It seems to be open source (source code is in github), but the license isn't free for commercial use. I'm not exactly sure what to call it...

> Sleep is an eight-and-a-half hour concept album based around the neuroscience of sleep by composer Max Richter.

Now that's a long album. Maybe good for sleeping to?

And yet even with an essentially centralized service like Zelle, the system is rife with abuse: https://krebsonsecurity.com/2022/10/report-big-u-s-banks-are...

simmer down

Not OP, but I think the purpose of tailscale w/ magicdns is to create a VPN connection directly between the laptop and desktop, regardless of the underlying network locations of either. I believe tailscale uses connection brokering so all connections can be outbound (no firewall policy / port forwarding). MagicDNS is probably just a quality of life improvement here.

Why do you believe that to be the case? Docker performance overhead is so minimal I highly doubt you'd be able to tell any difference compared to native processes.

I'm using OneNote also, but with daily notes, organized into monthly sections. This worked well for about a year, but became somewhat cumbersome. Fortunately the only way I'm ever using notes older than a week or two is via search anyway, so it doesn't really matter that much.

I don't know the author, but it sounded like advice geared toward creative writing , not necessarily factual or technical.

I think this is true, and the issue is deeper for kubernetes. A k8s cluster by itself is not particularly useful. In order to deploy real software you're going to need a bunch of other components, extensions, and software. Things like persistent storage, ingress controllers, service mesh, certificate managers, DNS, etc. All of those components require consideration from a security perspective.

I see this argument as similar to the idea that 'bitch' doesn't have to do with gender. If that were true, wouldn't calling someone a 'dog' carry the same weight?

Let's stick with 'asshole'.

Have you seen a decent tutorial for setting up SD locally? I've been using it through huggingface, but that seems pretty limited.

How's the linux support? So many of these bargain laptops are listed as Windows devices. I still remember the days of the 'winmodems' so trusting that these devices can run linux well is a tough sell.

I've definitely browsed AliExpress in this category many times, but I expect the quality of these devices leaves something to be desired. And I say this as someone who pre-orderd the Popcorn PocketPC, and considering buying a Pinephone Pro with keyboard case.

And GCP has a CDN too. Would you use the GCP CDN in front of AWS, or vice versa? It's fairly common to see Cloudflare CDN (& WAF, etc) used in front of services hosted in AWS, GCP, Azure.

> Hackers shows the career guys as lame and high strung, but the hobbyists (or as Razor and Blade put it, those hacking as a survival trait) as cool and having fun.

I think The Plague was having fun.

Someone should help this fellow set up an Amazon affiliate account and link those book titles.

Most rodenticides, and a great many other hazardous household chemicals actually carry a warning that they are illegal to use in a way different than described in the instructions.

Your problem is that you can't set ENV variables at the global level? Have you looked at YAML anchors? Makes things more DRY for longer/complex compose files.

I think this could be a fun and not so intimidating way to start to get more intentional in art appreciation. A couple minutes a day is a low enough investment that it would be easy to add to any schedule. I look forward to trying this when it's working.

I'm not sure it's a browser issue, maybe a load issue? Could there be throttling on the backend API you're using to fetch the artwork?

I've used this premise along with a small piece of 3d printer filament in a rotary tool to weld plastic parts together. It works!

MUDs did it for me. Type faster or DIE!

Great podcast, I really like the stories. Unfortunately it's a little basic technically. Any suggestions for more techy podcasts on netsec / the scene?

There's a LoRa model of the Popcorn Pocket P.C. which will have a physical keyboard and run Linux, however they're a couple years behind manufacturing schedule so it's a little doubtful if it'll ever actually be for sale.

This project uses EKS...

Don't have one near me, but I've heard tales of the REI dumpsters being absolute treasure troves of usable outdoor equipment.

> Is there a business pattern for pushing gratis software tools to undergrads so that they then preach them to their new bosses as new hires once they graduate?

A generation of CS students learned to program in Java on Solaris machines subsidized by Sun.

>Docker compose. Swarm is a closer alternative, although it's future is unclear.

Another alternative is Nomad.

I thought they were gone after the developer had a fit: https://www.ghacks.net/2022/05/19/fairemail-developer-calls-... but I guess the issue is resolved and they've recanted?

I'm not sure which Firefox you're using, but the description you've laid out here doesn't match my experience at all. I've been using FF on desktop and android for years and have had no issues whatsoever. In what way do you feel firefox has been "left too far behind" ?

There was a time when Chrome was faster by an ample margin, but it's no longer enough to be an important distinction. Between the privacy respecting features, and plugin support on mobile - Firefox is the best choice.
