I wish it was socially acceptable to interest-dump someone and for them to do the same to you.
Just getting a 5-10 minute lecture deep into a topic that someone is passionate about is fun and educational! Much better than trying to make small talk or talk about the 3 common topics at your workplace (at mine it is local tv, energy spending/taxes, and cars), which is often sports. Then you get to learn about other people’s interests too!
I peel carrots to give the peels to my dog because it is her favorite.
I peel pumpkins/squash that aren’t roasted, and potatoes if they will be fried (very different texture and they are unhealthy anyway), what other vegetables do people peel normally? I am coming up blank.
It is funny because electric motors have nearly unlimited* torque depending on the kind. If you have thick enough power cables and winding conductors, you can just keep pushing it harder to get more torque.
It is like the thing they are very good at, besides sound levels, double or triple the efficiency, low/no maintenance, simpler with less parts, no emissions, etc…
Literally the only good thing about combustion engines are their fuel source energy density.
I think the problem is that motorheads see the enshittification of the auto industry as a whole and just say it’s because of electric motors because it happened right about the same time as EVs started coming out and try to push back on the wrong thing.
Yep. I have posted on stack overflow exactly 3 times. One time it was marked as duplicate and referenced to something that was not even the same topic. One time I had too much detail and debugging done for the classic knowitalls to come make a smartass remark and was completely ignored. The final time I got one comment, addressed it, and that person was never heard from again lol.
I wish I could use unattended-upgrade.
It literally restarts my server even when I disable the option, leaving it hung if the USB boot key isn’t in there.
I had to stop using it, so now I just manually upgrade because that doesn’t auto-restart without my permission…
But on this threat model? Why would it not be good?
It has to physically accessed on the PCB itself from what I gather.
There are 2 “threats” from what I see:
someone at the distribution facility pops it open and has the know how to install malware on it (very very unlikely)
someone breaks into your home unnoticed and has the time to carefully take apart your vacuum and upload pre-prepared malware instead of just sticking an IP camera somewhere. If this actually happens, the owner has much much bigger problems and the vacuum is the least of their worries.
The homeowner is the other person that can access it and it is a big feature in that case.
Hell, a 12TB WD red Plus in the EU is 300€. $160 for a 14TB is absolute dirt cheap
Their flagship models only IIRC.
But the principle of an ODM is that the company lets another company completely design, manufacture, etc… Their product and then they paste their name on at the end and sell it as their own, which is why the design is often identical, because it is a reference design with a couple tweaks.
Like 99% of the cheap smart watches do this, as well as the Nothing CMF line. The non-flagship HMD line historically did this, maybe it changed in the last couple generations have changed it?
I am still rocking my Xperia 5ii. The fingerprint sensor stopled working after 2 years completely (a known problem that persists to newer models and it is thought to be a hardware problem, but it doesn’t happen on any other phone with a power button fingerprint reader and booting in safemode and back or a phone reset to factory can fix it for a short time, so I think it is planned obsolence in firmware), the software support only lasted 2 years (1 android upgrade IIRC, I am on 12), and the battery usage is 2.5-3% per hour with the screen off on 4G and 2%/hr on WiFi.
Other than that it is a great phone! Pro camera app is also awesome.
HMD is a Chinese OEM. 90% of their phones are just off-the-line Foxconn reference designs with almost stock android.
It is the illusion of choice that happens when companies and IP are massively consolidated into monopolies.
I have heard that their phones are pretty good!
The thing is, all phones nowadays, even OEM Chinese phones are good. 100€ budget Samsung’s are good because there hadn’t been any actual phone innovations for a decade.
I think it is just him and his way of marketing his companies, not the phone itself.
Nothing is pretty much a Chinese OEM…
The phone is fully designed, engineered, tested, built, and firmware written in China… Pei just has his marketing office in the UK so he can claim it as a UK company. Maybe they give some aesthetic design direction in the UK too. Pei has a history of lying to make his companies seem like something they aren’t.
(Though they did have a couple of software job postings up recently, so maybe they are trying to slowly change that and do some of the software in the UK)
True, but this is a reaction to companies discarding their employees at the drop of a hat, and only for “increasing YoY profit”.
It is a defense mechanism that has now become cultural in a huge amount of countries.
That is not true even a little bit. Look at any inkjet paper under a microscope made after the mid 2000s.
I would be interested to see a figure of people with home servers that have had that happen to them. DoS & pwned yes, especially 15+ years ago before there were good resources, TLS, reverse proxies, or authentication front ends.
I would be very interested to see any stat whatsoever of selfhosters that have gottened murdered specifically because of their server.
It is extremely important to note that in those days, people just opened their, often out-of-date, servers completely to the internet via a DMZ or port forwarding, let ssh be open to the internet, didn’t harden ssh at all, and most people didn’t use a VPN for downloading.
That is literally like saying that people who light wall torches in their wooden home burned their house down, so let’s not use lightbulbs or electricity.
What is the difference between a paid service and a paywalled service in this case?
So you have absolutely no devices that are a different resolution than you download? You don’t direct play 4k on a 1080p screen for example.
Me too, and the new one I didn’t even realize this change happened. I saw there were no breaking changes, updated, and saw “oh, it isn’t synced anymore” so I reselected the folders, it ran a sync check on everything, which took a while, and everything works fine again.
I didn’t even realize there was a difference until now, but I guess there is a start/stop sync switch.
Damn, I am only at a ratio of like 10 from some season packs of Chuck and The Mentalist. 565 is crazy!
I wished posteo allowed custom domains… They would be perfect then!
