It often amazes me how incompetent some leadership can be.

I had LibreBooking running for a bit as a solution to an unrelated problem (scheduling a piece of equipment), but it may also fit your use case.

It seems many didn’t even read the quoted part of the article. The $3 million payment is to one person. Yes, it’s pennies to the giant companies, but this could open the door to thousands of similar lawsuits, quickly turning that cost into not just pennies.

I really like Quantic Dream’s games. A little bit of action sprinkled in to a narrative-driven walking sim where your choices can impact the game really gets you emotionally connected. Their use of facial mocap really takes the immersion to the next level too.

I highly recommend all of Heavy Rain, Beyond: Two Souls, and Detroit: Become Human if that’s the sort of games you enjoy.

Those second and third backups can really come in handy if something on the host blows up.

I’ve got my main PBS backups on an internal array on the host, secondary backups to an external HDD plugged into the host, then a third separate node (ThinkCentre mini-pc) backing up to a pair of HDDs I trade out monthly for an offsite copy.

I think it’s important to consider not backing up media, etc that you can relatively easily re-obtain. Makes the storage requirements for redundant backups a fair bit more palatable.

I feel like the tap pay would be what I miss most, but I saw someone suggest just getting a case that can hold your payment card, and it’s essentially the same thing.

Yeah I unsmarted my TV and just threw Mint on an old laptop. FreeTube works great on there.

Or perhaps ban prediction markets altogether? The existence of them can preclude events, and is especially dangerous when such markets are in any way violent.

Don’t underestimate the determination of a kid who is time rich and cash poor.

Yes, social media is detrimental for adolescent development, but it’s also pretty terrible for everyone else as well. Blocking access to a portion of the population is only a band aid, and is likely to grow into a terribly insecure implementation of age verification just waiting to be compromised.

Regulate the predatory nature of the platforms, not the users.

I quite like my Razr. I’m sure if they’re aiming to be a true alternative to the mainstream OSs, they’ll be including many of the mainstream features

Ooo I’m sure this is likely for future models, but I was actually pondering getting a cheap pixel to try out graphene and see what it’d be like compared to my Razr. Maybe I’ll have to wait a bit to see how this develops.

It’s called anti-circumvention law and is typically forced into trade agreements by America to allow corporations to enforce IP protection in foreign countries.

Cory Doctorow’s recent talk on it was very informative and he notes how eliminating those laws can be a way for countries to eed dependance on US tech.

It’s very unlikely there will be any meaningful form of tech regulation in the US without significant societal change.

There’s an Ollama integration that adds it as a conversation agent.

I prefer Tubular for Android. It’s a NewPipe fork to implement SponsorBlock and ReturnYoutubeDislike

Yeah, not really the best place to go to be invisible. However, who knows if that’s actually where he’ll go.

Did you log out?

Fixing a Nvidia driver mismatch that was causing the newest kernel module to not build properly (that might not be the right terminology) and not boot was on my list, as discovered after a node reboot that wouldn’t start.

It was fairly straightforward, though finding a way to fully remove some of the old DKMS stuff took a bit of digging (manually delete a couple files). The new driver installs went smoothly and the improved GPU passthrough in PVE 9 made the passthrough config tasks pretty quick.

I also got go2rtc set up and piped my cameras through that instead of having individual connections for things like Home Assistant and Blue Iris NVR. I’m still struggling to get the motion notifications in Home Assistant to work though. Followed a tutorial on (that other site) and got the MQTT message coming in just fine, but the node-red flow isn’t working…an issue with entities, so still some tinkering left to do there.

The whole 3rd (1980-1993) and especially the 4th (1994-2004) gen Mustangs were pretty mediocre looking.
