I know Gnome has an option to mark a connection as metered, no idea what exactly that does though.

I use

• Vitals
• blur my shell

Blur my shell is make gnome look pretty good IMO.

I basically do exactly this, but I am running the reverse proxy on my home computer: the VPS is literally just acting as a proxy, for which I use wireguard to tunnel the connection. So far it’s worked great, though initial setup was a pain.

But you see, memes are art!

I think the meme is suggesting that 3 hours was spent setting up a local llm, like in This video.

The people editing their images in Blender are the same people who edit their videos in Blender lol.

TIL that Nintendo designed the usb-c port not to be compatible. Fuck them for that.

It was the eyes that gave it away for me. They look, just, wrong.

I bough Farcry 5 for around $10 CAD a few years back and that’s about how much value I got put of it.

Intel is almost flawless, I say as someone who uses an Intel A750. It does have a bug where putting load on the GPU causes a dramatic increase in latency for GPU compute tasks, but that’s mostly only important for VR. Flatscreen games work great.

lvra.gitlab.io is a great source of info for vr on linux. The discord server you mentioned is also bridged to Matrix for those who don’t want to use discord.

IIRC robot vacuums usually use a single Time of Flight (ToF) sensor that rotates, giving the robot a 2d scan of it’s surroundings. This is sufficient for a vacuum which only needs to operate on a flat surface, but self driving vehicles need a better understanding of their surroundings than just a thin slice.

That’s why cars might use over 30 distinct ToF sensors, each at a different vertical angle, that are then all placed in the rotating module, giving the system a full 3d scan of it’s surroundings. I would assume those modules are much more expensive, though still insignificant compared to the cost of a car sold on the idea of self driving.

Malware. All the malware 🪲. That thing better be airgapped.

Wait, do normie phone, just, instantly open an untrusted website? The camera on LineageOS has a “scan” mode where it shows the data of scanned QR codes before you make an action.

I have 1 time where my alarm goes off, but I use 2 physical alarm clocks: My phone and an old 90s digital alarm clock. The phone is mostly just as a backup in case of a power outage or something.

I had My minecraft server scanned by at least 3 different bots, and I even had some friendly guy join my server that apparently found it using a bot he wrote. I’m now using a whitelist lol. One of the account names that scanned my server was "Fifth Column, which is a griefing group.

There’s plenty of good, open source UX in FOSS. Have you seen the Gnome family of apps? They look great and are easy to understand.

There already is one called Flare. It uses rust IIRC.

$4.99 to plug in their camera
