I don’t think you understand the meaning of multi purpose.

hedidwot ,

Okay… then by that logic you’re ok with America’s defence forces being deployed against citizens?

hedidwot ,

Good police need good tools to respond to anything that could happen.

Imagine a 9/11 variation with an armed group instead of planes.

That’s going to need a rapid and powerful police response. Armed forces are not an option with such short notice.

The real issue you should concern yourself with the the quality of the police themselves, not the tools they used.

I’ll back you any day on that front.

Had this issue for years over 2 machines.

One had some shit in the background the prevented standby.

Other was so simple it pissed me off… … the damn mouse jostling around in the laptop bag was walking it up.

I’m still going to point the finger at windows because 1) there should be a better tool for identifying what is keeping a system awake and 2) should be default for a mouse to not wake a portable machine who’s lid is shut.

This used to be so much easier back in win 95,98,xp days.

There was a startup folder in the start menu and all you needed to do was drag what you wanted into it.

This is an example of something that got harder.

hedidwot ,

2 is fine.

I know where you’re coming from, I use a closed notebook with external display sometimes.

I might need to be more specific. If the notebook is used as a typical notebook, and one closes it with the intent of putting it to sleep, once sleep has been reached an external mouse should not wake it.

However if you do toggle the power settings to allow the machine to function with the lid closed and/or machine docked then you do want to mouse to wake it keep awake the machine.

If it has anti islanding at least it’s unlikely to be a shock hazard.

That said are there any other concerns I’m missing?

hedidwot ,

That’s what anti islanding is.

Prevents power from going into the grid when it’s down.

Way I read it is it puts surplus into the grid to keep you elec bills down.

800 watts isn’t exactly going to set an outlet on fire.

hedidwot ,

Cheap shitty knockoff reboots of a product are not newsworthy or even post worthy.

Is my opinion unpopular?

hedidwot ,

Claims to describe the claimed issues with the framework display but instead literally outlines the issues with the chosen OS instead.

Like… fine, be annoyed, but at least be honest. The framework display has no faults.

Linux had issues with DPI.

It’s still an issue, still legit, not it’s not a faulty display.

hedidwot ,

WTF?

Unless that was sarcasm that I missed… 100’s of weapons have been tested on US soil…

hedidwot ,

Not sure what you mean.

The US was inhabited last I checked.

hedidwot ,

Right… Gotcha. So you’re a ‘change the goalposts to keep making me right as the argument and evidence changes’ kinda person.

No point engaging with your type.

hedidwot ,

I’m with the others recommending Brother. They aren’t perfect, but they’re the least bad.

Running about a 10 year old MFC 9349 CDW here, only changed the black toner so far. Used a cartridge reset truck I found on YouTube to get more life out of the original black before that.

Scans to network nicely, does 2 sided prints etc.

Go for a Brother.

hedidwot ,

You were literally just told that it has value. You, 1 ignorant person saying it doesn’t have value doesn’t make it true.

Right at this moment in time one can literally sell 1BTC for about USD$70,000

hedidwot ,

Bitcoin literally is a currency. It’s typically not a fiat currency, but it can still be exchanged for some goods and services.

I’m not pro crypto or anything, it’s just that it’s demonstrably false to say crypto isn’t real.

hedidwot ,

Great… And and will this abundance be shared or hoarded for profit like everything else that is abundant already is?

hedidwot ,

I don’t know WTF your on about… But you’ve convinced me. Have my vote.

hedidwot ,

Why sell for so little? To make a point? If so then sell for the highest amount you can get then donate that to Ukraine.

hedidwot ,

Is nice, but 2GB less RAM and missing OIS that the previous model has.

hedidwot ,

All of this skills the point. This is a second drive that failed, it was the replacement for an earlier drive that failed.

That’s what the article is all about.

A high, unexpected and unreasonable failure rate.

hedidwot ,

My pending or existing projects.

A software defined radio server. Lives up top of an antenna mast running off PoE with an RTL tuner connected.

ADSB receiver, similar to above, but on a fixed frequency.

The above 2 could be virtualised in theory, but there is an advantage in having the cable to the antenna short and thus the sbcs live up antenna masts in an enclosure.

MMDVM hotspot for ham radio (this might not count as it HAS TO use the gpio pins on the pi, this can’t be visualised even with a USB port passed through.

As an audio server that would bitstream 24bit/96kHz to an amp.
