  • Several of the software jobs I had offered "unlimited" PTO, where as long as your shit was done, you could take off as much as you liked. Of course, that meant that they didn't have to pay out your remaining days when you left, but it was a good reason to stay.

    Yeah this guy is either a troll or an idiot.

  • I work there and I have to stop myself from drinking one constantly, because it's like a dollar after the employee discount.

  • They have it at Micro Center if you live near one.

  • If someone tried to call a jazz band classical, I'd be similarly annoyed with them. It's not metal because it doesn't have any of the hallmarks of the genre and doesn't sound like metal. And no, that doesn't mean they're doing something new and groundbreaking. It means they're calling themselves the wrong thing.

  • A good IDE makes it unnecessary to scroll back and forth like that, though.

  • And now Tim Curry, too.

  • There's plenty of technical reasons. For instance, KDE implements the Wayland extension that allows for global push-to-talk in voice chat applications, while gnome doesn't.

  • I switch back and forth based on which one has the smallest number of annoying bugs. Right now, I'm on KDE because they finally fixed a long-standing refresh rate bug, and because gnome has serious trouble keeping the mouse clamped to the right screen in UE5 games without the assistance of gamescope

  • No. You're only allowed to have Armored Core.

  • It's not fat, it's insulation.

  • Meh, I've been trying to get rid of that thing for ages anyway. Taint all it's cracked up to be.

  • I would say that finding that balance is up to the individual admin and application, really, which is where the defense in depth comes in. Yeah, it's rare, and if those exploits are being used it means you've got the attention of someone you probably can't really stop, but it's something to take into consideration. Bad configs can cause data leakage across container boundaries, too, so without knowing the admin's skill level, I tend to recommend against sharing that hardware with something that might have something valuable on it. AI has made it easier for script kiddies to find zero-days and exploit APT-level vulnerabilities, too.

  • It masks the registration info, but it can't mask the IP by definition, and that can still be traced back to you.

  • It's not about the container escape so much as the potential for someone to do a DNS lookup on your domain name and use that to locate you physically. Yes, it's coarse location data, but someone on 4chan was able to locate Shia LaBoeuf from a single picture of a flagpole. It doesn't take much.

  • I would NOT host a Lemmy instance at home unless you're going to obfuscate your IP address. If you make it public, you're inviting any whackjob that sees your username to find your physical location. Additionally, I wouldn't host it on a PC that you actually intend to use for day to day stuff, just in case the instance gets hacked and someone manages to escape the container it's in. If you wanted to do this, I would put it on its own box with Cloudflare in front of it, otherwise you're inviting trouble where there doesn't need to be any.

  • The PS5 in particular uses GDDR instead of standard DDR for its system RAM, so rather than making the iGPU use lower-bandwidth memory, it gets to use the same stuff a dedicated one does.

  • Linux @programming.dev

    What's Debian going to name their releases after when they run out of Toy Story characters?

  • Cooking @lemmy.world

    Couldn't sleep, so I made blush Alfredo sauce with langostino tails

  • Cooking @lemmy.world

    Made some beef stew in the Instant Pot. I'm definitely part of the cult now.
