute forced.”

You’re out of you’re depth and saying stupid things.

Not at all. It will lead to easier to type passwords, likely. But that doesn’t mean shorter. This could easily be filled with passwords that are four words long with special characters interspersed.

Term limits for legislative bodies is, and always has been, a dumb idea.

You need a constitutional amendment to impose age limits on offices.

This is the electorate’s fault; the electorate needs to fix it.

Why is holding on to this job important if everything about it sucks?

Seems like this comment could be asked of basically any post on Lemmy that even tangentially references politics, economics, or tech.

people from the North don’t understand how big mosquitoes can get in the swamp

I take it you’ve never seen a backwoods mosquito from the Boundary Waters or, god help me, Alaska.

It’s just a technological step forward. Thread was designed from the ground up as an IPv6 protocol. Honestly, this kind of move is coming later than would have been ideal, given the massive growth in IoT devices.

decent NUCs are much pricier than old discarded hardware

This can be true for some, but for a lot of labbers the increased energy cost of enterprise hardware will exceed the cost difference of the NUC over the expected life of the equipment. That doesn’t mean it’s an obvious choice to go the other way; it’s just something you should consider.
