Homelabbers, please look past twisted pair. 10 GBit is way past the point of diminishing returns, it's why your NICs are so easily overheating. Fiber is affordable, and for short d…

> Could too much thermal insulation cause the bed temperature to lower (to avoid overheating chamber temp) to the point the print no longer adheres? etc. I've insulated my Core One…

Maybe I'm in the minority... but this seems like an extremely compelling offering for certain use-cases. Not for enterprises, but for individuals and small businesses. My off-site …

Same here, I've found a single (not too big) monitor to be best for ergonomics. Still keep a second monitor around, but it's exclusively for screen sharing. Speaking of, having a d…

Would be nice if you could buy a Macbook with a proper on-site warranty. Dell, Lenovo, HP will gladly send a technician to your house, and their NBD warranties cost about the same …

I want to switch to Roon, but the lack of a web client (let alone a native linux client!) makes it a total dead end.

Bit of an unknown feature, but tree can output HTML. I've used tree -H to generate directory listings more than once.

What a brilliant, simple solution. This way each segment in the LED strip has an equally long current path, and should have identical voltage/brightness. --- That being said, 20-50…

If you're going to do a phone-width camera bump, at least make it flat so I can put my phone down without it wobbling. Apple's bump on a bump is the worst of both worlds.

Even if the patents are only valid in China, this is going to hurt western companies a lot. If you're manufacturing a product in China, you'll need to either: 1. Pay the patent tro…

This simply isn't true. Where I live every major operator offers multisim i.e. two (e)sims with the same number. It's primarily used for smartwatches, but they support phones as we…

Every time I learn a new Bash trick or quirk, it just pushes me further towards Powershell and Python for system administration. Bash scripts are so hacky. With any other language,…

By the time licensing becomes relevant, your business is built around the platform and this gives Gumroad an unreasonable advantage in any negotiations. Imagine what they could say…

I'm surprised Chris left out a big reason: cable is cheap, and labor is expensive. And there are a lot of fixed costs that don't depend on the number of cables or their thickness. …

What's with the double standard, around sugar and artificial sweeteners? Artificial sweeteners do not need to be as safe as bottled water. They just need to be less harmful than su…

That's certainly one way to go, and this "best effort" support as you describe it is what I personally advocate for. Put it out there on the free Internet, and if it works in China…

Assuming you've decided to deal with the ICP filings and other quirks of the Chinese Internet, how does your global website serve users on a technical level? Do you have a separate…

Why don't they just put two connectors on the 90-series cards?

Market forces are driving companies to make more and more highly integrated, glued together macbook clones because consumers demand them. Or at least manufacturers think they do. M…

How about supporting a socket for more than one generation? My desktop PC from 2018 is still going strong, on account of using the AM4 socket (AMD). That allowed me to upgrade to t…

Depends on your jurisdiction.

Perspective shouldn't be a problem. Some cars already do eye tracking, using a camera placed near the gauge cluster, as part of a driver monitoring system.

Why spend money on something so subjective? If you care about peripherals at all, a $13 basic keyboard is just as bad as a randomly chosen mechanical keyboard. Neither is likely to…

How much more evidence do we need, that exercise is good and any amount is better than none?
