I’ve been talking about this for years! I got the idea from razer but I’m imagining the laptop chassis adds a nice screen, enormous battery, better IO, and then it just uses the touch screen as the track pad.

It could be so cool

Can you tell me more about these homemade android TV boxes? I built a really shitty front end to “turn” my Linux based mini PCs into a media streamer but it lacks things like Chromecast and reliability haha

I mean the common thing I see in this thread is just people recommending a docker container that hosts the server. Not really what I would call “3rd party bullshit” and I would absolutely recommend running a game server in a docker container. It makes a lot of things easier.

Unfortunately this is pretty much useless. They collect so much data from so many people that they will simply not use your data for training.

They will continue to sell it though.

About a year ago I got one of those alarm clocks that slowly light up to simulate the sun rise, and that’s been a game changer. I wake up so much easier and feel less groggy when I do.

Highly recommend

$1000/month? Really?

Google Docs (and their online office programs) aren’t even the only valid option anymore. I mean even Office is only $6/month if you only want the web version, or $12.50/month if you want desktop apps.

someone will scrap NASAs current human space flight plans to promote their own plan, which in itself will be scrapped when a new administration comes in

Kinda like how each administration switches if we are going to Mars or the Moon next based purely on what the previous guy said haha

Because I read the article I actually know the answer! It’s the first time this technology has been used in a human, and it’s been a huge success so far. Quote from the article

The BiVACOR total artificial heart, invented by Queensland-born Dr Daniel Timms, is the world’s first implantable rotary blood pump that can act as a complete replacement for a human heart, using magnetic levitation technology to replicate the natural blood flow of a healthy heart.

Yeah I considered community service too, and I think it would be a fair alternative.

When I was young and dumb I got caught spraying some graffiti and got like 50 or 60 hours of community service. Which would equal like $6-8/hr, and I think that’s a pretty even trade.

I guess it depends on what you define as “basic SQL”. Because most people are already used to working with desktop apps, and familiar with the office programs specifically.

You’d essentially have to teach them programming. Its like when people say “terminal is better than GUI” (it’s me, I say that) but then you forget about all of the people who don’t know the difference between a desktop and a modem

To be fair I think Excel is faster to get a novice up to speed than teaching them to program

Yeah the kid got like a $400 fine and told not to do that again. I think that’s a fair punishment for doing something really really stupid as a teenager.

Still probably not. The code also deleted files, deleted accounts, and created infinite loops which took down large chunks of the network and infrastructure.

You could take your code, but you can’t take down the company.

I only use chrome for my work stuff, and that’s because I work with g-suite a lot.

Chrome fucking sucks

Child Sex Abuse Material.

Basically (and usually) child pronography.

I did this with a google home mini. I could not get it to work correctly, got mad, threw it at a wall, and put it in a box.

A few months later I found it, plugged it in, and it works perfectly. Except the strange rattle if you shake it haha
