Fr, I would call every single one of those a “crossover” before I called them station wagons.
That Volvo v60 is the closest thing to a modern station wagon. If it doesn’t have 3 big side windows from front to back, it shouldn’t be called a station wagon.
GrayJay doesn’t cast to Chromecast, it uses F-Cast instead which isn’t on every platform.
ChapoTH and Sino enjoyers likely have an alert bot for any post with China, Taiwan, CCP, etc. in the title/body.
Imagine caring so much about international news that you get pinged like it was a text message from a loved one.
+1 for Mikrotik.
Get one of their routers that have an Arm or x86 processor and you can run PiHole and a DDNS updater on there as containers. Wireguard support (client and server) is built in.
Even their cheapest hardware that runs routerOS has access to all the same features as their enterprise level gear.
The directed scope of the bill is going to do the same thing to TikTok that legislation did to Juul.
If you target Juul with legal repercussions for all their flavored vapes, then only Juul stops selling flavored pods. Now a million other disposable vape companies fill the void with flavored vapes that are worse for the ecosystem.
Targeting TikTok will just lead to another foreign data-harvesting social media app popping up to fill its place.
I don’t think these two are related.
Change Healthcare (company who handles most electronic prescription platforms) had a ransomware attack a couple weeks ago that took down their entire infrastructure for multiple days.
Doctors and pharmacies were likely using paper scripts because the entire electronic prescription platform was shutdown.
State vehicle registration where I’m at is based on vehicle weight. Costs about $400 to renew the registration on my daily driver and $600 to renew for a larger truck. Motorcycles are only like $80 to renew.
Consumers are being taxed more for larger vehicles, it’s the manufacturers trying to avoid safety regulations that are seeing the cost benefits.
Could be a student or military or live in an apartment.
Not sure any of those establishments are going to be thrilled with you running an extension cable across the parking lot or sidewalk to charge your car.
Also pretty sure they meant their family lives outside of the range of a single EV charge and there’s no charging infrastructure on the way. What would be an 8 hour drive to visit family for the holidays turns into a multi-day trip with a stay at a motel/hotel to wait for your car to charge.
Spent a full day setting up Nextcloud so I could file sync my machines and share files externally. It was slow as hell and didn’t work half the time.
Spent 10 minutes spinning up Syncthing and FileBrowser containers and have had zero issues with them since.
Yup. Our RMM tools work best on Windows machines. Honestly, Linux is fine too, but MacOS is the worst to manage.
If anything needs to be modified/deployed on MacOS, I have to create a new PPPC and deploy it through Intune/Jamf/Addigy, otherwise you can guarantee the end user won’t accept the correct security prompts and things won’t work.
Damn, just reminded me how much I used to type while trying to buy/sell stuff in RuneScape.
Banks were just covered in walls of text before the GE existed.
Just checked and you’re right. Looks like it was always owned by Roblox.
I must be getting it mixed up with the Teams features they added to the Xbox game bar on windows.
Microsoft Roblox ripped off Discord and branded it as Guilded GG.
Features-wise for audio and game streaming, they offer higher quality than Discord for free.
Is there any chance you’ll get your group of friends to move to “MS Teams for gamers”? anything other than Discord? No chance.
Edited: Correction that Guilded is owned by Roblox, not MS.
The Oracle Cloud VPS only has SSH key authentication enabled by default. You can also set it to only allow SSH from your home IP in the virtual firewall before the machine is ever spun up.
Their current free ARM offering is 1 machine with 4-cores and 24gb RAM for life. You can also add another 2 AMD machines with 1-core and 1gb RAM and still be in their free-tier.
If you’re going to set it up and take advantage of the ARM machine, make sure you pick a home location for your account that has multiple availability zones. San Fran right now only has 1 zone, so if the shared ARM instances are all used up, you’ll have to wait a few days and try again. Phoenix I think has 3, so you can try with another zone right away.
Edge/IE run some underlying services for built-in windows features, so uninstalling them can cause issues with completely different parts of the OS.
Ran into an issue with a client still running Office 2016 where uninstalling IE11 prevented them from opening any links within those apps. Office was harcoded to look at IE for link handling and didn’t respect the setting for your default browser.
Where I’m at, a Costco membership pays for itself in 2 months with the savings on gasoline alone. Costco gas is nearly a full dollar cheaper per gallon than any other gas station around.
Also, try shopping in Costco without a cart. You’ll only be able to carry 2-3 things and it helps stop me from overbuying a bunch of stuff.
Costco is a religion and I’m all for it.
Your second wish already exists. It’s made by a company called nexdock. I think you can plug your phone in or run it over bluetooth/WiFi.
Somehow you hit an unpopular opinion landmine with the greybeard devs.
For the greybeard devs: Try asking ChatGPT to write you some Arduino code to do a specific task. Even if you don’t know how to write code for an Arduino, ChatGPT will get you 95% of the way there with the proper libraries and syntax.
No way in hell I’m digging through forums and code repos for hours to blink an led and send out a notification through a web hook when a sensor gets triggered if AI can do it for me in 30 seconds. AI obviously can’t do everything for you if you’ve never coded anything before, but it can do a damn good job of translating your knowledge of one programming language into every other programming language available.
Playing gorilla tag with a bunch of 12 year olds who enthusiastically want to help you get better at the game seems pretty wholesome to me.
Gaming’s toxicity is entirely correlated to the actual game you’re playing. Team based competitive PvP is typically going to be more toxic than any sort of PvE or PvPvE game.
iPhone still can’t report the RSSI of a wireless network. Until they make that work, anyone who works in it/tech has to carry a different device to test wireless networks.
The wireless hardware is in the phone. Just let me use it.
