You might wonder how Microsoft had the keys to someone else’s computer. Interestingly, when you set up a new Windows PC, the system often asks if you want to back up your recovery key to your online Microsoft account. While this is very convenient if you ever forget your password, it also means Microsoft keeps a copy of that key on its servers.

The only real thing that’s consistently annoying for me is UI scaling on high-DPI displays. Between the DE, GTK, and QT all needing different settings that all act differently.

But I guess generally once you get it set it’s mostly fine.

Use conduit. Include a pull line in case you want to add any cables later without digging it up.

And like everyone else said, fiber is probably better for the distance. You could either have media converters on either end, or better probably a couple switches with fiber ports.

Don’t really care about the drama, but I can appreciate this:

this is exactly why we do open source. when a closed product or exclusive channel is used as leverage, the correct response is to remove the leverage.

I want to see community DCs like we have community gardens. Municipal plots for hobby computing or offsite subsistance storage.

I won’t say VPSs don’t have their utility, but anyone framing it as an alternative to owning a PC is completely DeLuLu and need their head examined.

I’ve been trying using a VPS entirely as a development box. Something that has my entire development environment in it. Then I can just SSH to it from wherever and always have my workspace ready where I left off in tmux.

It has it’s pros and cons. But it’s definitely not a crazy idea. In fact it’s a pretty old idea.

Even game streaming has gotten some traction. And when GPUs all cost $4k, maybe GeForce streaming isn’t a bad financial choice.

I likely won’t be using it, but I can appreciate any Reddit alternatives.

I love the 2X. Good flavor and it’s hot enough to get me sweating. Bonus points for sliced jalapeno for some added freshness.

Everyone thinks they can leverage trump for their own agenda because he’s a wildcard. But unless you’re directly putting money toward his whatever you’re very unlikely to get the result you want. And even if you do send money his way, there’s a pretty good chance he’ll turn on your at some point.

The future is retarded.

No, your logic that it’s okay to use if you’re not an expert with the topic. You notice the errors on subjects you’re knowledgeable about. That does not mean those errors don’t happen on things you aren’t knowledgeable about. It just means you don’t know enough to recognize them.

Problem is, LLMs are amazing the vast majority of the time. Especially if you’re asking about something you’re not educated or experienced with.

Don’t you see the problem with that logic?

Of all wallets, Trust Wallet had the exploit. You had one job.

I have no idea if they’re curious about the world around them. But that’s also not the question at hand.

If a chimpanzee looks its handler in the eyes and points to a banana, it may be interpreted that the ape is asking to have the banana. This, Hobaiter said, shows apes are capable of asking questions.

Obviously not in the spirit of the question. No curiosity, no attempt to learn about what’s going on around them. The article has no examples of real questions, so to me I’d say the meme rings true.

Damn, I gotta watch that movie again.

Agreed. It’s not for me. But I gotta respect the game. They do a great job making a pretty UI in a world where everything is UI-by-engineer.

First aid kit.

Coitarche was a new word for me.
