  • When was the last time an insect splash on your windshield?

    Jump

  • Probably well over two decades ago or so.

    That was the last time I owned a car.

  • I even have the measuring device

  • Yea we also used to do 500g, but over the years it has just (naturally?) gone down a bit.

  • This is hilarious to me. We make 400g for 2 (normal sized) people.

  • Godaddy is pissing me off. Which registrar is decent for selfhosters these days?

    Jump

  • Absolute zero issues with netcup (EU/de). Also comparatively cheap usually, and has frequent sales (always the same offers, afaict).

    DNS is included with Domains, but I'm using desec.io as my DNS mainly for full dnssec compliance (free, de based, if registrations are open, works with certbot DNS challenge for letsencrypt).

  • Flatpak is not perfect, but it's getting better

    Jump

  • I have no idea why you're being down voted. The whole thing with flatpacks is that they come from a large number of individuals, maybe the author of the software, but often not from a central organization you can trust. That's the fundamental difference to distro repos, who can just have a single anchor for trust.

    Mindlessly signing something doesn't increase security in any way. Then requiring it just means hassle to having to add keys to be trusted every time you want to install anything. Malicious actors can just create a key and sign the package as well. That's the whole reason it isn't required in the first place.

  • Depends on your date format. For it to be a problem to begin with, you need to use a date format with "/" as the separator. If it's 1st of Jan or Feb 1st then depends on the order.

    And of course you need to enter an actual fraction, instead of like 0.5. This also narrows down the locations where this is an issue considerably. I think it's mostly north America where fractions are more commonly used instead of decimals die to the imperial system, but there might be other places where it's common, too, and I just don't know about it.

  • If you open your mobile browser, what is the last viewed SFW tab open?

    Jump

  • Had this open for a while now as the most recent tab I didn't close. For the record there are 64 open tabs, this is just the most recent one.

    Was gonna look into analytics and monitoring of opnsense, and because if I bookmark it I just forget about it, there's a tab open. The other 63 tabs have a similar history...

  • I disagree with those saying that you can't do a build for that budget, but I would suggest looking into used parts, at least for some things, to improve the result significantly.

    Since your system goal doesn't seem to be storage related, as nextcloud includes storage obviously, but typically isn't used to house multi-terabyte data sets. So assuming you can make that work for the "future homelab projects" to with dual 500gig NVME as storage. Search for a used mITX board+CPU that can accommodate that (has the slots), and go from there. Things like CPU cooler, if not part of a possible mainboard+CPU bundle, should be selected after the case at that is the limiting factor for it. Didn't skimp on RAM size if you can (new or used is fine, depends what you can get in your area).

    With this list you're basically done to get it up and running.

  • I Believe RISC-V Will Come to the End-User Market Within the Next Few Years

    Jump

  • You still need base CPU speed for a system to be usable. Try running a modern GPU on a 10 year old CPU. It's even worse for some, where the GPU driver needs a relatively fast CPU for the GPU to run at full speed. Mostly Intel GPUs have this issue, which is sad cause they are the most affordable, but can't be paired with an just an affordable CPU (or an older one).

    And we're very far away with RISC-V from the kind of performance your need to run modern games, or even decade old games. Let alone fully utilizing a high end GPU.

  • Finally! I was waiting for a version of the original zimaboard with a modern/competitive processor. Such a versatile little device.

  • This is highly dependent on where you are, and your ISP. I get new IPs basically daily. Even my ipv6 prefix changes daily for no reason other than to be annoying I guess. It's infuriating, but somewhat convenient for privacy reasons (only).

  • Get your new PebbleOS watch

    Jump

  • I had no issue getting the app on my phone, but it wasn't really working anymore. I'd also have to swap the battery and reprint the buttons again. I'm just waiting for the new pebble now, it's only a few months now.

    Jump

  • I had to stop wearing my pebble 2 hr when the software became too flaky to tolerate. Notifications would just randomly Go through or not, media controls would sometimes not work, and so on. But can't wait to go back, as my alternatives are all fundamentally flawed.

  • That is not how trademarks work. They are purpose specific. I still have no idea why they would want to name it the same as an old processor, but I doubt it's actually an issue.

  • I remember reading about it in german media, but you can easily check the votes in the EU gparliament, as they are public. Specifically there's a nice list of how they voted on that particular issue here (english/reuters). Germany voted "against".

    Like @barsoap@lemm.ee wrote, the (german) articles mentions fears of "retribution" taxes by the chinese. And when these tarifs were announced/planned, china did immediately say they'd react accordingly (so it's no an unfounded fear). Another earlier article also mentions "expert opinions" that question benefit for the german car makers due to their large export volume to china (and at least some of them having plants in china making their vehicles, too).

    Now a very recent article from last week notes that the profit of VW-Group has dropped around 31% over last year, and a large part of that is coming from lower sales (and more competition) in China, as well as general restructuring costs. But I have absolutely no idea if the "reverse tariffs" are actually already in place by China, or just planned, or if they reverted their stance. It might also be that they just made independently bad decisions and this is just a consequence of that...

    Edit: corrected some nonsense, oops.
