I think it gets some flak but I’ve been super happy with Unraid.

Migrated hardware by moving the usb drive over to the new system and it didn’t blink that everything but the HDDs was different. Just booted up and started the array and dockers. The JBOD functionality is great. Drive loss is just an excuse to add a bigger drive.

There’s weirdness sometimes if devices don’t respect your network’s dns settings and just use their own. You can override that by forcing a dns redirect if your router supports that but not all consumer ones do unless you put openwrt or something on them.

I now deeply want to hear the call to prayer sung in English in a heavy Minnesotan accent. Any accent really. LA, Texan, Georgian (state, not country; you know what, either).

Yes and no. The one the Nazis used was / is also a symbol used in Asia. (And really, everywhere. It’s a fairly basic pattern.) The Nazis used it because of their obsession with Aryans. Sometimes it’s at an angle, sometimes it’s not.

Generally in the west, unless it’s on a statue of budda, any swastika-ish symbol since the ~1930s is going to be a reference to Nazis though.

Modern specs are complicated. I vaguely remember something about a cryptographic key the driver needs to be signed with to successfully complete the handshake to enable all display options between the computer and display.

Not entirely unwarranted either, an unexpected amount of voltage on an unexpected pin because the driver / hardware is misconfigured damaging your TV would suck. (Still sounds like the Forum is being a dick about it though.)

There’s a whole cycle of perverse incentives with University Press.

The underlying research is necessary and valuable but the marketing arm of universities blow everything out of proportion.

Ah, fair enough. Though I’d probably swap Gideon and Ancillary.

I’m sure there are reasons but it’s always seemed like a lost opportunity that the Steam app doesn’t work as an app store for mobile games on phones.

~Halfway through atm and enjoying it, reminds me a bit of Ancillary Justice. Didn’t know it was a series. What’s your runner up?

I’d settle for something like the Red Magic 11 with better cameras from them. Saving a couple millimeters instead of having a bigger battery and flat back is silly.

Back-feeding the grid during an outage is the main concern. One panel isn’t going to hurt a line worker. A neighborhood of them might.

“Normal” installations have a transfer switch of some kind between the house and the grid to prevent this. Which means a permit and electrician.

Don’t know what’s different about these panels / installations that makes them safe without that.

That might stop them if they cared enough to read.

That’s true, but I also think there is a stark difference between a low quality ‘off the record’ recording and standing at the official podium taking questions from vetted journalists to a live feed on every news network.

Anyone paying the slightest bit of attention has known he is, at best, an odious man-child for years. But a lot of people actively try to avoid paying attention because they’ve been trained that it’s “just politics” instead of the infrastructure that impacts every aspect of their lives.

I believe you’re talking about the Steam Link. Which if you had ethernet running everywhere worked pretty good.

The old Steam Machine branding was more a set of guidelines / branded manufacturer specs for mini-PCs. Not many actually came out and yeah it got shut down pretty quickly. Though it was the origin of Steam OS / Big Picture Mode and what became Proton.

That would be amazing, but given how speculative the Framework and other RISC projects are I feel like that would be a massive headline for Valve.

Fwiw, SearXNG is using a very similar engine to Kagi and you can host it yourself and tweak it if desired. There are also a bunch of public instances if you prefer that route.

Every operation your computer does. From displaying images on a screen to securely connecting to your bank.

It’s an interesting advancement and it will be neat if something comes of it down the line. The chances of it having a meaningful product in the next decade is close to zero.

One of the more telling aspects of who ICE is targeting.
