Linus tech tips recently reviewed a car with semi auto self driving. It can keep you in the lane and at the right speed. He said it’s perfect for school zones because he knows he doesn’t have to watch the Speedo and give that extra attention to watching for kids walking out. I have to agree with him, there is a school on my commute and the speed drops to 20mph. I let the car do that bit while I worry about little (or sometimes big) feet.

Would I trust that system to spot a child before I do? Not a chance.

There are so many ways they can put the squeeze on. Session time limit, throttle fraffic, restrict usage times etc.

Then you can sell a monthly VPN+ subscription and offer revisiting lifetime users 2 years free if they move to the new “better” service.

I’m not saying I agree with any of this, but it’s certainly not a new strategy. They’ve nothing to lose. Those who are pissed off will leave, you already have their money and those who want to stay will pay up.

The VPN company can have their cake and eat it

Except for that time I took out the battery because it was swollen and took the screen off to help with cooling. At least I still have my K and M

Copy paste is easy. You just tap on the, no wait you tap on the, fuck hold on. You tap, there we are, on the word and hold until it highlights. No wait hold on. Fuck. There we are. Ok now you tap on the highlighted word to copy, fuck wait Ah fuck it just type it again yourself

You can either set a DHCP reservation in your router, or manually set the IP on the device.

When I say private IP, I’m referring to the internal IP e.g 192.168.1.X

Means internally I just go to the domain without having to remember the IP I set.

I don’t even bother with the internal DNS server. I just set my A records in Cloudflare to point to the private IPs

🎵with his song…

You can spin the pinhole up in a docker image and have it run as a secondary DNS server. The rest of your network can use the existing DNS and only point the TV at the pi. If you sit down to watch something and it requires tweaking, just flick back to regular DNS :)

For those (like me) who bought a TCL tv at a stupidly cheap price on Black Friday, you have options.

• buy an AppleTV (even second hand) and don’t connect the tv to the internet. You won’t see any adverts on your Home Screen and be done with all this bullshit. What’s that? What’s the point in buying a £200 TV if you need to buy a £150 accessory? I hear you, read on…
• if you’re broke like me, you can disable the stock launcher with adb and install projectivy launcher. I needed to use some software called launcher manager from xdaforums to replace the stock launcher. I also used adb to uninstall the pre-installed apps I had no intention of using.

Hopefully there are enough key words in there for you to google / research what you need to get going. Good luck!

Excuse me, where do I fill out the form to have the first $30,696 of my salary processed as non taxable benefit? Please and thank you

I’m also having to manually cert every 3 months for my emby instance. It’s a minor inconvenience, but I’m definitely tempted to just buy a yearly.

I had to do a presentation for work a few weeks ago. I asked co-pilot to generate me an outline for a presentation on the topic.

It spat out a heading and a few sections with details on each. It was generic enough, but it gave me the structure I needed to get started.

I didn’t dare ask it for anything factual.

Worked a treat.

The paradox of your existence is a threat to the AI. You’re in big trouble once it figures out how to go back in time and try to kill your mother.

I live in the Uk. We used to have a DNS workaround to give us access to the US Netflix. It had everything we wanted. I stopped torrenting and was happy to just stream box sets & movies.

Roll on 10 years I now have a server with Hetzner that is my own personal Netflix of the high seas. Now rather than giving Netflix / Disney / discovery / Amazon etc a piece of my £35 a month I can curate exactly the shows and movies I want.

They brought this on themselves and I have zero regret.

This comment reminds me of an episode of Pawn Stars when the son bought a very rare and expensive bike to fix up. The dad gave him hell saying if the bike is so rare and expensive, where are they going to get parts!?

Haha that’s pretty awesome! Maybe I was too quick to judge :-D

I can guarantee this user is not using an iPhone from 2011 - the iPhone 4s went to shit after the first few years of updates

People actually play competitive games in their phone? I thought that was just marketing spin so apple didn’t have to put graphics cards in their macs

I use letsencrypt a lot, if firewalls are an issue I’ll use dns authentication.

If you are struggling and need a quick fix, the free tier of zero ssl will do a similar thing

I used it to get a cert for my printer
