That’s impossible. He would be too busy telling everyone that he uses Arch to get any work done.

I would much rather have a safer battery, even if it’s a bit bigger and heavier.

It would be nice if they would switch to safer batteries like LiFePO4 for power banks. They rarely catch fire and you can put them out with a fire extinguisher.

I think just about everyone who is not an executive at a tech company is highly skeptical of AI.

If you want to create threads in FreeCAD, install the fasteners workbench. It makes it much easier and it has a setting for creating 3D printable threads.

That uses proof of work rather than just detecting and blocking the bots.

I’ve never had too much trouble removing TPU from a textured PEI plate. If the part doesn’t want to come off, lift up a corner of the part with a knife and put a drop of IPA under it.

It’s that thing that won’t let you watch videos in the quality you paid for if they don’t like the device or browser you use.

Mesh should be an option of last resort. It reduces the speed and increases the latency quite a bit. The only thing worse is power line networking, which has the side effect of turning your whole house into an RF jammer.

The cell carriers don’t need more bandwith. 5G is already quite fast with the existing allocations. The only times I’ve used 5G and thought it’s too slow has been in rural areas where the issue is a lack of nearby cell towers, not a lack of bandwidth. The cell carriers already have loads of millimeter wave bandwidth available for use in densely packed, urban areas where the lower frequency bands are insufficient.

It’s WiFi that should be getting more bandwidth. Home internet connections keep getting faster. Multi gigabit speeds are now common in areas with fiber.

I dry my silica gel in a convection toaster oven at 125°C. I put a temperature probe in the bottom of the tray. The temperature will hold around 100°C while it’s drying and jumps up fairly quickly when it’s done. It usually takes around 90 minutes.

Don’t put indicating silica gel in anything you will use for food, it’s toxic. Some types are less toxic than others, but none are completely safe. I picked up a used toaster oven and baking tray from a thrift store and marked them “not for food”.

Dual booting on separate drives is safe, especially if you unplug the windows drive while installing Linux so you can’t accidentally mix them up. Just don’t mess with the windows drive from Linux. It’s probably encrypted if you’re running windows 11 anyways.

Some MediaTek WiFi cards are not supported. I had to replace one in a laptop.

That would only help if they are still seeded when you need them. Torrents for something like individual TV episodes usually won’t have seeds for very long after the season pack gets released.

There’s no ads when you’re using uBlock Origin.

So how do you determine if your headphones have the vulnerable chip in them?

Mod Organizer 2 works great with wine and proton. Installation is a bit complicated though. The recent versions of MO2 require wine 9 or newer.

The GPU won’t have any issues encoding several video streams at the same time. That’s not really necessary though. The cameras will do the encoding for you. Just set the bitrate and framerate that you want on the camera and pass that through. Most cameras support two streams, the secondary stream is usually limited to SD though. All of my Hikvision cameras support RTSP. It’s mostly just the consumer grade crap that only works with the manufacturers cloud service so they can spy on you or restrict features whenever they want.

Don’t make the mistake I did and buy any Hikivision stuff from Amazon. They are all grey market and the firmware can’t be updated. I tried to update one of mine and now the user interface is stuck in Chinese. You have to get them from an authorized distributor.

My watch runs for years from a coin cell. There’s no way that I’m replacing it with an internet connected spy device that constantly needs to be charged.

It’s working fine here. Are you sure you didn’t get a fake version of the site?
