Now a days a lot of games you can’t even do that. They run the games in a vm so crackers and hackers can’t mod it.

To this audience yes. My wife a 38 year old college grad in law school has no clue what source code is and she’s married to a computer programmer.

Defaulting an int to 0 is understandable. Defaulting a uid to 0 is terrible (if you reread my response that’s what I said)

My first guess was defaulting the uid to -1 lol. But yeah that works too.

Take a look at the bug. It’s polkit defaulting to 0 if dbus is down for the UID. A terrible but understandable default. It has absolutely nothing to do with the systemd structure other than being a component with a bug.

The main users of my Plex server are not tech savvy. They are my parents/aunts/uncles/cousins/brothers in law/etc. I could consider other platforms but Plex works because it’s stupid simple for clients. That’s my nu

what do you mean? if they broke sha256 in any meaningful way then people can skip (or significantly game) the whole mining thing...

macOS though? I don’t feel very productive using their OS. I would rather have a slightly slower laptop and feel more productive. But I don’t compile anything locally or anything. It’s all in the cloud and stuff.

I’ve only used wireguard as a client but it’s simply amazing how few resources it consumes. Openvpn when transmitting data would be 10-20% my cpu on a 9th gen i3. I don’t even see a blip with wireguard.

Too lazy to look but I believe someone in a vm went from windows 1.0 to windows 7 (with all upgrades in between) and some of their personalization options from 1.0 (or maybe 3.11) were still present in 7. Insane!

But you don’t build factories to fund quarterly profits. It should be normal risk mitigation if you are dealing at that scale to have a plan B. Even if it’s your own plant.

Makes sense in hindsight. But I never thought I would have any issues running a relay. Also just got a raspberry pi v1 and was looking for a project.

running an exit node is a really bad idea. someone is going to do something dumb on Tor and the local PD isn't going to know anything about Tor and will come knock on your door. i used to run a relay and even that became too much of a

Personally I run a plex server and that one piece of hardware I’ve kept intel because of qsv. Amd has no answer for that. That one workload is 100% intels wheelhouse.

Is it just me or archive is unusable on mobile now due to the capcha being off screen?

my thought exactly, its a feature not a bug. a way for a unit test to possibly "play" the game with RNG effectively "disabled"

True. I think that would be a big footgun for them though. My friends and family use roku for my plex but load their own apps through it to bridge gaps. I can’t be the only one like that.

As a plex user I’m happy with their business model. I get $30 devices to watch all my media on.

I thought NJ was bad! I pay $18k a year for a 1.1 million house (assessed at $950k though). Sending three kids to public school though so I make out and then I’m outta here!

His video on Monday was great about this. I like that they checked first if they were running low on memory and then just rebooted the darn thing if it was.

Pros: you run your web app as a local app without reprogramming your app. Cons: you are literally running a web app in a browser and not a native app.
