The performance will be so-so, but you can buy an Intel Arc B70 for $1000. There are definitely ways to get going for less.

FYI, llama-server can now be run in router mode so llama-swap is probably only needed for more exotic scenarios.

Pros: Proper EV motor scream. Cons: 56HP.

Yeah, it's a bad scene, the Ruby community isn't nearly big enough to sustain major fractures.

It took a fair amount of reading between the lines, but here's what appears to have happened: 1) People and entities with partial control over RubyGems attempted to cancel DHH. 2) …

Not only is RabbitMQ durable, it has transactions with rollback. The entire set of problems the author describes are down to Reddit using Rabbit like Redis.

Wal-Mart's Sceptre brand still sells a wide range of dumb TVs. Not super great performers, but also not expensive by any means.

I bought a Jura full-auto within a couple months of the start of the pandemic. Coworkers did likewise. So it's probably a real phenomena.

I've been using SQL Workbench/J [ https://www.sql-workbench.eu/ ] for quite a while now. Uses JDBC so it'll connect to anything, good SQL formatter, builtin scripting commands, sup…

I've had my Hue setup change through 4 color schemes based on sunrise/sunset and time of day for a good few years now. I'm not aware of any automagic way to achieve this result. Yo…

Look into Serve The Home's Project TinyMiniMicro: https://www.servethehome.com/introducing-project-tinyminimic... If you're not too picky about specs, eBay will give you one of the…

Per Wikipedia Mexico, Honduras, and Guatemala also have constitutional protections of varying strength.

I have, admittedly old and very vague, memories of people talking about rsync being "hard on networks" or "dealing poorly with congestion." I'd put good odds that this bug is why t…

This is a really good concept, definitely going to use it with the kiddo. On a laptop screen, the buttons could be bigger, hard to hit them with little fingers.

The Hue bridge is capable of this type of scheduling without any other devices. Philips simply hasn't included any useful level of flexibility in their app, so the use of All4Hue o…

Don't be silly. Real work would mess up the scam, which works roughly like this: 1) Build a software system that appears to perform a real-world function. 2) Offer that real-world …

OK. Leaving aside that the whole article kind of smells of self-justification over the approach of the LA Times itself to reporting actual news vs. opinion, there's a mathematical …

I've worked with WebRTC NAT punching pretty extensively, and it is not the solution to your problem. STUN and TURN both require details like proxies with fixed IP addresses, specif…

My favorite NAT-busting mechanism is Tor hidden services, The onion network provides the basic P2P overlay as well, so it keeps life simple. STOMP over WebSockets is cool, and I be…

Good article, but the response to the last question on the use of cannabis in warfare is pretty thoroughly wrong: https://sensiseeds.com/en/blog/cannabis-may-used-weapon-war/

In my experience, urxvt is both faster and uses less memory than xterm by a good margin, although there's not such an appreciable difference on a modern system. Gnome Terminal, on …

Sorry, I thought it was common knowledge that people associated with her campaign were engaging in this type of activity: http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2016/04/21/hillary-p…

Very likely the work of Hillary's shill force, pretty low odds they don't follow this site when major news comes out.

So, they'd like me to download a 31MB app with "Precise location", "Read contact data", "Modify or delete USB storage", and "Full network access" (among others!) so I can order tac…

Yes, these days I'll make sure that it sees a decent amount of power on time and several full drive writes before ever trusting data to it.
