As someone who is actively working in this space: yeah, it’s definitely not enough. This is the bare minimum. We need sweeping regulations nationwide. Unfortunately, this is becoming less and less likely. The best we can hope for at this point is for states like Colorado and California to put in the work to measure and regulate this stuff as best as possible and get enough data on Texas and New Mexico to shame them into doing something about it.

It does, but for the same reason as what happened to OP, it’s best to separate DNS from domain registrar.

Thanks. I don’t generally listen to audio books, so what I’m really looking for is a self-hosted solution for podcast syncing that works better than gpodder while keeping feature parity with AntennaPod on my phone. It sucks that ABS is so close to that but decided to not go the last 10% of the way. I’m sure they have a good reason.

When I played around with ABS over a year ago, they said there were no plans to add auto-downloading of podcast episodes to your phone or auto-queueing of new episodes, so I dropped it and haven’t tried it since. Is this still the case?

That’s definitely a nice solution, but I have not had good luck with free VPS providers keeping the lights on. It would likely cost money on the order of $5 to $10 per month, so it is a different class of solution.

Sounds good. Better free DNS option with API support?

It doesn’t matter what he intended. It matters what actions his audience will take.

on top of that, this whole plea to the rich fucks in the audience is just gonna make them think “you’re right, I do need to think about my children. I better amass as much wealth as possible, so that no matter how fucked the world gets, my children in particular can buy their way to the best life.”

Architectural blueprints have been explicitly covered by copyright in the US since 1990, but were likely implicitly covered before then.

He could always provide an open-source license before claiming that he is “open sourcing” his designs. You could always check for a license before claiming that something is open-source. Putting the onus on people after the fact to make those previous claims true doesn’t make any sense.

very cool. don’t see a license, though. no open source license => not open source.

Now that I’m deep in it with flakes + home manager + impermanence + disko/nixos-anywhere, it’s fantastic having this much control and stability on all my systems, and I’m excited to start switching as much of my homelab as I can over to NixOS like my workstations.

But I totally agree, I would not recommend this to anyone who is not super interested in it.

I honestly don’t really know. I know that The Environmental Defense Fund and The Clean Air Task Force have a strong presence in the state, so it may be worth donating or volunteering for them.

I’m personally working on this problem. It sucks, and the politics are frustrating as hell, but the people working at the State of CO to reign in oil and gas are making every penny of funding work as hard as it can.

And the Luddites were right

Fitting a 100W battery in the 13 inch chassis while keeping everything easily serviceable would be impossible

My plan to handle this is to switch my VMs to NixOS, set up NixOS with impermanence using a btrfs or zfs volume that gets backed up and wiped at every startup with another that holds persistent data that also gets backed up, and just reboot once per day.

I’m currently learning how to do impermanence in all the different ways, so this is a long goal, but Nix config + backups should handle everything.

I use a Ryzen 5900x, RTX 3080, 2x 10Gbit sfp+ NIC, 128GB ECC RAM, and only 2x 20TB drives at the moment.

For my gateway, I have an Intel N6005 box, I have a managed 2.5/10Gbit switch, and I have a wifi AP.

I have a ton of Proxmox VMs and containers.

All that hovers between 140W to 180W

To make life easier for yourself, I’d highly recommend running Linux on a separate drive. The Linux distribution installers I’ve used will install the bootloader on whatever drive you choose to install on, but the windows installer will use the storage controller’s port ordering to choose which drive to install on.

Your best bet is to simply disconnect the Windows drive when installing Linux and to disconnect the Linux drive when installing Windows, then just use the BIOS boot selection screen to choose which OS to boot into.

You can add your Windows drive to Grub and you might be able to add your Linux distro to your Windows bootloader, but keeping them entirely separate is probably best.

I preordered the new screen for my 2nd-gen. This is all great news!
