Those stories sound horrible. Clearly these guys already spent or hid the money, so hopefully they get put behind bars for a long time, which is the next best thing for defrauding people in such a manner.

    I thought Disney was somewhat saturated and they had moved to catering to the high spenders almost exclusively, so this seems expected for them.

    E.g.: less staff so people would feel the need to get the fast passes to "get their money's worth", when it is so expensive to get into the park to begin.

    The API based challenges are better since you don't even need to make the site externally accessible to get certificates.

    Let's encrypt and similar services support those and for popular registrars (aws, porkbun, etc,) here are existing plugins for caddy, swag (nginx proxy with built in cert support) and a few others.

    In 2026 we have LLMs that need similar training to predict the next word. It sounds interesting on paper, but the way its pushed everywhere as something that it is not (intelligence) is annoying.

    That is no excuse for the manufacturer not being on the hook for selling garbage, it pushes the work of QA to the consumer.

    Only very large fines will end this endless streak of shit appliances. The only silver lining is that these products are targeted at people with more money to sue them.

    This garbage gets signed and SB 868 for plug in solar is still not signed. Tired of this AI BS taking time and resources away.

    SB 868 sitting there for weeks: 2026-08-31: Enrolled and presented to the Governor at 6 p.m.

    Not sure where you are from, but if from the US it could be because we don't generally get hatchbacks that look kind of like that car. I always thought they looked awkward and ugly, but they kind of have grown on me since some neighbors have a Subaru hatchback and another one and Audi.
