You can reduce transmit power and enable meshing and roaming in conjunction.


glassware was usually significantly above comparable eBay listings (despite the labels sometimes claiming otherwise)

They have stickers which tell you they’re cheaper than eBay when that’s actually not the case? Isn’t that illegal?



Installing Docker on a QNAP device is straightforward, thanks to the integrated Container Station application. Here’s how you can do it:

  1. Install Container Station: Log in to your QNAP device’s web interface (QTS), and open the App Center. Search for “Container Station” and install it.

  2. Enable SSH: If you need SSH access, go to the Control Panel > Telnet / SSH, and enable the “Allow SSH connection” option. Click “Apply” to save the changes.

  3. Create a Docker Container: Once Container Station is installed, you can create Docker containers using the Container Station user interface. Go to ‘Containers’, click ‘Create’, and select an image from the available registries.

  4. Configure Network Settings: Container Station supports multiple network modes and VLAN for flexible deployment. You can manage these settings according to your need.

  5. Manage Containers: After creating your Docker containers, you can manage them through the Container Station interface, where you can start, stop, and configure your containers as needed.

For detailed instructions and the latest updates, refer to the official QNAP Container Station guide. It provides comprehensive information on using Container Station, including creating, managing, and deploying Docker containers.


You should be able to run syncthing in docker on qnap. Which model and software version is it?

Keep in mind that sync is not a backup, neither is RAID.


If you do multiple passes you can alleviate some of the downsides of low bitrates. You can always easily spot it in dark areas. I despise watching space movies or shows on streaming services because of the resulting excessive banding artifacts.


I really really liked Limewire and Shareaza. That coupled with collection search would be awesome.


I would, if the game wouldn’t be so expensive 💀


I know how ML works, my comment was a persiflage on over-simplifying the topic of AI and logic. I originally marked it with an /s to indicate sarcasm, but I think this gets lost with newer generations, so now I replaced the /s with the upside down emoji (🙃) which also seems to indicate sarcasm.


an analog computer that the guy gave feedback to images on. If it’s a circle or a square, if it guesses right or wrong

That reminds me of the Square Hole Meme.


if you listen to marketing of companies using Machine Learning, AI can do everything right now.


yeah, they’re really in the wrong to think that we’d have some technical advancement within the last 40 years and we should expect more than a probabilistic text generator. 🙃


8bitdo controllers are good. They care about making good input devices.



Do yourself a favor and just get a regular second monitor.


You could simply create a sufficiently big dictionary of “if human says X respond with Y” and it would fool any person that its talking with a human with 0 intelligence behind it.

So, ChatGPT?


Embracer, Extend’er, Extinguish’er. I hardly know 'er.



Hope they also release another Little Inferno 😍

NO WAY; THEY PUT OUT A DLC LAST YEAR WHICH I MISSED!!! IT’S CALLED HO HO HOLIDAY AND CHRISTMAS THEMED!

you just throw stuff into the fire and read your mail. At some point it will become a story about capitalism, but I won’t spoil it here.


Tenet. I know, most people would be quick to dismiss this as a movie and a mediocre one at that.

Lol, you got me in the first half.


Sick. That excited me more than the GTA6 trailer. Hope they also release another Little Inferno 😍


How often do you change your tires?


Pay to pay games. Of course they fail, apart from when poor people play them in the hopes of making some pocket change. Most of them don’t even have gameplay outside of the monetization.


For me a single 2TB 2.5 inch external HDD in a shockproof case and a 1TB SSD contain all of my most important data (mostly scanned documents and personal media like photos, phone backups and letters). I have a Syncthing folder which syncs to my phone and is mirrored to the SSD once a week, while the HDD is used as a restic target. I don’t want to lug around 3kg of disks when my house is on fire, war breaks out or an axe murderer chases me.


eh, i didnt mention any offline hardware

Sorry if my comment came over as criticising your approach, I just wanted to add that information if someone wanted to use it. What I wanted to say is: if you have a NAS, you need to have reliable cold storage which is not SSDs.

12 drives in the go bag seems a bit much, as I don’t think the weight to usefulness ratio would be great if you really needed to leave the house in an emergency.


Contrary to what people suggested, I would advise against optical discs or tapes and would go with HDDs you check every few months. They don’t rot like optical media, the only thing you have to worry about are the motor spindles getting stuck and other mechanical failures.

It will also be the cheapest option. With tapes you need expensive drives and they change the version every few years. Tapes only are better if you store hundreds or thousands of TiB of data.

Which data so you want to save? Mostly games and media? If so, consider giving them to your friends and family to copy and enjoy, which some people call a ‘friend backup’.


SSDs need to be powered periodically to not lose bits to the cells losing trapped electrons. For offline storage HDDs are a better option.


Always burn data at lower speeds too, less errors.

Doesn’t help the fact that the discs degrade over time.


on two completely different systems, one of which is an HP prebuilt desktop and the other a custom made one, when it worked flawlessly before and just suddenly stopped working with Kernel 6.1? Even if that’s an ACPI fuckup by the manufacturer, they seem to have patched out the Kernel’s mitigations for it.


Yes but I don’t want to waste hours when my brain can’t solve it in a few minutes if it’s not the core gameplay (like with The Witness or Talos Principle). For example with Zelda BotW I looked up a solution to one or two of the shrines because I took half an hour and still didn’t figure out the (very simple) solution.



I didn’t think it was even possible. Elon Musk truly is one of a kind. He can do anything!


That’s why after dying 3-4x I will do a quick research on how to die less. There’s a limit to my trial and error in games.


We’re truly in the post-1984 era.

We’re not even completely in the 1984 era yet. Read Cory Doctorow’s Little Brother and Sybille Berg’s GRM. Brainfuck and RCE – Remote Code Execution. If you want to know how a post-1984 era would really look like, Serverland by Josefine Rieks portrays it in a realistic way.

tl;dr: People don’t care until it’s too late, but it will all collapse anyway.



it’s going to make things very difficult as my character will be super weak.

Who cares? That’s a challenge.


Do you guys really spend hours of your day just researching on the internet how to play these games? Or do you just jump in and wing it?

I jump in, wing it and if I don’t know how stuff works I quickly search it in the game’s wiki or guide. Time spent figuring out how stuff works by trial and error is time I could play the game instead.


Well, two of my Arch Linux desktops recently don’t like to shut down but reboot instead. What gives?


Counter Strike 2 has recently been released. Valorant and Overwatch also seems to fit the description.
