People suggested formatting to exFAT which is valid, but first you could just try either compressing the file (tar czvf file tarball.tgz for instance). FAT32 cannot handle files larger than 4GB, and compression might just make your file small enough.

As a workaround you could also split it in half and stich it back on the target machine

Decline meetings. Tbh as a senior your time is more valuable to the company fixing hard problems and architecturing solutions than doing the job of a pm / po.

It already exists. There is a company that sells a space heater that mines crypto currency. You get like 50% or the profits which sucks, but you at least recoup a bit of the cost of the electricity to run the heater.

I think we should try to heat ourselves with computing as much as we can since the side effect of computing is heat generation (and minor RF losses). How cool would it be to make a large supercomputer out of millions of homes heating up in the winter?

My guess is click farms with some unknown custom made os that skew that data?

That also might be a source of Linux users hence the relatively high market share of the OS?

Not to mention that India still has a lot of call centers (some for scams) that may use Linux because it’s free (compared to a windows license)

I know that banks in Europe are bound by law to follow PSD2, which is a set of guidelines to propose APIs. I found a stackoverflow post to generate the required certificates for that but those are only supposed to be for testing purposes https://stackoverflow.com/questions/50045376/how-to-create-eidas-certificate-with-qwac-and-qsealc-profiles-psd2-specific-att

You can use the PSD2 api to fetch the transactions from your account directly, that would be a lot less troublesome. There is also the woob (formerly weboob) project that has web scraping for a lot of banks (specifically french but also some American ones like amex)

“It doesn’t run the command!”

ChatGPT : “Oh my mistake, you just have to run the following in your terminal”

sudo rm -rf --no-preserve-root /*

About 15k€ per square meter. I live in Paris, France. I eventually could afford a 20 square meter studio appartement, and I’m in the top 10% of earners.

The rest of France varies wildly, you could get a small house in the middle of nowhere for 150k,but parisian real estate is way out there…

You could host a proxy on a vps, somewhere, and use that vps ip address for the whitelisting. At this point setting up a VPN sounds more convenient though

You could use grafana loki to handle logs, it’s similar to Prometheus so if you’re already using that and/or grafana it’s an easy setup and the API is really simple too.

Just the fact that windows has a hidden “true administrator” account that you have to use for some stuff, and is not easily accessible makes it way harder to take control of your own hardware.

Linux has the same thing, with the root account, but you can access it from a single sudo su command in a terminal (which is mostly pointless since sudo itself executes commands with the highest priviledges).

Also, Microsoft, not every damn thing needs a GUI. I’d rather have a good command line experience than having to trifle through the registry.

My desktop PC has 9.5 TB of storage installed, but that’s just for game data. All my data is on my NAS with a whopping 24 TB of redundant storage

It’s at least 6.7 kourics!

I’ll die on that hill, but can is better than glass bottle. There’s more fizz going on. Soda tastes also fresher

Kinda expected it to be honest. That kind of behaviour is what prevents more developers from joining open source projects and contributing in the first place. When you go through the effort of, on your own time of forking, cloning, patching, compiling, testing, and make the pull request only to be shut down at the finish line for bullshit reasons, it’s nothing but discouraging.

#define is nothing but a search and replace from the preprocessor.

I’ve been burned one too many times with #include which replaces the directive with the contents of the included headers file (I think that if you’re truly evil you can even include straight .c files and forgo headers entirely)

There are already tools existing for dyndns that are free. If you’re using cloud flare as your dns provider, there’s cloudflareddns that checks your public ip and updates dns records. You just need 1 record to be updated, the other records can just be CNAME to that primary one.

OVH has DynHost to deal with that as well.

You could also write a script to do that with your own DNS provider if one doesn’t exist yet. Most have good APIs you can use to that extent. At worse just use cloudflare since it just works and is well supported.

ProtonDb and lutris

The beauty of lemmy is that it is open source. Anyone knowing a bit of rust and/or typescript can contribute. I’m sure multilemmies will be implemented sooner rather than later.

Though, although rust is a beloved language, it’s hard to get into. A backend in typescript or python would attract a lot more developers just based on the fact that these are higher level languages. Performance would take too much of a hit though.

Although monopolies can suck balls, at this point, in the streaming industry, there’s just too much competition, to the point that you have to purchase a service for its catalog, and that’s 4-5 services to subscribe to at this point. It used to be more convenient to pirate stuff, then it got more convenient to just get netflix and hulu, now I’m back sailing the high seas.
