Bernie is not nearly as popular as most on the internet echo chambers would have you believe.

The fact is this is now a money game. Grass roots campaings and parties are more disadvantaged than ever at being able to get their voice out to people, especially ones that arent perptually over connected to the internet and forums.

From what i saw they seemed to be pressure/heat tanks (they were mostly silver or dark and in full sun).

Looked like most places had their own personal water tower.

I was in the southern parts, you were hot and it was already warm. The shower was basically a way to cool off. I would take a couple a day, but they were always quick. and again, water pressure was like 5-10 psi on a good day.

We got an Airbnb in Hanoi at one point, and that had hot showers and good pressure and I took a very long one. Best I had felt in a while.

I dont think i saw any TP in VN. Everything was bidet and wash hands.

wasnt terrible. Cold showers constantly and no water pressure were by far more of a culture shock to me. It was more similar to when I would go and hike for weeks on end in college.

The observation isn’t about discovering brown dwarfs, but rather it contributes to defining the boundaries between what is classified as a brown dwarf and what is considered a gas giant. Additionally, it was one of the first instances where a brown dwarf was observed with satellites, making it noteworthy.

Hm. I’ll give it a shot. I was trying it under pop!

Logitech has, in fact, EOLd parts of the video conferencing hardware. At best it may continue to work but no longer recieve updates. At worst teams and zoom deprecate APIs that are critical and force you to upgrade.

That will 100% cause it with the 3 larger creditors (where fraud targeting is likely one of the highest…)

Are you proxying or using a VPN to access their site. I often see IP blocks, even if that proxy is a simple socks proxy to a VPS i own. Many VPS subnets are blocked/restricted wholesale, as are many of the big VPN endpoint ips.

THe one or two times a year i go, i just say “That one” and point or touch the bottom of the cup.

for me, i always put my work bag in the back seat for this reason. I would have to open the back door to get it out. Never happened but it was a concern and i completely have a tendancy to be on autopilot in the mornings.

1. Things like changes to TOS or services can be seriously mitigated by hosting it yourself. WHat happens if Spotify changes the music they host or inserts ads into everything. Well for me, nothing. On the flip side, if some of my stuff goes down, kids and wife will bark. But honestly its mostly set it and forget it.

2. KISS is a thing that applies to many things in life. Anything “smart” in your home should ideally function without your “smart” features working. Ie: light switches should be dumb light switches if something breaks etc etc. Also dont get caught in using rack or enterprise gear. You can learn just as much using smaller, fatter desktops with bigger fans and air cooling over a power hungry rack servers with 80mm fans that blow your eardrums out. My entire lab runs on old dell workstations and raspberry pis’

Some of it to me, is just hardware selection. My laptop and egpu run windows fine. Linux gaming is rough as hell.

That said, i bought a steam deck, and it will run the same games my laptop struggles with in linux, just fine.

Its a copypasta from /r/grilledcheese from some years back.

logitech’s software is trash across the board.

Have their MX keyboard and their logi+ software regualrly craps out making the function/special keys unusable until i log off/back on. Sometimes WHILE im using the keyboard.

And their gaming stuff is no better. Many times just having the logitech g suite software running means my mic will randomly stop working, if i remove the software the headset runs fine.

Their hardware is solid, but there is a 0% chance i would pay for their software.

For one…thats a melt. And it doesnt look great. But I think there in lies the rub. even the best chefs get there by experimenting and trying new things and even then, when they get outside their wheelhouse, they arent any better than that dude at your local diner.

Worse. It went off into other conspiracy subjects like 9/11 and all sorts of crap. Theres frankly a lot of weird stuff on amazon prime for free that i would have never seen had i not dozed off.

Most of the other apps (netflix, plex, etc) and even the streaming platform (roku) have measures to combat falling asleep. Whether its disabling auto-play (which amazon didnt have) or bandwidth saver features that will periodically ask if you are still there (which amazon appears to somehow bypass or disable, or did).

These days though i set a sleep timer to shut off the lights and TV at midnight.

Not free as in foss. But free as in beer.

You can use xpenology or just a synology disk station with active backup for business. It does quite well with windows and just runs in the background.

Before using that I use urbackup ,which is FOSS. It also worked quite well.

Yeah it is in a way. Thankfully it doesn’t leech into my main Amazon shopping reccomendations.

I tried to use their UX. Its bad. And the worst is I fell asleep watching something like Project Bluebook once. And the Prime Reccomendations streamed a SHITLOAD of alien conspiracy content while i slept. It ruined the recs etc. And you cant delete the primary account profile…only the sub-profiles.

Frankly i only go on it to see what I should maybe load into Sonarr/Radarr at this point. fuck em.
