It doesn’t help that plenty of places still follow old IT guidelines that are bad, so they all get lumped together. E.g. change password every 45 days, can’t BT the last 10, must have 4 characters different, and we don’t have a password manager.

I should probably learn how BI works, but I’m mostly torturing excel to do things it was never intended to do.

Also I do a lot of lookups and xlookup will slow my sheet down.

There’s no way they’re using xlookup at year 7. You can pry my index match from my cold dead hands.

I’ve used Kobo and Ebooks.com, and import into my Calibre library. I know some authors have a way to purchase directly on their site.

It absolutely does. https://plugins.calibre-ebook.com/ there is a KFX input plugin. Also, if using an older version of kindle for PC you can batch download your whole library and import to Calibre.

Sports is a big one that comes to mind. Or competition shows people want to live vote for.

Isn’t Syncthing for Android getting sundowned?

Beyond my normal use case, I still think there are some Internet things that are “big screen” tasks. Too many websites still have poorly optimized mobile interferfaces.

Not always

Ships absolutely practice turning everything off.

Ah, I think I misunderstood the conversation, then. I apologize for that. I was considering quantum sensors and other quantum computer adjacent technologies, I suppose. Not just the classic idea of a quantum computer/showing quantum supremacy.

I appreciate the conversation, but it does seem like you’re dismissing everything to fit with your narrative. Quantum computing is absolutely a new and emerging field, I was just trying to showcase that it’s farther than 21 divided by 7. From wikipedia, https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetocardiography, MCGs are pretty much by definition a quantum sensor. The technical aspects of the paper linked goes in to how their device is different and why it does not require cryogenic cooling.

Looks like they do! I’d only heard about them in passing, but here’s an article: https://www.mdpi.com/1424-8220/24/16/5402

Not the one I was thinking about. Sandbox AQ is the one that came to mind.

Sandbox AQ is one I’ve heard about. Pretty sure they are at least at the prototype stage.

That’s not entirely true. There are companies right now with prototypes solving real world problems.

I think you misinterpreted, because you two are saying the same thing. It is ethical to share. Therefore, it has not been made illegal for being unethical (because it is ethical), it has been made illegal to protect profits.

The outage only affected the Windows version of Falcon. OSX and Linux were not affected.

I’ve had no issues with Fi and RCS. Then again, maybe Fi on pixel is different.

I definitely meant gparted in my reply. That’ll teach me to proofread better.
