Yeah, I recall even old Quadro cards in early Core era hardware often had quad mini DisplayPort.

Definitely, I agree. My comment was a bit tongue-in-cheek, I don't need new earbuds or chargers these days. 1 Amp x 5 Volts = 5 Watts isn't enough for modern phones these days, we need USB-C adapters with various outputs like 22.5

No earbuds or 5W USB-A chargers in years. :(

In some ways one could also include a Game Boy in that list!

Thanks for the additional detail! It is really fascinating to think about not just the individual traits but the collective traits and behavior of life across Earth that got it where it is today. Indeed, I'm not surprised so much at fi

The sheer volume of life here is incredible. I already know trees to be stewards of life on earth but wasn't aware they had complex inner ecosystems themselves.

Discord is pretty closed unfortunately. Using a 3rd party or modified client could risk an account ban. Scripting bots to export your own messages and such is also technically not allowed. I'm sure there's a lot of useful and basi

The Furby + LLM is an amazing and hilarious idea. Please post about it if you do this, would love to see!

I hope it makes a difference to someone somewhere. I know about healthcare interop and there is a lot of data flow. Whether or not it makes it to the patient is up to the organization, and rules/fines for not allowing it should be enfo

Can confirm, I needed to buy a passive cooling case and HDMI to Mini HDMI adapter just to setup and work on my Pi 4. I already had a spare 32GB microSD laying around. Thankfully it's fully headless now and it can get power from basical

Same. For me it's almost like a symbiotic thing to me. After using LLMs for a couple of years I noticed I use code blocks/backticks a lot more often. It's helpful for me as an inline signal like "this is a function name

I think about this sometimes. From the POV of being in the human body I feel we must all be "me". If I wasn't here having this specific subjective experience as a human user on hackernews, then I would be someone or something

Current release (7.7) and previous (7.6) worked great on my Pi 4. There were a few extra setup steps due to the unique firmware boot setup, but after it works exactly like any other OpenBSD system. I rarely think about it being ARM64. Runs

I use OpenBSD on a Pi 4 because hardware support is good and it's a fun device - rarely can I stuff a running OpenBSD system into my pocket.

This is SO fun! You have the foundation for a cool voxel-y interplanetary game if that's your jam. I had fun "getting into orbit" and watching my velocity increase at periapsis and decrease at apoapsis, then descending and la

This can apply on the personal level too. Almost everything we want is less about the thing, and more about the feeling we think the thing will give us.

Bucket hats are pretty useful as far as hats go. Glad to see they have a long standing heritage!

I know Steve Gibson as the author of "Trouble in Paradise", a tool for validating and testing zip disks and drives back in the day. He even aired on one of G4 TV's tech channels once. This guy knows and loves testing storage.

Do we really think an account that's been here since 2009 and claims to be a software developer is using ChatGPT to write comments on Hacker News?

As far as I know it's still one of the best ways to handle serial connections on Windows, and a surprising amount stuff still supports or defaults to serial. Great for managing headless OpenBSD systems.

Yeah, I use Windows Terminal for a lot of day-to-day stuff, but PuTTY is still my go-to for older systems, serial stuff, SSH tunnels, and anything needing more detailed control over the session.

It's kinda wild it took until part way through Windows 10's life to get an integrated SSH client. Even then it had to be downloaded from the store. I believe it's a native part of Windows 11 now. I'm pretty happy with Wi

Pros on cons I suppose. I liked the monospace font and I think it works well for some content, especially shorter form content. IMO a nice serif font is ideal for long form content though. I remember reading the serifs help guide ones eyes
