This has been my issue as well - screens waking or not waking up. On latest Linux Mint and everything is great except when switching back and forth inputs between my personal and work laptop (running Windows), I have to do it twice going to

They also tend to have higher fees and a smaller return than managing it yourself with index funds and bonds. But for people that don't want to do that it is a good option none the less.

Actually at a previous company we had to use a service that did exactly this because we had to send money to various businesses and they didn't all have ACH/etc setup. So we had to use a relatively archaic service and API to send

There are savings account setups that do offer separate accounts for various buckets that do something like this - it may not be daily, but monthly or bi-weekly. I use smartyPig for this and it really is helpful. More helpful than just budg

In the last couple of weeks we posted a job for a junior .NET dev and got over 800 resumes within days. The automation is killing both the employer having to sift through it all and the employee possibly getting lost in the mix.

I do wonder how much affect it has. At least in the US most insurance companies won't cover them (unless you already have diabetes, for example) and at over $1,000 a month I can't see how the people who could really benefit from t

These are FAANG monies. The rest of the US normals (which is the vast majority) don't have these stock options and thus that kind of money.

Notepad++ ...There are alternatives, but none that save the current session (including unsaved files). The best option was to run it through Wine, but that seems overkill for a notepad style app. And thats my beef every time I switch to Lin

Let's see my BE language progression went from... Apple Logo->Commodore BASIC->Fortran->Pascal->PHP->Java->VB6->.NET...and other modern things. ...With scripts of various types mixed in there. But BASIC is what got

I'm so old phreaking was the only way for me to communicate with people outside my area through BBSs on my C64.

Unless you simply want to play with all the various bits of hardware, a standard PC tower will be more power efficient and save a lot of room. I use that with unRaid and a simple router and switch and it's power efficient, doesn't

So much this. I used to love playing games as a kid, but now I watch game demos now and all it looks like to me is work. Someone/thing telling me to go do this and that. Keep track of all my work so I can be assigned more of it. I migh

It doesn't mention (or I missed it), but I wonder what the idle power usage is on these. I know with Nvidia cards you can run nvidia-persistenced to keep it in a lower power state on idle, not sure what to do with AMD cards (if anythin

Linked from the reddit post, this article (though US specific) has much more data that uses median vs average and breaks down by region.. https://listwithclever.com/research/home-price-v-income-hist...

There were great shows then and great shows now. The problem now is the good ones get lost in the sea of a million streaming services dishing out whatever they can to justify their cost, so it may just seem like it used to be better.

I was in Costa Rica taking an aerial tramway which was about 75 ft up over dirt/rocky hill and my Pixel 6a (with just a basic back case) fell out of my pocket, hit the metal floor and fell out the doorway. The very kind tour people act

I built a similar thing and found it to add qualifications quite often, especially when you had it write a cover letter. It was still helpful though, just like with every use case you need to check what ChatGPT is telling you.

Good call out - this does require a dummy plug as well.

I actually just ordered a GPU for my unRaid NAS server just to be able to do Steam Headless via a nice docker image(1) and then use Moonlight (for example) as a client on my Windows laptop. If it works, it's much better than buying yet

Yes, you can try it as a Premium member. I didn't try it on any 3-hour long videos, but for a couple of shorter ones it worked well enough to give a tl;dr;.

So it's browser extension only? I can't use the android app to login with a passkey I stored from my desktop browser? Hopefully they'll add that support soon enough, because password access on my mobile is a big pain point.

It is amazing, for the base concept of the Internet being a decentralized network to survive outages, how much centralization has occurred. I use a separate registrar (porkbun in my case), with that thought in mind.

Based on some of these, it seems 'AI' still just can't figure out fingers.

While I agree with getting out there and getting the heart rate up to provide both physical and mental health benefits I'm way too leery of repeated high impact activities on 'delicate' joints like my knees. I'd much rat

I have been on the hunt for the past year in the mid-atlantic area of the US looking for <4% beers. The closest I've come is a German grapefruit beer (Schöfferhofer), but it doesn't really have that beer taste. Most US 'li

Postman was the way to go when it first came out. But then they started throwing everything into it so it became the most convoluted and horrible ux I could imagine. I also switched to Insomnia, and it's like going back in time to the
