life lessons

So Nintendo and the Pokemon Company sued Pocketpair over #Palworld supposedly infringing #Pokemon patents?

That makes no sense to me. Why patents?

Internet radio feels like a lost relic that everyone ignores in favor of streaming services like Spotify. Personally, I've always preferred buying my music DRM-free (physical first, Bandcamp second) but I had forgotten how much I liked tuning into internet radio channels when I was unsure of what I wanted to listen to.

Right now, I'm tuned into a vaporwave channel and relaxing with the vibes.

Well, that sounds absolutely horrific.

Who knew that it's possible to boot straight into UEFI setup by just running "systemctl reboot --firmware-setup"? 🤯

It makes all those times I was mashing F12 as soon as the computer started booting utterly pointless — especially after getting Linux installed.

Well, at least I know about it now.

Scoop: New details are emerging about a breach at National Public Data (NPD), a consumer data broker that recently spilled hundreds of millions of Americans’ Social Security Numbers, addresses, and phone numbers online. KrebsOnSecurity has learned that another NPD data broker which shares access to the same consumer records inadvertently published the passwords to its back-end database in a file that was freely available for download from its homepage until today.
