good call then, however if it's so close to the plug i'd try to disassemble it and reattach plug to now slightly shorter cable (after taking photos noticing how cables are connected) (unless there are crimped, glued, mold-injected or otherwise irreversibly attached parts)

you can do that even with some crimped connectors, as long as you have spare or can make ersatz ferrula

either way, it's january problem

i can only watch in disbelief

maybe it's a good thing that it's so fucking hard/expensive to selfhost bsky

lies, 5.42kb

why didn't you stagger the joints, if you make it so that no joint is in the same point in cable then it's slimmer, more elastic and slightly less prone to failure

considering that you have there a bunch of coax cables in single wrap, you might have some problems with rf signal leakage between them if there are gaps in shield of these coax cables that line up

it also looks like there's shield over entire cable, it would be a good thing to keep it continuous

if it's some sensitive rf equipment, especially working at microwave frequencies, then keeping wire diameter and insulator thickness in these coax cables is important, which in practice means you should put there two coaxial plugs and a barrel connector between them. at which point it probably makes more sense to replace cable entirely

can you get methadone substitution therapy under these laws?

the death penalty for anything approach? yeah nah that would be war on drugs dialed to 11 and it sucked

you do not, under any circumstances, "gotta hand it to them"

if bsky is supposed to be federated, then it does nothing, but as it is today with 99%+ of users on main instance, it only works as a recruitment tool for bsky

Sounds like all of your middle school classmates got your number and want you to get into their pyramid scheme of choice

a16z funds 1000+ strong phone farm and uses it for mass manufacturing tiktok ai influencers, security turns out to be not good enough https://www.404media.co/hack-reveals-the-a16z-backed-phone-farm-flooding-tiktok-with-ai-influencers/

the usecase is spam:

The hacker also shared a list with me of more than 400 TikTok accounts Doublespeed operates. Around 200 of those were actively promoting products on TikTok, mostly without disclosing the posts were ads, according to 404 Media’s review of them. It’s not clear if the other 200 accounts ever promoted products or were being “warmed up,” as Doublespeed describes the process of making the accounts appear authentic before it starts promoting in order to avoid a ban. 

I’ve seen TikTok accounts operated by Doublespeed promote language learning apps, dating apps, a Bible app, supplements, and a massager.

When, not if, element crashes (android or webapp or desktop, all do that), you get logged out and in order to access encrypted groups (dms are encrypted groups with 2 members) you need recovery key, or room keys (you can export them). If you have exchanged keys in person, then the first one recovers it too, the second doesn't

Matrix lacks some of discord features, but the point is encryption it provides
