I found the same. It's impressive how much bluesky resembles twitter, but I'm not sure if that's a compliment. On Mastadon I find much smaller circles, but much more engaged. I think bluesky is winning at discovery. If I wan

Not even a $5 VPS - my first WP site was shared hosting. Less relevant these days, but as barriers to entry go, wordpress was only one step higher than notepad.

Not including actual costs seems nuts. Especially with some of the tariff structures expected in the near future, some of those costs are not insignificant.

A bit of a tangent, but on your note amount multi-material being wasteful - you can improve that a lot by thinking ahead in your design and being strategic about where you use colour. Your benchy is almost a worst-case scenario (which is li

This reminds me of the systemd bug where usernames starting with a digit were mishandled (#15141). It seems to me like something that "should" be relaxed, but we need to have high confidence in the entire foodchain. adduser seems

I had fun in the vmware-broadcom transition because the broadcom portal doesn't allow that, but the vmware portal did. Not even in my username, just in the surname field. The new portal ate it on that so hard, I wasn't even allo

For me, it's some very simple things. Like being able to set the alt behaviour separately for left/right alt (so I can have the meta behaviour while still being able to type funky characters)

I don't think this is an issue the Pico has had. Regardless, the first reseller that came to mind (thepihut, UK) doesn't seem to have any issues selling me multiples at RRP.

It's not unusual to effectively self-insure for shipping. If insurance costs you more than lost shipments, it stops making sense to pay for insurance. If insurance costs less than lost shipments, it stops making sense for the insurer

I think that'd be the huge differentiator - you need that feedback loop that there's actual results/outcomes from your work. If you just sit 8 hours a day effectively solving the world's most gruesome captcha, I wouldn&#

UDP has very low cost, the header is pretty much source and dest ports. For this low, low price, you get compatibility with existing routing, firewalling, NAT, etc.

Interestingly, where I am they take no money - and give the same advice. My partner just received the all-clear after detecting it early, following advice, and attacking it early. And the doctors got paid the same as if she’d never existed.

It took me a moment to put this together too, so to be clearer - the wireguard endpoint is in docker, so you're adding the docker bridge to your vpn. So DNS is handled by docker, just as containers can already address each other by na

I think this mirrors my take. Not a fan of the current IP regime, and I'm all for IP activism. I don't think the IA is the right place to fight it. It is a valuable resource, which is why it needs to be insulated from the impact

The US often just says 'AM radio' to refer to the MW band, because they don't have commercial broadcasting on the LW band, so there's no need to disambiguate. In the UK we usually specify LW or MW because both bands are

I'm against the death penalty - I do believe there's times it makes sense, and I certainly believe there's crimes worthy of it. But I don't trust the state to make this determination with 100% accuracy - and anything le

I suspect it only looks like overkill in the context of the simplest possible example. Once you start adding things like pre-inst, post-inst scripts, binary redirections with update-alternatives, I suspect the complications start to pay off

You can't really send anything back, they're junk sender addresses. You either send btc to their wallet, or you don't. (Already had this thought process when I was getting so many of these, I wanted to invite a bidding war)

I believe the biggest increase in security since 9/11, is that passengers are no longer expected to sit down and behave. Pre-9/11, the expectation was you don't draw attention to yourself, wait it out, you're going to ha

You can fire, there is a process, and this wasn't it. It's that simple. There is a huge difference between not being able to fire people, and not being able to arbitrarily fire people on the spot.

My previous contract (Ireland) was 3 months - it was reciprocal, so they had to give me 3 months notice to quit, and I had to give them 3 months notice to quit. Due to the position "garden leave" was the most typical way to spend
