It’s a happy accident. They were working on a diabetes treatment, which they did develop. The side effects included weight loss, so it started to get prescribed off-label for that. Then they did the required testing to get it approval for weight-loss.

It works because it is a fake hormone that mimics GLP-1, a hormone that is involved with appetite regulation. When it binds to the GLP-1 receptors it causes more insulin to be released in response to sugars which lowers blood sugars. The weight loss doesn’t come from that, though, it comes from the appetite suppression.

A lot of people seem to think you can eat as much as you want while you’re taking it. That’s technically true, but really because you won’t want to eat much.

Just giving them what they wanted.

You can try to see if lspci sees the USB controller. Next I would try running diagnostics from UEFI, see if you get any errors. Try a bootable USB to verify if it’s a hardware or software issue.

Any hardware diagnostic failure or failure to boot from it will tell you you need a new system board.

Denuvo is DRM not anti-cheat.

Requiring a support contract to receive continuing updates of software that was very publicly approaching end of support, with published EoL dates for years now does not break any laws.

By that logic, no support contracts are legal in the EU at all, and no product would ever be sunset.

My pleasure 😁

Hi, you’re wrong. Goodwill Industries is a 501©(3) non-profit organization.

Hold up,

2024-1994=30 years

Since a century is 100 years, 1/4 would be 100/4=25 years

How did you get 32 years equals a quarter century?

They automatically unlock it once it’s paid off. They have a disclaimer that it needs to stay on the network for 60 days after it’s paid off, but I think that’s a CYA because mine was unlocked within a day of the last payment.

I just checked and I have 6 unlocked phones on my account and never requested any of them.

iPhone has had this since iOS 17, and my Samsung has had this feature for a while too. Not sure about other androids, but you probably just need to enable it.

This looks like a working line GSD. It’s hard to tell from the video, but I can’t see much, if any, slope on its back.

If you want a GSD, make sure you use a reputable breeder and avoid show line dogs. Genetic screening and meeting the parents will give you some peace of mind about the health of your pup.

1901, designed to lower humidity in a print shop to keep the moisture from affecting the paper. Then to textile mills and other manufacturing facilities.

I think it was installed in a residence in 1915 for the first time, then in 1931 the window unit was invented. They became available for cars in 1932, but the first factory units didn’t come out until 1939 from Packard.

If you don’t count only powered AC, passive air conditioning methods have existed as long as we’ve been building structures. There has been a big push towards these passive cooling methods again.

Apple will randomize your MAC when connecting to networks to maintain privacy. It’s a per-network setting that can be toggled off for your own private network if you want to.

New one is a lot different. Instead of individual buildings, you’re building districts. I never really got into the first too much, but I played for 8 hours yesterday. If you’re into city building with politics, it’s pretty great.

There is no application. It’s a literal typewriter. It takes a key press and stamps it on the paper.

Pressed optical disks, yes. Dye-based writable and re-writable do not last very long at all.

Depending on the disc, they can last anywhere from 5 to over 100 years. The over 100 year ones are (were?) marketed as archival, and only CD-R. Do not trust any random writable disc to survive very long.

I tested some backup DVDs from 2012 a couple of months ago and they were completely unreadable.

Not sure why you’d lie about something like this? Not exactly obscure knowledge that the Rangers first model year was 1983. Before that it was a trim package, if that’s what you mean that’s still a full size F-series.

Winget is built-in, doesn’t require an elevated command prompt, and will actually update stuff installed from outside of winget if you want.

I use chocolatey for some kubernetes tools (fluxCD and helm) because they get updated a little bit faster (like a day or less) but it’s pretty much been made obsolete for my use.

That being said, if my job didn’t require me to use windows, I’d probably just use NixOS full time.
