PSA: If your router has a guest network feature, enable it, and put all of your IOT devices on it. Unlike the main network, guest networks are typically configured such that each device on the guest network can only access the internet, and not other devices on the guest network, nor the router, itself.

Gotta own those libs, right? /s

I’ve read science fiction books in which humans scavenged the machines’ supplies like rodents scavenging from a kitchen, and now it’s reality.

Well I’m guess I’m lucky that I don’t have friends.

I use AIMP for my snobby lossless FLAC library.

Remember when Trump said that Hillary was corrupt for accepting payment for speeches?

The comment by ksymph sums up my thoughts exactly:

The principles behind this effort are admirable, but I’m concerned about the practical implementation. Who is funding this? How will one person per domain be verified? Is self-hosting actually required, or can one use an external host; in the case of the former, how would it be verified, and in the case of the latter, what exactly does this tld accomplish that isn’t accomplished by free tlds, tlds like .me, or services like duckdns? Open source software clients as described are a major undertaking; why keep them under the umbrella of this tld?

I respect the goals here, and I want this to succeed, but this is a massive project, and without a clear plan I’m afraid this will peter out even if the tld is granted.

The headline is a lie. Not only did they not cut into the roof of the reactor, but the reactor was also offline when they replaced the steam generators

Bruce Power cut into the roof of an operating nuclear station, hauled eight steam generators weighing 100 metric tons each (about 110 US tons) out through the top, and lowered brand-new ones into the same hole. Then it brought the reactor back online on June 8

Is it a noose made of hemp

My answer has nothing to do with current events: what scares me the most about the future is the inevitable death of my parents. I am scared of never being able to talk to them ever again.

I am currently making my way down IMBD’s list of the top 250 TV shows (by user ratings). They also have a similar list for the best movies.

My personal shout-out goes to Black Mirror.

“In leadership roles, narcissists have a clear preference for face-to-face interaction, where richer channels allow them to not only gain attention but also wield power and status,” the authors write. Remote settings curtail leaders’ usual means of “directing and inspiring employees” like using hand gestures, fluctuating the volume of their voice, making eye contact, and adjusting their posture. “When communicating by video, phone, email, or text, it is more difficult for leaders to command the attention—and gauge and bask in the admiration—of their employees,” the authors write.

I don’t understand the aversion to datacenters. Just make sure that they use green energy and recycle their cooling water.

Hell yeah California. Suck it, Peacock.

I disagree. This site is not hostile or insular at all. Also, it’s not Lemmy, it’s The Lemmy Club.
