Im still on my Orbi setup from 2016 and desperately would like to get off them, but the things I want cost an absurd amount of money… I thought Orbi was bad when I got them and now I want a cheaper company but everything is just so expensive I can’t. But yeah the one ive been looking at is wifi 7. To bad the only devices that may ever support it are our phones.

Now I am confused. Those are not fiber cables. They are regular ethernet ones. No light is in them. If you’re talking about fiber in general, then that would make more sense.

Ok, I figured, but you never know.

Wait really? I’ve never heard this before. How or why does this matter at all?

This actually sounds pretty cool. I just wonder what happens if this works and becomes big what impact this will start having on the ocean. At the size and scale, these will be i would imagine at least some impact on raising the temperature of at least the local area that they are built.

Still got a month of updates! Even then, I feel like you still have a few more months of no updates before it’s truly behind. It will be interesting to see how it moves between now and 6 months from now.

I was thinking the same thing. We got them in our IT dept like 10ish years ago and used them for conference rooms since they lasted a long time and we had issues with execs ripping people new ones because it wouldn’t work during their precious meetings and somehow was our fault. Anyway, I had that thing up until 2 years ago. It was awesome!

“An issue with a routine firewall upgrade resulted in some callers from the Northern Territory, South Australia, Western Australia and New South Wales not being able to make emergency calls. Approximately 600 calls were identified to have failed during the outage, and at least four people who attempted to call Triple Zero during the outage have been confirmed to have died.”

Wow, as someone who works in this exact role of upgrading firewalls i can tell you i have an incredible amount of anxiety when we need to do them because it is a high risk device that has caused issues in the past. Thankfully, our problems would never lead to the deaths of others, and I really can’t imagine how anyone who had a hand in this upgrade feels after hearing that. Plus, with how much attention it has, someone, if not multiple people, are going to lose their jobs. Sadly, after it upgraded, it probably worked fine except for this one or a few policies that controlled this one specific route. So nobody would have been able to tell until complaints rolled in. I dont even work in a huge company, and ours have hundreds of individual policies, so they easily could have a thousand or thousands of policies on 1 firewall. I really wonder what vendor they use.

Instead of just making the comment I would love to see him lay out exactly why and how it would destroy them so we can laugh some more at how ridiculous this is.

I use navidrome for hosting my music but for your ask I was also thinking funkwhale is exactly the thing you were asking for.

Yeah, I know. All those ideas weren’t new, but I was happy to see them. I use ++ all the time, but i also like notepad just for quick notes. It’s fast and lightweight. Today, I was using ++ a lot actually to edit firewall configs and scripts. They both have their place for me, but I will definitely be forced to give it up the day I am greeted with a check out our AI when opening notepad.

I use both notepad and ++. I think it fits both worlds of code and text editor. When I am using it I am usually needing to to replace words and other tweaks that are really easy and flexible with ++.

I didn’t try, but a lot of those simple old apps were able to just run without any dependencies, and you may be lucky to just be able to copy the .exe from an older system to the new one.

I actually have been enjoying the changes they did to it with new tabs and auto saving so you can reopen without losing anything. But wow, I never saw AI coming to this… I will need to find a way to prevent it from updating. Otherwise, I will also be going back.

This is why it would be weird if it was due to silksong, because it would have done just fine even if the release was close.

So, fake locations of Hamas and put them in a bunch of countries. Isreal can’t resist bombing them. Profit?

I dont go into depth that much, but i do a lot of manual labor getting everything in place when I get new music. Maybe I never spent a good amount of time figuring it out, but preset id tags done automatically never worked out for me. I check them all and edit a few things on some, and then I run it through music Picard using someone’s script to only update genre tags and give up to 5 per track. After that, I add them in. My biggest complaint about Spotify was that I didn’t feel anything when it recommended me stuff, and it always felt off as to what I heard. Something about looking it up, finding what’s new, and wanting to hear it is why I keep coming back. Spotify, I didn’t learn anything about who came on unless I looked. Weirdly enough, I feel like I discovered way more myself than with the algorithm.

Yeah! I’ve been using it since the first month, and it has been released and has come a long way in only 2 years. Funny enough, I used to use his other app, Yatse, way back in like 2010 for a while, and I also have nothing but high praise for it as well. It was a remote control app for Kodi, and the things he added to it were impressive. Who knew you needed tons of features in a remote control app!

I love seeing this. As someone who has kept his own library of music since 2004 and went through the peak of local libraries to it almost being dead after like 2012, this is a day I never saw coming! When it started declining, home hosting solutions were already sparse, but then some more threw in the towel as well. Right now, I use Navidrome as my server and Symfonium for the app and has been an incredible 2 years using it. If people start coming back, I feel like it will only drive more creativity and new features as it will be worked on more than it is.

empornium FTW!

Goes to one of the only places in the country that allows sex work, and that’s still not good enough.
