Glad to see I am not the only one keeping our grandma's traditions alive.

Yeah, I have also seen those ones. Why 3:2 instead of the more common 16:10 is a mystery to me.

Don't feel bad. I also live in Japan, and in my experience most homes (mine included) still use gas boilers and kerosene heaters. Not to mention that houses are built to be as cheap as possible, so insulation is almost non-existent and

Not every country is like the US. My country has a public healthcare system; I never needed private insurance and never had to pay for a visit to the doctor.

If I remember correctly, the procedure was to prepare a food sample, put it in a temperature-controlled environment for 24 hours, and next day see if something grew there or not. If it did, the food was contaminated. You could try shortenin

Sorry, I forgot to mention that you can find them in 16", but I would like at least 24" to use it as my main monitor.

This was also a public health system (Spain), but I guess it might depend on the country. Now that you mentions labs, he spent the last 10 years of his career (maybe more, I don't remember clearly) working at a food analysis lab and th

Talking about unusual monitor aspect ratios, what I would really want is a 3840x2400 monitor. 1920x1200 is somewhat common and easy to find, but 2400p is only available on a few laptops. Why 2400p? Because it is the LCM of 400, 480 and 600,

My dad is a retired nurse. Most of his work was giving shots, treating wounds, extracting blood, putting IV catheters, etc. In other words, physical tasks. How is an "AI agent" or LLM going to take care of that?

According to my Japanese GF, the elders don't understand it either. She had to setup some banking services for her dad and it was a painful mess, but doing it in person is equally annoying. So at this point it is a fucking mystery who

At work I manage a network with two DHCP servers. One is a dnsmasq that assigns the IP address, hostname, and basic network parameters to all network devices, and the other is a LTSP server ( https://ltsp.org/ ) that provides

Honest question, but what is the benefit of Bink over standard codecs like H.264/265 or AV1? Specially nowadays that every GPU provides hardware-accelerated video decoding...

As a guy living in Japan who gets to hear those chimes every day, I loved the website, thank you for the link :)

Yeah, and it can also mean Intellectual Property. But "Ethernet/IP" is not just "two letters", is a trademarked brand.

I don't remember how it happened, but I have seen faulty Ethernet devices suffering a power surge that burned the switch port they were connected to, so be careful.

FYI, EtherNet/IP is an industrial control protocol, not TCP/IP over Ethernet. Yes, that is the real name of the protocol, a more confusing name could not have been chosen... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ether

Gigabit Ethernet sends and receive over the 4 pairs simultaneously using echo cancellation, so it doesn't need crossover cables.

Gigabit Ethernet doesn't need to detect anything because it sends and receive over the 4 pairs simultaneously using echo cancellation.

The funny thing is that Fujitsu has a sizable enterprise IT business, and their Primergy servers are very good, so why don't they offer their own ARM CPUs?

Did you see any toxic Rust fan in this whole post? Because I didn't see any, but I saw several comments like yours.

Fujitsu is developing new ARM based CPUs called Monaka, but their focus seems to be HPC and AI, no mention of "normal" servers

But it is true, you see way more comments complaining about "the toxic Rust community" than said toxic community itself. At some point it just becomes annoying and tiring...
