Yeah but…I mean…wow. I graduated HS class of 2003 and I can’t remember anyone handing in a hand-written paper in any of the 4 years.

How do people be around this stuff for half their life and not know basic things like Ctrl+C Ctrl+V.

Today’s 40 year olds graduated in the high school class of 2002…there are people from that era that can’t copy/paste? For real?

I take it you don’t have kids.

Taking 10 or 15 minutes to “shit” is a much needed break. Especially when there’s another parent home (or the kids are old enough) and you can shut the door.

Then there’s the old “boss makes a dollar I make a dime” adage…

They’ve had some flops…Wii U, DSi, Virtualboy…but they ain’t no game.com. Way more hits than misses in the console realm.

You taking stock advice from Justin Timberlake or somethin’?

I’d been meaning to try out atomic distros. I’m not an expert on Linux by any means but I’ve been using it on-and-off for about 25 years, and exclusively (at home, at least) for about 7. So I’m a bit more than a noob.

I do worry if I’d feel restricted inside of an atomic distro. Might throw kininite on a laptop I’ve been meaning to give to my kid, tho.

They had to know this would happen, right?

Like, they didn’t think to test with a dual booting system? Wtf?

Where do they even get off fixing a bug in grub?

Yeah I’d check for fragmentation, particularly coming from whatever was on the opposite end of this tunnel. This looks like librespeed (which is super simple to run in a container, ‘adolfintel/speedtest‘, if interested…I run some at work and it’s very useful) so I’m assuming it was running on the server at the other end of the wireguard tunnel?

That latency and jitter are also absurd tho. Op should run a bufferbloat test on both sides. Though I don’t always trust those results from librespeed.

Pet peeve #209: implying DFW has a bigger furry scene than Austin. For some reason I doubt that.

This is bad practice.

More accurately it should look something like this:

# Load sys library for exiting with status code
import sys

def sayHelloWorld(outPhrase: str="Hello World"):
    # Main function, print a phrase and return NoneType
    print(outPhrase)
    return None

if __name__=="__main__":
    # Provide output and exit cleanly when run from shell
    sayHelloWorld()
    sys.exit(0)
else:
    # Exit with rc!=0 when not run from shell
    sys.exit(1)

Does DisplayPort also support audio?

Yes, DisplayPort supports multi-channel audio and many advanced audio features. DisplayPort to HDMI adapters also include the ability to support HDMI audio.

• Take picture with digital camera.
• Store as jpg
• Convert jpeg to base64 string
• Compress the string in a .zip split into 2.5KB chunks
• Encode the .zips as a base64 strings
• Render a QR code for each string.
• Print out all QR codes on a sheet
• Store in family photo album.

Most of that could be like 10 lines of python…

Thank you, subscribed to most, they seem right up my alley.

I was apprehensive about the first two because they sound (from their titles) like the type of conservative conspiracy theory my FIL talks about. He was talking to my BIL (FIL’s stepdaughters husband) about the collapse, and where to go yesterday. He decided Mexico since “they’re only doing all that shit in the industrialized countries” , and I couldn’t help but silently laugh that a.) he thinks Mexico isn’t an industrialized country, and b.) he would illegally immigrate there to avoid politicized chaos.

Oh man I used to love watching QI. Forgot all about that show (I’m in the colonies. The one that tossed out all that tea).

Fine. I finally installed f-droid, because while I don’t listen to a lot of podcasts, I am trying to listen to more, and YT Music is ass for finding new podcasts.

Please give me recommendations for more podcasts that may like based on what I got

There’s proctored private resale of IPv4.

A lot of orgs (mine included) are sitting on large chunks of IPs they don’t need (we have a /16 and several /24s) because they adopted early, got an ASN and prefix assigned by ARIN, and their addressing scheme is now so disjointed and scattered that they can’t sell off anything bigger than a /22, and that makes setting up BGP a pain. Juice ain’t worth the squeeze.

That’s just one loopback address.

I could list 2^24 IPv4 loopback addresses.

Because SecOps still thinks NAT is security, and NetOps is decidedly against carrying around that stupid tradition.

I somewhat disagree.

WYSIWYG document editors are terrible at getting things exactly as you want.

If you’re a perfectionist, especially in presentation, it’s probably easier to adopt TeX than it is to get (Open)Office to do exactly what you want into.
