It's not quite that ARM support isn't good on Linux, it's that there aren't high-performance ARM chips with strong general-purpose software stacks. Like the Raspberry Pi is very well supported, but otherwise the only upm

Well the upside is that you can run a laptop-sized model and still have enough memory left over to run a couple of Electron apps.

Well a substantial proportion of home buyers in Canada put down only the minimum 5% down payment.

I mean my hope is to get the senders' IP/accounts/email reputation flagged for having additional bounces.

by Marsymars 1mo ago
Right, but I'm asking "what bounce issues?" Like for my usage there are no bounce issues with the ~400 legitimate providers that I have Hide My Email addresses from. The only ones with bounce issues are the spammers who'

The bounce rate of what, exactly? Because the bounce rate of Hide My Email addresses being deliverable is going to rise over time, by design. Whenever I start getting spam at an address that's been leaked, I deactivate it. I've do

Yeah, my implication was just that the worst thing I could think of were cameras where the owners don't realize that some third-party is recording them. LEDs won't stop creeps — the camera owner can always disable LEDs with a bit

I have interest in this. My Echo Wall Clock is the only reason I still have an Alexa device in my home.

Nest cameras used to have a user toggle to enable/disable the camera LED; not the worst reason I can think of.

I'm not a country, but on Monday I'll be enabling Kimi models for my company's GitHub Enterprise account, and encouraging our teams to use those for their coding tasks.

I did this five years ago, and it's been great. My wired access points are still Wi-Fi 6 and I've got no inclination to upgrade them yet, connectivity has been near-bulletproof.

I've never really liked talking on cellphones and got a grandstream cordless DECT phone that runs over a voip line probably a decade ago. One of my favourite purchases.

Yeah, I mean I'd be interested... but you've got wifi/BT off, so I don't even know what would be taking up much battery otherwise. My light levels are probably 50/50 6% (at night in bed) and ~33% (other times). I di

I didn't keep exact numbers, but of the ~400 Hide My Email aliases I have, probably 85% of them allowed changing email in the online self-serve, 10% required contacting customer support, and maybe 5% needed a new account.

This is a bit surprising to me because I switched emails some time ago, and most sites were painless, but there were a fairly long tail of sites that had no self-server mechanism to change email from one to another. A fair number of them re
