Out of the criticisms I have of Vance, I do have to say that he wears the Trump uniform better than Trump himself.

Yeah, I was thinking more of having a dedicated border device, and limiting the number of neighbors. You would also have to trust you neighbors to run software that self assembles a network, especially in a crowded area.

Not sure exactly what I would do with it either. It’s not meant for illegal activity, but I can see it being used they way. Properly secured it could be another dark web.

I thought about it needing some kind of border protocol to manage locations and routes. One would need to come up with an address and probably a certificate.

Regarding physical connections, I would say it’s easiest to use wireless. I personally wouldn’t want to advertise that my location is my network, so like the onion network I would like it to route away and double back.

I know this isn’t what is being asked, but has any of us considered a crowd network where independent users mesh? I would say that I would not want the mesh to meet the www due to endpoint abuse, but to have an independent can/man could be pretty rad.

The spec is too use 4 of 24 pins each for power and another 4 for ground. What if you used 16 pins for power? One could even be reckless enough to use 22 pins for power If the ground isn’t tied together, but that means you have to take a moment to sense ground.

Maybe you will see 8.5a at the device, but 10a at the source with the cable heating up…

Wouldn’t they make MORE money streaming for free with ads?

No. It will still there, but you will be too busy.

I was mistakenly thinking about Nintendo. I’ll change it.

That’s clutch. Thanks!

I just clicked around. Any idea how to apply this in Linux? I might tinker with it myself, but a heads up would help.

I think that enhancing existing artwork is a great use for image generation. It digests the existing artwork and fills in the gaps for upscaling. It’s a step beyond running the content through an upscaling filter and saving it for next time.

This is not removing artists, and the opportunity to perform this work manually existed for 20 years. It is big N’s Sony/Square’s miss for not preserving the original HQ artwork for a rerelease. They would charge 75 for the new product either way.

You should not have any issues. Worst case scenario is that one is slower than the other and will cause the faster one to step down, but unless one is significantly slower, you should have no issues.

Generally, in the past 10 years at least, mixed memory on dual channel configuration has not been an issue.

Google is doing this. I will see the time increase and get random skip backs pl on antenna pod.

This means no other background apps, written poorly, which drain battery life significantly.

So, I guess 20a dryers aren’t super common here in the States.

Also, where I grew up apartment complexes don’t allow you to run water lines. I have heard that leases in New York City allow for more modifications, so it could be a regional thing.

Not all American apartments have water lines for the washer or 30a outlets for the dryer, much less dedicated space for the devices.

I’m using truenas for my homebrew setup. I need to buy 2 more drives and start planning on rebalancing my setup, but this is how it looks right now.

I think it would be prudent to look for 32 GB of RAM. 16 is comfortable, and 32 is good for if you will be working on larger projects.

DDR 5 is the current standard

I wouldn’t go under 500gb for a SSD. Windows 11 64 requires 64 GB of storage. More than 1 TB isn’t bad to consider, but you can also shuffle massive projects off to external storage.

Do not use a HDD. Use SSD or NVMe. NVMe is more expensive.

USB 3.2 is the most recent iteration of the USB standard. It’s OK to settle for 3.0 and no USB C if cost is an issue. You can buy adapters, and unless you are constantly moving huge files via USB, it doesn’t matter.

If you can get WiFi 6, 802.11ax, go for it.

Google in this case. I’ll try the alternative mentioned

I’ll give it a shot. I’m using Google
