I switched at the start of the month, with the uncertainty around the economy I finally did my PC upgrade I’d been procrastinating, and - why get a windows license? Just go Linux.

I haven’t played the game, but I would recommend checking out ProtonDB for experiences from people who have.

There are 406 reports, I find it useful to look for reports from people with similar hardware to mine.

I know this is satire but it does hurt. Though in my experience my most concerning code reviews are when I review other senior devs code. Unfortunately my company decided senior devs were a tenure thing.

I have used AirVPN for half a decade and never ran into any issues, if you’re looking for an alternative with port forwarding.

If you don’t want to disable biometric auth, familiarize yourself with your phone and see if it has lockdown mode. Apple phones and most modern Android phones support it, using it will require your password / pin for unlocks. Put it into lockdown mode for the flight.

I work full time at a computer. I have two jobs, so I put in 68 hours a week (second is 28 hours a week, no overlap).

I have no issues with eye fatigue best I can tell, that or I’ve just gotten so used to it. I will note I do have the blue light filter on my glasses lenses my optician recommended.

Ditto. API thing was transition as well

MaM.

When I got into the space I had to find a private tracker, but since then I’ve had no issues with Readarr aside from some series being slow to get their metadata updated, but that’s not a Readarr issue.

He got scammed again? Damn. Sorry, I was referring this one. And not really the details of the scam, but it was the wrong place / wrong time element that reminded me.

Edit: the article you linked is older, so I guess not “again”.

Yup, what you’re describing sounds inline with how Corey Doctorow fell victim to fraud.

I’m fairly certain I annoy the people at my bank because I always insist on calling them back at their official number if they ask for any personal information. I don’t fuck around with my bank security. I did however get got a couple of more years ago back when the chrome browser window phishing attack first started and had my Steam account stolen for a solid minute.

That’s the attack where they simulate a browser window so what you think is a oauth popup is actually just inpage javascript and CSS.

So far I’ve helped my team of 5 get on them. Some other teams are starting as well. We’ve got Windows, Linux, and Mac OSX that developers are running on their work machine (for now), and the only container specific issue we ever encounter is port conflicts, which are well documented with easy to change environment variables to control.

The only real caveat right now is we have a bunch of micro services, and so their supporting services (redis, mariadb, etc.) end up running multiple times, so their is some performance loss from that. But they’re all designed to be independent, only talking to each other via their API, so the approach works.

If this is your take your exposure has been pretty limited. While I agree some devs take it to the extreme, Docker is not a cop out. It (and similar containerization platforms) are invaluable tools.

Using devcontainers (Docker containers in the IDE, basically) I’m able to get my team developing in a consistent environment in mere minutes, without needing to bother IT.

Using Docker orchestration I’m able to do a lot in prod, such as automatic scaling, continuous deployment with automated testing, and in worst case near instantaneous reverts to a previously good state.

And that’s just how I use it as a dev.

As self hosting enthusiast I can deploy new OSS projects without stepping through a lengthy install guide listing various obscure requirements, and if I did want to skip the container (which I’ve only done a few things) I can simply read the Dockerfile to figure out what I need to do instead of hoping the install guide covers all the bases.

And if I need to migrate to a new host? A few DNS updates and SCP/rsync later and I’m done.

Brave has been off limits for me ever since I saw my QAnon nutjob father using it lol.

I agree. The content definitely always gave off the impression of being rushed, just didn’t realize it was to such a degree.

I watched LTT videos for entertainment, not product suggestions / benchmarks / as an information source. Clown it is!

Granted I already unsubscribed from the channels I followed and won’t use him for even that anymore.
