Wait, I thought that you need either a hacked driver or a very expensive license to split up Nvidia GPUs, even within containers?

When I last checked in on Linux running on a 2-in-1 a year or two ago it wasn't good. There are some minor hardware issues with Surfaces specifically (webcam and some other random stuff doesn't work without a ton a work) but what

Good riddance. MicroSD cards are way overused as a storage medium, and they are such a fucking crapshoot quality-wise. We are long overdue for an external variant of NVMe that can take it's place in all but the most micro of applicatio

I love seeing new tool changer designs but the space. It truly seems to be the future of printing, rather than filament changers like mmu/ams/ercf. I've been working on my own tool changer for a spare bedslinger I have laying

That's why you gotta shoot em up with Python to get them hooked on programming then teach them enough C++ to hang themselves with.

I like to write my Python in a vertical monitor, it does reinforce keeping your lines short. There's always going to be examples where you just need to have that one line of arcane garbage, but for the most part I find that I can scan

Am I understanding the article correctly that it's for new installs only? Also is "on by default" the right wording for something that needs a registry change to turn off? That just seems like it's forced with a workarou

As a joke, I built a jar that would call a phone number to inform them the status of the jar. Thing looked like a bomb.

Haven't touched a GameCube or a Wii in a long time, but didn't those things not support hot plugging GC controllers in general?

I think that auto dimming has made that aspect so much worse. It fails often, and removes that aspect of driving from the driver's mind. They just don't think about it anymore and blind the fuck out of pedestrians and cyclists sin

I'm probably going to get clowned on here, and although I love sqlite for local development, I do wish that projects stop using sqlite as their only option for deployment, or worse, shove a temporary one in the same directory as persis

After having built a Voron and a couple other kit projects lately, I've fully converted over to threaded inserts in my designs, it adds one extra step but it feels so much better than trying to get a machine screw to bite without crack

I love DRF, but we don't really use it anymore for front to back communication. Too much working around the pure REST implementation to get anything done. However, we'll still throw it into our projects because the data folks love

For us, the hardwired network is faster but they have pretty aggressive blocking rules (no music/social media/Debian apt repos for some reason), and the WiFi is speed limited but mostly unrestricted. Keeps the business critical st

Allegedly in the early days press would get special steam accounts that let them download everything from the store free of charge.

I'm surprised that it's not standard to show some basic performance metrics when using an IDE's debug tooling. It's already aware of the processes that it's spawning so it should be able to keep an eye on them. Just

Oh yeah, Godot is perfect for that. GD Script is very approachable (it's like if Python got Typescript-ified). I'm sure that as the GDExtension project develops, it'll only be a matter of time until someone builds a visual pr

From the perspective of a hobby unity dev who's making a jam game in Godot to feel it out, Godot has a lot of rough edges, weird choices, and stuff that's just missing. Stuff that I've encountered so far: - A very annoying is

Sure thing! We have migrated to Strawberry for all our projects going forward, next time I have my hands in those project guts for maintenance I'll document some and send it on.

I loooove Django, any project that I work on that isn't Django causes me to yearn for it greatly. However, there's two things that have been minorly bothering me about it: - The complete lack of any motivation to support type hint

BOOX Note Air2. It's pretty good for what I need. The fact that it's Android underneath is really nice.

I'll second what others said about chairs and nice keyboards. If you're going to spend a lot of time using it, it might as well be a good one. Some other things that helped me with a mainly work from home life: - A very large desk

Last I heard, it's the same supplier as the Switch OLED; that's why it uses MIPI over eDP. Samsung is the manufacturer I think

Could be like the improvements seen when running applications using DXVK. My understanding is that sometimes these translation layers can use newer and more efficient methods than the path that a native implement for the time would use. I&#

Others in the thread have pointed this out, but they did have a lite plan that wasn't rolled out broadly for some insane reason. They axed it this month: https://www.theverge.com/2023/9/25/23889917/y

I wouldn't mind subscribing to YouTube Premium. I use YouTube a crap ton, and every time I hear a creator weigh in on the matter, they claim that subscribers that use YTP earn them way more than 100s of ad views. This could potentially

When I used to work at a bank, the staff at a branch that still used tubes at the drive through would complain about how hard they are to maintain. Apparently they were down to a single contractor in the whole county who knew how to fix the

One complaint that I have about ipv6 and mac addresses is that they use hex separated by colons. Not only is it way longer than an ipv4 address, you can't rattle one off using a number pad. Back when I did full time IT, that sounds lik
