As someone who never did photography professionally but as a hobby, I learned the manual settings when automatic failed to take a good photo.

Nobody warned me that 2018 was the best time to see Saturn!

6 years before the rings are aligned at a good angle to earth again?

One but buy extra controllers so 4 people can play Mario Kart, etc together.

Edit: btw I had the same confusion over the switch which caused me not to buy it for years. Last year someone visiting with their child expressed the same confusion.

It’s never work in the US because holding private companies accountable for how they spend public money and maintaining well regulated competitive markets is communism or something

It did work in the US for many years. During the 90’s the Internet was regulated like that. Phone lines, t1’s etc were infrastructure that the ilec was required to provide at the same cost to isps they used internally to sell service to consumers.

Then Bush came in and ruled that fiber and cable were immune from those common carrier laws.

It’s not Stratasys. They did the original patented work in 1996.

This is someone who in 2020, copied the Stratasys patent, submitted it as their own new work, and were granted it!

In real world software systems, you need to handle monitoring and alerting.

That’s one example of your particular programming job. Many real world software systems do not require handling monitoring and alerting especially not using statistics, rolling averages, etc.

For example, I once wrote the encryption code used on smart card chips. Writing statistics for smart card card transactions would be someone else’s job. Same with the modem code I wrote for a product.

As others gave said, the solution is a VM but once setup correctly, you won’t notice.

If Windows is your primary computer, install HyperV, the built in VM manager for Windows. Then create a Linux VM for your NAS.

Once setup, you won’t even notice. HyperV auto saves and reloads the VM whenever you reboot. You don’t even need a window open for the VM, it runs in the background until you run the manager to connect to the VM and see it in a window.

If Linux is your primary OS, do the reverse and put Windows in a Linux VM.

Don’t hassle with Proxmox, etc. That’s for running lots of VM’s and toggling between them.

You might want to consider that backups only protect very old data from ransomware.

Ransomware works by getting on a machine and sitting for several months before activating. During that time, your data is encrypted but you don’t know because when you open a file, your computer decrypts it and shows you what you expect to see. So your backups are working but are saving files that will be lost once the ransom ware activates.

The only solution is to frequently manually verify the backup from a known safe computer. Years ago I looked for something to automate this but didn’t find it. (Something like a raspberry pi with no Internet that can only see the PC it’s testing, compares a known file, then touches the file so it gets backed up again.)

Yes, I’ve seen that argument against capitalism as a 4 panel comic in many forms over the past year on Lemmy but I can’t find it now.

I think even the Everett True Lemmy has had done it.

Simple != 35 minute video.

I’ve seen great arguments done in a 4 panel comic here on Lemmy.

Costco style.

Just because you can break RSA doesn’t mean you instantly get access to all private databases.

Encryption by itself isn’t important. You know all those big company data leaks that seem to happen every month? That data was very likely encrypted. But it doesn’t matter because when you control a computer, you can see the encryption keys being used and decrypt whatever is stored.

What does it do that you can’t get by typing something into the chatgpt website?

I don’t know where the 20 million comes from Estimates are 4000 qbits for RSA 2028.

We can’t have access to these things now, but we used to.

??? There was no change. It was always illegal. This was a petition to change it to be legal and the petition was denied.

Despite it being illegal, Internet Archive has hosted and I hope will continue to host rom collections like tiny best set go.

Agi and LLM are two different things that fall under the general umbrella term “AI”.

That a particular LLM can’t be censored doesn’t say anything about its abilities.

50% of the US wants Trump. I have no doubt that 50% would sign up for Musky credit.

Physical rentals are still legal. This is only about the legality of online rom downloads.

You think it’s ok for a local federated state to allow slavery?

Because it took a centralized government to have final control over those states rights.

That gives even greater advantage to centralized bureaucracy. 2000 years ago armies could be independent weeks before anyone back in Rome knew what happened.
