Vic 20 was my first. I watched my dad struggle with and eventually give up on assembly. Something-something and the microbots. I was fearful of it until I took Assembly at Uni. That 2nd/3rd year class was where the final puzzle piece of how computers work fell in place for me.

My first job was writing assembly tests for a DSP hardware design team. Fell in love. Never looked back.

Could probably replace managers with AI, but being trained on most managers would mean it would be equally bad at its job.

I think the most likely is for the artists jobs to go away as art doesn’t have to be exact, but code does.

No one was able to replicate the level of health complications from the movie. Apparently he was a raging alcoholic.

Alcohol kills. McDonalds is just sorta bad.

Finding a good client is hard. Folks recommend the Nvidia Shield Pro. Finding something that plays all the formats and can pass audio through hdmi to a AV receiver. Umcompressed HD audio, HDR/10/DolbyVision. Etc.

If I can just pop a debian machine down, that is great, but a hardware guide would be nice to see.

The Princess Bride

If you have seen it. You are happy to watch again. If you haven’t, you will love it.

I’ve had good luck with RetroDeck both docked and on the deck with multiple controllers. Not saying it is always smooth. But at least got it working in some emulators pretty steadily. They have put more effort into controls than I have seen from any other emulator aggregator.

Not along your current methods, but cheap steam docks are cheap. Get one with ethernet.

Also if you have games installed to another steam host on your LAN you can download from there rather than the internet.

Chip R&D. We only use 1’s, 0’s if management is feeling generous. There are no circles, no need for pi.

I get what he is saying, but I loved both ‘dig’ games. Could not stand Heist, and haven’t set aside time for build.

Good on them I guess.

Perfect!

If you work in some place with a bunch of network disks, this is safe and fast. core.untrackedCache=true

If you are on a local disk, this is faster/better. core.fsmonitor=true

If you code adding the current branch to your shell prompt will change your world.

Also, if you are getting good use out of find, you should learn to pipe the output to GNU parallel. Put those cores to work!

Where?

I only saw Oxide and Friends when I was posting above, so I will certainly check it out.

Not top 3, just my top (now ended) podcast of all time.

On the Metal https://oxide.computer/podcasts/on-the-metal The description: As a part of starting Oxide Computer Company, Bryan Cantrill and Jess Frazelle decided to also create the podcast that they always wanted. Joined frequently by their boss, Steve Tuck, Bryan and Jess interview incredible guests retelling stories of adventure at the hardware/software interface. It’s unapologetically technical and as Jess says, “the nerdiest podcast on the face of the planet” – but if you’re their kind of nerd, you’ll find yourself hanging on every word!

Looks like there is an LDAP auth plugin: https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin-plugin-ldapauth

If you ran such a beast.

Jellyfin has a (plugin) opds server for ebooks that use the same accounts as the rest of jellyfin. I use calibre to deal with organization/metadata.

If you have a bunch of plex users, switching to jellyfin might be a bridge too far.

I never considered one of the windows-based portables. In fact when I saw that the steamdeck was linux based and was well received, I jumped.

Once I saw how well it worked, I stopped dual-booting my laptop and get to live in linux all the time.

If the article is correct and the market is starting to push this way, that is great news for linux, linux-gaming, and everyone.

Retrodeck for me too. I found the devs very helpful and approachable. The work they are doing with the EmulationStation DE devs is making both better and really taking controller support to the next level.
