cramjabsyn··on Twitter now requires an account to view tweets
Doesn't really make sense… What prevents a logged in bot from continuing to scrape vast amounts of data?
cramjabsyn··on Rocky Linux shares how they may continue to obtain the RHEL source code
I tend to agree, if Debian embraced a longer term support model it would attract a lot of enterprise deployments.

RHEL is something like 10 years while Debian is more like 2, 3 if you push it.

tends to happen as you start reelin’ in the years
cramjabsyn··on John Carmack on shorter work weeks (2016)
The point still stands that doing 16+ hour days leaves little left for yourself and family.
cramjabsyn··on Tesla’s Magic Has Been Reduced to Its Chargers
And? A plug-in hybrid runs from electric the vast majority of the time.
cramjabsyn··on Everything must be paid for twice (2022)
> How do you reckon time vs money vs knowledge?

Well in an emergency scenario (what generators are for generally) the troubleshooting/repair knowledge you gained will be invaluable

cramjabsyn··on Tesla’s Magic Has Been Reduced to Its Chargers
If that were truly the case they’d have started with plug-in hybrids.
cramjabsyn··on Reddit.com appears to be having an outage
Today is the coordinated reddit "protest" day. Some ideas off the top of my head...

DDOS activity from pissed off stakeholders related to the protest

System ops using their access to further blackout action

A botched administrative action to reopen subs

cramjabsyn··on MIDI 2.0 driver support coming with Linux 6.5
> For literally anything else it's useless and I see nothing in 2.0 that fixes it.

Sorry, you must be holding it wrong. It is useful and flexible enough for countless applications. It was defined in the 80s and still used universally today, so objectively the opposite of useless and terrible. It is limited though.

cramjabsyn··on Show HN: Rarbg on IPFS
It depends if you run a node or are accessing via a proxy/gateway
cramjabsyn··on At last, the Raspberry Pi shortage is finally coming to an end
What are you using these days?

Personally I switched pihole and a few other servixes to a docker container on a USFF pc. Still using a pi4 for retro games

cramjabsyn··on CEO: Raspberry Pi stock to hit 1M units monthly, starting in July
I run a journaled filesystem on my pis and haven't had corruption issues so far
cramjabsyn··on CEO: Raspberry Pi stock to hit 1M units monthly, starting in July
I'd be nice to see a Raspberry Pi 5 upgrade sometime soon too
cramjabsyn··on Cloud, Why So Difficult?
Sorry but I’m struggling to read with the 20 characters per line formatting on mobile
cramjabsyn··on 12 years since Saab’s bankruptcy: Secret NEVS electric cars revealed
Some years ago I had a Malibu as a rental. The thing had all this chrome on the dashboard that reflected the sun right into your eyes as you drove. How on earth did anyone approve a car interior design that constantly blinds you?
cramjabsyn··on Windows 11 adding native support for winRAR, 7zip, tar, and gzip
Likely not considering winrar is decades old
cramjabsyn··on Tell HN: Be aware of people trying to scam contractors
Like what?
cramjabsyn··on Elon Musk Calls Remote Work ‘Bullshit’ and ‘Morally Wrong’
Productivity is exceptionally easy to track. Work is either delivered on time or its not.

Micromanaging and workplace surveillance on the other hand are indeed harder to perform on remote employees, and I love that for middle managers.

cramjabsyn··on Elon Musk Calls Remote Work ‘Bullshit’ and ‘Morally Wrong’
Alternate title: "Owner of car company wants people to keep commuting to work"
cramjabsyn··on Chemotherapy drug reaches brain tumors using novel ultrasound technology
Project manager says next week
cramjabsyn··on TikTok Feeds Teens a Diet of Darkness
Who paid for this article? TikTok gives you more of what you watch, theres plenty of content opposite what they mention as well. There are videos about every possible thing on there
cramjabsyn··on New Intel Linux Graphics Driver Patches, Up to 10~15% Better Performance
If when it lands I wonder how much it would help with video tasks like plex transcoding
cramjabsyn··on Thinking about our passive exposure to IPv6 issues
The IPv6 spec was published in 1998. 25 years on it should be nearly flawless. Not “most software,” all software including firewalls should support it with safe and sensible defaults.

The current state of support and adoption is frankly abysmal. The attack surface is non-negligable. And there is no end in sight.

The idea of deploying a new version of the internet protocol (which lacks backwards compatibility for reasons) in parallel to the existing version should never have left the drafting table.

cramjabsyn··on A fireside chat on education, technology, and almost everything in between
Why do people call an interview a fireside chat when there is clearly no fire?
cramjabsyn··on Rural Americans are importing tiny Japanese pickup trucks
Ah so you don't actually need a lifted turbodiesel for a work truck?
cramjabsyn··on I fixed a parasitic drain on my car in 408 days
I like Mazda and Honda (in that order). Japanese reliability, sporty handling and a turbo engine for a fraction of the german cars.
cramjabsyn··on Show HN: Live coaching app for remote SWE interviews, uses Whisper and GPT-4
I love this for whiteboard interview companies. Ask cs trivia questions, get AI responses and unqualified candidates. Hope it leads to an increase in conversational interviews.
cramjabsyn··on Linux vs. Mac
Yes I ran a linux desktop for years and switched to mac. Aside from getting used to the feel of the UI and finding replacement apps (that sometimes cost a few bucks) the experience has been excellent.

My Mac just works, upgrades are seamless (but do wait a few months before major os upgrades), the battery lasts all day, the audio and video quality are good, lid close suspends the system correctly every time. And everything syncs with my phone.

I spend most of my time in the terminal anyway, and just ssh to my linux dev host. I don't worry about trying to set up a full dev environment on my laptop, I prefer to do that on a linux server

cramjabsyn··on A new era of transparency for Twitter
Lol talk about tone deaf and rudderless. This is their era of impulsive decisions, cyber bullying and demise (I hope)
cramjabsyn··on This is a Chord (2016)
It’s a pain at first but it will come in time. This is true for barre chords like F and B too.

The cool thing about the D shape is you can move it up the neck. Move it up 2 frets and its a an E, 1 more and its an F. And so on
