I've thought about Ubiquiti in the past, but they are not "stand alone" units right? Meaning I am forced into allowing the units to phone home so I can manage them through Ubiquiti's cloud service? (something I don'

In my early days of learning to program, I spent a lot of time writing console and web apps to better organize bible notes and linking verses together as I read through the bible. Then for extra "fun", I made a spam bot that would

I was procrastinating this evening on some python 3 coding. This article is just what I needed to get motivated.

I attended a few newbie classes at pycon2016. A few of them suggested Learn Python The Hard Way, to which I pointed out how the author states to never try installing python 3 on the first page.

Yea I skimmed the rest. This makes me ashamed that I even bought the guys book (Learn Python the Hard Way). His attitude is what is going to kill python, not python 3. I moved from Perl 5 to Python 3 hoping to flee the internal dev fighting

At least for the next 10 years of my life, I don't think I would ever pay more than $10k for a car (used of course). And unless I wreck my current car, I'll probably still be driving it in 10 years. And if the Tesla can smoke tire

I think I'll stick with my 2000 Ford mustang with 220k miles. The syncros in the transmission are mostly out, so I have to double clutch to down shift, but that just makes me feel more in control. Plus I can do awesome burn outs when e

One needs to also take into account what the microphone is plugged into. For instance, you could use this to transmit data over a walkie talkie, but they are choked at around 6khz

You are correct about Hillary. She represents the worst of everything. Even paying supporters to start riots: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5IuJGHuIkzY The irony is that what Trump supports, the Clintons have always suppo

Ten years ago when I was I trying to learn how to "program", I wrote this bash script (to be added into /etc/cron.daily) that dumps a few smart stats that are normally 0 or slow changing, diffs it with the copy from the

>If PA isn't doing it, your apps will be instead. You were right about that, I tested it in another comment on here. I thought that resampling would happen within a kernel driver or something. But no, apparently when an app uses the

So I did some research. I noticed some people speaking of DMIX in alsa for doing software mixing. One can install some plugin packages to enable a configurable resampler (libasound2-plugins on debian). You can then set /etc/asound

But don't some card have hardware resampling? Seems my sound blaster audigy from the early 2000's advertised something like that. If resampling is such a hog, why can't the sound card do it? Seems like thats the whole point?

This is good info but here is the thing. On my minimum base install of debian stable with only a couple of the kde packages, I don't actually have any sound related packages installed: root@t61:~# dpkg --get-selections |grep -i &qu

I might try it out again. On paper PA sounds cool, but as a power user, when I look at what processes are running on my machine, I don't like seeing any more than I have to. From my simple perspective (as a debian user), everything on

I'm still happy with them as a browser. But not sure now if they force PA on me. I've tired to use/install it (PA) before, but I couldn't stand the PA process hanging around in the background eating 20% of my cpu...espec

Don't know the status with the author, but my general experience is that the better the insurance you have, the longer they will keep you. If you are self pay and they can't milk you for money, then they'll get you out of the

For me in Texas, I am kicking myself for paying $800 rent a month for 4 years now (so I've "given" $40k to my landlord). That 40k I've given away would be really nice to help me do a down payment on a house I'd like
