  The Le Potato AML-S905X-CC has h.264 and h.265 decoders up to 4k, emmc connector So you don’t have to run off an SD card. I’ve used it as a media player and its pretty damn solid. I can’t speak to streaming games because I don’t do that, so I don’t know if it’s a different format. It does not have a powerful processor, so if the stream is encoded differently I wouldn’t expect it to be very good.

  Its pretty old, around rpi3 performance, but having the decoders in there make it better than the RPI 4 for playing those types of videos.

  Ah, but you see, they don’t do it now.

  That last sentence. Perfection.

  I got lucky and bought a house in 2015 at 28, I barely pulled it off with roommates, barely pulling it off now with a fiancé. There’s no way I could buy a house now. I’m not even sure we could upgrade if we needed to.

  Unfortunately, per the comment you replied to, that isnt under my control.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Passkeys Explained: The End of Passwords⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Oh, I agree, but I have to argue enough with professionals who know better as it is. I have to do it every day with recent PhDs as a BA who’s been doing the job for 15 years. At this point it’s not my problem if something happens. I have other things that affect me every day to fight about. I’ll just continue cycling through my no repeats after 10 changes, 12 character passwords and using my yubikey for docusign for my own sanity.

  K, I’ll go tell the CEO that they need to come up with something different.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Passkeys Explained: The End of Passwords⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve found a pretty good use for a passkey. Docusign. About every 3 months I need to docusign something at work. The process involves logging in, changing your password, logging in again, opening the document, logging in to sign, logging in to finish. The only steps you get to skip if there’s more than one document is the initial log on, and changing password. So with a passkey I just touch it a bunch of times and there’s no password change.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How often do you update software on your servers?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  For me, unattended-upgrade does it’s thing. Updating other packages happens whenever I think about it. Very few things are not containerized and there’s very little added beyond the base Debian install, so when I do update its maybe a dozen packages.

  I would previously reboot during thunderstorms if we lost power, but now that I’ve got a UPS I probably ought to come up with a different plan.

  Having just dealt with something similar from Linux to windows, I'm 97% sure this is the cause. Mine was a "same file name" issue because capitalization.

  He looks like someone in a cult. Wide open eyes, thousand yard stare, not mentally in the same universe as the rest of the world.
