Major version changes for any software from the OS right down to a simple notepad app should update as sequentially as possible (11>12>13>etc). Skipping over versions is just asking for trouble, as it’s rarely tested throughly.

It might work, but why risk it.

An example: if 12 makes a big database change but you skip over that version, 13 may not recognize the databases left by 11 because 12 had the code to recognize and reformat the old database while that code was seen as unnecessary and removed from 13.

Stuff like this is also why you can’t always revert to an older version while keeping the data/databases from the newer software.

‘Ignorance is bliss’…

You know that thing that you don’t have? You should press buttons on it.

Fuck you computer…

Prison slang for ‘Child Molester’.

Or a local library and $0.10

Good, because the citizens certainly are.

Went to the grocery store the other day; the ice-cream isle had new ‘made in canada’ labels on Canadian brands. Most of them were 5-10% more expensive than others.

It was ALL sold out. The rest of the brands were just sitting on the shelves.

Not sure if just ‘haha tech-rhyme, using common error message’ or deeper:

Connection reset by peer = Other party ended the conversation. Immediately after you’d stated you’re queer…

I use cloudflared to translate DNS into DNS over TLS instead of Unbound to make it into recursive DNS. Just never really seen the need to switch it. I’m happy with nextDNS + Cloudflare resolving DNS upstream.

The main thing I wanted to note is port 53 outbound is blocked at the router to prevent devices from using external/unencrypted DNS. If a LAN device wants DNS resolution they MUST use the LAN DNS servers they were given via DHCP, or use their own DoT config, as plain DNS won’t make it out of the network.

It’s because of this block/enforcement that I run two local DNS servers: pihole on an RPI and a mirror on my main server tower, with Galaxy-Sync keeping them identical. If I tinker with/update one, the other picks up the slack so connectivity/resolution isn’t disrupted.

10 years after you hang that orange Turd we might think about it. Until then fuck off.

TBF, if you ask for power delivery in an unsafe manner, the PSU should say ‘no’…

GPUs shouldn’t be requesting power unsafely, that’s definitely something they should address as well; but the PSU shouldn’t be able/willing to comply either.

If you’ve got an nvidia gpu+drivers installed, you’ve probably got ‘nvidia-smi’ already which will show you utilization and which processes are using it.

Glued on panels and a skeleton like Swiss cheese.

I wonder how quickly you could break into one with your bare hands. Just rip a panel off and reach into the interior to open.

He never defined how short ‘short’ is. He also never said you’d be able to use it for anything else after, lol

It’s google; their entire business is built on fucking you out of your personal data. Once they have it, they will never let go.

Until a highly scrutinized third party audit proves otherwise; I doubt even GDPR removal requests are complied with internally. They might stop telling you they have the data, but thetly won’t actually get rid of it.

There’s a lot of stupid shit that voids the warranty.

For example; using the built in power inverter, which is advertised as a power station for camping/work sites, to power anything at all while stationary, voids the batteries warranty.

Go fuck yourself with a flaming lithium dildo Tesla.

You don’t. You ship it and see what the bill is when it hits the border.

It’s part of why companies are halting shipments. You can try to guess what the upcharge(s) will be at the border(s) and pass that to the customer; but if you get it wrong (or it changes mid-transit), you’re either charging your customers excessively, driving them off, or you’re eating additional costs yourself.

Yeah; no video games should ever have unrestricted access to the entire system. ESPECIALLY anything with multiplayer.

Any developer that applies a rootkit (kernal anti-cheat) to their games should be shunned out of existence.

It’s incredible how well steams compatibility software (Proton) works nowadays; 99% of games I’ve tried, even when explicitly listed as ‘windows only’ work great once you force-enable compatibility.

And this shit is why your garbage OS is no longer permitted on my sysyems. Fuck off Microshaft.
