I would imagine it's because your distance to the satellites changes more when you move along the ground than when you move up and down the same amount.
I think there are some tricks to ensure a list in pwsh for these sort of operations. I vaguely recall ending variable assignments with a comma to avoid this.
Pretty sure you can only write off gambling losses to offset gambling winnings, which entirely makes sense. That way you only pay taxes on your net winnings for the year.
That doesn't really follow. I have the legal authority to pay a junk yard to smash my car into a tiny cube, but that doesn't mean I shouldn't be protected from auto body shops selling me fake repairs and non-functional parts.
I thought vivid dreaming was an indicator of sleep interruption, not quality sleep. IIRC dreaming happens during our deepest sleep when you would not normally be easily woken up. Remembering your dreams mean you woke during that time.
They are worried about someone copying a mistyped email from the first form field and pasting it into the "confirm email" field, thus making the confirmation field pointless. I would suspect in the real world most people are typing their email by hand and not using a password manager or auto-fill so this becomes an actual problem.
A nice implementation of this would detect that you pasted/auto-filled the original field and not prompt you to confirm unless you typed it slowly by hand.
The remote port forwarding example seems wrong. It's specifying the loopback address which would be pointing to vuln-server (where we are connecting via SSH) and not internal-web, right? How is vuln-server accessing the site hosted on the loopback of internal-web?
Edit: Okay now I see that command is supposed to be run from internal-web and not campfire. I guess you would also have to ProxyJump through vuln-server to internal-web to even run that command!
My local cable company gets around this by strategically pricing everyone towards using their new cable boxes which are essentially digital TV over DOCSIS internet. The prices for the IP TV plans (which they still call "cable") are less than $100 per month, but I was quoted over $300 per month for a traditional cable plan that could use a CableCard.
I hear this defense a lot, but isn't it kind of problematic that a platform makes you go out of your way to tell them you prefer not to see soft-core porn? I didn't even know TikTok had a "Not Interested" button until someone told me in person. It's completely hidden.
I've personally seen this come up on a lot of different social media apps that feature video content. They all initially throw a bunch of vaguely pornographic content at you to start with and continue doing so unless you keep opting out for long enough. I kinda wonder how many users never make it past the initial onslaught and just assume the entire platform is like that.
This is basically the plot of "The Net" starring Sandra Bullock. A group of hackers steals her identity and creates a new one for her in various systems to cause the police to believe she is a wanted felon.
I also live in Chicago and use CityMapper almost exclusively now. It gives way more detailed estimates for multiple transfers between bus and train and generally comes up with more/better routes for weird destinations.
Aren't something like 1 in 20 or so people color blind? I'd hardly consider that as an edge case. That's roughly the odds of being over 6ft tall in the US.
I think the idea of "everything is about half its life" is to account for survivorship bias in longevity. The only units that make it to the 95th percentile lifetimes clearly got luckier with parts and can reasonably be expected to last longer.
For what it's worth most of the "packages" on chocolatey are just instructions for downloading those same installers and executing them in their respective silent modes. No one is repackaging those apps except for maybe some of the ones marked as "portable".
