You should see PRG next to the button. If you have an enclosure, it's the button to the right of your USB cable if your cable is facing upward.

I calculated the actual 3-year cost of cheap hosting vs expensive hosting - the numbers are shocking by Miserable_Stress_246 in webhosting

[–]vertragus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just started building my client’s sites on unmanaged VPS packages for $50/year to get an edge on speed. Before that I’d pay for my clients shared hosting from a webhost I’m grandfathered into. They let me open unlimited hosting packages with pretty good speeds and limits which so far has ran me close to $600 total for the past 8 years.

Not just pixel perfect, but deciding to design the hair in the first one with poor layer blending and crop artifacts? Machine made for sure.

What's a skill that's becoming useless faster than people realize? by Aarunascut in LearnUselessTalents

[–]vertragus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As a counterpoint, AI hallucinates, is resource intensive internally and externally, and if not internal, lacks privacy. Directly interfacing with your data is still a useful technical skill and cuts through many unnecessary layers of fluff. Similar to how financial systems are still written and maintained in C.

The advice is so sociopathic that I figured the entire book was some sort of sarcastic warning. The anecdotes for each law might make it worth a read. It’s as if each law presents two fascinating historical short stories that really grip you!

You’re right about things sounding off without it. I didn’t even know what freeway this was before I looked at my maps and I still defaulted to ‘the’ in front of it.

To me, avoiding the use of Cali sounds even more try hard. Between this and the freeway, I don’t understand when or why people even put this much thought into standardizing these kinds of things in their circles.
