12·13 days agoI don’t want president Gavin Newsom either, but I don’t see how anyone could possibly think “A reality TV businessman billionaire who’s BLUE on the TV charts is what this country needs right now”

[No patch notes were read, zero idea what that update will do]
If the only race track you consider is “personal desktop computer usage” then sure.

Tech, the bleeding edge of computer science is really just applied math.
4·3 months agoSynology, with QNAP as a close #2. There are other decent options, but they aren’t quite as polished so they may require more “actual computer knowledge” to troubleshoot from time to time.
I don’t think this is a rating, but a diagram showing how tall the socks of the users of each distro are
I used windows XP today because the phase noise analyzer at work runs on it.
We’re not allowed to connect it to the network, though.

The plot is an inverse of population density: rural areas have more exposure to cows, cities do not.

People see headlines and the comment section of the social media platform where that headline was posted.
The easiest offsite backup would be any cloud platform. Downside is that you aren’t gonna own your own data like if you deployed your own system.
Next option is an external SSD that you leave at your work desk and take home once a week or so to update.
The most robust solution would be to find a friend or relative willing to let you set up a server in their house. Might need to cover part of their electric bill if your machine is hungry.
A coworker was telling me all about how “once you own a truck, you realize all the things you can do with a truck that you couldn’t before”
And like, he’s not wrong but all the things he listed were my non-urgent to-do list that I keep written down and when it has 3-4 items I rent a truck from Uhaul for the day. I spend about $20 while they’re spending thousands on their monthly payment, not to mention gas.
Ask an LLM to write code for you. Paste it into your IDE, try to run it. Describe the problems to your IDE and ask how to fix them. Lather rinse repeat.
Per that last bit, I’m guessing they never had a lawyer present. Would make any of those fabricated statements null and void, if the constitution meant anything.
A relative of mine just had a baby, and her mom came from out-of country to meet her grandchild and help mom and dad in those first crazy weeks with a newborn.
But when she told CBP that she was “coming to help her daughter with the new baby” she got detailed and questioned for 2 hours. Eventually they let her through but they were really trying to pin her coming to work illegally on a tourism visa.
If you or a loved one are in a similar situation, just say you’re “visiting family”. Apparently it’s a legal gray area in this shithole to help your child take care of a newborn.
Every election in the US is all-or-nothing.
“Arch isn’t a difficult distro! All you need to do is run pacman -Syu now and then! Even my grandma could handle it!”
(Which is true until something goes wrong and now you’re way more on the hook to un-fuck the system than just about anything that could ever go wrong on a Debian or Fedora based distro)
