Is it a timed exclusive?

Not for homelabbers, the board is $399…

Paywalled, any other sources?

Sadly many of my former subscriptions have quit lately, like hello internet, this is only a test and I think there were others, too.

But I have now found digital foundry podcast at least, and gonna try those listed here. Thanks all

As google hasnt given me any reason to trust them in the last decade I wont trust these news without independent 3rd party audit. A little fitting that its them who have one of the most advanced research done in quantum computing, after all…

kind of interesting comparison. I have a 9.8kWp system, and it consists of 405 or 410W panels. I paid approx 1000 euros per kWp, installed.

I have an electric car and a 24U server rack, and didn’t see an electricity bill whole summer even though we had the 20 year old AC running pretty high all the time.

I have one and I like toying around with it. Having a lil poke here and there.

Oh well patientgamers always win.

While I loved the cyberpunk’s premise, idea and atmosphere since the game’s announcement, I sticked to the “no preorders ever” rule and because of reviews decided to just wait them to patch it.

Still haven’t played it, but likely now I can add it to my wishlist and when the time’s right, I’ll try it out.

Yeah, I’ve not touched whatsapp in years

You’re not getting an objective answer to the “did most of the Gtalk/Facebook messenger users even know they were using xmpp, or care?” from lemmy/kbin/fediverse users in 2023, as most here likely do care a wee bit more of the technical and privacy matters than the average joe.

However, I used XMPP personally via integrating it to my irc (weechat+bitlbee) so I could get all the IM services under one interface. I’m doing the same now with Matrix: I have irc, whatsapp, my smart home messages etc all forwarded to matrix.

We also built XMPP chat at our company which I was working for back in the day. I think it was called Jabber back then. Biggest drawback in my opinion was the lack of encryption out of the box - encryption should’ve been more integrated to XMPP from the get go, instead of being an extension.

XMPP/Jabber is once again a thing that could’ve been great for everyone. We could have one singular decentralized technology to IM which would’ve been open to all and interoperable. If approx 20% of the world’s population has a google account and 35% facebook account, at least every third person in the world would’ve been reachable via XMPP. And if it would’ve reached critical mass, it would’ve likely been even bigger.
