  • I love big phones though. Smaller ones feel too claustrophobic to me

    Also, from a usabity point of view, bigger screens are better for watching videos in landscape, editing text and it's easier to use the gestures and the keyboard (I don't even have fat fingers). I think only downside is ring and pinky fingers hurting after a while because of the weight

  • I mean if you are a pretentious asshole worried about stinky users stealing your precious content...

  • Don't get me wrong, I like this but why am I feeling like this would be a consistency nightmare for GTK and QT apps

  • ChatGPT keeps mixing up software versions which is understandable considering the similarities between versions and the way gen AI works

    I asked for help on GTK 4 once and responses were a mix of GTK 4 and 3 code. Some of them even contained function names which didn't exist in any version of GTK

  • God dammit Jeb. I told you we needed moar boosters

  • My 8 year old lovebird died a few days ago.

    His name was sherbet but the nicknames include: chicken, rodent, animal, (the) bird, birdhead, mango, weirdo... And because of that, now everything reminds me of her

    I held his body in my hand cried for hours. We went to gradma's yard with my brother to burry him, I broke down crying while digging so my little brother finished it for me.

    Our home is just too silent without him, I miss him so much

  • This seems like a stupid idea at first but it's actually amazing. They mix high resistance metals into the bricks so the bricks can conduct electricity and heat up while doing that. And then they blow air through the holes on the bricks to extract the heat whem needed. It leaks about 3% of the stored energy per day which is absolutely nothing considering it's cost

    I'm gonna drop these papers here. First one is more of a brief intro and the second one discusses practicality and logistics of such systems

  • Rpeak values are calculated using the advertised clock rate of the CPU. For the efficiency of the systems you should take into account the Turbo CPU clock rate where it applies

    I'm gonna speculate, but I don't think these systems can run all cpu cores on turbo due to power and thermal limitations and because that wouldn't be good cost/processing power wise (since you need excessive cooling to do that). Rather, they fire turbo on groups of CPUs, allowing the CPUs to cool down till the sequence wraps around

    So, I think rPeak is the processing power achieved when the computer is turboing a large chunk of CPUs

    Sorry for my messy writing, I'm a little tired

  • Not a single party on the face of the earth is gonna switch to an alternative voting system. Democracy devolving into 2 parties is a problem in nearly every country and unfortunately the ones who can make the change are the ones who benefit from first pass the post voting

    No "democratic" party is gonna switch to STAR or a similar voting system unless the citizens start being very loud.

    On other hand, radicalizing people to support alternative voting is also very hard, because it is hard to explain and hard to understand for majority of people and its often viewed as if the supporter is trying to benefit from the said change and trying to sabotage democracy, when in reality, they are the ones who want real democracy

  • Real Linux users only drink GPL licensed cola

  • I made a 100GB alt account and uploaded 25GB of files through an encrypted mount. We'll see what happens when I cancel it tomorrow

  • Yup I know I am the product. That's why we are encrypting everything with AES256 before upload using rclone's crypt remote

    I just don't trust any cloud provider tbh. Performance hit from AES256 is very insignificant and it provides solid privacy regardless of provider. Might as well get the cheap one

    Possibility of Google keeping API access up after cancellation is why I asked this question. To learn what happens when to rclone Google drive mount after an expiration

  • Well, my VPS is used mainly by my friends for Minecraft servers, collaboration, file sharing, streaming and pretty much everything cloud related

    Most of them live in Istanbul and my VPS provider is one of the most reliable and affordable providers located in Istanbul.

    Unfortunately, Hertzner doesn't work for me because their prices are astronomical for me compared to Google's regional pricing for Turkey (40TL/mo = 1.1USD/mo for 2TB)

    I just wanna exploit the service as much as possible since I just don't rely on them. Electricity prices are too high for homelab but maybe I could set up a solar powered server if I save a little (I'm a student, I don't have much money, but I like the hobby)

    I'll probably try accessing cancelled drive account with rclone and find out if it's possible
