You can get a Dell micro Optiplex for less money and have a full fledged i5 or i7 processor with similar power usage.

Absolutely, I’ve got a cluster of mini PCs with 7th/8th gen T sku i7s, plus an Optiplex SFF running a standard i7-7700, and everything together draws less than 100W on average.

Syncthing never had an official Android app, and the current iteration, Syncthing-Fork, is updated quite frequently.

I try to stay away from the play store at this point. Even Tasker is sourced from the dev himself (license is like $4, absolutely worth it), and is more capable than the play store version.

The only thing I’m really questioning is the removal of the Archos devices. I’m sure if this is legit then there are reasons for it, but those devices essentially started the entire Rockbox project.

Today is still 4/1, so I’m going to wait until at least tomorrow before I form an opinion on this.

Well now I can’t unhear that, thanks.

Me too.

My coworker is an air force vet. I just told him, with zero context, “it wasn’t the war thunder forums this time”. He closed his eyes, sighed, and shook his head, then went back to what he was doing.

I mean, Google just updated the newer Pixels to run a literal Debian VM, so… I don’t see why not.

In one instance, a macOS and Safari user from a LayerX enterprise customer was targeted. Although the organization employed a Secure Web Gateway, the attack bypassed it. However, LayerX’s AI-based detection system, which analyzes web pages using numerous parameters at the browser level, successfully blocked the attack.

Poorly-placed ad for LayerX’s AI garbage, maybe?

This is so on-the-nose.

I wish it were that easy in the US.

Yep. Most websites make it intentionally difficult to reject this stuff by giving you a single “ACCEPT ALL” button and then burying each individual actual setting behind multiple menus and dropdowns, some of which are deliberately obfuscated, sometimes with odd color choices for the toggle that make it difficult to determine whether the option is actually on or off.

Some websites offer a “Reject All” option, but they are few and far between.

Fuck Teams, all my homies hate Teams

Eric literally said “🤷‍♂️” when asked the same in the r/Pebble AMA today.

Valid points, honestly. I have the iPhone because it’s what work provides me. So I made it work for me. ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

My personal device is the Pixel 9 Pro XL, for what it’s worth.

I responded to either one of your comments here, but I can say that FaceID is pretty damn good for what it is, and it will not unlock for any of my coworkers while in a cleanroom. FaceID uses more than just the camera, as it can see through sunglasses.

And FaceID is absolutely atrocious if you wear anything on your face, which I often do, like sunglasses and helmets, or if you’re laid on your face.

About that… I work in a clean room, which means everything except my eyes and nose are completely covered - including wearing safety glasses over my regular glasses. My work phone is an iPhone 12, and in that situation, its FaceID still works most of the time. I can’t say the same about my Pixel 9 Pro XL, as its face recognition needs the entire face.

But I digress…

I’m pretty sure that most recently Ukraine has been hammering Putin’s oil production ability, so Putin agreed to not get his ass kicked for 30 days.

I’m of the opinion that Ukraine should just fuck shit up anyway and end it once and for all. That’s exactly what Putin has tried to do every single time he “agrees” to a ceasefire. Why would this time be any different? This is just Putin being the absolute fucking coward he really is because he’s getting what he deserves.

Well did they violate it or not? Anything short of an absolute “You violated this law” is seen as “no”. That’s why they keep getting away with shit is because of fucking weasel wording that gives any sort of wiggle room. You give an inch, they take a mile.

Be fucking absolute in your rulings. Either they violated or they didn’t. PICK one.

Yes, hence why I mentioned “puppetmaster”
