No thank you, I have all of Russia/China/Belarus's normal IP space blocked at the router in both directions. I don't expect it will protect me from anything, but it's a great way to not accidentally step into bullshit.

They are both running the same software, https://github.com/antfu-collective/icones

BTRFS doesn't care how big the disks are and you can just tell it to keep x number of copies of each data / metadata / system block and it will do the work of keeping your copies on different devices across the file system. Much like SHR, performance isn't linear with different sized devices, but it's super simple to setup and in tree where ZFS has a lot more complexity and is not baked into the kernel.

Snapshots are available, but a little more work to deal with since you have to learn about subvolumes. It's not that hard.

Edit: TIL, SHR is just mdadm + btrfs.

How about Google Orkut?

I have a 25th Anniversary Edition Thinkpad, 7th gen i7 that I keep running PopOS specifically because it has the old magic style IBM keyboard. It's the only laptop I can stand typing on, but it's video card is getting so old in the tooth that it's starting to have problems with compatibility.

I would make it a purple gorilla climbing up and down.

You can take a few minutes to make a routine and give it a custom name. "Ziggy, goodnight" turns off all the lights in my bedroom, closet and office (in case I left them on), sets DnD mode on the Echo, turns it's screen off and sets my ceiling fan to speed 1.

This took about 5 minutes to setup.

It's trivial to audit a large deployment, you look at dns logs.

It will never be as cool as this guy, https://silent.org.pl/home/2022/06/13/the-floppotron-3-0/

By the end of the floppy disk era, it was very rare to find a 400 or 800k disk that was still working, and Microsoft really didn't make much use of the DMF disks, they were replaced by CDs very quickly.

I still have a pair of USB floppy drives hanging around with the hopes of getting some more inexpensive ones at a flea market some day to make a USB based RAID-floppy array. I bet it will sound amazing.

Sure, the transformers would be smaller, but your transmission lines would be thicc.

Apparently I didn't math the math, I'm taking 1.25mg/week. I was measuring in units (.01ml) and the concentration is 2.5mg/ml.

Attributing a NRO mission patch to the Obama Administration is quite a bit of a stretch. There is a long tradition of mission patches for all sorts of things in the military and they are generally not dictated from the top down.

I don't think there are any studies yet combining keto and glp inhibitors. At least I can't find them. So yeah, you get personal experiences.

I started keto in June of 24, lost 50lbs and added a compounded version of Ozempic in November to get through the holiday season with a little extra help. I'm on a fairly low dose, 50mg/week, and it's working tremendously. I've lost another 25lbs up to now and it's about 10x times easier to stick with keto, macro logging, and calorie tracking.

I feel like even with keeping my calories to about 1500/day I'm just fine, and the cravings for sweets and over indulging just aren't in my head.

Yes, I'm advocating people pay appropriately for risk. The issue is with high risk, insurers pad profits to compensate for excessive risk or leave the market with no option other than some last resort insurers. Having government step in with regulation around profits over time keeps the rates in check. You can have a Lloyd's of London, but they need to have open audited books. Otherwise you can have a not for profit, ie government entity run the book.

Premiums should be based on risk, not flat. I don't know where you are drawing that line of reasoning from. Just because the government is providing coverage doesn't mean it's all the same rate. Every insurance product has a risk model to set prices. I was just advocating that we have a non profit minded entity with deep pockets do it vs private companies motivated by maximizing profit.

Public benefit corps fit this model as do regulated utilities.

The book of business has to be large and the pockets deep. Which describes our current insurance market and the government. The way we handle this now is with reinsurance.

I'm not saying everyone pays the same, I'm saying you take away the for excessive profit nature of insurance. If you live in a tinderbox you are going to have more risk and more costs. Yeah somebody has to model the risk and set a price, but I'm saying it shouldn't be someone who has an incentive to make as much profit as possible.

In all of those examples you have the for profit private insurance leaving the market because it's not profitable enough. When you take away excessive profits and allow the governmental pool to compete with for profit insurance, risk is leveled across the pool and consumers pay less. If the big private insurance companies can't be more efficient or have better risk models than the government, well they should stop trying to sell policies.

How about profit caps? I feel like government stepping in and being the insurer with a sufficiently large pool of risk to spread around lets them set a fair rate without the need to make a return or answer to shareholders.

To some extent this has helped with health insurance. Each year I get a check back from my insurer saying they didn't spend enough on my care vs my premiums.

EVs (and their resulting large battery packs) haven't been available at scale long enough, but there are already established businesses for recycling standard car batteries and it's why you pay a separate "core" deposit in the US to ensure they go back into the system.

People are starting these businesses already, it's yet another logistics problem to solve. Right now there is more money in pulling apart the packs the using the cells as salvage than there is recycling, but as more and more EVs reach end of life you can bet it will be a sizable market.

Yes, this is set to Nightmare, don't feel that bad.

I'm sorry, only long tons or short tons. Why have one unit when you can have two? In metric it's a Tonne.

I think FB turned the corner when Mark stopped driving his Acura. I'm not sure when I last saw it at building 16, but that was the date for me.

Physically it's 4 1/4 x 7 x 5/16. Word count isn't much.

Likewise, I did (and continue to do) keto for the last 6 months and lost 50lbs. 3 Weeks ago I started Semaglutide while continuing to do keto and it's just made everything easier. I've lost another 10lbs in the 3 weeks, am logging all my meals and taking macro goals into account. What's better is that because I was already "fat-adapted" as they say in /r/keto, my body isn't starving in a caloric deficit. It's just burning more fat as ketones.

Yes, I am trying to hit 100-150g+ of protein per day, yes I am in a caloric deficit. No, I don't feel like I have lost any muscle mass, but I do feel a lot more active at 60lbs lighter.

Lots of people are spending a lot of money on in app purchases in these games already.

We have a lot of experience with chemical processes like fractional distilling that will take a lot more work in micro-gravity. Yeah there are tradeoffs, but my hunch is the surface of Mars will be a lot more familiar.

The asteroid belt doesn't have nearly the gravity well to send payloads back from, but it seems much harder to make propellant there in situ.
