  • Remember, no snares or entanglement devices

  • Am I the only one who didn't want another background service so I just wired a local Feedpushr instance to direct entries to my existing Gotify instance?

    I mean, it works fine until some asshole puts HTML that their parser can't understand in the content section but then you just need to read between the tags...

  • I had a professor that did that exclusively to piss people off. It worked.

  • Probably not, most of those sensors work by shining an LED light through the skin and monitoring reflection/scatter as a cheap form of photoplethysmography. Anything capable of absorbing that light, like the pigment used in tattoos, will prevent it from working correctly (at least out of the box, there may be some way to adjust for it but I do not think it would be very accurate).

    An infrared sensor could work, depending on the ink type. Unfortunately those are more expensive.

  • I kind of get it. Note apps are normally horribly cumbersome data serialization ecosystems you have to invest a lot of time into before you really feel like its doing anything more than a standard text editor could

  • This is where someone tracks down an upgrade path chart you didn't know existed and points out some goofy intermediary release, not an lts for some reason, that you were supposed to upgrade to first...

  • FOAM3R can be used to produce multi-functional foam structures for a wide range of applications, including aircraft cabins, in-car air filters ...

    Auto shops hate this one simple trick

  • I need a better programming specific search engine. DuckDuckGo seems like it's gotten worse at code/project searches and will now just assume you misspelled some common word.

  • Who could have possibly seen that coming? It's almost like anything other than server side anticheat is conceptually broken! (See the monitors with ML map assist and the past 20 years of client exploits). And that's ignoring the currently strong financial incentives of breaking these things...

  • Yep, from kernel/ksysfs.c

     c
        
    /*
     * Make /sys/kernel/notes give the raw contents of our kernel .notes section.
     */
    
      
  • There's a bunch of other data being printed aside from the usual printable characters. Run it through strings if you want something human readable.

    As to what that extra data is... I actually don't know off hand. Let's see if the mailing list has any info...

  • sched-ext is the proof of concept. It has a demo video if you follow the link to the mailing list in the article showing it improving performance in games that are normally CPU bottlenecked when the CPU is given a heavy background task.

    It's scheduler improvements though, so it's not really a measurable improvement (or at least not easily measurable) to performance as a whole but it can result is a more responsive system under load.

  • significant economic harm to our company

    Oh! I have a solution! Make it a local API you fucking goofs.

  • If I recall correctly, the whole suite was sold to a company that has a history of acquiring existing tools just to park them in maintenance mode and fill them with ads.

  • Shadow wizard exploit gang, we love popping shells

  • 1080p 60 is fine, but if I have to go back to the dongle life for ethernet I at least want the extra battery life oled would give me as a consolation prize. Good to hear you're happy with it though

  • Looking at laptops right now, that thing would be the obvious choice for me if it had either an oled display or ethernet on top of that battery...

  • To be fair, Intel was ahead of TSMC in manufacturing processes size for a while there but they were measuring it differently from them. Hence the whole process size rebranding that unfortunately looked really shady without context. Now as far as throughput and yield... that's going to take some work. Not sure what their yield has been as of late but I'm not convinced it's nearly as competitive.

  • Heads up, you can also get postgress to use a socket and mount that through for another speedup if you haven't already
