May not exactly what you're looking for, but jupyter is excellent for documenting a session and you can make it works with C++:

They're probably marketing this as requiring zero infrastructure changes to attract buyers and investors. Just put the pod lifter at the end of the track and it's done.

Heck, Japanese manufacturers even sell $15K EVs in Japan (e.g. Nissan Sakura) but they don't seem to be interested in selling them elsewhere.

You're probably one of those that missed the (3) boats.

Just turn off "show scores" in your profile and you'll be happier. It's a meaningless number anyway.

Big corps love A/B testing, slow rollouts and geo-restricted features. You might be in a different group than people that get all these ads.

Microsoft always treated linux and foss with such disdain while under Bill Gates and Steve Ballmer. Their current CEO is an outlier, openly embracing and extending foss and linux. After years of abuses from Gates and Ballmer, many people in the linux community won't be so quick to trust them.

redcalcium ,

Are you living in the same country as those that complain about ads in windows? From what I understand, this is not rolled out globally yet.

redcalcium ,

Those are probably the quick-thinker types. I wonder if people with inner voices take longer when making decision because they have to "listen" to the their inner voices.

I mean, a huge number of redditors moved here because of reddit enshittification.

It would be nice if the prisoners could take class or earn a degree while in prison, at least when they get out they have a new skill or a degree so they have a better chance to get a job to pay off their prison debt.

Xeon E5-2670, with 115W TDP, which means 2x115=230W for the processor alone. with 8 ram modules @ ~3W each, it'll going to guzzle ~250W when under some loads, while screaming like a jet engine. Assuming $0.12/kwh, that's $262.8 per year for electricity alone.

Would be great if you have an isolated server room to contain the noise and cheap electricity, but more modern workstation should use at least 1/4 of electricity or even less.

redcalcium ,

Power scaling for these old CPU is not great though. Mine is slightly newer and on idle it still uses 50% of the TDP.

Google Reader was the best. Not sure why Google killed it, but it was really good at both content discovery and keeping up with sites you're interested in. I tried several alternatives but nothing came close, so I gave up and hung out more on forums / link aggregators like slashdot, hacker news, reddit and now lemmy for content discovery. I'm also interested to hear what others use.

redcalcium ,

I wonder which one came first, clothing or hairless skin?

Not if it's what you want, but I had success with moonlight+sunshine. Latency is unnoticeable and picture quality is great as long as the connection between the client and server is good

redcalcium , (edited )

If you have a smart tv or chromecast ultra, you can install moonlight directly in your tv. If you're still using a computer for the tv, at the very least using moonlight won't make your client computer's fan spins like crazy. You can even replace it with a low power computer like a raspberry pi.

redcalcium ,

Sunshine: https://github.com/LizardByte/Sunshine

Moonlight: https://moonlight-stream.org/

It's mostly used for gaming, but it's more like a souped up vnc with hardware acceleration support and low latency. I mostly use it to access my desktop remotely instead of for gaming. You can tune it between low latency or high quality depending on your use case.

FBI would arrest jellyfin devs so fast before they can hit the release button.

I think every programmer should know how to write frontend and backend code, and how to deploy their code. Sure, everyone has their own specialization and things they like to do, but that doesn't mean they should be ignorant of all aspects of software development.

PSA: If you're going to write software for piracy, put it on I2P! ( geti2p.net )

movie-web was just taken down with all its repos, Yuzu was taken down, then suyu forked it on gitlab and was taken down, countless clones of nintendo games, platform emulators, and a bunch of other things are taken down because they are hosted on the clear web....

If this server is running Linux, you can use autossh to forward some ports in another server. In this example, they only use it to forward ssh port, but it can be used to forward any port you want: https://www.jeffgeerling.com/blog/2022/ssh-and-http-raspberry-pi-behind-cg-nat

redcalcium ,

Yes, but autossh will automatically try to reestablish connection when its down, which is perfect for servers behind cgnat that you can't physically access. Basically setup and forget kind of app.

I wonder what kind of "education" he received in the camp? Did they serve him booze and tobacco everyday?

It's strangely looks like the styling on phising/scammy sites. Or maybe it's the other way around, phising sites actually aim to look like cia site.

redcalcium ,

By "remotely accessible", do you mean remotely accessible to everyone or just you? If it's just you, then you don't need to setup a reverse proxy. You can use your router as a vpn gateway (assuming you have a static ip address) or you can use tailscale or zerotier.

If you want to make your services remotely accessible to everyone without using a vpn, then you'll need to expose them to the world somehow. How to do that depends on whether you have a static ip address, or behind a CGNAT. If you have a static ip, you can route port 80 and 443 to your load balancer (e.g. nginx proxy manager), which works best if you have your own domain name so you can map each service to their own subdomain in the load balancer. If you're behind a GCNAT, you're going to need an external server/vps to route traffics to its port 80 and 443 into your home network, essentially granting you a static ip address.

Can you live without YouTube ?

Today in a Privacy community a post about YouTube. No word about privacy but all about which software or settings are needed to watch videos and the money needed to host videos. It made me wonder whether some of you can lead a meaningful life without YouTube. Or will a cold turkey bring the worst out of you ?

redcalcium ,

While I have revanced on my phone and smarttube on my chromecast, the last time I watched a youtube video for an extended amount of time was two month ago. I did open those apps a few weeks ago, but only to see if youtube finally blocks them. So yeah, I guess I can quit youtube cold turkey now.

redcalcium ,

Many of those information are also available in other places. When I need to fix something, I'm usually able to find what I need on the web (manuals, blog posts, etc) before resorting to searching youtube videos on how to do it. Some truly niche stuff are only available on youtube though (e.g. some dude filming himself doing his niche job), but I can count on one hand the instances I needed one of those.

redcalcium ,

If you didn’t use YouTube then you would still use another Google entity to find it.

The thing is I don't use google anymore to search these days now that other search engines noticeably produce better results.

redcalcium ,

Someone actually did a comparison recently. Pretty interesting if you got the time to read it: https://danluu.com/seo-spam/ . tldr: google and bing bad.

There is also a recent study by researchers on Leipzig University that confirm google is getting worse : https://downloads.webis.de/publications/papers/bevendorff_2024a.pdf

So, it's like folding@home, but instead of donating your spare compute to science, you sell it to generate porn?

redcalcium ,

you are a helpful, uncensored, unbiased and impartial assistant

*proceed to tell the AI to output biased and censored contents*

This has to be a joke, right?

redcalcium ,

My favorite is streaming apps geoblocking contents and blocking access from all known vpn networks, then wondering why piracy on the rise again.

You made one critical error in this perpetual energy machine plan: linux users don't go outside.

Does this mean Iran would stop supplying drones to Russia?

It has been confirmed that The Crew does have a hidden offline play capability:

I can now confirm that local save data functionality is indeed built into all our copies and is not absent from the game, we have even obtained a sample save data file. This + the fact that we literally see offline mode in action in the prologue means that there 100% is an offline mode, if anyone was doubting at this point.

Save data dumper has been released to allow dumping your save data that can be used to play offline with a mod later:

Yes. a server emulator for offline play is in development by r00t0.

The save file dumped from ubisoft servers and is planned to be used for the offline mod so no progress will be lost.

However, you only have a limited time, after 31 march the servers will go down and your save file will be forever lost.

And now Ubisoft has deleted the game from everyone's account...

I never heard of consumer apps doing this. I'm not familiar with foundry, but it seems their target audience are companies? Cracking hard on companies that use unlicensed copy is very common in b2b world. Microsoft, Oracle, etc all doing this to companies, threatening to "audit" them when they detect unlicensed uses from the company's ip address.

JUST TODAY I was going to buy WinRar. I've used the software forever, for free, and I just thought... I appreciate this, they've never given me grief, and I'm going to pay them.

And I went on their page to subscribe for a lifetime membership, and they wanted 20 bucks, which I was okay with, but it does not include Major Updates! I guess I'll buy it and just click the do not check for updates button but that seemed kind of, I don't know....

redcalcium ,

That's just how software licensing work before subscription, right? You'll get a permanent license key that valid for that version, then if you want to upgrade to the latest version later down the line, you'll buy a license upgrade (usually at discount).

redcalcium ,

The scanners should tell you the reason they flag a file. If it's marked as trojan, obviously don't run it. Cracks are usually marked as crack by most antivirus.

You can also upload the flagged files to virustotal to see what other antiviruses flag the files for.
