I just carry my laptop with me while walking around during meetings.
Not necessarily if you’re the one walking in with the DC++ server. Getting that thing up and running was suddenly priority #1 for the entire floor.
Walk in, press on button, hang up jacket and get stuff out of bag, type in password, grab coffee.
That’s a pretty common morning pattern I see.
I've borrowed a top spec Audi A6 from 2004 for a bit last year and that had adaptive cruise control as well. Honestly if not for the infotainment GUI, which felt very "spy kids", it would have passed for a ~2020 car as well feature wise.
The amount of reference material it has is also a big influence. I've had to pick up PLC programming a while ago (codesys/structured text, which is kinda based on pascal). While chatgpt understands the syntax it has absolutely no clue about libraries and platform limitations so it keeps hallucinating those based on popular ones in other languages.
Still a great tool to have it fill out things like I/O mappings and the sorts. Just need to give it some examples to work with first.
Playtests typically involves a full on NDA for this reason. If your playtest is aimed at creators that are allowed to stream it's not a playtest, it's a marketing exercise.
Oh I switched jobs, so not switch as in migrate.
The industry I work in now is very conservative, so Microsoft is a brand people know and "trust". Amazon is scary and new.
As someone who recently switched from AWS to Azure I feel your pain.
Best part is when you finally have a working solution, Microsoft sends you an email that it's being deprecated.
If it's only you (or your household) that is accessing the services then something like hosting a tailscale VPN is a relatively user friendly and safe way to set-up remote access.
If not, then you'd probably want to either use the aforementioned Cloudflare tunnels, or set up a reverse proxy container (nginx proxy manager is quite nice for this as it also handles certs and stuff for you). Then port forward ports 80 and 443 to the server (or container if you give it a separate IP). This can be done in your router.
In terms of domain set-up. I've always found subdomains (homeassistant.domain.com) to be way less of a hassle compared to directories (domain.com/homeassistant) since the latter may need additional config on the application end.
Get a cheap domain at like Cloudflare and use CNAME records that point domain.com and *.domain.com to your dyndns host. Iirc there's also some routers/containers that can do ddns with Cloudflare directly, so that might be worth a quick check too.
Kinda the same thing as winrar. They rather have consumers get used to it so the companies they work at have a higher chance of buying licenses. That's where the real money is.
Guess I'm a bit too young for that still lol. We got a pair of ISDN2 lines in 1994 (so technically also 256k lol) at home, but I was too young to remember that. With cable internet coming in 97, that was technically still slower than bonded isdn at the very start.
In a way I was very privileged growing up when it came to Internet. My dad's company at the time paid good money to get all the latest (often testing phase) stuff to his house in return for being available 24/7.
Talking about Lan uplinks, in the early 2010's I had the joy of working with a 20gb uplink at a small university LAN (the sysadmin got a good amount of free pizza and beers for that one). I spent a large amount of my savings on a 10gb NIC only to find out my hard drive couldn't keep up lol.
Didn't some company have a script running that would randomly kill stuff to always test redundancies?
I vaguely recall someone telling me that about netflix
HEVC actually requires a $1 license you can get from the ms store. It's a royalty thing. OEMs often ship PCs with that license already enabled.
There are more applications than just windows Media Player that won't play hevc files/streams without that license installed.
VLC doesn't really seem to care about those things though and it's better than the default anyways.

Teams not working at all is already way better in my opinion
