What's the advantage of this vs just setting the site up on a free cloudflare plan and use a caching rule?

I was taken by how freely they spent months of man hours on things to go 'meh' and casually throw them away. Different world. Quite holistic with their production costs

Imagine what a big piece of iron could do, it makes me think of the stories recently of people who came out of cloud and run everything of one or few bare metal hosts.

I wonder if that's why the cpu is idle for part of the time, it's waiting for sockets to become free.

I'm guessing the staffing losses are concentrated at the lowest paid end, which is why getting rid of them has seen average comp increase by 60%.

It was, and worked well with rtf. I vaguely recall it being better than notepad if you were for example looking at strings in binary files, something like that, I forget...

Wordpad was good for some stuff, I forget what, iirc it loaded in 0.1 seconds vs 0.01 for notepad.exe

The only reason I use Notepad is that it opens instantly. A fancy think with loads of features that's slow to open should be a new product.

The Teams works well as a PWA on Ubuntu, everything works meeting ings chats etc etc.

Parent referenced push cart use which is from the article, hence my reply was also intended in that context. For future reference you might want to go a little easier on people rather than coming straight in with the snarky 'you must b

Nobody here is talking about unions in 2025 except you, the whole post is about the decline of British shipbuilding which happened in the second half of the 1900's, along with a lot of other industry.

Come now, trying to talk about UK industry in the 70's without mentioning unions?

by Neil44 11mo ago
Ha, see what the unions have to say when you threaten the livelihoods of the poor downtrodden push card operatives, there will be placards and flaming braziers by the front gates before you can blink.

Same, I have a few hundred Wordpress sites and bot activity has ramped up a lot over the last year or two. AI scrapers can be quite aggressive and often generate a ton of requests where for example a site has a lot of parameters, the bot wi

Yeah I definitely want to speak to an AI bot when I've just been in a car crash. /s. There will be a place for this though, for people who either can't afford or don't want to pay for better.

I thought the same. Surely the number of people buying a 20k knife so it looks good when they play must be extremely low. The bulk have to be speculators.

PWA for Outlook and Teams, just straight web access for everything else. You can also access onedrive etc via the nautilus file manager as a onedrive:// url which is easier for some things.

Not super different to buying a server from Dell, HP etc. Very different target market however.

I switched to Ubuntu on my main machine this year and even as a heavy 365 user it's better. Battery life is massively improved. I even still run the odd game on cs2. 11 feels like toy town in comparison.

I agree. But there's different ways to respond to it. You can be fatalistic and say well I wasn't born rich or I'm no good at XYZ so why bother. Or you can do well and then say it wasn't luck I work hard every day. To me

Didn't Goldie accidentally refer to Banksy as 'Rob' in an interview once too.

It's the Deliveroo, Just Eat etc crowd too. CBT and off you go. No incentive for further training.

I did my CBT a few months ago after driving for 30 years. It was harder than I assumed it would be. But what scared me the most was the 18 year old who did his at the same time, never driven on the road before. The phrase organ donor seemed

I guess the shear quantity of land that AU has available for solar and wind takes away a lot of the issues for you guys?

If both SMT cores are being asked to do the same workload they will likely contend for the same resource and execution units internally so the boost from SMT will be less. If they have different workloads the boost will be more. Now throw i

I would be tempted to try using the Pi as a router & firewall with the server on another subnet, having it wake the server using traditional WOL as needed. That feels simpler to me and more controlled. But my overall feeling is that not

I knew it was going to be coded from the headline, wasn't sure in which direction. Cheers for saving the click.

For me it's summed up by the £100M tunnel to protect bats. Someone says the nice bats in those nearby woods might not get on with the big scary trains so £100M gets spent to resolve the issue. Scale that kind of thinking up over the wh
