  • Wired is a long-term goal for sure, I just can't afford multiple streaming services any longer and wanted to give the people on my plans an alternative before unsubscribing. Not sure if being on the same network will help, hurt, or not affect it, but at this point it will probably hurt if anything. I know DL and UL are in separate "buckets" as far as bandwidth goes, but I don't know enough about network structure to even reliably guess. It probably has to go through Plex anyways. My basic plan is implementing first and fixing problems as I find them, which is always the best plan right?

  • I think i just misunderstood how "DIY" Linux was and thought it came with essentially no drivers. I thought it was kind of like rooting an Android, you get more control in exchange for having to do everything yourself. I mistakenly lumped all drivers under "everything"

  • Ah okay. I just remember hearing that all your drivers need to be manually installed and updated in Linux, so for me that included ALL drivers, even basic ones like that. If I can get started wirelessly that would be perfect. Thanks!

  • Thanks for all the info. I have no comment since I need to watch like 3 youtube videos and spend another hour reading before I really understand that second paragraph, but I will definitely be referring back to it.

    What I did pick up was that the kernel actually comes with basic hardware drivers, which is a huge relief. I have pretty standard wifi hardware on standby, so I can try that.

  • This looks like a great resource, but I'm going to go ahead and do it the hard way. Maybe for a first install, just to get the ball rolling, but I typically go the long way around so I can understand what I just did some more. Like when I bought my 3d printer unassembled, so I could learn about it as I put it together. I'll bookmark the site though. If I'm currently biting off more than I can chew, I'll probably end up using it. Thanks!

  • This is exactly what I was asking. I would be interested in hearing why wifi isn't a good idea though. I didn't think bandwidth would be too much of a problem, so is this a security concern?

  • Haha while I agree with you on a lot of what you said, I was more restating your response than asking you personally. But I do enjoy the insight.

    I think empathy is the only way we can survive. Intelligence got us here, but it won't keep us here. If we want to survive, I think we need to use empathy to temper our ambitions. Otherwise, the people in charge will end up ruling over a smoking mountain of shit.

    Also, it was asked 6 (7?) days ago. Maybe your client has a delay of some kind? At least that's how it looks on my end. I'm using Boost if that means anything.

  • Oh they're unrelated, and it's a pointless conversion I know.

    Technically speaking these would be unrelated radians under the same name measuring different units. But you could still do it if you really wanted

  • I mean, you could just convert the Farenheit or Celsius degrees to radians like they were angle degrees. "Bake at 6.109 radians for 45 minutes" still can mean "Bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes" if you accept the implicit Farenheit scale. Radians would still be ambiguous regarding the base scale used, but it's as ambiguous as "degrees" is so not really an issue.

    So I mean, there's no real reason to do it but also no reason you can't.

  • Humanity cannot and will not change its practices fast enough to avoid running out of resources we keep ourselves dependent on because it's "profitable." We are a doomed species and won't be around for very much longer. We are likely living in the flash of bright before the long dark. I don't think the world my grandchildren live in will be remotely like the one we have now.

    I'm perfectly fine hedging my bets and living life normally, but I think our longevity is an uncomfortable truth most people don't want to face.

  • In my Steam backlog:

    • KOTOR II
    • Prince of Persia: Sands of Time
    • Star Wars: Shadow of the Empire
    • Deus Ex
    • System Shock 2
    • Devil May Cry Collection
    • Styx series
    • Resident Evil 1-4
    • Okami
    • Sphinx and the Cursed Mummy
    • Star Wars Pod Racer (just for kicks)

    None of them are super retro, but you can definitely tell when I was a kid. These are either games I enjoyed or games I wanted as a kid but never got.

    Also need to play through a few Gamecube games for the same reason. Viewtiful Joe is first on the list
