States would need to create an emergency bureaucracy redundant to each other state. California or Texas could do it but good luck South Dakota.

Hold on there pal that time zone is ambiguous. Did you mean 11:40:20 UTC? If so, don’t forget your Z!

Europe: 10/12/2025 USA: 12/10/2025 If you don’t have context as to which system this is, would 2025/12/10 make things less ambiguous?

If you go to the mirrors page you’ll see cdimage.debian.org under Sweden and it’s an http link. My guess is that the link is just misconfigured on the home page. It’s helpful to avoid https for things like this because it allows you to download updates on machines with outdated security software, eg TLS 1.0/1.1.

OP is in favor of racial segregation. Wtf.

At the very end of the article they mention declining grape yields due to unseasonably warm weather. I guess we need to drink champagne while it still exists.

Honestly that makes more sense than Gulf of America because at least it is a bit more descriptive. Looking forward to Mexico renaming Gulf of California next.

I’m going off my experience running an 18 hour livestream over HDMI with my 2015 Nikon dslr.

The limit is only true if you’re also recording to internal memory. My understanding is that it’s a European Union issue that we all have to suffer for.

Reading this reminded me that my ears are ringing. I can ignore it but if anything draws attention it can get pretty bad.

I read somewhere that the best places to eat are Yelp 2 star places where the reviewer whines about service. It suggests the reviewer wanted to give a 1 star review because they were mad but had to concede that the food was good, hence 2 stars.

It should be encrypted by default because most people don’t take care to dispose of their machines responsibly. I picked up a few machines destined for ewaste and the hard drives were full of tax returns.

I needed to make a docker image based on Core OS (RedHat) and the docker host had to be RHEL compatible. My machine is Ubuntu. To get it to work, I installed Rocky Linux on LXC and docker inside that machine. Turns out there are a lot of security settings isolating LXC and restricting nested virtualization, but fortunately Canonical posts a 20 minute video explaining how to modify the permissions for that use case. I cannot imagine virtualizing much further without the machine refusing to comply!

Did you actually get that to run or is this a fun thought exercise? It seems like a lot of nested virtualization. If you’re clever enough maybe you could get Windows > WSL > WSL Wayland compatibility layer > Ubuntu Wayland session > LXC > Fedora > QEMU > macOS > Wine > Windows app

Sonos ought to be licensing their protocol as a standard for multiroom audio to compete with airplay. Seems obvious to license it to Denon, Yamaha, etc. I’m using Yamaha MusicCast but if I were buying today I’d standardize on either Airplay 2 or Spotify Connect instead. IMO Sonos is a dead man walking.

That’s why you create a backup deadman’s switch.

You wanted to ruin your company? Why?

Likewise there’s a reason all the billionaires are building bunkers in Hawaii and New Zealand and investing in yachts, that Greenland and northern Canada have new geopolitical and economic importance, and that the Panama Canal is at risk of not being able to get enough traffic across. I’m tired of getting gaslit by climate naysayers.

If you need to reinstall your OS you don’t have to mess with the home drive. I use Linux for work and some of my clients actually require all data to be stored on a separate disk or partition from the applications. It also makes your backup strategy simpler and is transparent to you as a user.

2TB is too much space for an OS disk, especially since you’re not going to dual boot, so might as well get a bigger data directory and speed.

My workstation is a PCIE Gen 4 Threadripper. I’ve got a multifunction card with a couple 2TB Gen 3 NVMe drives that I striped and the bandwidth is identical to a single Gen4 4TB NVMe. Obviously you’d need a backup strategy to handle the case of a drive failing but that is true no matter what.
