  • Bambu Lab Controversy Deepens: Firmware Update Sparks Backlash

    Jump

  • Genuine question, are there any "just hit print" open source printers on the market yet? I don't have the time for maintaining a printer on it's own, which is why I've enjoyed my A1 mini so much (it just works), but I'm of the same opinion as you and would love a viable open-source alternative.

  • 'We're done with Teams': German state hits uninstall on Microsoft

    Jump

  • Unless you get comfortable using linux, that's not happening. Microsoft groups so much into the O365 E5 tier that it's legitimately impossible to get a similar business level feature set for even double the price, mainly because win11 & office (word, excel, etc) make up 85% of that license cost on their own. So in order to have the business momentum required to make a software pivot you're going to need cost saving elsewhere to force it to make sense, and Microsoft has cornered the "I'm not a techy, just make it work like my computer at my last job" crowd that will never switch an OS because of their familiarity with Windows.

  • The hidden cost of self-hosting

    Jump

  • I hate having to run my own backups. That's been a massively hidden cost behind self hosting that I did not originally account for. Anything sufficiently robust is expensive and anything cheap is unreliable (at least at the scales of data I have, 4k+ RAW videos and photos are massive).

  • UI is eating more into my content with each redesign

    Jump

  • I'm not saying I like this trend or design, but I feel we're all lacking a few hundred TBs of the apple analytics data that would be required to make an informed decision on this design choice for their user base.

  • Just wanted to show off the lowest end hardware I ever ran Linux on

  • Is this one of those old obscenely small obscenely underpowered net books?

  • Your pi is idling at 4w? That seems quite high. Does it have a nvme drive attached or something?

  • UPS systems are generally configured for 90 minutes of operation, depending on the criticality of the system they're connected to. The best ones are programable and will actually send graceful shutdown signals (when configured to do so) to your server cluster to prevent data loss that occurs during system blackouts. You can emulate this behavior on your laptop with a script that checks battery% every 10-15 minutes, sending a shutdown signal if it falls below a treshhold you set.

  • You're mistaken. Laptop cells do not behave in this way or use LiPo chemistries. They're Lion chems and behave entirely different.

  • Some won't boot without a detectable battery cell. Depends entirely on the laptop in question what the best course of action is. Most newer bios handle charge profiles automatically and will prevent ac related damage but it's all dependant on how they were designed/made.

  • Laptops run on "burst" computing profiles in a lot of engineering situations, occasionally this applies to both the thermal design (runaway heatsoak if used at full tilt) but also battery design. I've seen several machines that will dip into their battery in addition to the charger to boost performance and dump wattage into the chips beyond what would be available from the adapter alone. I don't necessarily think it's good design, but modern battery chems don't really give a shit about up/down momentary charge cycles. Also the Chem they're using is not LiPo based as that chemistry while allowing for significant amperage to be drawn, is not stable enough for a laptop that is generally expected not to ignite.

  • Jeff Geerling: Self-hosting your own media considered harmful (updated). Youtube removed his content, saying that self hosting content is "dangerous or harmful content"

  • Hey kid.... You wanna self host an api call? 😈

  • What are the benefits of a server having multiple public IP addresses?

    Jump

  • You can run a service on the same port with less processing overhead than a reverse proxy. Additionally it provides you some benefit in domain separation. For $25 I'd pick up one or two, couldn't hurt to have in the pocket and there are only so many of them afterall.

  • Severance’s Seth Milchick was originally envisioned as a minor character, but Tramell Tillman’s performance changed everything

  • I feel you're completely missing the artistry of the cinematography in pursuit of some realistic/based "grounded" plot. It's a show. It's going to jump some sharks. Crowds enjoy jumping over sharks. I'm sure they had a great idea of the destination they wanted to arrive at, but they're taking the scenic route (because it's a show) instead of the direct path and I honestly wouldn't love it the same had they not.

  • Let us not forget that there is not a single employer on the planet who would willingly hire and pay someone more for their time than that person's time is worth. Each employee of a company is making that company money. They deserve comfort because they are the company.

  • 😂 fair enough. I've been /mostly/ enjoying the 1-connector for everything revolution myself. It is kind of annoying that I have to specifically search for cable brands that print what parts of the usb c standard they support on them though.

    One connector to rule them all,

    A maze of specs to blind them,

    The consortium that forged them all,

    in tangled cords will bind them.
