From 10 December, social media companies will have to take "reasonable steps" to ensure that under-16s in Australia cannot set up accounts on their platforms and that existing accounts are deactivated or removed.

Here in Minneapolis, in some ways it’s already happening: people are putting so many hours into community work, and are so exhausted and distracted when they’re at their jobs, now normal life is…well, not shut down, but severely compromised.

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 …
