Yup. Toyota Yaris '15 stock. Lowest trim they offer.

My car is a 2015 and didn't come with a cruise control lol :(.

To be fair, I can drive at and maintain a consistent speed without it, though I didn't have to often thanks to stop and go traffic πŸŽ‰.

Fortunately my boss at the time was a lawyer, so he gave me alot of great advice throughout the entire ordeal.

Unfortunately he didn't do landlord/tenant disputes, his area is class action and credit related.

So we waited until the landlord sent it off to the agencies, and he took the case on contingency.

Unfortunately that fine was a fine and not an award / damages. I would have liked that cash influx lol.

When our "final balance" from the landlord (late fee + "repairs") went to collections I asked for it, got all the documents, and forwarded it to my attorney along with everything else.

Long story short they settled out of court, then didn't fulfill the settlement contract (namely the bit about removing the erroneous reports against my credit), then wound up getting fined 50 grand by my local government.

Programming and self hosting the results when I was ~14 is what led me to a tech background. No university, but I've been working professionally in both IT and software for over a decade and self hosting even longer.

Coworker in sales got mad at one of the shipping guys thinking his packing of the pallet was insufficient. They get into a verbal spat until the sales guy walks to his car and pulls his gun on the shipping guy, the shipping guy, who also happened to be a retired marine and allowed by the owner to open carry in the office. Sales guy was lucky the only thing he lost that day was his job.

No shots were fired since the sales guy was stupid but not that stupid. We kind of had a collective "that's not terribly surprising" moment later when the cop was over for the police report and brought up sales guy's past mugshots like "was this the guy".

To be fair, the offer letter mentions he is working from a remote office (and is able to hire an assistant of his choosing). I'm hoping this whole supercommute nonsense isn't daily and instead like.. monthly for some meeting or something.

Who am I kidding though, a $10M signing bonus? He gets up to $250K per year of personal use out of the jet? They'll even reimburse him $50K of legal and advisory fees he incurs having the offer reviewed by his own lawyers. That's where I stopped reading.

The article that user links is referring to GrapheneOS (and other OSS software) as not being "free software" - and they (GNU) delves into it more here.

Basically, GNU is saying software shouldn't claim to be free and open source if they contain non free binaries / other non-free blobs.

The nuances between FOSS and OSS can be confusing. GrapheneOS is not claiming to be FOSS.

The new gamer's nexus review outlines some pretty specific prerequisites that AMD sent to fix performance on Windows, and AMD didn't communicate those until they'd had the review units for days.

What we can work on is awareness. If iOS users are aware, they can choose to simply go to the website directly and make the purchase, instead of using the app. They can still use the app for consumption.

This behavior is because Firefox is using the MIME type of the file on the save as dialog.

Regarding your issue importing them - does renaming the ones in the ZIP to m4a not work? If the issue is mixed mp3s and m4as, you could use something like ffmpeg probe to rename them.
