  • Not that I know of, which means I can only assume it’ll be a timing-based attack.

    With strategic use of sleep statements in the script you should stand a pretty good chance of detecting the HTTP download blocking while the script execution is paused.

    If you were already shipping the kind of script that unpacks a binary payload from the tail end of the file and executes it, it’s well within the realm of possibility to swap it for a different one.


  • Magimix are French, and may be the high-quality product you seek.

    I upgraded from a Kenwood which was good enough, but the upgrade to direct-driven and an induction motor was substantial (as is the weight of the unit).

    Their commercial products are sold under the name “Robot Coupe”, I see those show up used from time to time (usually when a restaurant goes out of business) so that could also be an option.












  • Presuming you mean 4x 2560x1440 there, you can have close enough to that pixel count today; one of the things Dell released at CES this year was a 52" 6144x2560 display (U5226KW).

    Since it’s intended to be a monitor, you get a USB hub, DisplayPort, Thunderbolt, and other things you wouldn’t get on a TV, too.

    I’ve been looking at it longingly, but I can’t quite justify that pricetag right now.


  • “Good” and “bad” are far more subjective than with most shows, in this case.

    The problem with being one of the shows that popularised - if not outright created - a lot of what became staple sitcom tropes is that people tend to look back with the modern lens, of those being extremely over-used and stale. Is just that they weren’t, when the show was current.

    A lot of viewers also tend to get stuck on the “wow, these are some truly awful people” part, which similarly was the point. To directly quote Larry David; “No hugging, no learning”.

    To dramatically over-simplify things, it is a show about three terrible people going about their lives, and failing to learn any lessons in the process; as is so famously quoted, a show about nothing.

    Whether good or bad, it was still important. Walked, so a generation of later shows could run, if you will. (Or even if you won’t, I don’t think anyone could deny that)

    Honestly, I’d consider it.

    If I was in the middle of a job and was about to run out of something, I’m looking at downing tools for a minimum hour round trip to the nearest (decent) hardware store.

    There’s a good chance someone starting closer to the store can get that down to 35-40 minutes, and I can carry on working in the meantime.

    Now “normal”, perhaps not, but unreasonable also perhaps not?


  • Having had one for almost our cats’ entire lives, I can confirm that they do not.

    It also creates something of a pavlovian response; it doesn’t matter if there’s still food in the dispenser’s bowl or he’s literally just eaten, the sound of more biscuits dropping is enough to make him absolutely hoof it in the direction of the feeder. Sometimes doesn’t even eat anything, just has to run over to it.
