Every few months there is a similar such story about this ancient marvel of technology and the people remotely maintaining it against all odds.

I can imagine a headline 100 years from now:

“Engineers are modifying Voyager 1 decorative panel bolt into a functional interstellar communicator”

Each Top-Level-Domain (TLD) has its own standards. Most just need your credit card transaction to be accepted. Government, municipal and academic TLD usually need you to be one of them to register a domain for you. Some country TLD require your site to have language or culture related but not always.

Also, on most instances NSFW communities are listed only if you are logged in and enable such content on your profile.

It’s a Druze village currently in an Israeli territory. Some residents have Syrian citizenship and some Israeli citizenship.

Israeli settlers continue to illegally settle lands outside of Israel’s borders

Would you like automatic update to mess with your disk partition allocations without requesting explicit permission to do so? As long as searching the error code would give me the explanation and solution I’m Ok with manual fix this time

The issue can be resolved by allocating an additional 250 MB of storage space to the recovery partition. Details on how to do that can be found here.

However, at least on Windows 10, Microsoft has acknowledged that an automatic resolution for this issue will not be released and as such, the only way to fix this is manually.

A witch!

I (programmer and team leader) get requests from the king (management and project manager) and pass them to the peasants (code monkeys), clean after their shit (QA and code review). I get peanuts in return while the king keep most of the loot.

With autopay the payment is done automatically by reading a proximity device on the filling hole, with credit/debit cards you put the card in to activate the pump, not at the end of pumping.

Go out of the car, put nozzle on other side of the car, go back inside the car waiting for it to be done, assume a station worker took the nozzle out, drive, hear a station worker screaming, drive back to return part of the pump.

Fuel cap and filling hole on the passenger side and not on the driver side

Coworker did it three times. Autopay by the nozzle, fuel cap on other side of the car, not looking at side mirrors, Bingo!

My hometown is spending more than 1m US$ for a simple one lane roundabout, assuming an up-to-code terminal and runway would not be at the same price levels.

The amount of 13 million US$ seems cheap for the work needed.

Because of this the reaction will not work outside of carefully controlled laboratory conditions, ruling out apocalyptic scenarios where the process runs away and destroys all available DNA by building versions of itself with it.

This isn’t something that’s taking over the world just yet

So there’s always that kind of uncertainty; you think you can build safeguards in, but they’re not necessarily a guarantee that it will be safe

Very reassuring, nothing to worry about

Fear, uncertainty, and doubt
