I went with the open source one. Slightly more expensive, but had I wanted to I could have bought all the parts and assembled it myself, compiled the firmware, etc.

If a device relies on any kind of external service to initially set up or function thereafter, do not buy. Regardless of brand.

This is what I strive for. When I was looking for a wall charger for my EV I was shocked at how there was only one option that wasn’t “cloud” based. And those aren’t cheap.

I have some invites.

Also what appears to be a typo, Regomize, but is actually them merging “Register” and “anonymize”.

9? That’s quite a bit of compute lol.

My journey started with 1 server, then 4, then 5 (one functioning as a NAS), then 1 (just the NAS box), then I moved and decided to slim it down to a proper NAS and 1 mini PC/NUC clone. Now I’m up to two because the first was an Intel N105 which just isn’t up for the challenges lol

Last time I tried to migrate to Podman the first container I tried was incompatible, so was the second, and the third. Turns out at the time Linuxservers.io stuff wasn’t rootless podman compatible. There have since been some improvement according to my most recent Google search just now, so maybe a retry is coming up.

It has Platinum in ProtonDB for now. Definitely appears to be playable on Linux.

Depended case by case. Sometimes it was exclusive, sometimes not. Usually it was “the common areas in the basement are yours to use but not exclusively” whereas they wouldn’t be generally going upstairs. So I guess we could (and would) invade their shared space but not the other way around ha.

Fortunately only a few weirdos over the year.

Growing up in a relatively large house my parents rented out half the house (the finished basement) a few times. They never directly asked for our consent, but we were informed beforehand so I guess we had the opportunity to speak up?

I manage my G502 with Piper, which does support the G915. While it’ll do LEDs, I manage the LEDs on mine via OpenRGB.

The gameplay looks fine. It looks like a Doom game. But I won’t buy a game with DRM, so I won’t be buying it until that gets removed (at earliest).

Is the maximum 24 characters because their database column is a VARCHAR(24)? That’s one of the first questions that I thought of. Sure, it doesn’t guarantee plaintext, but it’s a indicator that it may be stored plaintext, considering hashing doesn’t care about length. Or at the very least whoever has had eyes on this code doesn’t know shit about security, which makes me less confident in the product as a whole.

The only reason I can think of to have a maximum would be to save on bandwidth and CPU cycles, and even then 24 characters is ridiculously stingy when the difference would be negligible.

Whoops! Didn’t notice that typo. I wouldn’t even dream of subjecting my steam deck to the same 900 mods as my PC.

I modded Cyberpunk 2078 and jumped straight to the NNM app, no issues. Running quite a few mods.

Is there another meaning to “PSA” that isn’t “public service announcement”? It confuses me being in the title as this entire post is written as a suggestion / CTA, not a PSA.

Every time I recall those episodes, and the pain, it gets easier to do, emotionally.

And theoretically I could just get it operated on - there have been improvements in the field. But the prospect of going under the knife is scary, especially in an area where one fuckup or miscalculation could lead to partial paralysis for life. Throw in a mix of abusive American healthcare and… Weekly therapy is more preferable.

No. I’ve considered it though, but I’m a tad worried it won’t make a difference considering the options I’ve seen probably don’t result in 200lbs of force being applied.

In my spine my L5-S1 and L4-L5 are herniated (as of 2017, haven’t checked if any more are). Full on herniated, not bulging. It started when I was 20, and my doctor said surgery should be avoided since it could impact my quality of life significantly at my age (not that my QoL wasn’t already severely impacted). Epidurals and physical therapy didn’t help.

Back then it wasn’t miserable 24/7 but it had it’s moments. Eventually I had an “episode” where I was bedridden in immense amounts of pain for a solid week. During that desperation I found the IDD option and started that. It was rough back then at the start. But within weeks the constant pain died down and I recovered mobility as well as my sciatica improved.

Through… Losing a job I discovered the effects wear off after 2ish months and I start being susceptible to the episodes and random function loss again, so now I just go weekly to keep things peachy. It isn’t full recovery obviously, I still wind up in pain if I do too much with my back, even stuff as little as bending over slightly to do the dishes (because I’m tall), but it beats being disabled in constant pain… Those few episodes I’ve had haunt me. Being so helpless I couldn’t even.

I undergo weekly spinal decompression therapy. While not exactly the same as the medieval torture devices, being strapped in and having my spine pulled from both directions with 200lbs of force is pretty close.

And yes, it feels amazing for a second or two.

I know this is satire but it does hurt. Though in my experience my most concerning code reviews are when I review other senior devs code. Unfortunately my company decided senior devs were a tenure thing.
