- Comment on Python Foundation rejects $1.5M grant with no-DEI strings 1 day ago:
I’m deeply proud of Python for standing by its community and making the right decision.
- Comment on You're so predictable 2 days ago:
Inflation. Pixels cost less back then.
- Comment on Help with home server plan 3 days ago:
The h265 hardware support is a lot less exciting than you might think. Most hardware that has support to encode it doesn’t even use the hardware encoders anyway because a software encoder produces a significantly better result. I would make sure you have CPU power to handle your transcoding, and I haven’t has any issues transcoding that resolution on my quite old Intel® Core™ i5-4590T CPU @ 2.00GHz.
A Raspi is probably not going to be enough for reliable video transcoding at high resolutions, but I haven’t tried it myself. You certainly have more upgrade path options with a mini-PC while still keeping a low power target.
I agree that distro is not very important if you’re running your services in Docker containers anyway. It’s mostly whatever you find comfortable. My personal recommendation is don’t get too creative unless you enjoy setting up servers. I tend to be conservative in my server OSs.

In the US, the left mirror doesn’t usually have this effect.
- Comment on Could the internet go offline? Inside the fragile system holding the modern world together 3 days ago:
You’re not wrong there. This model doesn’t scale, but there are solutions to this that can help us rebuild. I participate in monthly exercises where we use a repeater system to relay messages in emergencies somewhat like how the telegraph system worked. In this way, we can re-use the limited bandwidth geographically. HF works at the current load but for higher bandwidth needs we can move to regional or even local repeater systems at higher frequencies and find that much more usable bandwidth becomes available.
In a total collapse situation we could start with HF, and slowly form new communities that can scale in much the same way that people scale to form social groups.

I’m a Ham and we send digital messages including a form of electronic email over the air. I’ve exchanged the equivalent of emails across continents with no intermediary. There will always be connection where there is a will. There will be some kind of network, but it might not be the one we have today.

Wasn’t that disproven by Snopes?

I’m already ugly so might as well get paid for it.
- Comment on "A computer can never be held accountable. Therefore computers are a valuable tool for law enforcement and the ruling class." 5 days ago:
There’s a reason why license agreements often stay there there are no warranties express or implied, no guarantees, and no fitness for any particular purpose.

That’s the good spice.

How to delete someone else’s post.
- Comment on As Microsoft Forces Users to Ditch Windows 10, It Announces That It’s Also Turning Windows 11 into an AI-Controlled Monstrosity 1 week ago:
I use it and I have not encountered this. You’re referring to the desktop GUI maybe?
- Comment on As Microsoft Forces Users to Ditch Windows 10, It Announces That It’s Also Turning Windows 11 into an AI-Controlled Monstrosity 1 week ago:
I’ll take a risk and say Fedora KDE Plasma flavor. Rolling release so highly current drivers, and it’s done a great job with my games.
- Comment on As Microsoft Forces Users to Ditch Windows 10, It Announces That It’s Also Turning Windows 11 into an AI-Controlled Monstrosity 1 week ago:
I will continue to enjoy my incredibly straightforward and to the point Linux desktop that’s somehow gained a new AI-free feature by doing nothing.
- Comment on Replacement.AI: Humans no longer necessary 1 week ago:
Point taken!

Looks like they just made it in before the big AI crash.

Are there actually enough users that I can stumble upon others in radio mesh range?

You’re right here, building it with us!
- Comment on NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory to lay off about 550 workers 2 weeks ago:
Unfortunately, the money has already been pocketed.
- Comment on Jeep pushed software update that bricked all 2024 Wrangler 4xe models 2 weeks ago:
A 1.6 in a car that light isn’t all that slow. That’s what, nine seconds? Not a race car, but cars used to be so much slower.
- Comment on So I told that librul teachin' lady that the only letters I need to know is U-S-A 2 weeks ago:
Not nearly lifted enough. And where’s the cross and punisher logo?

Last time I checked gold and silver were at all time highs and the dollar was down more than 10% YTD.
- Comment on Give. It. Back. 2 weeks ago:
My dog swallowed a piece of string once. I gently pulled and it just kept coming.
- Comment on Everyday AI looks more like the '08 housing bubble 2 weeks ago:
Nonsense. We can print an unlimited amount of dollars.
- Comment on Everyday AI looks more like the '08 housing bubble 2 weeks ago:
Yes! The problem is that we won’t accept the full correction that is actually required. We print money, we buy securities, we find ways to prop to reduce the pain but we end up shifting the weakness to other areas of the economy.

Stocks on sale you say?

My wife says the problem with babies is that they grow up into children and she isn’t as fond of those.
Enjoy while it lasts.
