It's not quite there for desktop use yet, but it probably won't be too much longer.

I've never had LibreOffice crash my computer. Sure, it crashes occasionally, but it never takes anything else with it.

If you're putting enough stuff into a spreadsheet to crash it, it's time to move to a real database.

If you don't release your source code due to security concerns, you just announced to the world that your software is vulnerable and you're relying on security through obscurity.

In the the Puget Sound area, there is HamWAN. It's a high speed 5.8GHz network that uses Mikrotik WiFi radios connected to high gain antennas. Make sure you get the international version, the US version will not work on the frequencies used by HamWAN.

To use secure boot correctly, you need disable or delete the keys that come preinstalled and add your own keys. Then you have to sign the kernel and any drivers yourself. It is possible to automate the signing the kernel and kernel modules though. Just make sure the private key is kept secure. If someone else gets a hold of it, they can create code that your computer will trust.

They don't need enough workers to watch every video uploaded, they only need enough to review copyright claims.

They should get rid of the copyright claim system since it gets badly abused and just use DCMA since it's illegal to file a false DCMA claim.

Some Lemmy instances disallow indexing in robots.txt, however indexers can choose to ignore that and actually blocking them takes a lot more effort.

Oh nice, maybe I will get a check for less than the cost to mail it in 5 years.

It seems like it's mostly just bots left there now.

It's best to install yt-dlp manually and let it self update. It needs to be kept on the latest version since youtube is constantly breaking things. It's only a single file and it can be installed in any directory in your $PATH.

Hopefully that would get a lot of developers to switch to Vulkan.

That would be great for a server, but 1.7GHz is a bit slow for a desktop.

 

I picked this little scope up from the Seapac swap meet a week and a half ago for $3. It turns out that all it needed was some contact cleaner to get it working again.

This is a portable scope that can run from 12V DC as well as an internal battery. I don't have the battery for it, but I could probably put some 18650's in there if I disable the built in charger.
