Guys I found the GNOME dev!
“Hermit in a log cabin” is my retirement plan. If I could WFH from a log cabin I definitely would.
You should know that not all clients display your display name, some only show your username@instance.
It’s not apparent to everyone that your name is Onno.
There is no original thought.
A friend of mine had some explaining to do when he screwed up a dhcp config change and started routing his guest wifi through his “personal” pihole instead of the restricted guest one (he had family/children over often and did not want to be the reason nephew Timmy got an eyeful of wet bush or a beheading).
His family-friendly pihole was at holypi.lastname.local
and his private one was creampi.lastname.local
You can get plenty of protein from cheese if you’re alright with having a dysfunctional digestive tract.
See, even ping hates “consistent device naming!”
The other poster said it’s about convenience but that’s not really true. The claim to fame for NVMe drives is speed: While SATA SSDs can theoretically run at up to 500 MB/s, the latest NVMe drives can hit 7000+ MB/s.
It’s for this reason that you should pay attention to which NVMe drive you choose (if speed is what you’re after). SATA-based M.2 drives exist – and they run at SATA speeds – so if you see a cheap M.2 drive for sale it’s probably SATA and intended for bulk storage on laptops and SFF PCs without room for 2.5" drives. Double check the specs to be sure what you’re getting.
If you’re practicing 3-2-1 backups then you probably don’t need to bother with RAID.
I can hear the mechanical keyboards clacking; Hear me out: If you’re not committed to a regular backup strategy, RAID can be a good way to protect yourself against a sudden hard drive failure, at which point you can do an “oh shit” backup and reconsider your life choices. RAID does nothing else beyond that. If your data gets corrupted, the wrong bits will happily be synced to the mirror drives. If you get ransomwared, congratulations you now have two copies of your inaccessible encrypted data.
Skip the RAID and set up backups. It can be as simple as an external drive that you plug in once a week and run rsync, or you can pay for a service like backblaze that has a client to handle things, or you can set up a NAS that receives a nightly backup from your PC and then pushes a copy up to something like B2 or S3 glacier.
It is uncommon for US grocery stores and supermarkets to leave carts scattered around the parking lot in corrals on purpose. Typically there’s an employee who frequently retrieves all the carts and puts them in a huge covered stall just by the building entrance, so the corrals are often empty. Hell, some stores don’t have corrals at all.
The store bolts a cart to one of these:

And then the person wrangling carts will pull carts out of the corral and load them up in front of this.
They carry a remote that makes the retriever move forward, so the employee can just stand at the front of the (sometimes surprisingly long) train of carts and steer it.
These things push way harder than a teenager in a back support belt could ever accomplish, so it both increases efficiency of retrieval (more carts at once) and reduces the chances of injury.

Proton is also one of the few with proper P2P support, particularly helpful for those that are increasingly inclined to sail the seven seas.

I’dn’t’ve said it like that.
I think I just threw up in my mouth a little.
Walmart is the only place where I’ve been stopped during the checkout process because the camera system thinks I’m stealing.
I’m a nerd that tries to minmax my self checkout by putting items in the cart or handbasket in a manner conducive to efficient removal. I’ll position the cart on my left, scanner in front, bags on right, and go as fast as the scanner will register the barcode and display the item on screen.
This works wonderfully everywhere else and I find it rather fun. I can count on Walmart to flag me at least once every trip (even though I slow down there for this reason), with the screen showing the flashing “POSSIBLE THEFT” message and video of me swiping an item quickly across the reader.
Maybe I should start parking the cart in the middle of the pathway like every other Walmart shopper and taking twenty seconds to dig every item out of the bottom of the cart before meandering around looking for where I set down the handheld scanner.
API calls often return json. It’s just a data format.
I unironically love this and would use it as my watch face just to get a reaction from my coworkers. Link?
Ok that’s just not true at all.
Core temps ramp up astonishingly fast on RPi!
