I'm fairly certain something like that has already happened with Canadian Airlines. A person asked about bereavement travel and the AI chat bot claimed one thing and the company refused to honor it. IIRC, the court said the company had to abide by what the chatbot said.

Jesus Gary Oldman is in everything and I love it. Has the man won an Oscar yet?

Listen buddy. Plastic dinosaurs can be scary - really scary.

See, this is 4th dimensional chess. Trump knows that Bidens deal would be bad for Palestine and only Trump can get a better one. So akshually this is a good thing. /s

Even if you can't lift the handle up , the door can probably be shimmed from the inside - especially if the latch plate is improperly sized.

I'm not seeing any replies that are super helpful for your question - so here's what I do: throw a Linux desktop on a Raspberry Pi, or NUC and use the TV like monitor. Get a wireless keyboard/mouse combo and watch Plex through the appimage or just Firefox. Bonus, now any website that does video can be viewed on your big screen tv without dealing with any casting apps.

I absolutely adored the LCM - it was a highlight of every trip to Seattle. Being able to play Oregon Trail onan Apple IIc, interfacing with punch cards, it was a delight. I had no idea that the whole thing was shutdown on 2020.

Man, the Republicans have done it again! This Biden fellow sounds like bad news, I don't think I'll be voting for him in November. /s

On a more serious note, was shitting on Biden their only strategy to get Trump reelected? 100% of their effort seems to have gone towards smearing Biden, but now that Kamala has entered the race they cannot pivot at all. (Not that I want them to pivot, please by all means, continue to beat a dead horse)

“I can remember this as a young man, when we were arguing about whether or not we should be required to wear seat belts, or if we should wear seat belts,” Robinson continues. “And I can always remember there’d be one person to say, ‘Well, what if I get stuck on a railroad tracks and my seat belt won’t come off?’ Number one, if you are stuck on the train tracks, that is Darwin. That’s not any of my concern. That is Darwin. You saw those train tracks. If you couldn’t get past them, I cannot help you.”

He concludes: “That is not a good argument, see, because in this country, we’re not talking about a bunch of people who go down to the abortion place because they’ve been raped or because they’ve been a victim of incest. We’re talking about a culture that we have created in this society that tells you when you want to feel good, go in there and go lay down and do your thing. If you get in a little trouble, it’s alright to murder somebody to get out of it. It is not — it is not okay.”

First off, this is some sort of logical fallacy here - straw man maybe?

Secondly, isn't wearing a seatbelt now something that conservatives are railing against again?

This is the correct answer. Private IPs are less concerning (on noes now someone knows a network in my homelab is 10.0.0.1/24!) - but absolutely change public IPs in logs.

If it's necessary to reference external users/systems in multiple log files, I'll change the names to user1, user2, server1, db2, etc

Absolutely! My FIL always talks about how much we must hate the student loan forgiveness stuff seeing as we've paid off loans for the better part of 20 years - and I just don't get it.

Yeah, pinching pennies and saving like crazy for a house was not fun, but why would I make someone else go through that if they didn't have to?

Make things better for those who follow us.

 

I've been running Viewtube in my homelab for my family after the actual YouTube started misbehaving. Was it because I use Firefox? DNS adblock? Unlock origin? Who knows!

I absolutely love that with Viewtube I can make the front page only my subscriptions. It seems to be relatively low on resource usage as well.

But lately, the lack of features is starting to get to me - namely closed captions and "Add to queue".

Are there any other self hosted options that are more feature rich in this regard?

I've been quite happy with my Steam Deck - both as a gaming console and as a secondary computer when it's docked, but for newer titles I picked up a Rog Zephyrus M16 (2023) last year.

Now that Windows is going off the deep end with AI, I'm looking to dual boot/trial Linux on this laptop with the goal to give Microsoft the boot.

It's a beefy laptop:

  • 13th Gen i9-13900
  • 32GB Memory
  • NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070
  • 1TB NVMe (Windows)
  • 2TB NVMe (Linux)

I added the second drive to avoid any issues with dual-booting with Grub/Windows Bootloader - instead making the Linux device the primary boot device and spamming Esc if I want to change to the Windows drive.

For distributions, I'm most familiar with Debian/Ubuntu - it's the daily driver for my work laptop, and the vast majority of my home lab VMs are Ubuntu. With the Steam Deck, I started to get more into Arch with the Steam Deck, and now it's the OS of choice for my HTPCs for simple streaming/Plex media player. I've also messed around with ZorinOS (basically a fancy skinned Ubuntu).

I need some advice on what to throw on this laptop - and some suggestions on how to squeeze the best performance out of this (Optimus vs. Proprietary NVIDIA vs. Open source drivers).

Almost all of my own padlocks have been picked, save for just two, the ABUS 64TI/40 and the Master lock LOTO. Still relatively new to the tubular lock game, so the yellow Urban bike disk brake lock as also eluded me.

I found getting the two cut away locks helped immensely - the American helped me really hone in on how over setting pins feel, and the Sparrow (after disassembling and putting in some of their advanced driver pins) showed how I was accidentally picking more than one pin with my older/bad technique.

If anyone has suggestions for the Titanium or LOTO locks, I'm all ears!

 

I'm doing co-op with my spouse, and we're opting to nearly complete every Altar of Lilith, side mission, and explore every area before moving the story along. As a result, we're both level 56+ and are easily taking out most everything on World Level 2.

Are you folks doing something similar? Or just going straight to the main story/quest without detours?
