Just to supplement your point with an anecdote: my first "proper" Jellyfin host was a retired Optiplex 3020. I added a 128GB SSD through one of those silly CD drive bay adapters and threw in a Quadro P400 that I bought off of eBay

Their articles seem to load fine in my reader (Fluent) if I fetch them as they're published. Beyond that though, if I try to fetch the full content or open the article in my browser, I hit the paywall. It seems like either their paywal

2019-23. It's worth noting that GroupMe sticking around was honestly probably a byproduct of my own circles and the specific campus culture to a certain extent.

When I finished my undergrad a few years ago, we were relying heavily on GroupMe chats, with the occasional Slack and one or two LinkedIn groups mixed in. Discord was just starting to exit the gaming sphere and hit the mainstream though. I&

Great. As if Learn articles weren't already a mess to begin with. A few weeks ago, I needed some syntax information to help with building out a PowerShell script. The input and output parameter sections each included "{{ Fill in t

Adding onto that, the last quarter or so of the article is spent quoting William Rampe of the Institute for Energy Research. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Institute_for_Energy_Research > IER is often described as a

Wouldn't that imply that >80% of all monitored telnet sessions were exploit attempts for the specific CVE in question? Even with the scale of modern botnets, that seems unrealistic for a single vuln that was undisclosed at the time.

In no particular order: 404 Media, Ars Technica, BleepingComputer, The Register, The Verge, and Tomshardware. These usually sit in the corner of my screen through the day. Some are better than others for work purposes. The Verge could proba

Seconding this. I have one for my work desk, where (surprisingly enough) it made a lot of sense. The DPI isn't as big of an issue as people make it out to be if your workflow doesn't depend on high density, but the curvature defin

Just a nitpick: analog NTSC was roughly 480 i at (just under) 30 FPS. The latter is significant, as 3:2 pulldown (as would have been necessary if the station's cameras were scanning at 24 FPS) would have introduced judder and made t

Just a guess, but Google Maps has (had?) an integration with Spotify that adds basic playback controls below the map view during navigation. It's meant to keep you from needing to switch apps while driving.

IMO, poor website UX plays a big part in this too. People are far less likely to Google "[city] public works" if "public works" is a top-level menu item on the city website. When you first need to click a hamburger menu,

You are correct. This is a consideration at all levels of government currently, with faith in those grants' persistence varying based on an individual recipient's responsibilities.

Absolutely, and that's a risk that we carry, especially in the public sector. That being said though, I don't know if adopting a better-regulated domain is itself enough to alleviate that. The very unfortunate reality is that many

Just my $0.02 as a net/sysadmin for a small municipality in the US: A big part of why we haven't been able/bothered to migrate to a proper .gov domain boils down to the amount of technical debt we'd need to pay back in t

While I have the chance here, I want to say thanks to you and your team for the amazing work that you all are doing. I doubt you need further validation, but believe me when I say that the ideas you're describing do work. My entire car

Would you be willing to elaborate on what you've seen a bit? I'm on the last semester of my CS degree now and have definitely seen a lot of similar effects as a result of Zoom courses and general isolation during COVID lockdowns.

This is doubled by the fact that lots of boaters will try to keep their phone as far from the water as possible for safety's sake. In practice, using your phone is better than using nothing at all, but a dedicated waterproof device tha

If my memory serves, every boat I've ever been on has had one. In my experience though, it rarely gets used, especially if the individual driving is also fishing. The article states that Scheller was trolling at the time, so he likely

Slightly unrelated, but I had no idea that Techmoan had a second channel. I wonder if he'll use it more in the future.

For a high-quality brew, you absolutely want to buy whole beans and grind them immediately before use. However, you definitely can buy pre-ground beans in the states or grind them in-store if the market offers a grinder. Though, I think the

This is very similar to my upcoming senior design project! We're making a learning tool that will allow you to write up tabs, play them back with production audio, and then play along with them. Once the play-along is complete, we&#x27

As a college senior myself, I think it's a bit of both. I think a lot of students buy iPads for the social appeal, and there's definitely something to be said about the impression that having a well-organized digital device gives

From a sales-only perspective, this article makes sense, but the very obvious influence of TikTok seems noticeably absent from the analysis. TikTok, by nature of its scale, has completely changed how the music industry works. If you want to
