It’s wild to me after building my own printers for 15+ years that people complain about Enders. Compared to my DIY printers, getting an Ender was like taking a holiday.

Did anyone think Microslop didn’t have recovery keys?

kexec reboot support

Does that mean bootless kernel updates?

If so, between that and declarative configuration, it sounds way better than I envisioned the product was going to be.

Wow, that’s a pricey toothbrush in the inductive charge 2.0 version. I was reading up that the 1.0 has charging issues because they put the contacts where they get wet. I like that the brushes aren’t some plastic.

I’ve been looking for a sonic because the rotary one I have feels like it’s rattling my teeth out.

Except they’re not all that affordable for the features. Not many that are POE, and their MP/optizoom compared to cameras half their price isn’t great. I can get Amcrest or Vikylin for less, and have everything that Reolink doesn’t out of the box. You also have to be careful with them that you don’t get Reolink NVR-locked cameras.

I’ve heard Reolink touted a lot and so far I’m not seeing the advantage.

unlikely to enshitify.

That might be some wishful thinking. I tried getting some Reolink cameras a neighbor decided to buy on his own, to work with Blue Iris the other day, there was no way to configure them without installing their shitty app. All they have to do is just like every other not-shitty camera, enable DHCP, RTSP and ONVIF by default and then fuck off. But that’s not happening.

I told him to send them back, I wasn’t going to deal with them.

That should go just fine.

We don’t much take kindly to logic in these here parts, stranger.

“Yeah, I don’t like Black people, they’re stupid.”

• says very smart fellow filmed uttering death threats in his uniform working at his probationary job

I can taste the bland just looking at that.

• hire a Canadian driver

Of course not. This is all a face-saving canard. He’ll be back to threatening nuclear war again in a couple weeks.

That other 35% has been facebooked into believing everything the orange shithead says is true.

Just read that sentence back to yourself.

If Trump gets his wish and co-ops the Fed, they might as well start dumping USD. It’s going to be on a wild ride after that.

I do OK with faster-whisper for transcribing, and I built a wyoming container for pocket-tts that does pretty good local TTS but I am running it as a docker on a ryzen machine (no gpu) so YMMV. Pocket-TTS seems better than Piper IMO, it’s certainly faster for local TTS if all you’re using is CPU.

I’ve been looking for a MCU that has enough oomph to do some noise cancellation onboard and I ordered up a couple of these in the hopes that the onboard NPU would be useful for that. It also has a speaker output and onboard mic. Price was right for 8GB of EMMC and 256MB of ram.

When Kubuntu craters again (and it will), try the Fedora KDE spin if you want to stick with a KDE desktop.

I’ve never had anything but trouble with Kubuntu and I’ve tried it several times over the last decade. Maybe they’ve got it stabilized, but I wouldn’t bet on it.
