Haven't tried yet, what exactly can this do? just downloads the pictures? or more? Can it also download the metadata like tags? Does it provide a webinterface to browse and search downloaded galleries? IMO the perfect tool would provide it's own webUI and then transparently proxy E-H using my account, downloading and saving all viewed galleries in it's own database.

It is likely that if LaKeith had been tried as a juvenile and/or tried appropriately for the burglary, he would be free today.

Are we assuming this is a good thing. He broke into a home with a gunman ready to murder the occupant. What sort of man is he now?

This alone is absolutely insane to me. Where I am from, if you're under 18 there is no option to be tried as an adult, even 20 year olds can be tried as an adolescent here.

I am really confused about this meme template, didn't its usage used to be satirical (not sure if that's the right word)? I remember seeing ones like "Nobody ever needed maths", but recently I am seeing them inverted where the subject matter is actually criticised for being useless. Instead of claiming something useful to be useless. Can someone explain? when did the usage shift?

I didn't even know this existed until a few years ago. The original version isn't sold in my country, even though there are like 10 different varieties of Listerine available in stores.

I try to use FOSS as much as possible, but I am not willing to give up video games, so I do have steam installed. I also need discord for communication with friends I am playing with. I only use these two on my desktop computer. On my laptop I don't have any proprietary software running in userspace, but of course it still has proprietary firmware blobs and proprietary UEFI firmware. I also have an old Thinkpad X220 running coreboot and with ME disabled (HAP bit set, ME technically still runs, but halts after hardware initialization) and unnecessary ME components stripped using me_cleaner. And my home server also runs coreboot with ME "disabled" and stripped but it has a BMC with proprietary supermicro firmware and an LSI HBA that also requires firmware.

It's just the easiest way to do this. Memory training is a very early step in the boot process. Firmware only has the CPU cache available as memory and most hardware in the system isn't initialized yet. Most of this isn't even done by the UEFI firmware itself, but by calling a binary blob provided by the CPU manufacturer, for intel it is called FSP and AMD i believe it is AGESA. I'd have to check, but I believe at the point memory training is running the PCIe bus has not even been brought up and scanned, so video output in this phase would require extensive reengineering of the early boot process from both the CPU manufacturer, firmware vendors and the board manufacturer. PCIe has DMA so making that work without memory might be a challenge. There are three easy to implement solutions though: post codes if your mainboard has a display for them, serial output if the board has a serial port (though this needs another device to read the messages) and the cheapest solution could be a flashing LED on the board labeled memory training in progress.

In the long run a PC will probably more expensive though, because it uses more electricity than a specialized embedded device. A specialized router is probably worth it if you stick with it for a while, at 10G there is little reason to upgrade.

Yeah it's a huge source of problems. If you are outside the US your IPv6 prefix is never gonna be correct in every GeoIP database, even if you send a request to have it corrected, so you sometimes get geoblocked and other sites just block you because it sometimes gets classified as VPN.

Uff, es scheint so als ob ihr noch keine dieser Domains registriert habt. mMn eine sehr schlechte Idee dann so eine Umfrage zu starten, irgendjemand wird sich den meist hochgewählten Kandidaten vor Ende der Umfrage schnappen. Grade bei .eu für nur 5€ im erstem Jahr und .org für 10€ wird es sicherlich innerhalb kürzester Zeit jemanden geben dem es diese paar Euro wert ist euch den Spaß zu verderben.

 

What do you guys think about DD2? I love watching my favorite streamers fall again and again, but I probably won't try it myself. I couldn't even get past the first few obstacles on deep dip 1.

So do you people either watch others play it, play it yourself or do you prefer normal tracks?

"Giga"Zuhause mit 100mbit/s ist ja schon Witz genug. Wenn sie es Giga nennen sollte meiner Meinung nach auch Giga drin sein.
