I’d like to get a 3D printer but I live in a 1br apartment so I don’t have a great place to put it. I might be able to make space in the living room or bedroom but I’m a little leery of health concerns (seems like a bad idea to have something that’s melting plastic right where I’m sleeping or eating, is rather have it in a garage or basement or something)

One issue I can see with the points system is that people could just approve it with a “Looks good to me!” without even looking at the code. Or just looking at a small portion of the code.

What is /dev/pty23? From context, I assume another users terminal so it just spams garbage to their screen?

If you want to read and want more Expanse, you could read the books. I’m about half way through the last book now and they’re pretty good. Each season of the show was a book, but the last 3 books didn’t get into the show so there’s some new content there.

It should be like music. You can sign up for basically any service (Spotify, YouTube Music, Apple Music, etc) and generally hear any song. It would be ridiculous if each record label or whatever had its own streaming service, so why are TV & movies different?

Something I don’t understand, was there not some kind of wheelchair on the plane for the flight? What if he needed to go to the bathroom? What if there was an emergency and they needed to evacuate?

But that doesn’t do anything to mitigate using the same password/phrase on multiple services.

Occasionally I’ll go to a subreddit on mobile browser and half the time I can’t view it due to mature content. If I really care then I’ll go to old.reddit but often I’ll just back out.

Where does that link go to?

Any idea what that first program was?

I find them super useful when screen sharing in a meeting because you can just share the secondary display and all your other crap (and notifications!) can stay on the main display.

There’s even some things you can do with a self-hosted media server that you just can’t easily do with sreaaming services. For example, Jellyfin has a group sync feature where multiple users can join a group and when someone plays something, it plays for everyone. It works great for watching shows with friends remotely. I think Amazon Prime video has something like this but none of the others IIRC.

One of these days I’ll actually look up how YAML indentation works. Every time I use it it’s trial and error until I stop getting errors.

It doesn’t have to be that expensive if you keep it modest though. I have an old Dell Optiplex (I think from 2012?) that I run a fair amount of stuff on. Things like Jellyfin (with Sonarr/Radarr/etc), a finance tracking web app, Home Assistant, a wiki, and some other miscellaneous stuff. I don’t have a ton of storage though. Currently just the 512gb SSD that the OS is on. I have a couple 8TB HDDs that I want to get setup but they’re a little loud for being in my bedroom.

The big thing I notice is that it can really struggle to encode media if it’s not in the right format. It doesn’t have much of a GPU though so that doesn’t help. And more modern hardware would be much better too, but this is fine for my needs at the moment.

These CAPTCHAs do more than just check if you clicked the right pictures. They analyze your mouse movements and stuff. For example, a bot would move the mouse in perfectly straight lines, click all the pictures quickly, etc. But a human would have more natural movements.

I hear people say “program in assembler” but IMO that’s wrong. I’d say you write the code in “assembly language” (or better yet, the actual architecture you’re using like “x86 assembly”) but you “assemble” it with an “assembler”. Kind of like how you could write a program in the “C language” and “compile” it with a “compiler”
