That’s when I just put the airflow on “feet”. Most cars will actually blow like 30% up on the windshield when set to the feet direction. This lets me avoid running the a/c if I don’t want to.

Yes! It’s great to see some Community content pop up

I sometimes wonder if I made the right decision by only watching GoT through season 7. Then I get reminded to just appreciate what I got 🤣

Is Dunk and Egg good? I saw season 1 on disc at Walmart the other day to learn that it exists.

I’m in the US and my ISP gives everyone CGNAT by default. On the lower tier plans, we have the option to buy a semi-static IP for an extra fee. The higher tier plans include the semi-static IP for free upon request.

I have also been talking with them about IPv6. They will only grant customers a /64 prefix because their pool of v6 addresses is so small, they would run out of their allocation if they granted customers a /60.

By only giving customers a single /64 I cannot implement v6 on my VLANs. This is incredibly frustrating considering v6 has like so many addresses it’s not even like a number most people know. Like a trillion trillion or whatever. And you’re telling me I can only have one (subnet)?

Off topic but out of curiosity, how many people actually work in a data center? I’ve always wanted to work in one but got the impression that there are only a small number of people, maybe a dozen or so, dedicated to keeping the hardware running.

But hearing how it’s affected you makes me think it might not be the best choice for me. I worked from home for about 5 years up to and during COVID, and honestly can relate to feeling less comfortable in social situations after a while. I think the first year or so I was fine and then started to notice the decline of actually wanting to interact with other people.

I am confident you have it exactly backwards. In the summer fan pushes air down to create active airflow that cools you through increased evaporation.

In the winter, fan pulls air up creating circulation to avoid cold spots in the room. Being able to feel air movement makes people feel cooler even if the air is the same temperature as they are.

There was some research recently that showed the same thing. People who are “dug in” on a topic, usually a political topic, will shut down when a person tries to persuade them of an alternative, but are much more open to hear the same arguments from AI and actually reconsider their position.

I believe this is a big reason why X-Ai was so important for conservatives to get off of the ground, they were afraid all the crazy would start wearing off if people asked the “woke” models for the truth.

The recent Hardware Haven video I think was better that the LTT videos. That dude does a great job presenting some pros and cons and is much more level headed in his approach.

But I agree that the big names in YT is doing a good thing showing people it’s not too hard to switch, Especially if you have a spare SSD so you can keep your Windows install just in case.

Anacdotaly I suspect most car software bugs aren’t hunted or patched at all, unless an exec at the company happens to run into the bug in their personal vehicle and flags it for the development team to fix.

I’ve heard too many stories of car software issues where the dealer gives it back with a note “reset the battery and tested good” but the bug is still easily reproduced.

Could have named it GroceryList.xls and would probably still be working there 😂

Not android, actually it’s WebOS which Palm developed first on their Pré line of smartphones before being bought out and then subsequently destroyed by HP. HP sold the OS to LG who has been putting on their TVs ever since.

WebOS was way ahead of it’s time and actually did a lot of things that both Android and iOS later copied years later.

No matter how you shake and dance, the last few drops fall on your pants.

Seems unlikely unless the bubble survives another 5+ years. My guess is power companies are taking AI contracts and cash now, promising to add capacity later, and then when the bubble pops they will shrug, say no more capacity is needed, and give the CEOs a huge bonus.

Agreed. And truly developers don’t need to actually “support” Linux; mostly they just need to not intentionally block games from working.

Linux only needs to hit a “small but not insignificant size market” for the large publishers to start supporting it. They won’t support it if they lose money doing so, but if it continues to grow eventually they will lose money by not supporting it.

Steam machine should provide another bump, just like steam deck.

Rockstar marketing exec: “It must be at least 1TB”

All true. But a few years ago Fire TV had a big update that put full screen video ads that you must navigate off of every time you wake up the fire stick. It’s so bad we stopped using it.

Roku has WAY LESS ads than Fire TV. Yes I get one on the home screen, off to the side, easily ignored.

It’s true they might add more later. It is pretty much the only corporate strategy these days.

Idk if Apple TV is still no ads. It is usually suggested as the best home streamer.
