We turn it off in our office. It doesn’t benefit us.

You could also make the argument that ipv4 through NAT is better for privacy since it obfuscate what, and how many devices are connected to where.

fuckwit_mcbumcrumble ,

You can just look at what addresses from that range have left the network in any given 24 hour window.

If AAAA is constantly reaching our to aussie.zone one day, and the next day AAAB is reaching out to that address you can pretty easily connect the dots.

Headlamp tech that doesn’t blind oncoming drivers—where is it? (arstechnica.com)

Despite US dominance in so many different areas of technology, we’re sadly somewhat of a backwater when it comes to car headlamps. It’s been this way for many decades, a result of restrictive federal vehicle regulations that get updated rarely. The latest lights to try to work their way through red tape and onto the road are...

Visibility is good and equivalent to some LEDs with higher end lamps

No. Not even close. LEDs are blinding because they have such high output. That high output is what makes things visible.

Man I’m surprised Samsung didn’t dominate this list. My galaxy S4 was filled with so many garbage features that I never used.

Samsung and their garbageware was like 50% of the reason why I switched to iOS for my main phone.

There’s a lot more than just two temperature sensors inside your phone. Your screen has sensors, there’s a few chassis sensors, your CPU has probably 30+ inside of it etc.

The pixels is external which is unique I guess.

I gotta be honest, I actually really like windows 11.

Recall is awful and I hope enough pressure keeps it away (or at least as something you have to manually turn on). But besides that it’s mostly just windows 10 but better. I get better battery life, better performance, I actually mostly like the UI changes etc.

Also does nobody remember all of the hate for 10 when it first came out?

fuckwit_mcbumcrumble ,

I actually really liked both windows 8 and Vista too.

8 was slimmed down and optimized vs 7. Bootup time on my HDD equipped machine halved, performance was better, and the search was so good I never actually saw the start menu because I’d just blindly hit enter and it opened what I wanted.

Vista had a rough start because they basically had to start fresh with drivers. But I bought a nice new machine about a year after it came out and it ran it flawlessly. Aero looked (and still looks) so cool, and XP was just a crusty old OS by then, let alone 2014 when it finally lost support.

Pro or Home? It looks like home is going to try to force you into a microsoft account a lot harder than pro. There are a couple of tricks to bypass it in the OOBE. But if you do sign into an MS account you can go into settings and there’s a button somewhere to switch to a local account. You’d just have to seek that out and it’s a pain.

The kernel is linux. From wikipedia: An operating system (OS) is system software that manages computer hardware and software resources, and provides common services for computer programs.

Linux being designed to work with so many things (and so many things designed to work with linux) all combined make the OS. This is also where the famous quote comes from. www.gnu.org/gnu/incorrect-quotation.en.html

Multiple sources of production.

We learned during concentrating all of your production in one small country wasn’t a good idea. Plus having multiple sources has always been suggested in case anything goes wrong with one company you can still have some production.

fuckwit_mcbumcrumble ,

Those countries probably didn’t pay 5.5 billion dollars for TSMC to build a new facility in their country.

Netbird does some things better than Tailscale. But honestly tailscale is just so much better. It takes a much more “it just works” approach which for our office we much prefer. It was so much more fiddly and just awful.

Netbird also kept pissing me off because we’d have a route to the office, and if you’re in the office it would just kill all network traffic as it tries to go to itself instead of the default gateway and just never works. Tailscale kinda has the same issue, but it doesn’t end up in an endless loop it just routes all your traffic in the office through the VPN.

My friend was looking for an apartment in 2016 and he decided against this really nice one for $750 a month because it was too expensive. It wasn’t even a studio it was a reasonably sized 1 bedroom with utilities and internet included.

It’s kinda funny seeing some places that don’t accept cash, and others that charge as high as a 4% fee (that I’ve seen)?for using a credit card.

fuckwit_mcbumcrumble ,

I paid for the registration for my car in cash because I didn’t feel like buying checks to write a $25 bill.

MFers apparently charge a fee for cash transactions and never told me. Since I mailed it out and the state of Misery is awful it took 8 months before someone finally told me what I needed to do (send $26) and finally I got my plates.

fuckwit_mcbumcrumble ,

IDK if it’s the inner hispanic in me. But man do I love mowing lawns.

fuckwit_mcbumcrumble ,

Yes but what are they doing to get all these spam calls? Are they petty and signed OP up for a bunch of spam?

fuckwit_mcbumcrumble ,

Yeah I wana know what kind of hosts they found Jesus.

fuckwit_mcbumcrumble ,

Self host isn’t that bad. Say you have a raspberry pi. Install linux on the pi (basically the only thing to do with it), then google how to set up a LAMP server (Linux, Apache, Mysql, Php/python). Once you’ve followed all the steps they list then now you have a web server. To get it out on the internet log into your router and port forward for HTTP and now anyone can see that glorious Apache default web page.

Then for a domain just find the first domain register and buy the domain from them. Once you own a domain point it towards your IP address (just google what is my IP) and you’re set.

Your web page is now on the internet and anyone can type a nice name to get to your page. Anyone can also use any exploits then find so you have to make sure you’re keeping up updating your devices. And every port you forward is an intrusion point into your network should someone want to hack you.

fuckwit_mcbumcrumble ,

I do the same thing, but with gmail tags.

[email protected]

Now if I get a spam email to that address I’ll know exactly what to block.

fuckwit_mcbumcrumble , (edited )

If you’re hosting a basic web 1.0 website you’re gonna be pretty safe. Just install Apache and call it a day. As long as there’s no exploits in apache and you only port forward for basic HTTP theres very little to go wrong. Plus realistically, whos gonna want to hack your site?

fuckwit_mcbumcrumble ,

No, they made it up. There’s nothing special about the USB C port on any Apple products.

fuckwit_mcbumcrumble ,

Lots of chrome, 1 VM with 8 gigs of ram. I was using > 28 gigs of ram on my old laptop so when I got my new one I made sure to get 64.

This isn’t for a phone. At least click on the article and read the first sentence.

Music industry’s 1990s hard drives, like all HDDs, are dying (arstechnica.com)

My father told me he wanted to make USB flash drives of all the scanned and digitized family photos and other assorted letters and mementos. He planned to distribute them to all family members hoping that at least one set would survive. When I explained that they ought to be recipes to new media every N number of years or risk...

fuckwit_mcbumcrumble ,

I have a feeling USB drives will be readable for a long time to come

The drives may still be useful, but the data will long be gone. I have a flash drive from 06 that was last used in like 08 09 and most of it’s data was gone by 2019. The drive itself is fine. But what was on it has slowly faded away.

fuckwit_mcbumcrumble ,

If it has digital temperature control then it has something resembling a CPU and memory. If it’s analog then it’s probably just not that accurate and will drift over time without manual calibration.

I have a pinecil and direct heat soldering irons blow away non direct heat irons like your weller (and I think this ifixit one). Once you switch you never want to go back. Which is really disappointing because I don’t think this new ifix it one is.

fuckwit_mcbumcrumble ,

IDK about that. Honestly it seems like a lot of the assholes just went here.

Even in single player games I’ve been setting my PS5 to performance mode.

Like a tried GTA 5 in graphics mode and just no I can’t do it. After being used to 100+ FPS on PC at all given times I can’t go back to 60 or less on a console. Solid 60 is fine, but graphics mode likes to take advantage of freesync and dip below.

Are the ECUs actually remanufactered, or did they just pull them out of a dead truck, wipe them off, and call it a day?

I know the Ranger from that era has the classic leaky caps that kills it’s ECUs. You can easily buy a $20 soldering iron from harbor freight and $5 worth of caps and fix yours if it’s the same problem.

What is your default sort set to?

I’m set to scaled and subscribed by default which mostly gets me posts from the last 0-6 hours. But for some reason Lemmy on FF keeps logging me out so I get to see the default all with active sort and it’s a wildly different user base.

There was a post the other day in like Linux memes about case sensitivity in the file system. Early on the post was mostly the Linux die hards who love their case sensitivity. After about 1.5 days it showed up in active and all of the newer comments were (probably normal people) bashing case sensitivity. It’s almost like R*ddit to a degree where the general consensus in the comments can change over time as different users start seeing the post.

It also exposes children to war, murder, and other atrocities that someone that young shouldn’t be exposed to and will have serious long term mental health affects.

IMO this video touches on this incredibly well and is well worth it. youtu.be/hYWoNlMHd2k

fuckwit_mcbumcrumble ,

The parents lie or the kids lie?

When I was 12 I didn’t ask my parents for permission to create an account. I just did it and lied about my age.

CNN heavily censors what they show online. They don’t show an actual beheading, they’ll show a few minutes before it happens with faces blurred, but thats about it. But did you never really randomly get sent some fucked up videos? No 2 girls 1 cup, 1 guy 1 jar, meatspin etc? Kids don’t want to see it, but they’ll accidentally see it.

Honestly what I hate the most about the video is that 3rd places only briefly get a mention. But at the same time it makes sense since the video is about advertising to tweens and not just overall their mental wellbeing. It just happens to touch on the topic pretty well.

Apple was popular in academia even before Mac OS.

The Apple II was gaining a lot of popularity with colleges before the Mac even came out. And by the time System 7 was renamed to Mac OS 7 in the mid 90s Apple had gone HARD on getting Macs (and until the 90s Apple IIs) into all schools levels.

Honestly fuck anyone who stores things in ovens.

Guns is certainly a new one, but don’t put plastics in there. Especially if there’s ever a chance that someone else might touch your oven.

I had to move away from a 1080 Ti that I was having constant instability with, even after I went back to the retailer and got a new card.

Was it the card or was it something else? Any chance you have a 13th or 14th gen Intel CPU?

fuckwit_mcbumcrumble ,

Fermi 2.0?

Or is this going to be more like kepler where the consumer grade stuff doesn’t have all of the power hungry features, and the datacenter stuff gets them?

fuckwit_mcbumcrumble ,

People in the US give you a look and think you’re an asshole too.

fuckwit_mcbumcrumble ,

She will, but many MANY more won’t be so privileged.

fuckwit_mcbumcrumble ,

You can always just lie.

fuckwit_mcbumcrumble ,

Anyone at every step of the way.

“Whoops we didn’t collect enough urine to perform the test.”

“Whoops I spilled it and she’s already in labor”

“Test came back as positive? No that was a false alert”

“Whoops I filled the wrong information in the report and sent the authorities to the wrong place”

“I came to check on her and she clearly wasn’t on drugs so I left”

Etc. These are moral failings of everyone along the way.

fuckwit_mcbumcrumble ,

The choice is between separating a mother from a new born child and not separating her. The mother is now childless, and the child will probably end up in our horrific adoption system. Maybe they will find a loving parent, or maybe they’ll end up loveless. The choice should be easy to make.

I’m not saying lie on all tests. Just on ones where the moral boundaries are incredibly clear.

fuckwit_mcbumcrumble ,

Ok, would you be willing to gamble your career and freedom on her word that she tested dirty because of eating a salad?

I would do it without her word. Drug tests like these aren’t accurate enough, and the police aren’t smart enough to handle this appropriately. I have helped numerous people pass drug tests.

Is my one life really more important than multiple other peoples?

fuckwit_mcbumcrumble ,

Besides boomers all generations are completely made up and have no hard set start and end dates.

fuckwit_mcbumcrumble ,

Have people been going around not knowing about this until now?

I did not

fuckwit_mcbumcrumble ,

Is CS2 an actually playable game yet? I remembered trying to play it on my 4090 and getting 60fps on a blank map, and scrolling was somehow jittery.

fuckwit_mcbumcrumble ,

Steam reviews are still mixed, both recent and overall.

fuckwit_mcbumcrumble ,

It varied by manufacturer.

Some turbo = fast others turbo = slow.
