Last time I had to do that, it was on Windows 11 on a friends PC that was unexpectedly using 1024x768 on his 4k HDR monitor. Glad I don't have to deal with that, Arch just works

So you are talking about a detonation, a specific type of explosion that involves a supersonic wave, almost everything you would see as a munitions expert would be one of those. A dictionary definition of explosion is "a rapid expansio

My P1 (G4) gladly accepts power over USB-C, depending on what I'm doing the 80W my monitor supplies are not enough and it slowly discharges, but it's enough to keep it going for a day's worth of work and recharge over night.

They are not sending good baskets with the Bambino? The baskets on the Infuser are reasonably good, just a bit weird as they are a bit narrower on the base.

The trick is getting a kettle that fits the brew chamber on top, so it steams while the water boils, I use a bonavitta with a mesh strainer as it's mouth is a bit too wide, but it seems like the fellow is almost a perfect fit. https:&

In my 12 years of python I was hit with compatibility problems once, in a school project where someone started in python 2 and we changed for python 3. What libraries break that often so I can stay away?

Unless it's accounting for no direct flights between Caracas and San Francisco, which would mean either the Caracas person needs to fly to SF connecting in Houston, or both go to Houston in a direct flight, meet there and go back. It&#

I'm not aware of much fusion happening between different lenses (although I saw an article using that for better portrait mode bokeh), but AI is used to stack multiple images from the same sensor. You can do de-noise, HDR and other sta

Looks like the goal was to procrastinate less on hobbies and personal stuff, hiring someone to do that stuff would not solve anything.

They literally are more efficient than burning gas, a good heat pump can do over 300% efficiency (KWs of heat in your house vs KWs of electricity used) while a furnace can only hope to get 100%. Even if the heat pump is fed from gas power

I've experimented a bit with adding some bicarbonate to very acidic espressos. It mutes the flavor a little bit but completely kills the harshness that made it unpleasant. It is not a fix for under-extraction though, it fixes beans tha

Mine is running from a micro-SD card (+adapter on the old boards) since... I don't know, which year did the Pi 2 came out? It's not the same Pi anymore, but I'm re-using that 8gb card ever since.

But some have enough memory that you would probably not miss the SO-DIMMs, I mean, do you have a workload needing more than 32GB that you would run in the notebook (with the limited CPU and thermal constraints)? But just 8GB in a non-upgrad

Just use Nextcloud then, your own drives on your home, but no risk of losing pictures if your phone is lost/stolen/broken between backups. Can also automate the encrypted offsite thing.

I honestly feel it's easier to type fn (caps and \ when hold in my board) + numbers for f-keys than to use dedicated ones. Now 40%, that's too little keys, a number row is important

Anything that you can easily checkpoint/finish quickly, while needing a ton of computers to do, map-reduce type jobs. For example, let's say you need to process a few million images, each taking a few seconds to process. You can s

I run my homeserver in a Lenovo m920q I bought for about 300USD (but it's a 32GB, 1TB NVMe 9th gen i5 model, there are models from like 100USD up). These 1-liter PC's are amazing, almost completely silent, idles at like 4W, but ha

So now instead all devices can keep their fans on and melt compartment material bag as nobody would assume the device is that dumb to not sleep when closed. Much better.

That's almost what I wanted from Lenovo with the X1 Fold, I already have space to carry around a 14" notebook, I gain nothing on a device that's half the size, but twice the screen on the same space, that would be awesome.

But that's just a terrible financial system, in Brazil you would just wire that money, possibly with a call to your manager to ensure the transaction is ok. But even if you want to use a literal antique like a cheque, you should be abl

Come to Brazil, we have taxes on products 'circulating', moving your products between logistic centers is OK, but if the product is lost or stolen, taxes are due (as if it was a sale). Some tax regulations were considered illegal

Wow, the word sounds bad on the OSX land. I have a couple meetings/day on Meet, some small, some 20+, usually with screensharing by others, with a laptop with two webcams, 3 mics (internal, external webcam and dedicated mic) and 4 audi
