That's a funny way to spell "hang".
So... parallel reconstruction gets another workout.
Anime artists are unfamiliar with firearms?
Inconceivable.
I had a nephew that found out he could get a $500 bursary for trade school as a male, or $5000 as a female. A trip down to the DMV netted him (her) $4500.
Can't say I wasn't amused.
I have no issue with corporate funding. I have an issue when a company gets to make all the decisions. Lot of good software has gone to hell when the shareholders need profit now instead of seeing a long term vision.
We'll see, but I've been around this rodeo enough to just avoid it from the start and take some pain now instead of putting in effort that's going to be wasted later.
2023, I remember the announcement last year. Not sure where you're getting 2014 from, that was even before NC split off.
What puts me off of Owncloud is the new ownership. I couldn't care less if it's written in the blood of Christ, if I have to worry about the rug getting pulled out from under me for self-hosting, it's a no-go for me, Joe.
Nextcloud works well for me and has for years. The people that don't like it can go use this, and we'll see you back in a couple of years when it goes open-core or worse.
If you can cool the garage, insulating the ceiling will help. Even if you run a fan to pull in cool air at night and then try to hold it in, it'll help.
I've built several printers from the original RepRap to a Wilson II and a Deltabot. Some of those plans are probably getting on in age. There was a time you couldn't buy a printer for the cost of building a reprap; those days are long gone. An Ender or similiar are so cheap and good now, it's hard to build one of similiar quality. But if you're just looking for a project, fill your boots.
Well, lord knows we wouldn't want anyone except the DNC leadership unilaterally choosing the candidate. When has that ever gone badly?
More chins than a Chinese phone book.
Not anymore. They completely divested that off to having to get RPM Fusion repos set up and then manually install the codecs.
As another user said, Nobara does all this, and I use Nobara myself. But Fedora itself has made all that harder.
FWIW, +1 for Nobara. I think it's an excellent turnkey Fedora for most purposes. But it's a little chancy on being dependent on a single maintainer.
But Fedora itself isn't noob friendly when you have to figure out how to add the non-free repos and install all the rest of the shit. Nobara takes care of that well.
Probably depends on the ISP, but I just have 2 nics in each server, and eth1 on both is on a switch to the cable modem. If one goes down, the other comes up fine. Can't recall if I spoofed the same MAC on the OPNsense VMs.
VMs under KVM are pretty much bare metal and Proxmox doesn't use much for resources itself, it's basically a headless Debian with a webserver interface to do all the KVM stuff.
Proxmox, especially if you use ZFS for the VM datastore, makes a home lab so much easier to revert, backup and deploy/clone VMs and LXCs. I highly recommend it if you're just starting out. Once you wrap your head around it, it gets out of the way and lets you just tinker with your projects, and not have to manually do everything in VirtManager or at the command line.
Combined with Proxmox Backup Server, it's a production ready hypervisor for anything you decide to keep. Also, the HA features work well enough that I had my main routing OPNsense VM jump between nodes when the primary node lost a drive, and I didn't notice for a week, it was that seamless.
If you want to lose most of your tooling and community support, Podman is a great way to go.

This guy has 3M subs and doesn't take free samples for reviews. I think he's doing OK, and damn, if you want a detailed comparison of something, he's the guy. He's branched away from the mainly mechanic oriented stuff recently, but still staying unbought.
I cleared my cache recently, maybe there was a cookie in there that isn't being created in later versions?
Didn't realize there was a /c/, I'll post in there or create a github bug.
Thanks.
Edit: hooboy, 7 mo ago is last post, I think I see where that's going to go.
If I bring up things like mail or a post in a new tab, I have to go into Login/Manage Accounts and choose my account to do anything in that tab.
I'm trying to figure out how long to make A and B here if I have linear actuator of length C (extended = 2C) in order to tilt my panels from completely horizontal to vertical so they avoid wind and shed snow respectively when I run up the actuator to the extremes respectively based on sensor input.
Is there a simple formula I can use to plug the length of whatever actuator I settle on to figure A and B out? I know it will have to be a certain minimum and maximum size to work properly and might have to experiment to get an idea of what works in the end, but I'd like a reasonable start point to purchase an appropriate actuator.
I've googled around and decided I'm not smart enough to even come up with the right search criteria, let alone figure this out myself since it's been 35 years since I've used anything except the most basic trig.
This isn't really homework except for the fact that I'm trying to make my home work right.
Edit: seems like if I select A=.75C and solve for B at horizontal, then it always works out. No idea why, but the couple examples I try seem to agree.
I'm looking for a lowish priced laptop that I can put at least 2 extra monitors on. I want a second landscape 4k and a portrait 1080. Don't need anything special. One monitor has DP and HDMI, but the other just HDMI. Do I just get a DP hub and use a converter dongle for the second?
What would be a recommended laptop for this scenario? I only want AMD CPU and GPU as I can't be arsed to fight with noVideo and Intel doesn't deserve my business.
I have no idea how long this has been a thing, and maybe every clipboard works that way, not just Plasma, and I never realized it. It also lets you do things like Rt-click on it and do the regular operations like Search in Firefox. Spaces aren't preserved unless you specifically select them but search engines seem to be able to sort out the words usually.
I post this in case you haven't been part of the 10,000 this day already, like me.
Edit: seems to work in Firefox and LibreOffice, but not Kate or Okular. I'd love to see this as a general feature, it's handy as heck.
A home automation and tech enthusiast stumbled upon the anomaly while troubleshooting issues with his home network.

Looks expensive. The grey ones are the broken ones.
Vernor Vinge, author of many influential hard science fiction works, died March 20 at the age of 79. Vinge sold his first science-fiction story in 1964, "Apartness", which appeared in the June 1965 issue of New Worlds. In 1971, he received a PhD (Math) from UCSD, and the next year began teaching at ...
Thank you for the great work, Vernor. You'll be missed.
We have our house and a cabin. While I guess I could make an area for the cabin, it has it's own areas that I'd like to manage separately (and copy automations directly).
I have purchased a HA Cloud sub but I don't seem to be able to get the cabin to connect to Cloud.
Do I need a separate sub for the cabin at full price? This seems a little over the top, not to mention clunky to manage with different Nabu Casa logins.
Or am I just going about this wrong? If anyone else manages two properties and integrates it nicely, I'd love to hear your solutions. I'm mainly subbing to Cloud because of the better TTS and STT response. Maybe I just invest in a skookum whisper/piper box instead?
I don't see that there's any sort of integration for writing code to process information from HA entities like Node Red + Companion. Am I missing something and this is more than just an interface for the config files and maybe a git client for those config files?
These things aren't bad, I've got a few that I use sort of successfully, but the speaker and mic aren't very powerful. I was thinking of building one with an ESP32 and i2S (not i2c, that threw me off too) speaker/mic, but I'm wondering if I'd be reinventing the wheel here if there's a better alternative already out there.
Got a young guy that needs a reasonable used laptop, in the $2-300 range. Looking for smooth but not spectacular graphics, and a 15" screen or better. Preferably with 2 drive slots so he can have an NVME or other SSD for the OS and a large rust drive for installing games. It's going to be plugged in when used, and weight isn't a great concern, it's just for travelling with.
Any suggestions on what to look for on eBay?
If I pipe in something to most
that's wider than my terminal width, it'll page it sideways but only single character at a time with an arrow key. I want most
to behave like less
, which will scroll sideways with an arrow key almost a full page (60 columns I believe), which most
will do also if I use Tab/Ctrl-B or ">" and "<" (as gleaned from the man page). But I have no use for single character scrolling, so I'd like arrows to do the same as Tab and <>.
Is there a way to change the default behaviour of most
to the same horizontal scrolling behaviour as less
? I would just use less
except it displays the first page of a command like docker ps
with lines wrapped for some reason (maybe this is some limitation in Dolphin?). If I scroll right the other columns show up right, but for some reason less
and more
both mess up the first page. No clue why most
works correctly. Frankly, if I could fix less
I'd be happier since my muscle memory makes me want to pipe to less
all the time anyway, and it's installed by default in most distros I use, unlike most
.
Also, trying to search up help on anything with a name like "most" is next to impossible.
I did send a donation, but I want to make sure the people involved know I appreciates them.
I set up an instance and have been using it along with a couple friends. It's fast, private and doesn't have a bunch of algo bullshit wasting our time. I have my subs and I watch them, and then I go and touch grass because I'm not sitting there watching trash that is being pushed at me on the feed.
It's like a breath of fresh air.

I have been keeping an eye on this series over in !BannedBooks@literature.cafe and was intending to link the discussions for SF titles that I saw. The Handmaid's Tale is definitely an SF title that has seen it's share of fans and detractors. It has been banned or attempted to be banned in many jurisdictions including Western ones.
What is the communities thoughts on this book, does it unfairly extend Christian philosophy into questionable territory or does it not go far enough? Is it pornography, and if so, why? Let's hear your thoughts.

Despite their scarcity, science fiction books are highly sought after by elementary school students.
![Sci-fi books are rare in school even though they help kids better understand science](https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/99eb66bf-e24f-471e-a67f-3f74d7f36147.jpeg?format=webp&thumbnail=256)
I got interested in SF because the librarian in my elementary was a SF lover. There were racks of paperbacks that I gobbled up and it's stuck with me for decades since. It makes me sad to think that kids don't have the same chance I did to get interested at an early age in the most imaginative genre of fiction. We all need to do our part to pass it on.
What are your suggestions for getting young people interested in science fiction?
A few I remember from that time:
Edgar Rice Burroughs Barsoom series
Heinlein's juveniles like Podkayne of Mars and Have Spacesuit, Will Travel
McCaffery's Dragonriders of Pern
Niven's Known Space books
Because having to block 2 fanaticus communities every time a game is finished because there's a post in the winning and losing teams community is rapidly getting old, and I have no idea how many teams of how many different sports exist on that server, but it seems like a hell of a lot.
Having set up a couple of communities, there is a setting for language. Are these items showing up in my feed because the community has not set their language, or is something going on with language filtering on All? It seems like there's way more off-language things coming through on All in the last day or two.

Was there some sort of assurance that nothing was going to happen when the contract expired, and this expectation was changed? Freenom hasn't been registering domains since Jan 1.
It's seeming a little odd to me that this is catching people with their pants down.
