I actually just use the cold even in my own bathroom. A bit of frosty water cools the O-Ring after a meal with a biiiiit too much hot sauce, or when that slight lactose-intolerance flares up.

But the heated seat on a good quality bidet… that’s amazing

I believe so

iGPU’s can use system RAM to supplement VRAM. Might still be doable

Well it does mention the Hezbollah hiding among civilians without any notation there, so it kinda reads like “how dare these crazies fire at the terrorists hiding behind civilian shields” (without noting the terrorist part and kinda brushing over the civilian shields).

Both sides are pretty despicable in this conflict

It’s interesting that they call the Israeli government psychos and not those hiding behind civilians in a residential neighborhood… especially given that the letter behavior is specifically done to be able to make accusations of the former.

Security products of this nature need to be tight with the kernel in order to actually be effective (and prevent actual rootkits).

That said, the old mantra of “with great power” comes to mind…

I remember reading that having a version keyword in your user alias would cause issues with steam, and it was actually because it was a blocked word on CloudFlare where they store/pull a bunch of steam data from

Honestly I think it’s generally more of a bus driver issue, because it seems more tied to the motherboard than a given device

Yeah, I’ve had more than a few chipsets or periphs that worked on Windows, and worked on Linux but were… quirky, especially when dealing with stuff like suspend states etc.

For USB3 in particular, I’ve found many storage devices or adaptors like to drop out partway through an longer copy process on Linux (like they’ll be fine for copying a smaller amount of data, but the controller or device would reset during longer ones). This didn’t seem to occur in Windows, but I’m pretty sure the copy process was also slower so guessing it’s some sort of buffer or heat quirk that 'nix didn’t account for in the more generic driver

Yeah. I’ll admit I got a bit excited at the idea that Blackberry might consider entering the mini-computer market and make a pi-type device.

Yeah, was gonna say: it’s not just the competition, spams, scams, and trolls are a real issue.

I assume you meant raspberry pi-zero and not blackberry?

I’m kinda ok with a combination, like hey during the day run with mostly humans but at night supplement lack of staff when automation (so long as it’s safe)

I’m the big picture, maybe. On the other hand, there are plenty of cases where efficiency-per-size may be more important than price-per-efficiency given the available surface area to place a panel.

Not just that but that the “infotainment” system is getting further and further integrated with vehicle controls

A lot of this also comes back to asshole design, and EV’s can be particularly bad for this. Switching to large touch “entertainment” displays is a major issue. With my last ICE (Honda) vehicle, it was integrated into the backup+side cameras and a few comfort/convenience features. I could still replace that with a new head unit, though only certain ones would still support the cameras.

My wife’s EV (Hyundai) on the other hand, the console isn’t really made in a way where it seems swappable, and even if it was there are major system functions - such as configuring charge/power settings - which can only be configured from that (or the dogshyte app that screws up often and requires a paid subscription after 3yr)

I’d also wonder about a case against the company supplying the facial rec software/DB. Essentially they are fingering her as a criminal in a way that has a notable impact, which seems like a potential case for slander/libel to me (not sure what a “bad db entry” would fall under in this case).

a) you’d have to know who does it, and you might not until you (or somebody else) gets caught in the net b) boycotts are more effective if there’s choice, which there won’t be if mostly everybody starts using this shyte

There are other WinAmp-like apps - including ones that can use old WinAmp skins in classic now etc - such as QMMP or Audacious

A LOT are like that though. They just get you a smaller bill by sending power bank to the grid, rather than making you grid-independent.
