Would you mind sharing the part of your nix config you use to set up Sunshine? I'm having a rough time getting it to work well with my AppleTV.

This isn't an all or nothing approach. People can exercise the options they have without being a puritanical crazy about it. This isn't a strong argument. You can protest about how society is structured while still taking part it

Sure you can. This is kind of like not voting and lots of people live their life like that. However, if people use their ability to shape and influence the world by voting with your ballot as well as their wallet I think that is equally val

In a society with a progressive tax system these things are overwhelmingly paid for by people who have vastly more money than they need to survive. Taxation when done correctly is a good thing.

This is exactly the same experience I've had. I recently re-installed the app to use marketplace after moving to the US. My feed is mostly AI generated half naked women and AI generated conservative rage bait. It is so obvious that it&

It's wild to me how many people in the comments see any form of government doing anything as shady. It is doubly wild to me that using public funds to create art is seen as a bad thing.

I want to like this so bad, but the free tier changes still haunt me. I ran a little hobby project for a while on it that helped junior developers find jobs. The work needed to switch from PlanetScale ultimately meant I just canned the proj

Ruby is really let down by the tooling around the language. The language itself would be so much more fun to write if the lsp would reliably jump to the definition of functions etc that seem to appear out of no where. It has been the bigges

Even HEPA isn’t a requirement, you just need a high CADR. Doesn’t matter if the filter doesn’t catch a particle on the first pass as long as it does one a subsequent one and the flow rate is high!

I wonder how this will work for visa waiver programs like the ESTA. I have family visiting next year and if they have to pay an extra $1k, it won’t happen.

I moved from Ireland to the US and noticed the same. So many people in the US treat others as if they are NPCs. Rules only exist so that they can’t bother you, but the rules don’t apply to you. It is extremely frustrating!

I would love to wear more shirts, but I’m not a fan of wearing cloths that contain a significant amount of plastic. Cotton shirts are a pita, but I’ll try these tips, thanks!

Am I misunderstanding or is this using non-actualised gains to buy actual things? What are the tax implications of this?

The angle of attack at both takeoff and touch down is pretty wild!

I usually get to around day 10 in AoC before they get so time consuming that I give up. I still really enjoy the first week or so though!

In the UK a lot of roundabouts have traffic signals for this purpose that only turn on during busy times.

I live in the US now, but originally from Ireland. My least favourite part of US road infrastructure is the 4 way stop. They are just not good compared to a roundabout. Half the time the only way you can tell it’s an all way stop is by look

If you had a lifetime subscription of around $250, I’d buy it instantly.
