ArchiveBox is great.
I’m big into retro computing and general old electronics shit, and I archive everything I come across that’s useful.
I just assume anything and everything on some old dude’s blog about a 30 year old whatever is subject to vanishing at any moment, and if it was useful once, it’ll be useful again later probably so fuck it, make a copy of everything.
Not like storage is expensive, anyway.
I got a CA-53 recently myself, for much the same reason.
Nobody ever said anything about my Apple Watch, but holy crap does everyone love a calculator watch.
(Which is hilarious because as a kid, I was teased as a nerd for having such a thing.)
Honestly, I think we’re 3 years out from Windows being replacable for a gaming platform.
Anti-cheat is a big one (sure, there’s “support”, but if none of the games people play are supported, is that support?), but VRR and HDR are also huge.
That trifecta is the only reason I’m still sitting in Windows, and I find myself hopeful we land there sooner rather than later so I can dump Windows and never have to think about whatever dumb crap Microsoft is going to do next.
Nobody thought it was possible, says man who led project because he thought he could make it possible.
Also, this looks like quantum entanglement which is a thing that’s hardly a new concept and/or considered impossible, so uh, dude needs to get out of clickbait mode and ship a working example instead.
nVidia released drivers that aren’t a complete tire fire under Wayland.
(It’s more of a regular pile of discarded tires now, but it’s still dramatically better.)
Well, I fully expect him to step on his dick, but I did not expect him to also kick himself in the balls while doing so.
Congrats Matt, rarely are my expectations of dumb behavior exceeded so spectacularly!
Here’s a crazy idea: make the CAPTCHAs so complicated humans can’t complete them.
That way if someone does, you know they’re a bot.
I should probably patent that or something. (Is joke, etc.)
Oh, that makes sense. I was trying to mentally imagine what kind of FDM printer could possibly need that much power and was very much coming up with a blank, lol.
I’m disappointed in that writer.
Better phrasing: Sega started as a rock’n’roll breath of fresh air that did what Nintendon’t.
Perhaps it’s just me, but they’ve been releasing a good number of actually good things, though?
Persona, Yakuza, PSO, and even the fact the Sonic movies were… good? Or at least entertaining enough, which is a victory for a video game movie series, heh.
So uh, if I can ask, why?
Like what are you doing that needs this kind of uh, upgrade?
I’m not up on corpo shareholder suits in general, but has there been a high-profile case of shareholders demanding the return of salary from CEOs that managed do nothing useful?
Like, did Carly or Leo have to pay HP back for their blunders? Or Marissa at Yahoo? And so on, etc.
I’m sure an AI babysitter won’t be immediately and utterly broken and bypassed by every single kid in these “classes”.
(Seriously: we’re talking about 8-12 year olds here and the absolutely are smart enough and incentivized to break the ever-loving crap out of this stupid idea.)
I’d seriously consider unifi gear, like the other comments seem to have also suggested.
The only thing you don’t get is ethernet drops out of the APs or anything like that, but the UAPs in a mesh configuraiton could proabbly do everything you want, unless you have a shockingly large piece of property.
underestimate how much work Mozilla does in standards and low-level shared API’s via w3c
Oh, I didn’t mean to disparage the work they do: I know it’s important and extensive. I’ve been a Firefox user since, well, it was called Netscape. It’s a critical piece of software.
I was mostly just rolling my eyes at the sheer panic they’re having with the only funding source they’ve bothered to cultivate going away, along with the fact that a good portion of that money is spent on things that aren’t the browser, and frankly, don’t bring a lot of value to the table or matter in the slightest.
Dumping the Corporation baggage and making the Foundation strongly independent makes a lot more sense than begging to let Google keep paying them, which seems to be their approach, at least based on that open letter.
These drives aren’t for people who care how much they cost, they’re for people who have a server with 16 drive bays and need to double the amount of storage they had in them.
(Enterprise gear is neat: it doesn’t matter what it costs, someone will pay whatever you ask because someone somewhere desperately needs to replace 16tb drives with 32tb ones.)
Shit, we didn’t even need an argument to stab each other.
I’ve still got bits of pencil broken off in my limbs from school.
But the article says they used Yahoo once! (When, I assume, Yahoo outbid Google.)
I agree we need an independent browser, but right now Firefox is about as independent as my cat, and they’re both a bit deluded into thinking that’s not the case.
The first thing that I have to ask: do we need Firefox-the-business providing Firefox-the-browser, or are they just dragging around a lot of Google-induced baggage that’s otherwise worthless.
I have a strong feeling on that one, but hey.
What’s your budget?
A $200 budget is going to get you VERY different options than a $1000 budget, especially since you’re wanting to connect multiple buildings.
It’s not JUST rationing, either.
Some of it is the HMO stupid shit we’ve let ourselves be subject to.
As an example, I was hospitalized with heart failure. It was great: insurance paid for everything and it was all nicely taken care of.
Except, after leaving the hospital, I had some vision issues.
I had to go to my PCP, who sent me to an ophthalmologist, who sent me to an eye surgeon, who sent me to a neurologist, who sent me back to the ophthalmologist, who sent me back to the eye surgeon, who then referred me for imaging, and then scheduled and performed a surgery that fixed my shit.
This sounds like a victory for medical science, except for one itty bitty teeny weeny little problem: it took 17 months to do that.
Had this been something other than ‘I went cross-eyed’, and way more serious, then yes, the odds of dying in that time would probably be pretty damn high.
