I'm 30+ and I just make insomnia overflow by not sleeping to the next day. Then go to bed at (target - 12h). I never posted about it because it looks silly, but from many years observing I think the answer will always be very personal

I don't know if I understood your question fully, but this is a guide on how to backup libgen: https://www.reddit.com/r/libgen/comments/6rr71h/for_those_wh... You can adapt it to run partially only

IMO the free software group at least is auditable. I wish Replicant was able to catch up. Having blobs at the baseband is awful, but having the baseband accessing all RAM is just game over for privacy. There isn't what to trust in that

Interesting concept. I went ruthless too, but in categorizing and leaving the scene asap instead of discarding. Discarding made me feel bad (because I was really losing things I wanted later). I used to save everything to "see later&qu

Yosys and open source FPGA toolchains. I think FPGA are vastly underrated and hard to use because of tooling and this is promising in changing it.

I like digging for cheap hosts for hobby projects and will try to help from that experience. I never used DreamHost specifically but tried a lot of the ones on MetaDedi[1]. There you will find best dollar-ram, dollar-cpu and unlimited bandw

honest question: what about throughput? I see the issue on latency, but suppose this system is being consumed by a large GPU or a traditional out of order CPU or DMA mechanism. If you can start reads and writes over a high throughput pipe o

Have you considered recycling a thin client? This website gather specs on them and you can find used ones as low as 20 bucks on eBay. Many will draw 10-20 watts, like a Raspberry. https://www.parkytowers.me.uk/thin/hp&#

I think third point is more on not despising new tech, but I agree we should also remember not to do the same to old tech. I learned a lot with Forth, which is older than me. While that is true, I can't also deny that Rust improves a l

I rushed to comments just to make sure parky towers was there. That is a great website. Also on the same spirit, the motherboard+cpu for processors like J4105 or J1900 often are found for less than a raspberry. Even better if used. Lastly,

Sure, but what if the person/team willing to rewrite wants to do so under GPL? Or what happens next when the next project to be rewritten is GPL? I think its fair to keep the original license, but if re-licensing is allowed it should b

They removed licensing from their FAQ, but I was able to find this issue: https://github.com/ossf/tac/issues/26 I'm also curious if they will accept GPL or not
