My favorite is how 15th St just boings off of Colfax (15th ave)

Is it, though? 8 years is 8 years.

I might say it’s complicated because all the other presidents finished their presidencies. Trump has three more years, In theory.

I often work in several excels at once, I almost cry every time I have to undo something in a worksheet I haven’t made changes to in a while

1. This is thread is 6 months old, and

2. My point is that you can’t just tell someone who experiences the world differently, which is pretty much a hallmark of autism, to experience the world as someone else would. It takes a lot of understanding of other people to learn this skill in the first place, and if your kid is lacking this skill, saying “jeez kid, do this thing you’re not doing” isn’t going to magically remedy the situation.

Blocky artifacts are the result of poor bitrates. In streaming services it’s due to over compressing the stream, which is why you see it when part of a scene is still or during dark scenes. It’s due to the service cheaping out and sending UHD video at 720p bitrates.

You’re talking about a boycott. A strike is people refusing to work

I’ve done that click and drag many times. Nothing worse than accidentally dragging a folder designated with pseudo random numbers into another pseudo random numbered folder, and not knowing if you actually dragged it into a folder, or missed and did nothing

The only town I saw in that area in my 5 second search is Jordan, with a population of 357 356.

Edit: corrected population, my bad

This seems to only be true in conservative States.

I try keep my data drives and boot drives separate on my servers, I make sure I can rebuild the server relatively easily so no matter what happens I can get back up and running. In my research on LVMs I wasn’t seeing anything saying you could just move the drives to a new setup, that you had to export and import first. In the case of a suddenly dead boot drive, I wouldn’t be able to do that. I did see some steps for backing up an LVMs metadata and recovering from that, so I might be sure I do that at some point, but another user said that modern distros should be able to scan for LVMs without issue, which is not what I found in my quick test in my setup. So I’ll be checking that out in a more modern setup to double check.

From what I was reading, recovering from corrupted metadata is not something I want to do. I’d rather not use LVM if that’s what’s required if I can’t just move the drives to a new server, as nice as it would be to resize filesystems on a whim.

I did not find just moving the drives to work. There were some other issues that I came across that might have a part to play in it, I made the lvm and filesystem on an RPI5 running OMV and moved it to a rock3c running OMV from an armbian install. Turns out there’s a pagefile size mismatch between the two that prevented mounting the btrfs filesystem. But I still wasn’t able to get the rock3c to recognize the VG or that there were new PVs attached without exporting first. So perhaps the armbian install isn’t modern enough to automatically recognize it.

I didn’t expect learning new things about btrfs to be the outcome of this little experiment, but I guess that’s just how things work.

That’s kind of what I figured, my biggest concern at this point would be how difficult it is to move the lvm volume to a different device. It seems pretty straightforward if you have a working setup, but from what I’m seeing in my research is silence if your device (server, etc.) dies and you need to move those volumes to another. I’m finding guides on either recovering from corruption or lost metadata, or transferring from one working device to another. Nothing I can find about importing a fully functional lvm to a new device if it hasn’t been exported.

I’ll be able to do that later today, so I guess I’ll see what happens if I do. Better to try it out now when it isn’t critical.

I try to keep lossless on my server for the fact that new algorithms come out all the time. I don’t want to be stuck with a 160k mp3 when a better algorithm comes out or if I need to stream just a little lower than that. I’d rather have lossless quality that can be converted at any time to whatever I need, even though I mostly have it set to 160k for listening if I’m streaming away from home. My work internet and cell service can get really terrible, and being able to buffer 10 songs when I get a few minutes of service is a godsend while not getting stuck with low quality, several times converted files, or keeping multiple bitrate versions of the same song.

I think if you’re going to quote something you need to make an effort to make sure it’s correct. It’s OK to make a mistake, but we’re in a time where everything is being used to weaponize your emotions and manufacture outrage. It’d be more than a full time job to tell people to correct their quotes, I don’t think an explanation is necessary.

Kind of, but not really. There are specific requirements in order to charge, not hard to meet on grid, but can be difficult in a homemade setup

Privacy is not anonymity. In this case they were required to supply IP addresses of users logging into a certain account in an active investigation.

As usual, the devil is in the details—ProtonMail’s original policy simply said that the service does not keep IP logs “by default.” However, as a Swiss company itself, ProtonMail was obliged to comply with a Swiss court’s injunction demanding that it begin logging IP address and browser fingerprint information for a particular ProtonMail account.

J-k would get me. J-h puts my hands too close and I’ll notice. There’s enough space to the right that I’ll happily be super confused when I start tu[]omg ;ole tjos

Framework was and is certainly high on my list, but I’d rather go in a used direction and I do have concerns about them sponsoring hyprland and omarchy, and I haven’t seen anything about them backing down on their statements.

If I were to categorize what I consider most important as far as upgradability goes, it would be the following:

1. Storage - Drives fail, full stop. It needs to be replaceable. Storage can also be a backup to ram, so if that isn’t replaceable something needs to be. My experience with a 32gb nonreplaceable storage laptop has soured my entirely on non-replaceable storage.

2. Ram - Ram can fail and as technology proceeds, ram tends to be the most expendable resource as technology progresses. So as time goes on, what you started with just won’t cut it in the future. I don’t see this changing anytime soon, so it either needs to be upgradable or way overboard in capacity and to a lesser degree speed.

3. Secondary components (wifi, bluetooth, etc.) - I honestly don’t mind replacing these components with a usb dongle, but it sure would be nice to replace the internal components and leave USB ports free.

4. Graphics - I’m not a laptop gamer, I don’t see it as the place for it. While there are some processes that would benefit from a better GPU, I feel like mobile CPUs cover that aspect very well.

5. CPU/motherboard - A replaceable cpu is a rarity to find in a laptop, and processing power/watt doesn’t seem to have a huge difference within generations which is probably my most important factor in a laptop. Sockets change so often and chipsets aren’t often compatible with newer chips that I don’t much see the point if the motherboard isn’t replaceable. It would be cool to have a replaceable motherboard, but considering how fine I am with older technology, I think even those would still be outdated by the time I start considering that anyway.

I think it was 24-40, not 18. Soo yeah.
