Has something changed recently? Last time I looked at Servo it was just an engine, not a full browser. The servo project wants others to use their rendering engine to create browsers and use it as an alternative to Electron.

I can’t wait to get a rental car that doesn’t allow me to use my own maps.

ARM = Acorn Risc Machine

How do we murder it quickly

Ok, fair point about it being in Snow Crash. I can forgive it a little bit now. I still don’t love the name, and I think we should come up with something better for the eventual fediverse version of the same idea.

Let’s stop giving meta credit. Metaverse is a shit name anyway. Cyberspace is cooler and it’s still not that cool.

I had this issue at work, I was able to fix it by using the windows media creation tool instead of just writing the iso to the drive. Not sure why that worked, but it has every time so far.

A thin client for a NAS? That’s a hard no for me. Take the GPU out if you don’t need it, put a more efficient PSU and it will sip power as long as you aren’t running 27 virtual machines on it. I guess it’s more space than a thin client, but I have no idea how you are getting multiple HDDs or SSDs in a tc. USB is trash at long term data storage, and having a bunch of external drives and cables isn’t superior to a slightly bigger box. Not to mention anything that’s actually sold as a thin client probably won’t run ZFS very well if at all. If it’s not ZFS and it’s not hardware raid what the hell is the point of having network storage? Save the TC for a docker host or host a VM on your NAS that it can connect to instead.

TrueNAS. More control for slightly more work up front. Hardware will be easier to maintain. Lots of gamer desktops that won’t run Win11 available that probably have enough SATA ports to get the job done.

Have you ever scanned a book? It’s an arduous process and I don’t think most people would go through all the hassle. The files will also never look as clean as an ebook that was made from scratch. There are plenty of other readers and book stores that aren’t at this level of greed, and most libraries have some way to borrow ebooks these days.

I’ve been using Qobuz for a few years. I’m on android and the car app is fine, but not amazing. I haven’t had any drop outs but I choose CD quality on cell service and download a lot of my favorite albums.

They most likely use a third party like mimecast or the built-in encryption in outlook. I also haven’t had an issue between PGP and GPG but I’m not a heavy user.

Even blenders have safeguards though, if the pitcher isn’t installed most won’t work. I don’t think it’s insane to require some sort of safety with LLMs.

My problem is I just don’t really like wearing watches. I want to, I like watches and I like having the time on me without getting distracted by my phone. But I just can’t find a comfortable band, I don’t like tight shirt cuffs either.

I feel like withings cornered the market on hybrids. They are a little pricey but they are built very well.

$60 per month (if you sign a 1 year agreement) is sky high for software subscriptions. Sounds like Stockholm syndrome.

darktable.org Darktable is like Adobe Lightroom but open source, and I honestly think it’s better at this point.

I wish people would stop censuring themselves on lemmy like they do for the other social medias. You can say shit, and a lot worse now that you aren’t asking a corpo for permission to speak.

Word on the street is that MS couldn’t harvest the data they wanted out of Skype, even after turning off the encryption. So they let the Skype team keep on going because of reasons, while silently replacing them with teams.
