No its built in and across all the apps.
Thats my preference as well (top 6/12). Thats for all though, subscribed I go new. But its pretty niche communities and not a huge amount of activity.
Then they'd have to update the actual game, as opposed to just updating the launcher when a change needs to be made.
Updating the launcher is quicker and cheaper.
You're being incredibly generous if you think he understands any of it.
What makes it worth doing isn't about the results, IMO, but about maintaining a secure election. A risk review - especially by hand - will not only provide an audit that verifies if an issue exists, but will also allow action to be taken to prevent issues in the future should there be any shenanigans.
So if all the ballots were fake, yes, it would be really important to know how. That's several orders of magnitude larger than any voter fraud I'm aware of.
Oh absolutely.
The cybertruck is a safety hazard and then some.
NATO doesn't.
Some of its members do. These are not the same things.
It was an accurate spelling for pronunciation at least!
No, it doesn't, though I understand why you would think that. I didn't note what you'd do with laminate without a frame, it highlighted what you would do which is remove the entire window if its damaged.
With a laminated window, like a windshield, you want it as much in one piece as possible. Given that its a laminated window, what you'd want to do is remove the whole assembly - and in this case its a single pane - I'd want to remove the whole thing in one piece, not smash it to pieces.
If the windshield is damaged, what you'd be doing is removing as much of it together as possible, not swinging an axe at it to drive pieces in. So instead I would punch it at the corners and pull it out using a halligan to pry it.
If there is no time, and given that its laminated, I'd skip the window entirely and just use the spreaders on the door. Can't say I've used them on a cybertruck obviously, but I can guarantee they have the power to pop that door off.
If the door gap isn't enough to get the spreaders in for a bite, I'd drive a halligan in first, pry it open, an shove the spreaders in.
Obviously this is all my opinion, but I stand by mine that driving an axe at a window like that would be really stupid to do.
but not individual workers.
And this is where it crossed the line here. Targeting individuals... Is not going to work out for you in court.
I have no idea.
Not only because a punch is a smarter glass break, but also because an axe at a car with someone in it is a FUCKING STUPID IDEA.
Spent years as a volunteer firefighter, near a major highway so ive done... A lot of extrications.
- If the windshield is still there, we remove the whole thing. Its laminated, a punch is just going to make a hole. So we'd remove the whole damn windshield to keep glass away from victims.
- if its a side window, that's getting broken - not to get in, but to keep the glass clear of the victims while we force the door open with big ass spreaders or the combi (I always preferred the combo - pinch cut then spread was much faster).
If you notice, the consistent thing there is not smashing a window toward the damn victim in the car.
Side note, I highly recommend a seat belt cutter, an automatic punch, and a light be in every car for emergencies. The holidays are coming, make them a stocking stuffer. They even have those combo ones that are ridiculous looking, but have all three features, and they fit in a glove box.
Also, please be safe when driving during the holidays. The day before thanksgiving was almost as bad as new years eve, so please, be careful. And if you are going out get a DD or an uber/lyft/whatever.
Its never fun getting dead kids out of a car. Its much less fun when you know they were in town to visit their parents.
/rant-ish.
Edit: Fixing autocorrect.
I believe both were about inflation (caused by Trump/Covid but they dont understand that) and immigratation (thinking illegal immigrants are taking their work - they aren't, companies who pay illegal immigrants drastically lower rates do by under bidding projects).
In short, ignorance.
Steamfitters, steel, and police unions endorsed trump. Mostly police. Steelworkers and steamfitters were the local, not the entire org.
Thats one option, part of strategies for reuse of liquid cooling.
To mention, its more energy efficient than air cooling, so there is a benefit. Smart companies though will also look to reuse strategies like using it for building heat. Larger companies will partner with the town/city to distribute the heat into town-wide systems, like for power generation or distributed heating systems, warm greenhouses, or even to dry out wood pellets for pellet stove systems.
Going long is effectively the same as using radiators though, you'll just need more pipe to do it without a radiator.
Making it a stupid design, yes.
Edit: putting your massive heat generating data center (beyond what most DCs will do) in support of AI in Texas is stupid.
Closed loop systems absolutely have other options in design, which ive mentioned in another comment chain.
As terrible as they are as companies, meta, apple, and others have made much more appropriate decisions - like locating their big load DCs in cold climates, partnering with the locale to make use of the heat being generated, removing the need for power to be used to perform those tasks - making them not only efficient designs, but compared to putting a DC in Texas like a dipshit (or LA, or NV, or anywhere else with a hot climate), makes the whole thing better for the environment.
Yes, its a stupid design.
KDE.
I won't use gnome (I've mentioned elsewhere), and unsurprisingly I just dont like it either. The design choices are restrictive, the environment is oversimplified - its just not for me.
Ive used lots of DEs over the years, even fvwm95 (the original, its neat that some folks have updated it though), and at this point if its a desktop its getting KDE.
Off lease lenovo/HP/dell tiny/mini/micro. Keep the NAS for the storage, use the tiny/mini/micro as the media server. Anything with a 6th gen Intel and up will be decent on transcoding (use the igpu), 8th gen and up is better.
Personally I'd put proxmox on it, and run each service as an LXC, or for the little ones, one LXC for docker and throw the docker containers on there.
I have 7 tiny/mini/micros. 3 dell micro, 3 lenovo tiny, 1 HP mini (used to have 2 but one got replaced by a dell).
Powerhouses with low power draw. Highly recommended.
If you do build, I'd say an Intel arc GPU. The rest is just buying stuff that works well with Linux, which is most everything in terms of the basics.
Buy a commercial display, thats what I do.
Windows 11 from Windows 10 is not installing "a damn patch".
Also Windows 11 is terrible. Along with Edge WebView2, the entirety of the O365 suite now (see Edge WebView2), etc.
An upgrade would be wiping the machine to install Linux or buying a Mac.
It doesn't. I doubt it will in the future, but its possible.
I still would recommend moving to another solution though.
Keyboard / Mouse Sharing with Arch / Wayland, MacOS, Windows 11 Laptop
TL;DR: Want to use my desktop keyboard/mouse with my Laptop. What software are you using/enjoying? Arch+KDE w/ Wayland will be the main host, main client is Windows 11. Secondary hosts may be Debian and MacOS, same client, but low priority on the Mac.
Hey folks, I'm rearranging some things a bit at home, would love to get some current thoughts on keyboard/mouse sharing over IP (no video).
I have to put up with some tools that don't play nicely with wine/proton, and so my work laptop is a windows device. I'll be controlling that device primary from Arch and Debian, though MacOS is a possibility. I'd like to keep the laptop closed and not add another mouse/keyboard into the mix, so Keyb/Mouse over IP it is.
Here's what I'm looking at, haven't tried them all yet, but looking for opinions:
- Barrier - Dead fork. Hasn't been updated in some time, being superseded by input-leap. Most portions of the project managed by someone who had not been active for a couple years before the Input Leap fork.
- Input Leap - Forked from Barrier at the end of 2021, and nearly 3 years later, no stable binary releases yet. Development seems fairly active, but no binary releases yet doesn't provide a massive amount of confidence that it will be stable. Doesn't mean I won't build and test though.
- Lan Mouse - Seems pretty neat, the lack of input capture on MacOS could create an issue for me in certain situations, but I can work around that if I need to for the rare times I'd need it. Traffic is unencrypted/plaintext. Its entirely local, and I've got more security than most users (and some companies), but still. Probably leading the pack right now.
- Deskflow - Upstream project for Synergy, a rename to differentiate the user project from Synergy. TONS of recent activity, but the switch is very recent. I don't know if there are any binaries built, but its a longstanding project (and like many, many others, I used Synergy before it went commercial, it was nice).
Any other options out there? Good/bad experiences with any of these?
3-7yr Kids Book Recommendations?
TL;DR: Got any of them "banned" book recommendations for kids? We have a 2 1/2yr old and a 6 yr old who love book time
---
So a recent popular post in politics was about a book that stirred up controversy - My Shadow is Purple, which is the second book in a series (Here's the first).
Local library doesn't have them unfortunately, so I'll be putting in a request (then checking out a local store).
It made me wonder about some other great books out there that more conservative areas might not have. My township is pretty progressive (, but not large, so the school library is only OK. The county library is literally a few blocks away, so no town library. And while amazing as a library, the in-county magas have made the library slow down on some kinds of books. Its ridiculous, but one problem at a time.
So I'm hoping to get some kids books they might not otherwise see, like the My Shadow is Pink/Purple books mentioned, but I don't know what's out there.
Anyone have some favorites to share for the young kids? Looking forward to any ideas!
Touchscreens, Debian, and Having Fun - Ideas?
I got my hands on a Lenovo ThinkSmart Hub 500 - you may have seen these in conference rooms, its a small Teams Room or Zoom Room device, based off their Tiny lineup, with a built-in touch display thats about 11" in diagonal.
https://psref.lenovo.com/syspool/Sys/PDF/ThinkSmart/ThinkSmart_Hub_500/ThinkSmart_Hub_500_Spec.pdf
I left the 128gb nvme in there for now, and threw Debian 12 on it. Touch worked throughout the installation process, all I did was attach a keyboard, power, and network (along with the thumb drive with netinstall), now installed with KDE.
Considering the specs, the only part I'm surprised works well is the touchscreen, its otherwise just a generic lenovo tiny (which I have several of already, 6th-9th gen, as part of my tiny/mini/micro server stack). I could have chosen a different flavor, but I'm a long, long, loooonngggg time Debain user so its my go-to.
In terms of touch, tap, drag, and long press are all working. Video looks good with the UI set at 125% scaling, and to be candid its rather snappy and responsive.
I did this 100% for my own personal entertainment, so now for some thoughts for the community - what would be fun to use it for? A few of my thoughts....
- I could use it as a HomeAssistant kiosk. Neat, but.... overkill compared to the tablets doing the same job.
- Make it an emulation station, attach my steam controller and maybe my usb adapters for N64/GC/Sega/PS/etc.
- Use it to test a series of distributions to see how well they handle touch drivers for this silly thing (EndeavorOS is probably going to happen, I may be a long time Debian guy but I should spend more regular time in other things, and not just my arch VMs).
- I don't know, gcompris for my kids? They already have it though on an android tablet and an old mac mini (like, 2011ish) hooked up to the TV in the living room.
- Make it another proxmox endpoint for the cluster, install a DE anyway, and then let it be an always-visible display for grafana?
- Install OBS, let the hdmi capture have some purpose?
What about you folks, what would you find fun to do with this box?
eBook Library Structure
TL;DR: How do you sort your books for your book server?
---
I'm thinking of reworking my eBook/comic/etc library, and I'm curious how other people structure things.
I don't want to separate fiction out by genre or anything since some can fit multiple genres, so I'm leaning towards Dewey decimal system categories personally.
I'm also planning a bit ahead since my daughter is now starting to read more than sight words books, so I'm thinking of separating kids fiction and adult fiction.
I also currently have a section for comics, manga, and LNs. Those are separated mostly for who goes to what, and what they do/don't want to read. So my library right now (plus the kids section) will look like:
- Kids Fiction
- Adult Fiction
- Comics
- Manga
- Light/Web Novels
- Non-Fiction
Simple for navigation, and searchable, but maybe not the best for browsing. So I was thinking maybe the Dewey categories:
- Computer Science, Knowledge, and Systems
- Philosophy & Psychology
- Social Sciences
- Language
- Science
- Technology
- Arts
- Adult Fiction
- Kids Fiction
- History/Geography
Nicely browsable, but some of those sections will be really light on books.
What method of sorting do you use? Any librarians out there with thoughts on better approaches than the Dewey decimal system?
EDIT: I really like what @thayer@lemmy.ca mentioned, which I've currently adapted to:
- Instructional (How-to, manuals, gardening, etc)
- Tech (Electronics reference materials, programming reference books, etc).
- Equine (all my wife's horse stuff)
- Kids Fiction
- Kids Non-Fiction (I've got some geography books and such my daughter likes, I'm sure it will expand over time)
- Adult Fiction
- Adult Non-Fiction
- Comics
- Manga
- LN/WN
I can easily allow the kids accounts to have access to the Kids section, not include the comics/manga/tech my wife has no interest in, etc.
