I have my own similar list that I compiled when my credit card was cancelled due to fraud, although its purpose was mostly “Compile list of things linked to that credit card that try to pay/renew automatically” that only happen once a year or so. This included things like:
- Amazon Prime membership

I don’t see quick charge or USB-C mentioned on the Jackey Titan amazon listing page.

I remember something like this, before the days of Pocket and Instapaper, where it would only save the URL. I think it was called a bookmark.

You know what would be really helpful for law enforcement? Portals. We should just force Silicon Valley to make us a portal gun. They’re clever guys, they’ll figure it out. Just ask J.K. Simmons for help.

I should also get out of the way right now that I did this using a TurboTax/H&R Block-esque piece of software, so the numbers I’m referencing were “estimates” before the last step told me the final number. This is my first year with an HSA, so I had to file some additional stuff when doing my returns. But one part of…

Somewhere in the world, Martin Sheen just threw up a little in his mouth.

I feel like I’m going to become an old man shaking his stick at children.

So that basically rules out every commercially-available bread in the US...

I’ll settle for The Touch by Stan Bush as well.

IIRC, Steve likes to brag that he only writes in assembly. So I’d assume this is as much of a GUI we should ever expect out of him.

And ya know, I bought Godzilla insurance for my house, but then the insurance company claimed the damage was caused by quakes and wouldn’t cover it.

This is somewhat tangential to backup, but since we have data recovery experts available: have you ever recovered media from a drive that was overwritten (i.e. completely overwritten with 1's and 0's, not just having the filesystem destroyed)? Was there a minimum number of passes required for the data to become…

Except if I claim her as a dependent, does that mean I’ll then become liable for her student loans? This is something I was told that can happen once you become married.

Nice idea, but trusting a site with all of your credit card info based on their word is a tall order, even with their Security page that checks all the right buzz-words (“PCI-DSS compliant”, “PBKDF2", etc). Has anyone else vetted them yet?

$2-3 spent on a filter replacement every two months hardly seems like an expense. I consider that a bargain next to the cost of drinking bottled water.

The PDF attached doesn’t tell me much about the actual ingredients list or the number of preservatives, which I would be interested in. I’m not under any delusions that cooking myself is better than grabbing prepared meal, but if the prepared meal/hot meal (I’m assuming “prepared” includes frozen since I’ve never seen…

This is why installing an Adblocker is the first order of business every time my family asks me to help them setup their new laptop. Because of crap like this. Ads are an attack vector. You’re not going to convince me that I’m “hurting content providers” when I am, quite literally, trying to protect my family.

I tried downloading it, but it forces you to scan a QR code before you can proceed past the Intro screen, so that shuts down my attempts to poke around at the moment.

I’m willing to give Google the benefit of the doubt that this has always been a root-level thing (I’m a cf.lumen user, so I’m aware that it doesn’t work as it was meant to without root), but in Apple’s case I’d be strongly inclined to argue sabotage.

It’s rather sad that both Google and Apple essentially brickwalled f.lux from being available on their systems by locking its functionality behind jailbricking/rooting until they had a chance to develop their own versions of it.
