Oh fuck yeah! So much of my research into new tools is just checking to see if they have a demo, documentation, and price.

When I'm looking for a new tool, I don't have the time to schedule a "quick" 20 minute call to do introductions and schedule a follow-up hour long meeting followed by a quote sent over in an email days later only to find out the price is so far outside the range there is no way it's ever going to happen!

I'm not some useless middle manager looking for any excuse to look busy; I don't have that kind of time to waste!

Of light. But also black people too, but that's not what I meant!

Split the difference, Lemmy Ask Lemmy.

At one job we had a digital form for new user requests. This existed for auditing purposes, but it also helped to collect all the necessary information for the change. I was always impressed at how people managed to fill it out wrong every single time.

For example, I would get a request to update someone's name and they would fail to include the former name or the new name or even enter their OWN name for one of the fields.

What I learned is no system is idiot proof, no form will ever be filled out perfectly, and everything will need manual intervention at some point.

I did a really quick search and a mechanical hard drive costs around 1$ for 50gb of storage while a blank Blu-ray was closer to 1$ for 25gb of storage. That would suggest a drive is more effective at storing data from a cost perspective, so there just needs to be a service that sells movies in a digital format.

Having a dog helps too as you have a plausible excuse to leave and a conversation topic.

Them being adversarial doesn't really matter. The allies of today are the enemies of tomorrow and the converse, so the who shouldn't matter. The problem is with anyone collecting data on your citizens because it can be sold, traded, stolen, or abused.

If it was about protecting people, a wide-spread countermeasure would be used instead of a pinpointed assault targeting a single app.

A quick search suggests that blood is 80% water. Turning that into wine at a weak concentration of 5.5% results in around at 14.5% BAC which is over 10 times greater than the highest ever recorded, so it would be certainly lethal.

Nah, there is an upper limit on how quick the infusion would permeate the same as you can see it permeate in the cup.

If you're a fan of animation and don't mind gore, Castlevania is available on Blu-ray. I just watched all 4 seasons. Some of those scenes are just incredible.
