Glad to own a car that will only update via USB and even then only when I want it to. Which is never, unless something is broken. Having rolling releases for a CAR is absolutely stupid.

No. As enshittification encroaches onto Linux the user base is moving the other way. To their benefit, I might add. With ZFS on root in FreeBSD it's a no-brainer. Linux is feeling more and more like a bunch of random tools thrown toget

Do you think tech bros who voluntarily choose to live in the woods should pay the same subsidized price as a rural African schoolhouse? Equity and all that.

Boo hoo.... these same people were previously faced with $40,000 connection fees for Comcast and Verizon to trench a cable 1/2 mile to their property so $1500 seems like a pittance. Look, friends of mine did this, they bought a country

If you need a specialized amphibious vehicle to get to your shack in the woods, it's not anti-consumer if it costs you more than a Mitsubishi Mirage.

If you're privileged enough to work a six-figure tech job while engaging in a homesteader larp in a "cabin in the woods", you can probably afford the fee. So can "off-grid" YouTuber grifters. It's like everyone

Sounds like a lot but compare it to Edge also being patched for 428 Chromium CVEs this month. If 20 years ago you told me a single piece of software had 428 vulnerabilities I wouldn't have believed it. If Chromium has that many securit

Interesting choice of name for a website which contains no actual engineering.

Didn't the crustacean site temporarily lose its domain a minute ago because someone had to make an in-person payment to whatever Serbian mafia controls .rs? Vanity domains are beyond stupid and not worth the trouble.

Well your interpretation is both rude and wrong but I've learned to expect this level of hubris here.

How can we use a bucket of mostly useless data to enrich ourselves by building more VC-funded apps? I'm asking the important questions.

Cool. Still doesn't change the fact that this is an untested board design that relies on a difficult-to-source obsolete chip. If some pins are swapped by mistake e.g. power and ground you are screwed. Caveat emptor — unfortunately this

Maybe we ought to take away society's Spotify etc. and go back to trading cassettes. I predict it will last all of two days. You see the mentally ill chaos unfold within hours when DNS or a CDN goes down. Imagine taking their datacente

If someone purposely dug up emails you wrote 19 years ago, I'm sure they'd find some of your "dumber takes" as well. I'm not sure what the purpose of revisiting this is beyond provoking a flamewar on a slow Sunday.

If you suppose it's all malarkey and conjecture, what is the problem? When your doctor says that you're wrong, do you accept his advice or tell him he should be more like Dale Carnegie?

Funny that reactive arthritis has been around for decades but no one dares call it "long chlamydia" I guess it doesn't sell YouTube clicks as well.

I will never grow tired of highly paid so-called geniuses so deluded by their own hubris they think no one will not only not notice them moving GBs of data onto a USB on their last day of work, but assume they also don't have logs of e

Unless you need driver support only found in newer kernels. Then you are screwed. Do I want my hardware to work or do I want to be able to read my files?

Sure you can migrate pools. Yet everyone is (again) lost in the details and missing the big picture, which is Linux is doing its best to rat fuck OpenZFS at every opportunity, the last of which was the elimination of write_cache_pages in 6.

Not wanting to be left out, FreeBSD has it too.

I always assumed Chrome and Edge already did this — but sent the data to their respective masters. Isn't every Chrome download unique? It used to be even though the package contained an Authenticode signature, each installer stub downl

This sources PoE using a third-party daughter board which is mechanically way too big to package into any production access point. So no, that part of a reference design would never be used. > get your developers moving in your lab or do

by naturalmovement 2mo ago
A desktop computer does not source PoE power. Do you even understand what PoE is or how it works? It's a false statement and a pattern commonly found in LLM slop answers.

by naturalmovement 2mo ago
But you can already do that with existing hardware that is 4x capable at the same price point, and runs OpenWRT. A reference platform makes no sense for OpenWRT as by its nature it runs on dozens upon dozens of different hardware, all which
