On the flipside, clock sync for civilians has never been easier. Thanks to NTP any device with an Internet connection can pretty easily get time accurate to 1 second, often as little as 10 ms. All major consumer computers are preconfigured

"This particular [80B] model is what I’m using with 128GB of RAM". The author then goes on to breezily suggest you try the 4B model instead of you only have 8GB of RAM. With no discussion of exactly what a hit in quality you'

Syncthing is such a reliable workhorse. I hope the Android situation gets sorted out. It's been tricky over the years as Android makes it harder and harder to work with simple files.

I wonder if this works any better than their Unifi LTE Backup. That was so bad I gave up on it after about a month. The biggest problem was the weird way the router handled routes meant that with the LTE on the network, even when it wasn&#x

As the article says, "The only way that they could mess this up is with the pricing. ... I'd expect the pricing to be super aggressive." The price to beat is the $400-$500 price point of PS5 and XBox. I'm guessing Valve

Not before becoming the worst sort of patent trolls. "in January 2009, Transmeta sold itself to Novafora, who in turn sold the patent portfolio to Intellectual Ventures". (This was long after Linus had left.)

"Linux binaries for each architecture are statically linked with musl". Love to see this! The binary is 2.6MB and runs great. I don't know if this will replace htop for me. The main feature seems to be 24 bit color and some a

Could use a more reliable source for this report. I paid for and tried Google AI for Gmail and was appalled at how bad it is. The product team there is really not executing well. I've switched now to Shortwave. It works very well and h

It's extraordinary to me that Minecraft is both the game that has the most robust mod community out there and that the modders were working from obfuscated, decompiled Java binaries. With elaborate tooling to deobfuscate and then reobf

The JetKVM is very impressive looking at a great price. Until recently it wasn't really available in the US but it looks like it is now/ The V4 Mini is a very nice piece of hardware. I paid $300 for one in April from Amazon. I als

The Date complaint is > JavaScript date objects are 1 indexed for years and days, but 0 indexed for months. This mix of 0 and 1 indexing in calendar APIs goes back a long way. I first remember it coming from Java but I dimly recall Java

I saw a quote from a high end AWS support engineer that said something like "submitting tickets for AWS problems is not working reliably: customers are advised to keep retrying until the ticket is submitted".

lsusb will get you this info in Linux, but I like the idea of a little wrapper tool to make the output easier to parse. 480 vs. 5000 Mbps is a pernicious problem. It's very easy to plug in a USB drive and it looks like it works fine an

There are almost no trees. It's one of the most striking things about the landscape and has its own beauty. What they have instead is incredibly lush grass. It looks very green and beautiful but quite different from a typical temperate

I agree Obsidian plugins do nothing about safety. But I'm not sure "most users use plugins", that's not my impression from reading the subreddit. I wonder if there's any data on it?
