Very surprised that this is the only comment in this thread mentioning Nutanix.

I’m surprised I haven’t seen Nutanix mentioned at all here tbh. Direct competitor to VMware.

Cats can have a little coconut water, as a treat

It’s against CloudFlare ToS to use CF tunnels for media streaming like this. You can risk it ig but I have important stuff like domain registrations on CloudFlare so I’m personally not willing to risk getting banned.

Transferred all my domains from nanecheap to CloudFlare and I’m saving like 1/3 of price on renewals.

I switched from the default reader to koreader, and now I have dark mode (mine is probably about 8 years old and did not originally have this feature). Koreader has so many features and qol improvements compared to the default Kindle experience.

Yeah this is exactly me. Also a quick tip, if you’re on windows, there are some registry tweaks you can do to help prevent the GUI slowing down when lots of programs are open at once.

I built my PC recently and splurged to get about 100gb of ddr5, thinking it was going to be a waste of money.

I couldn’t have been more wrong, there are occasionally times when I’m almost running out of memory. How? Multiple desktops, each with tons of programs and stuff open, including probably like several hundred Firefox tabs open at the worst of times.

Basically, extra ram has allowed me to kinda postpone the responsibility of having the close programs, maintain cleanliness, etc. I still have to stay organised using desktops so I don’t go crazy with the number of things I have open, but I’m the limiting factor here, not my computer. And that’s a super liberating feeling.

TL;DR: you can NEVER have too much ram.

I wonder if there was some other reason for this removal, e.g. I could imagine some change in this generation that could have made the hotspot sensor redundant for some reason.

But yeah it’s far more likely to be for the reasons you outlined. Absolutely diabolical.

Oh I’ve been using Acronis for this purpose for a while, nice to know foss tools exist that accomplish the same thing, I’ll probably use this next time.

I do know one guy who went through with it simply because he thought that the thing that he invented was so cool that he couldn’t stop working on it.

What’s wrong with that? If it was commercially viable, then that’s a great reason to make a startup.

If Qualcomm released a FOSS RISC-V IP core that would’ve required spending multiple millions on hardware engineer salaries (no chance in hell), I would:

1. Spontaneously ejaculate
2. Pull out my FPGA

takes this opportunity to develop a high performance RISC V core

They might. This would never be open sourced though. Best case scenario is the boost they would provide to the ISA as a whole by having a company as big as Qualcomm backing it.

Great. Now I’ll have to buy this to justify overspending on 96gb of ddr5.

I wish owning a cat got me employment as an apple SWE :/

Wireless engineering concepts are simultaneously interesting while also making me want to take my own life.

It’s quite the dichotomy.

All the different ways we’ve managed to chop up EM waves to implement the incredible wireless technologies we use daily is fascinating. But the math… Dear lord…

Set my family up with Bitwarden. Had them think up good passwords, told them not to tell me, etc. etc. they went and promptly forgot it.

One of these days I’m going to set them up again but this time I’m going to have to save their master passwords on my account.

Could also be your sd card btw.

Yep, I go for it for almost every project I do, also because of the price. The amount of features you get for like 5 or 6 dollars is crazy.

Well tbf it’s just a microcontroller, it doesn’t run Linux
