My car does this automatically. If you floor it, the vents start blowing hot air.

It does make me wonder how much it really helps.

Not important, but in case you didn’t know – In that usage the word is ‘eke’. ‘Eek!’ is the sound you make when someone jumps out from a closet wearing a spider mask.

Same, though I also enjoyed guayadeque for a period.

No operating system meets those criteria, open source or commercial.

We need to find a new way to hate on stupid vehicles without body shaming.

The guys with small dicks never did anything wrong. I’m sure some of those truck drivers have massive cannons the diameter of a coke can, but that doesn’t excuse their stupid wasteful vanity machines.

Yep. Half my ram as level one, and then a 500gb SSD as L2.

Definitely more than I need for the L2 as the hit rate is only 15% (vs 99% for ARC), but I don’t think there’s much of a downside to slightly over-sizing it these days (there used to be, but L2 is more ram-efficient now).

Not who you responded to, but I have a similar setup using ZFS.

6 drives in raid 6, and then an SSD cache.

The OP doesn’t, but the REST API Docs say:

Your consumer can query the API on its own, and download 5 subtitles per IP’s per 24 hours, but a user must be authenticated to download more. Users will then be able to download as many subtitles as their ranks allows, from 10 as simple signed up user, to 1000 for VIP user.

Though that’s not fully ‘unauthenticated’, as the above is discussing the use of a developer API key. Though that would be built into whatever app is being used.

Complete opposite here. Typing this on an iPhone 8, and I’ve never retired a phone sooner than 4 years. Usually I give up around 6 due to lack of updates becoming a problem.

A longer support cycle would definitely sway my purchase decision.

Edit: though I am the type to replace batteries, buttons and screens myself as necessary

I have it posted for free on the classifieds in hopes it will disappear.

I bet it will. I managed to sell a few for $40 a piece a couple years back.

I had extras because the kits that included a hub were cheaper than the bare bulbs.

For sure. Nothing will ever be as reliable as writing the image to usb/cd/floppy.

The cheaper option would be to set up an ad-hoc tv-to-tv network. You might not let your TV talk to the internet, but I bet your neighbour does, or if not, then their neighbour will.

Monitors are effectively always in ‘filmmaker mode’, as they don’t do frame interpolation and colour grading and over-scanning and all the stuff that filmmaker mode disables.

Have you tried in the past few years? They basically don’t exist anymore in the consumer space.

Not to be argumentative, but in case you’re interested:

According to the ventoy site it supports those images, though openwrt requires a plugin and freedos seems to require using memdisk mode, though I’m less clear on the limitations there.

Ventoy is the easier answer these days IMO. Just drop ISOs on your Ventoy’d usb key and choose them from a menu at boot time.

lol yeah, I remember installing Beryl on my laptop to show off the wild desktop effects at university.

got a lot of attention, but not many people interested in linux in the long ron

Worst case of this solution is you might have to wait before watching your video. It wouldn’t be unreasonable for google to refuse to send you the video until $ad_duration has elapsed.

Still beats watching ads though. I could queue up a bunch in a “watch later” playlist and have a program get them all ready for me.

Correction: Using NVidia GPU on openSUSE experience

How are you installing apps?

Can you give an example of the issues you had with a specific app?
