Good point about platform agnostic remote for management stuff. VNC is ideal for this.

And systems like Proxmox use a web GUI for most stuff, it's a touch slow but I think that's mostly just waiting for the system to finish the actual changes I make, and not the UI.

It uses some form of VNC (forget the name). Performance is fine for the VMs for non-video stuff.

You can run whatever you want inside a VM too.

You posted this just so you could make that comment.

I'll accept it. Have my upvote. Lol

Giant fucking egos and totally disconnected from reality.

Basically Hollyweird in a nutshell

Works for me, but damn it's dog snot slow. Like typing takes 1-2 seconds for each character to show up

They also had water wheels which could do work, like lifting.

Serious question, why not use current wifi for that kind of distance?

I know, it's probably not really easy to make the comparison at this point - power usage is definitely part of that equation. Though the lower bandwidth of this doesn't seem quite enough for video?

Edit: I misread the bandwidth as 347kbit, not Mbit. So yea, this looks very promising for video, especially given the limitations of Wifi, plus using less power.

Everyone one of my finds aged out from lack of OS updates, not because the hardware failed or was too slow.

I have a box of them.

Depends on the wife, really. 😁

With some Great Stuff! 🤣

(sorry, I've just seen so much bad usage of Great Stuff).

I've often found you don't even need the hammer aspect, just using a mason but will work, especially for softer materials. It'll take longer, but if it's only for the finish, it's faster than fixing a blowout like this.

Alternatively turn off the hammer for the finish, or finish the hole from this side (since you have the pilot hole). This works well on any material, for example to prevent blowouts on wood or flash on metal.

From their About page:

Project Liberty is stitching together an ecosystem of technologists, academics, policymakers and citizens committed to building a people-powered internet—where the data is ours to manage, the platforms are ours to govern, and the power is ours to reclaim.

I just heard Frank McCourt on a podcast plugging his book "Our Biggest Fight".

It was great to hear someone with a voice talking about the problems we see with user data and social media, especially the problem of the Social Graph (the map of all your social connections, which includes weights and values).

Their solution to this problem was to develop a social networking protocol that enables any compliant app to use (think how email works - a standard protocol, SMTP), but encrypted and user data controlled by the user. They call it DSNP - Decentralized Social Networking Protocol.

I see both sides of their approach, I'm kind of ambivalent, lots of concern here long-term.

They've already acquired MeWe and have converted some users to this protocol. He wants to buy the US side of TikTok (if it becomes available) and convert it to DSNP, which would encrypt about 30 million US accounts.

I'm always cynical about stuff that sounds promising, but I don't have the tech background to really dissect what they're doing. Anyone understand this better?

I have no idea where to even start to combat such things. Healthcare professionals must appease the masses of their peers.

I've seen this first hand in the corporate world, where it's called a 360 review. It's a popularity contest.

While there's value in the idea of such reviews, they're ripe for abuse. It codifies an environment of dishonesty - where people who are good at masking (err, sociopaths anyone) excel.
