Bro was doing a graceful windows power off by hitting his front power switch. Not cutting it via the PSU switch.

Results invalid, needs doing over.

I have a sliding door that I want to toss a stepper motor on, so my dog can push a button and let himself in / out.

I think you're thinking of Generations which is why you can't find it

Someone once told me that time was a predator that stalked us all our lives. But I rather believe than time is a companion who goes with us on the journey, and reminds us to cherish every moment because they'll never come again.

Heads up for anyone running mlmym on their instance, your site is probably being used for google SEO manipulation: https://github.com/rystaf/mlmym/issues/101

If you're running an old version, update to v0.0.40!

Y'all have been tempting me with your declious looking bread. I realize a bread machine is going to make simple loafs and not the stuff that's usually posted here, but curious on thoughts if they're worth it?

I'm low on time and lazy. I won't make bread if I have to whip out my KitchenAid and dough hook. Tossing some ingredients in a machine I can do though, plus it could make the dough for more complex things too if I do occasionally have the energy.

Should I do it?

Hello everyone!

I'm going to be taking the server down on Sunday to apply system updates, as well as migrate us to running across multiple lemmy containers.

Currently we do a nightly restart of lemmy / lemmy-ui at 2am resulting in a 2-3 minute outage (visible on our status page). This change will make those restarts transparent so I stop getting alerts on my phone.

I'm current planning on starting this at 11am PST on Sunday Feb 18th and will probably take about 30 mins.

Edit: All done! We've upgraded to postgres 16 as well.

Implication is that you're incapable of being self sufficient.

Too broke to move out, your parents still cook for you / do your laundry, can't bring a girl home without your parents hearing you get it on, etc.

For some reason I've been added as a mod of [email protected], which I actually blocked a while ago. I can't seem to self remove myself, maybe a lemmy bug from me being on a different instance.

Can a LW admin please remove me from that community?

Watch the video. It just means external to the CPU, not an external device.

They demo the attack on a Lenovo laptop in the first minute of the video.

Edit: nm I just realized that was a 10 year old laptop and they're in all the modern procs. I'm a lot less impressed now.

Sounds like intel has external and amd internal with their ftpm?

The prices will apply to vehicles weighing more than 1.6 tonnes with a combustion engine or hybrid vehicles, and more than 2 tonnes for electric vehicles. The move will not apply to Paris residents’ parking.

So sounds like it's weight based, which makes sense I think

I found this super interesting!

In the case of an explosive decompression, you can't have that wall trying to resist the pressure difference. It'll blow in a horrible way and probably destroy a ton of circuitry / wiring.

It needs to fail open like this, that design makes sense. The pilots should have been informed though.

An attacker could probably leverage that though to get into the cockpit.

Celebrate without buying gifts.

Why do you need to spend money to celebrate? Spend your time with people instead.

Ask for a raise. Tell them there's no retirement plans because of inflation now, and she can see herself staying there another 10 years.

They might not lay her off because they know she'll retire soon anyways. Increase her cost of employment so it's no longer cost effective to just wait it out.

The best part is it also works on DMs, so it's trivial to get any persons IP address. Want an admins IP address? Just DM them a message with an embedded spy pixel.

I emailed the lemmy developers about this a few weeks ago since IMHO it's a pretty big security issue, no reply.

Just to correct the people who say they can't see your password - this is only true if they're running a stock copy of lemmy, which hashes passwords in the database.

They're free to modify their instance however they want, including storing unencrypted passwords or emailing your password on registration to a bot farm.

Always use a unique password for every site you use.

Given that dealers don't have stock sitting around and are marking up both new and used right now... boo hoo?

Tell me they're not just turning around and selling that to the next person in the list. Really hard to have any sympathy for car dealers after how they've treated consumers.
