Some fun with interfaces and protocols: I have a ThinkCentre m910q which has a single NVMe M.2 interface. I want to connect a PCIe M.2 device. I know that SATA M.2 only supports the SATA protocol. Will a PCIe device work on an NVMe M.2 interface? Or is the answer to that question "it depends"?
Bonus question: I have an OCuLink M.2 adapter with NVMe interface. I want to connect an OCuLink to NVMe adapter at the other end of the OCuLink cable. So far I wouldn't expect any …

I am not resting easy yet.
A bunch of people who are basically straight-up Nazis just got humiliated. They’re hurting, they’re angry, and they’re in my city.
And they’re pants-on-head dumbshits. (One of their posters bemoaned the “erogion [sic] of our rights.”) That’s not a comfort: sometimes that’s the most dangerous kind of right-winger. Their utter amateurishness means they have no sense of constraints and no sense of consequences. I don’t know what they’ll try to do next.
We remain wary and •highly• watchful. But I’m going to take the win on this round.

Phone rep: Sorry, I talk to myself while entering things.
Me: Hey, it's better than awkward silence for 10 minutes like I usually get.
Rep: I could do that if you want, I can provide Awkward Silence As A Service.
My dude, you are way, way too intelligent to be answering phones for the state government. You did a great job, but still.

Zoe Weissman came to Brown from Parkland, Florida,
where she was a student at the middle school adjacent to Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School
during the mass shooting that occurred there in 2018.
“Because I’ve already processed all the grief and the sadness before,”
says Weissman about surviving a second school shooting in her young life,
“my most predominant emotion right now is, honestly, anger …
because we are the only country where this happens, a…

I'm with Kathy Sierra on this—just always think about "how does this make the user be able to kick more ass?"
If you can't come up with an answer it probably doesn't.

The title of the blog post blog was clickbait for me. It argues #Thinkpad fandom boils down to price, build quality, and repairability.
There is one glaringly obvious omission any longtime user should spot immediately. There is no mention of the unique trackpoint-based keyboard design that you can't find anywhere else.
I've stopped using ThinkPads as my primary platform f…

Watched 12 Angry Men last night and it had me wondering if it was legal in the USA in 1957 for women to serve on a jury — looks like it was state-by-state starting with Wyoming in 1870 all the way up to Mississippi in 1968.
