I enjoyed it, but did have mixed thoughts about it. It's a good "whodunit", I liked the main character, and the setting was unique, but didn't really understand the appeal of her love interest or his character in general.

One funny thing I noticed is they did a really good job of being realistic about how hacking could actually be accomplished, but on the flip side sounded like a CSI episode any time they talked about it. Like "you hack?", "my hacks are really good", "she's a top tier hacker".... etc....

Look up how she made his son buy back his own letters between him and his father.

Should a port scan by a bad actor be considered multiple hacking attempts or a single hacking attempt?

Another way to think about it: if a burglar tries various windows and doors to find an unsecured opening, is that considered multiple burglary attempts or a single burglary attempt?

Thanks for clarifying.

Can't wait to see the Karl Jobst update video for this.

Hahaha, love that you came with receipts. People are extremely shortsighted sometimes and think surviving a few bad years means they'll be around for a while. Companies can take a while to fail and can limp along for years before finally being sold off.

I had the same thought. I always wonder if these types of articles are written with the purpose of sowing negative feelings towards EV in order to maintain the fossil fuel status quo.

EVs are here to stay. Tesla's valuation drop has nothing to do with consumer appetite for EV and everything to do with the fact that they're overpriced, poor build quality, questionable design and engineering decisions, and the abyssal oversold failure of full autonomous driving.

Big Ren and Stimpy vibes. Loved it!

Why does anyone still buy HP?

I said it in other posts and I'll say it again here:

I will game on a Windows based PC, but Linux is a must have on hand held at this time - Windows is too resource intensive, developers are not going to be able to get the same OS optimization out of Windows that they can with Linux.

I haven't found one yet, but I do recommend stamped metal with etched labels for 1 cup and lower measuring cups and spoons. I've replaced a plastic set with metal because the labels had all disappeared from the plastic over the years.
