There’s an inside joke about Iran that after the Shah was deposed, the only thing that changed was all the illicit activity happened inside instead of outside.
Its pretty believable considering you can find plenty of Muslim Iranians who openly drink and party, hence why they’re actually the least likely to be seen amongst a group of Muslims.
PSA to always run a full length SMART check for any drives you buy, even from OEM. The short test and log are not enough, I have bought faulty drives that someone had reset the logs and power on hours.
All passed short SMART test, but failed long SMART test after only a few minutes. Found just one drive that the skrub forgot to wipe and the log showed 6 continuous years of power on usage.
Even from OEM, you will at least know if the hardware is DOA which you can then RMA.
H.265 encoding and for your sake I hope that’s not YTS’s crap tier bitrate
I mean uh… Kung Fu Panda or WALL-E
I don’t know if mac has something similar, but you can run a command on linux to list all the CPU vuln mitigations applied, and its hilarious to see on something old like a skylake or haswell with the amount of patches that have dropped since release.
All the free widgets that used to come preinstalled in Android before Google killed them to save the extra $2 of development cost from their yearly interns.
Whenever the new standard hits the almost impossible golden triangle of “cheap, reliable, and fast”.
It’s gotta be cheaper than the alternatives, better and more reliable than the alternatives, and faster/easier to adopt than the alternatives.
Early computers for example had various ways to chug math, such as mechanical setups, relays, vacuum tube’s, etc.
When Bell invented their MOSFET transistor and figured out how to scale production, all those previous methods became obsolete for computers because transistors were now cheaper, more reliable, and faster to adopt than their predecessors.
Tbf though transistors are more of a hardware thing. A better example of a standard would be RIP being superceded by BGP on the internet.
Form a new grassroots party and encourage voters to demand change in exchange for their vote.
This is a tried and true method that has succeeded in multiple countries with much worse electoral systems than the US (I can vouch for PTI in Pakistan, it took them about 20 years including 10 years of military rule)
Unfortunately, it is too radical for the folks over at c/Politics, even though it was literally what Malcolm X often suggested and what MLK did before they were both shot (albeit MLK preferred endorsing individual candidates regardless of party rather than trying to form a new one since that would be slower).
So the real answer is unfortunately to sit back, relax, and enjoy the flames.
“Federation prevents censorship and promotes balance”
merges into one instance
Wasn’t the first ever webcam just a regular camera that took shots of the office coffee pot? I’m pretty sure it was a bespoke script
I also remember the dude who made a homebrew app for his DS to control his Canon DSLR for long exposure shots because the alternative was to drag a fat laptop around or buy a $300 Canon PDA.
It’s their second highest market after Indonesia? They dragged this out as much as possible in congress and in court because its valuable to them.
They’re going to stop moderating posts
That just means they’ll favor the right wing content since it currently benefits them. They will continue to moderate and shadow hide whatever they don’t agree with or are paid to censor.
I’m using XFCE with Compiz, and since I have two monitors I have a 3D octagon instead of a 3D cube desktop.
I wonder if they’ll sell or go down in flames.
If they sell, it’ll just become overly moderated like Facebook.
If they go down in flames, a bunch of overnight competitors will compete to succeed.
Don’t worry I’m sure the billions of dollars we just gave GM to make an EV will actually result in GM making an EV and totally not pocketing free tax payer money for the nth time.
Reject modernity, everyone go back to forum boards usenet lol
Bring back Canadair Sabre plz
I have run photoprism straight from mdadm RAID5 on some ye olde SAS drives with only a reduction in the indexing speed (About 30K photos which took ~2 hours to index with GPU tensorflow).
That being said I’m in a similar boat doing an upgrade and I have some warnings that I have found are helpful:
I’m personally going with the NVME scheduled backups to RAID because the caching just doesn’t seem worth it when I’m gonna be slamming huge media files around all day along with running VMs and other crap. For context, the 2TB NVME brand I have is only rated for 1200 TBW. That’s probably more then enough for a file server, but for my homelab server it would just be caching constantly with whatever workload I’m throwing at it. Would still probably last a few years no issues, but SSD pricing has just been awful these past few years.
On a related note, Photoprism needs to upgrade to Tensorflow 2 so I don’t have to compile an antiquated binary for CUDA support.
