@fosstian would be shocked if brand new @frameworkcomputer with their own RAM was bad. Memtest86 at install time was clear
@wyndon meaning?
@sam moving the VPS to home servers?
When watching a programme from BBC iPlayer or BBC Sounds, do you consume it all the way through or skip to the highlights?
Our research shows that it may all depend on the type of programme you're watching on demand...

@users what happened Monday?!
@miss_jwo real. Here's mine with USB-C and HDMI sockets for scale. You can hopefully see its not much taller than a few C.
Lid is shut, hence the black line :-)
@miss_jwo 100 and 10 percent yes. Got the AMD and it kicks ass. Light, powerful, sustainable and repairable. Why by another brand?
@dancast @drandrewv2 literally just bought a couple of 3m Anker ones. Work great, including high power charging.
Like, I really don't get why so many of you are so eager to have statistical models write code for you.
I've been arguing for literally my whole career that the actual writing isn't the hard part of software development. But wow, did everyone take that in the wrong direction recently.
Understanding the system is the hard and valuable part. And I genuinely don't know how you think you're going to do that if you never get to do any of the safe and easy interactions with the system.
@0xabad1dea there's also the google inactive account manager (https://myaccount.google.com/inactive), which you can set up to configure how things get handled when your account is inactive, and it'll also send you periodic reminders it exists. plus a reminder 3 months before it yeets your account
probably good to set up generally; definitely good to set up for accounts that are actually inactive
Watching a mutual ask for printer recs and receive a chorus of tired tech folk going "Just get a Brother, they're fine" and man
MAN
Like this is actually kinda fascinating honestly, Brother is now the best printer brand, the one that every Computer Person recommends, and is it because their printers are good? Their printers are fine, they print, whatever, no, it's because everybody else's printers have gotten Innovated out the wazoo, every innovation making them way worse, until it's gotten to the point where I wouldn't have one in the house even if it were free, and meanwhile Brother's have remained consistently Fine I Guess, which now makes them the best printer manufacturer simply by virtue of them opting out of the Who Can Get Crappiest Fastest race
Brother have gotten to where they are now, by NOT innovating
