Music lessons over video call, that has to be a real pain. I can’t find it now, but there’s an Adam Neely video where he talks about why online recording sessions can’t work, as transmission latency works against the immediacy needed to play music together. He said it better than I can.
Except if your idea is to play in turns, but then capturing the thing you want to show… Can’t you find another teacher closer to you?
According to Varoufakis, Europe missed the bus on cloud capital (=big cloud platforms like amazon, meta, twitter,…) and the race is currently playing out between US and China.
It’s going to be powerful by every imperial, too.
Oh boy, 2017 can’t come soon enough!
This file compresses so well. 🤏
Terrible opsec sharing your WiFi SSID, by the way. I can’t find one right now, but I’ve seen global “wardriving” maps of all broadcast WiFi SSIDs that allow to pinpoint a somewhat unique SSID or at least narrow down to a few options. A list of SSIDs around you pretty much gives away your precise location.
Had similar behaviour last night. Turned out UnboundDNS had crashed in my opnsense firewall and took “internet connectivity” with it. Restarting the service fixed it in one click after I found it.
Highly recommend cupping your favourite coffee with different kinds of water (e.g. tap, mineral, DIY water see below). It’s pretty eye opening.
Here’s how to make your own, if you’re motivated to try: https://www.baristahustle.com/diy-water-recipes-the-world-in-two-bottles/
What is this doing in Technology?!
It’s not my Github, but I think you’d do something like print and store in a safe place your trusted party has access to. My SO has my Keepass password stored in their password safe and theoretically knows (and hopefully will recall when the need arises) how to find my Keepass file, for example.
In short, it’s trust. And then there’s the fact that they would never voluntarily touch this stuff anyway. 😅
Not about design patterns, but about making preparations: https://github.com/potatoqualitee/eol-dr
Grindr faces massive fine for “allegedly” “sharing” “sensitive” “user” “data”.
It’s that, plus “notifications can disrupt your sleep.”
“A much greater issue [than the blue light] is likely to be the content viewed,” says Peirson. “Reading work emails relating to impending deadlines is clearly going to cause anxiety, and anxiety is strongly related to insomnia.”
Storage box is self-serviced storage on a single server, as far as I’m aware. If you need replication, you need to rent storage at a second location and do it yourself.
And I’m sure the fish he caught that one time really was YEA big. And boy the fight he gave him.
By god, lemmy is civilised. 😂 I love it.
I can see what you mean, too, but am still on the liking him side I guess. And anyway, l’art pour l’art and all that, right? 😅
Hm, interesting. I didn’t read it like that, but as an economist trying to make sense of what’s going on and explain it to others. I didn’t question whether the thoughts are original, neither do I know if there are holes in his concepts that I as a non-economist am blind to. My personal opinion, anyway, is that the message is important today (or better yet 15 years ago but nobody would have listened 😉), no matter whether he is primarily motivated by his ego or what.
Maybe this makes me part of the people he caters to, but that line of thinking doesn’t lead anywhere meaningful anyway, I think.
I liked the end of the book: A call to action for us to come up with tools and technological solutions for “users” to stand together so we can create resistance against overly powerful cooperations and demand our rights. I don’t think it’s hypocritical for him to ask for this either. We need people to point problems out and problem solvers, both.
Have you read more of what he wrote or how did you come by that opinion on him? Technofeudalism and a number of interviews leading up to the book release was the first I was exposed to him.
I have a Raspberry Pi 3 with a Hifiberry DAC running OSMC (nicely packaged Kodi on top of Debian) acting as my media center and recently installed Jellycon with the hopes of being able to use server side transcoding for a few formats my old TV doesn’t support.
My verdict: Menu navigation is slow, but it’s a native kodi integration (supports widgets) and playback works great once you made your way through the menus. You can selectively set transcoding options per file type which is exactly what I needed.
Best solution I’ve seen so far, as it also does IR remote passthrough over HDMI if your TV supports it. The addon works in any kodi setup of course. I think there might be a way to start playback from the Jellyfin web UI but haven’t bothered with it. This would fully remedy the menu slowness, I think.
No harm in giving it a try, but I personally wouldn’t bother with a selfhosted solution for it. Especially if you’re not sure it will work out.
