It’s been a while since I’ve been reminded Teletubbies exist.

The ad serving companies (Google) don’t care about what happens after the click (yet). As far as I’m aware no “handshake” process exists that would allow an advertiser to communicate with the as server and validate a click (such a process could be abused).

Most likely the advertiser would be using some form of client side analytics, so the click wouldn’t show up in their statistics, meaning the advertiser would see a huge discrepancy between the clicks they saw in the campaign and the clicks the ad server reports.

I’m not sure what you mean by “open source compatible”. Do you mean the camera itself can have open source firmware installed, or that it’s compatible with open source NVR software such as Shinobi or ZoneMinder?

If the former, I know some of the Wyze cameras have that option. Like OpenMiko. There’s all OpenIPC, which does have a list of supported devices.

If the latter, any camera with RTSP and some sort of API to expose PTZ controls would do. My personal recommendation would be Axis, which makes solid cameras.

Yeah I was surprised. I’m hoping it was a manufacturing defect and assuming they replace it it doesn’t happen again. If they don’t replace it though I have to stick to my convictions.

As an avid dbrand fan, their grip case for the Pixel 9 Pro was disappointing. The plastic around the USB port is super brittle and broke after less than a week. Now the bottom is deformed and I’m waiting on a reply to my support ticket before I find an alternate case and kiss my skin goodbye

60C is when PLA starts to warp, but even lower is when it starts to degrade. 6 years is more than enough for this level of degradation even in a less volatile environment.

Holy shit, 10,000 commits because each change was individual (I’m assuming automated).

Early voted. WFH today. I don’t think I want to be out and about.

In Georgia you may be able to score a free ride - see here: https://newgeorgiaproject.org/rides/

Other states may have similar offerings.

It’s either woefully incomplete or behind a paywall so someone in the company has access to be you can’t figure out who and eventually just give up.

A family friend in a similar spot just referred to each other as “life partners”. Any others it was just “partner” or “significant other”.

My HVAC is 25 years old and going strong. Only quirks it has is the airflow sensor needs to be blown (haha) once in the winter. Only maintenance outside of the usual I’ve done is replace the fan capacitor.

My water heater is about 10 years old but one of the perks of my gas utility is a water heater warranty so when it comes time to replace or repair part of the cost will be covered.

I’ve seen it a few times in passing and always assumed it was like, a tech demo or proof of concept.

I’ve had bad tinkering break my system before, but never had an update break it irreversibly. The closest would actually be on Silverblue itself, when an update to the kernel was using different signing keys that cause the system not to boot. Fortunately it was simple, I selected the previous deployment and I was in (on a non versioned OS I would have selected the previous kernel which most are configured to retain the last few). A quick Google revealed Ublue had a whole kerfuffle and after verifying it was legit, I enrolled the new certs into my MOK.

Although one time on Arch I had installed an experimental version of Gnome from one of their repos, and was pleasantly surprised when that version finally released and I removed the experiment repo and did an update absolutely nothing at all broke. Nothing.

It’s the first thing I thought of when the articles about the generative AI polluting itself started coming out.

Yeah, the generative AI pollution feels alot like the whole steel thing - since the nuclear tests it’s been impossible for new steel to not be slightly radioactive, which means if they need uncontaminated steel they get it from ships that sunk before those.

LUKS, or anything that relies on the server encrypting, is highly vulnerable (see schizo@forum.uncomfortable.business’s response).

Your best bet would be encrypting client side before it arrives on the server using a solution like rclone, restic, borg, etc.

Such a cute photo. I’ve been trying to take more photos of my pupper. He’s 13 now, and anytime I’m not sure if I’ll ever be ready to lose him.
