  Yeah but 1gb/s by me is $80/mo minimum…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨OpenWrt Two will be a higher-performance router with 10 Gigabit LAN and WiFi 7 support - Liliputing⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  1 Ethernet port does not a router make.

  Ollama + OpenWebUI also can do this.

  Just do Navidrome. It’s better anyway in a multitude of ways.

  They are. They’re shipping several RISC-V SOCs

  Don’t forget Laura Ingraham in 2016 testing the waters by tossing a Sig Heil at an image of Trump at the RNC.

  I didn’t read that this was for residential connections?

  LTT are also a bunch of loonie toon characters cosplaying as techies who lost all their data multiple times to malpractice. I’d hardly uplift them as a banner case.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Should i selfhost?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Maintenance is easier than you think. I “maintain” 40+ services by simply automatically updating them. And if that makes one stop working (very rare) I get an alert and fix it when I get time.

  I use ansible for that, though you could more easily accomplish much the same with Watchtower.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Should i selfhost?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The best thing you can do to increase your confidence in the data reliability is to invest in backups AND doing at least RAID-1 on a reliable check-summing filesystem like ZFS, which Proxmox supports easily out of the box.

  I have ZFS and cloud based backups and I’ve never lost or corrupted data in over 10 years.

  And personally, I don’t back up my movies/TV shows. The volume is too high to bother and with ZFS snapshots and reliability, and the high seas being what they are, most everything is (eventually) recoverable.

  Yes.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Here are the patents Nintendo and the Pokémon Company are suing Palworld about, according to Pocketpair⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  If those are the only 3 items they’re suing over, in an American court of law it’d be a slam dunk for PocketPair. Theres so much prior art, open use, and poor definitions involved the patents would be quickly invalidated.

  But I’m not aware of the nuance of Japanese court, only that they tend to protect IP even more strongly than US courts.

  So that’s like, what, one 22nm fab?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Nvidia to ship a billion of RISC-V cores in 2024⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  They’ve been shipping them in every GPU for years.

  These things are now managed by 10 to 40 custom RISC-V cores developed by Nvidia, depending on chip complexity. Nvidia started to replace its proprietary microcontrollers with RISC-V-based microcontroller cores in 2015, and by now, virtually all of its MCU cores are RISC-V-based, according to an Nvidia slide demonstrated at the RISC-V Summit.

  The cost was spread over several years. And at 25€ a ticket this doesn’t just serve the elite. The building is also a cultural landmark, so preserving it is of social interest, and the money spent went straight back into the local economy, where it was swiftly taxed again.

  These arguments are lazy, find better ones.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨18 treated for severe nausea in Stuttgart after opera of live sex and piercing⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  When the tickets are only €25 it’s not just for the rich. The opera house is a cultural landmark, preserving it serves the public. And it was 1.5B spread over several years, not all at once.

  Honestly, the ‘money on art bad’ argument is not a good line here.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨18 treated for severe nausea in Stuttgart after opera of live sex and piercing⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Oh no no, don’t worry. Your pennies only paid for the art you like, other people paid for that weird stuff. That’s the best part of money, once you throw it all in a pile it all l looks the same!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨18 treated for severe nausea in Stuttgart after opera of live sex and piercing⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  So what you’re saying is, such renovations obviously could only take place with government tax dollars, since as a private enterprise there’s no way they could make it work? And this relatively small amount of spending in the grand scheme of the tax system helps keep the local arts flourishing?

  Sounds like the tax system is working!
