Still applicable. I think.

I know, I used to use an SSD with a different laptop. But it doesn't bother me enough, especially since I reboot it like once a month.

  1. I am a cheapskate

  2. I am too lazy to replace it (one of those modern hard to open laptops)

  3. I am too lazy to test and clone a 1TB (or more) drive

I actually used an SSD before with an old laptop, but that only required removing 2 screws. As for cleaning out dust, I don't use it much anyway, mainly because I don't want to deal with cracking this open.

I am just looking at getting some used ThinkPad.
But anyway, most stuff can be done on a smartphone. On the other hand, I already killed 1 motherboard likely due to overheating while re-encoding videos to AV1 in Termux. It was replaced under warranty both times though. The second time it was just some issue with communicating with cameras. Yeah, I am on this phone's 3rd motherboard.

But anyway, it's a laptop. I reboot it like once a month when updating, so it's not a big deal.

I think Cinnamon does that too.

I still use HDD.

I change myself straight away too.

🤔

Anyway, I don't need to bring more people into this world.

[-] [email protected] 10 points 1 day ago

both

I am pretty sure there were in fact more than just 2.

Quickly checking, there's (at least) 4.

It won't release the pressure fast enough. They'll pop eventually.

Smelling like shit?

but I have lots of students connecting SoHo wifi-routers to the subnets, and this way it’s pretty easy to tell, if someone put the WAN cable in a LAN port when people are getting 192.168.1.0/24 DHCP offers.

I use 172.31.254.0/23 on my WiFi router. I guess I'd confuse you. /23 to just separate it nicely into 2 /24 blocks.
172.31.254.0/24 range is for manual assignments and 172.31.255.0/24 range is given out by DHCP.
I do not need that many IPs, it's just for convenience.

I chose this range because of my school as it uses 192.168.0.0/16 range.
To help mitigate my possible mistakes when connecting to school network, I set the DHCP lease time to just 5 minutes.

Image on left is from 4 days ago, but the pimple was slowly forming over around 2 weeks.

The goop was sticky, not oily. Earphones are Panasonic RP-TCM130.

I was not able to find an explanation.
Something to increase cable lifespan, lubrication, rubber disintegrating, sweat and earwax that somehow got into the cable, dielectric grease, SCP-1407, no clear answer.

At first I thought the wires just somehow twisted. Nope.

I used to think that age equated to percentage of life lived, thus I thought that most people live to close around 100.
But it also made me think that people only get old when they're like 80.

I mean like actually "old". The "old" adults were referring to. At that age I considered those 14/15 year old 9th graders old, just a bit different "old".

For some reason this happens to me, but only with Orbit. At least the watermelon ones (I prefer chewing gums that leave minimum taste), I don't know about others. It just turns into a disgusting paste.

Laying on his back, if the perspective seems confusing.

OK, I hope my question doesn't get misunderstood, I can see how that could happen.
Just a product of overthinking.

Idea is that we can live fairly easily even with some diseases/disorders which could be-life threatening. Many of these are hereditary.
Since modern medicine increases our survival capabilities, the "weaker" individuals can also survive and have offsprings that could potentially inherit these weaknesses, and as this continues it could perhaps leave nearly all people suffering from such conditions further into future.

Does that sound like a realistic scenario? (Assuming we don't destroy ourselves along with the environment first...)

This battery lasts the life of the router under the operating environmental conditions specified for the router, and is not field-replaceable.

But who determines its lifespan?

Knowing there is a battery set to fail and I can't simply replace it makes me physically uncomfortable. Enough so that I'd rather it not have RTC.

Thanks Cisco.

It looks that we're experience a network outage to our second cabinet
this evening.  A ticket has been opened to address the issue.

This affects ryo.sdf.org, lemmy.sdf.org and ma.sdf.org

Thank you for your patience.

Confirmed that this is only a network outage to the second cabinet and is
currently being worked on by our network service provider.  Hopefully it
will be resolved soon.  Thank you for your patience.

our network provider has reassigned our uplink port for the second cabinet
and the hosts are once against accessible.

Both received and decoded in SatDump on Android.
The 321 composite PNG is 65MB, so I compressed it... and then Imgur compressed it even further so there's some extra compression artifacts, but anyway.

And a note: Look4Sat app seems to have wrong TLE for M No. 2-4. Thankfully there was a similar pass to one shown, just 15 minutes later and more to the west.
TLE on N2YO.com is right.

Edit: Ran the decoder again with baseband. It removed the lines from middle.

Sorry for the lazy meme, I don't know what else to make this branch diagram in.
