My issue wasn’t SMB, but automounting the share. As in, turn on wireless, the share is available. I’m coming from Linux and am pretty clueless with MacOS.

Translating text. I recently had to translate a bunch of architectural requirements into english. I honestly don’t know if deepl.com uses GenAI or what. But the job was pretty much copy and paste. Occasionally I had to change a word because the connotation was a bit off, and a few times it got confused with tangled, run-in input and I had to rephrase whole sentences. I’m a native speaker in both languages and I estimate it would have taken me at least three times as long.

My SO has a MacBook, and I thought no sweat, I’m sure I can just autofs or something onto the NAS so that the photo storage is always there. I was wrong. Why dies it have to be such a pain? So clunky, so unreliable.

My girlfriend and I visited family in Florida and did a road trip down to Key West. I got the first album from Gorillaz and it was pretty much the only thing we listened to the whole time down US1.

And now, over 20 years later, I still get this relaxed cruising feeling and can smell the humid, salty air. Just wonderful.

If it’s advisory, how legally binding is it, as in what would happen to you in the case they determined you had the panels activated?

I think I understand even less than after the trailers for Death Stranding 1.

Not really. I was quite surprised when they recently celebrated 40k users.

We’ve had two floor vacuums from Dyson and they were fantastic. Totally dependable, lasted for years and years even though they were hand me downs from our In-laws. As they should - they aren’t cheap.

So we decided getting a cordless Dyson and it’s been, OK I guess? The gasket for the cyclones was improperly installed and lost its seal, and then a catch broke off, so that the dust bucket would just slip off.

Customer support was friendly and quick to help, at least.

I remembered using Vivaldi a while back, I think I’ll look into it again.

So I haven’t been following the Firefox thing that closely. Fennec isn’t an alternative because it uses Firefox’s Sync and Brave is out of the question because it’s crypto Chrome?

That CO2 plays a role in warming the atmosphere was proposed 200 years ago in 1824 by Joseph Fourier.

In 1896, Svante Arrhenius calculated the first prediction of global warming, which still holds up to current models.

In 1901, the term “greenhouse effect” was coined by Nils Gustaf Elholm.

Just a friendly reminder that the concept of man made global warming is literally centuries old.

So what is the advantage to this over something like Bazzite?

Godamnit! At that time, we were visiting family stateside. It was like the window let in a chill, like a rug pulled out from under you, it was tangible that something in the very fabric of the USA had changed.

I remember telling my grandpa, who fled soviet Bulgaria in WWII, that if this goes on, they can make anyone their enemy. 9/11 turned the hate siphon on full blast, and I was certain they would turn on their own.

So happy he didn’t live to see what the Republicans became.

Looks like you’re getting ready for a night of fine dining drinking?

If you’re a motorcycle rider then please consider something abrasion resistant with protectors.

I didn’t ask for anything and all I got was a 12" i3 with 8gb of RAM.

As a enterprise architect I understand that I spend most of my time in Teams, outlook, PowerPoint and excel (damn, it hurts reading that) but I also often have to work on, you know, enterprise sized diagrams.

And the text rendering (at least for me with flatpaks) is completely fuzzy garbage.

DNS calls are definitely cached. You’ll have to wait a few days until your TV refreshes DNS entries.

Congratulations! So, how does the TV work with the adblocker set up?

Why not try it out? Can’t get worse, anyway. Hopefully it’s something you can find out with a quick visual examination, like a blown fuse or tube, or maybe a blown capacitor.
