Yeah I don’t understand why it isn’t, or maybe it is but getting anyone to do anything is impossible.

It mimics discord, so functional voice rooms with screen sharing, text channels, and so on…

You don’t technically need to back up the PBS server as there’s not much there other than a basic config. As far as the backup data itself, you can mirror to another PBS server or I think it supports S3 for offsite storage.

I’ve never heard of 3d printed guns being involved in crimes or even really heard of them much at all.

This is just another way to remove peoples rights.

Depends if the game set some expectation for a 10 hour long campaign or not I’d say.

Part of that is Linux doesn’t really have backwards compatibility as I understand it. When you update and some libraries get updated, the old versions are just… gone. So any application that relied on those will no longer function until it’s also updated.

You also generally can’t even install the old version of the libraries, because the name is the same across versions so having multiple versions installed isn’t possible.

Windows does have really good backwards compatibility, which carries over to proton since it’s mimicking windows APIs and libraries.

This is basically what Flatpak and AppImage solve isn’t it? They bundle everything needed to run the app along with it.

Out of all the problems with GTA VI so far physical media is pretty low on my list… I feel like the sky high price, subscription, in-game things potentially locked behind game versions, and so on is more worrying.

The immich public proxy app is built for this, you run it on your isolated public VLAN, and it displays a shared album to people while loading the images from immich.

Good, that’s how things are supposed to work!

If a politician is so out of the loop that they have no idea what their own voters want, they should not be in office. Nice to see that work for once since it feels like it rarely does.

The SFF or MT form factors are a lot better, I’d say MT is the best as it has full height PCIe slots. Keep in mind the dell/hp/lenovo models all use proprietary motherboard form factors and power supplies, but not that big of a deal I think since there are so many parts available if something does break.

I highly recommend 7th gen intel or newer, as you get the much better quicksync support and quality.

If you get a desktop class CPU (i5-7500 for example), the whole computer will typically draw around 15W at idle with an SSD, which is pretty decent.

If you need less idle power draw then you’ll want a mobile/notebook class CPU (like an i3-7100u) as the idle usage should be less than 5W. But those typically only come in the micro/mini form factors.

Also good to remember that every 3.5" HDD draws around 7W when idle and spun-up (typically difficult to spin down on servers since there’s always some process accessing files).

Yeah any extra fabs able to produce ‘last gen’ DDR4 would have a big impact.

Or the ‘modern workflow’ version of tell the AI you want to convert the PDF, so it burns a bunch of tokens installing pandoc and converting it for you!

Maybe run the public VPN at home with NAT enabled, and use it as the default gateway in the private VPN. Never done it but I think I’ve seen some guides on that concept.

If you build a PC with DDR4 RAM it does get cheaper, and I think under $1k is very doable.

Yeah and to be fair my main browser is Zen but I still have chrome and edge because I work on websites and need to make sure things work OK, they’re just not used for much else.

Basically everyone who’s not a techy person (unless their PC was set up by someone who is I suppose).

It’s so weird to me that people go nuts over Brave or Opera GX or whatever when Firefox and forks like Zen or LibreWolf are around and do their job so well.

Residential VPNs are available, plus home IPs change constantly on most providers.

Their best option is probably requiring a phone number verification to make an account.

What are they gonna do, close your accounts and make you sign up for 10 more? lol
