- Comment on YSK: Walmart online "Marketplace" store has third party sellers that Walmart does not always vet fully, or set their prices. Some of these sellers can be fraudulent in nature. 1 day ago:
This is party much every retailer out there, this is not news.
Amazon and eBay are obvious, but Walmart, Best Buy, Staples, Newegg, Target, Lowes, etc. They’ve all done it to expand their online presence. You have options to filter by company name or “sold and ship by” to cut out possibly bad sellers but you’d not know to check unless you’ve had a bad experience returning product.

It’s roughly split in OS in US. I fell most security conscious users are android users. Sold might initially give slightly better initial privacy, android is far more customizable to the point there’s no contest.
Plus, I buy my phones outright so I’m not stuck with a $1000+ phone in a contract or subsidized phone plan making payments.

All good man!! There’s a ton of different ammo aimed at different things, so no doubt too many overlap in names and specs, etc.
Holy shit that guy chose “defensive” ammo of .357 magnum lmao! Is there a .357 that wouldn’t destroy the target? Haha that’s awesome. The 9mm for the 2nd test is far more common, but interesting they’re going for penetration while still expanding. You’d think they contradict each other.
All I know is, I don’t want to be on the receiving end of any bullets!

Yes, it generates a larger cavity/hole than a JHP (jacketed hollow point) and the article continues comparing JHP to this new round.
A traditional HP is just that, the center is open, and it almost immediately breaks open on impact so shrapnel sort of goes all over the target. This is safer for everyone involved but might take several shots to stop someone because of the little actual penetration. Especially of a heavy canvas coat is worn out can severely degrade performance.
This round, is copper filled with a fluid from the sounds of it, but instead of the front opening up in impact, this his there target and spreads from the rear (the fluid moving forward causing cavitation part). This means the round had a chance to penetrate while also expanding and puting pressure on surrounding tissue which causes more damage. Still though, as it expands, it should greatly reduce velocity and not go through the entire target. A JHP might go on 2-5 inches or more based on design and caliber. Maybe this could go 6-10 inches. If it did exit, there’s likely too little force to do extreme damage to whatever else it hits.
I’ve got some in my safe, but never shot this particular round to experience it myself. I’ve shot all sorts of standard ball, FMJ, JHP, and composite or lead-free rounds of numerous caliber and form factor.

Jfc I hope you’re not serious lol. These are self-defense rounds, meant to break apart inside the attacker or intruder, so you’re not shooting through walls, potentially killing people on the other side.
Part of a defense training class includes, “know your target and what’s behind it” for a reason

Docker makes sense for several applications, but there’s no intuition unless you’re good at memorizing commands/command lines. I can’t just open up an installer or fumble through it decently well enough to get up and running.
While a UI does add overhead, done well it’s not bad. But also, different people learn different styles, and for the extra bit of resources, I’m willing to sacrifice a few MB ram or CPU utilization for less tinker time. However, 20 years ago I didn’t mind spending that time learning stuff like that because I had a lot more time and way less commitments!

- Comment on Popular self-hosting services worth running 4 days ago:
I’m going against the new-age tech grain with this, but… I fucking despise docker anything. I can follow directions fine, it’s the troubleshooting that takes too much time. Sure, I’ll learn it eventually, but I do IT for a living I’m not coming home to waste my nights also doing this.
I’ve setup ZimaOS as a massive NAS with Yunohost on anything web-hosted/accessible. A. It’s easier with a graphical UI on stuff that’s packaged. B. Installing, updating, and most other steroids are pretty well automated/packaged to work really well. C. When i have the conversations with friends who aren’t tech savvy and are overwhelmed, I want to have firsthand knowledge of easy systems that’re basic, but powerful, and will help them dip their toes in freedom.
No Proxmox, no docker stuff, no nested VMs, no more complex setups. While I can learn to troubleshoot and memorize CLI, I’m too old and busy with family and work/commute to deal with problems at home lol. Too much tinkering has poised my wife off to the point she thinks all the self hosted stuff is unreliable. So, I deploy, test, vet basic issues, and if it’s too much time or setup involved, or dependencies on other apps, I’m out!!
Too many containers, too many fragile, partial service apps that just feel incomplete. Yuno and Zima (formerly casa) are great!! Others being tested too for fun but at snails pace lol.

- Comment on Big tech companies agree to not ruin your electric bill with AI data centers 1 week ago:
A. It’s a pat on the back attempt to trick people into thinking they care
B. There were DEFINITELY back door deals being made beforehand on energy uses and technologies, so IF they move forward, they’ve already invested money into those energy companies, so while they “spend” money in infrastructure, it’ll be returned in dividends and stock prices. So they’re not really losing any money overall.
C. Fuck them because there’s no way they all just up and agreed to this, unless there’s something in it for Trump’s family to profit off of it. So there your reason why this magic reversal of policy happened.

Utah my TCL phone is fucking awesome! It wasn’t listed in specs, but has one. I add a lot of interesting and unique privacy settings not found in other Android12 that I know of. Had a privacy audit mode to check through all apps and told you what it didn’t think needed permission to mic, contacts, etc. Beats going through each app to do this.
