Musk claimed that Tesla’s solar roof would be competitive with conventional roofing tiles when factoring in the value of the electricity generated and said the roof could potentially cost less than traditional roofing materials, especially high-end options like slate or clay tiles.

Musk lies about everything and even tells us not to believe our eyes. Never forget he’s an actual Nazi:

Should be cross posted to Leopards Ate My Face.

It’s also a symbolic move for 2 Democrats to vote with the Republicans - even more so because it clearly announces to the world, “We’re with the pedophile party.”

I’m am shocked that the Democrats would have the spine to do even this.

I remember a librarian telling me they were slowly moving from microfiche to network storage, but I wouldn’t be at all surprised to find that there’s plenty of microfiche left collecting dust.

$83 subscription for online access to a free local paper is insane.

Check with your local library. They often maintain subscriptions or have an archive of local newpapers.

My old 8GB laptop runs amazingly well with an 8GB swap file and Zswap enabled. If you set up both with 16GB of RAM, your machine should be able to handle most anything easily.

Hiccups are involuntary muscle spasms. Applying heat can help stop muscle spasms no matter where they’re occuring. Drinking large gulps of very warm water (as warm as possible) has stopped hiccups for me 100% of the time.

I did this using a router to handle traffic for about a year between sites 240 miles apart. The only downside was it used a lot of bandwidth. Maybe it can be done with some IP cameras, but I expect they’d be expensive commercial models. OpenWRT compatible routers can be dirt cheap.

If your MIL’s router supports OpenWRT or you can replace it with one that does, you can use a VPN and PBR (Policy Based Routing) to your home router or server and do exactly what you want with any camera that supports RSTP (Real Time Streaming Protocol). That includes most cheap wired TP-Link cameras and plenty of others. PBR on the router at your MIL’s home would be used to route all traffic from camera IP addresses to your server.

I used Frigate software and Home Assistant for occupancy detection/alerts and Wireguard for transport. It worked perfectly but I eventually got around to adding 2nd server.

Conservatives are all about freedom until there’s profit involved.

There should be no compromising our right to privacy and these cameras need to go. Fuck Flock and their cash grab.

I use AI for the CLI stuff I down have memorized. Linux is still frustrating

I had the same experience when I switched and it’s funny how things change. Now I think people are forced to use Windows 11 in the ninth level of hell.

Thanks for that great write-up and link!

They were quite successful pushing me - directly to ebay. I’d rather spend more than to ever deal with AliExpress and their BS again.

And some, like the majority of SCOTUS judges will literally make stuff up so they can legislate from the bench as they’ve been paid bribed to do.

Not an exception. Minors cannot get married if they’re under 18 in any state unless they get their parent’s (or a court’s) written approval. A minor cannot enter into a marriage contract by themselves.

Yet another reason to avoid AliExpress, as if we need more.

Their website makes it damn near impossible to make a purchase (buy 3 more for this deal!!!), changes prices when you put something in the cart, charges multiple times for shipping and then provides inaccurate tracking info once something finally ships. Last time I had a month’s delay because everything sat for more than a week in the U.S. after clearing customs.

Never again.

I’m no expert, but my Business Law professors were absolutely adamant about the fact that a minor can never execute a legal agreement and there are no exceptions.

Even if the parent leaves a contract out with a stamped envelope and tells their kid to sign it and mail it off, the contract is null and void. If my professors were correct and things haven’t changed, I can’t imagine a child can waive their (or their parents) rights by clicking a checkbox either.

Just about every freeze I’ve had on Linux in more than a decade has been a GPU driver problem, even when it seems to be processor related.

You can also run it on your Linux box and check external IP via web page. Sites like https://myip.wtf/text provide it in plain text that can easily be used without accessing your router’s UI.
