1 month agoThe $20B was printed by JPMorgan Chase bankers so that Jared Kushner and the Saudis could buy EA at 45% off. In return, the saudis promise that they can siphon $20B from fired workers back to the bankers over the next ~10 years.

4·3 months agoThe 15% tariff is probably a positive thing. It’s motivation for European companies to find customers outside of the US and eventually decouple, without the shock of a total embargo.
6·3 months agoit would be nice if people didn’t use AI to write their articles.
122·3 months agoI would probably remove python 2 support, it was end of life when the project was started.
I dont think Immich supports turning a normal account into an sso account, though it may be possible with manual database editing.
EU banks are working on it

There’s some sort of SEPA instant payments that come into effect this fall, I think, too.

Kubernetes is great for single nodes! It definitely is more advanced than docker compose, but it’s actually not hard at all if you read through the documentation. It definitely makes running containers easier in the long run.
Here is my git repo for my big Kubernetes cluster at home: https://codeberg.org/jlh/h5b/src/branch/main/argo/custom_applications
It started out as just a NFS server and a Kubernetes server running on Proxmox in 2021.
It’s not going to make a meaningful difference in your threat model and it will cause a lot of hassle for extra configuration and broken docker images, so I wouldn’t bother.
There is some nice tooling for transparent user name spaces coming down the pipeline in Kubernetes which will be a nice 0-effort security upgrade, but if you don’t have the tooling, I would say it’s not worth it.

2·4 months agoSSDs are getting crazy cheap.
If you need 10tb of storage, you could get 2x used 10tb hdds in raid 1 for $200, but 6x used 2tb nvme in raid 5 is only $600 and 100x faster. Both take up the same amount of space.
SMR is designed for enterprise raid that is SMR-aware.
I’m not aware of any open-source zoned storage raid but I think Ceph is planning to add support next month.
Hetzner Storage box is $20/month for 10tb.
They literally campaigned on a slogan saying that doubling the prison time would cut crime in half. Insanity.

The memo in question:
Easy fix, just have the AI summarize what happened in the last week for you so you don’t confuse it with multiple languages. Now you don’t have to talk and the other person doesn’t have to listen!
I expected an option that replaces Aunt Janet with an AI voice that summarizes each sentence. Gotta justify all this money on AI somehow.
- Yes.
- Yes, and if you want custom configuration, you can include your configuration in-line in the same file that installs the http server and sets up systemd for it. Or you can even write your own module that drops configuration files in the same file.
- Home-manager modules are modules that run stuff exclusively in
~, doing things like configuring browsers or dotfiles. As opposed to NixOS modules which configure system-level daemons.
Ah cool, I’ll check it out.
The home manager documentation bothers me a lot
Yes, it’s a loan so big that normal personal finance “savings and loans” rules don’t really apply. This loan is 3X EA’s entire revenue, 2X Nintendo’s entire revenue. Basically an entire new game-publisher’s worth of money flowed into the gaming industry to exert dictatorial control over EA. JPMorgan Chase just have to make sure that they get their money back from the EA employees they just helped the Saudis buy.
