I installed it- also going to go through installing my 1GB SD card and copying the files over then I'll install something to tax it.

I would guess Mouser/Jesse would prefer to see 10 programmers making 10 fresh/unique new programs here on DC rather than having them all creating different forms of the same tool-publicdomain (February 28, 2023, 02:38 PM)
Silly me.
I thought I was buying JSAUX’s transparent backplate for the Steam Deck for the bragging rights. Transparent gadgets are fun! But you know what’s cooler than seeing inside your Steam Deck? Having a Deck that runs cooler, too.
I’m happy to report that after spending $30 on my very own JSAUX PC0106 Transparent Back Plate for Steam Deck, my original skepticism didn’t pan out. Not only does it look great, its built-in aluminum heatsink actually does help manage the $400 handheld gaming PC’s heat. And at just eight Phillips-head screws and a little prying to pop off your original backplate, it’s an easy mod to do.
Twitter is centralized, made for easy access (get an account and post stuff). ActivityPub, including Mastodon, is more complicated, both during signup and during actual usage, especially since you can find everyone on Twitter, but not all ActivityPub instances talk to each other.
I registered on Mastodon when still virtually nobody except a few IT nerds was there. It’s quite good for IT rants. Sadly, the wave of Twitter users tries to turn it into just another political network. Ugh.-Tuxman (January 23, 2023, 03:23 AM)
Mastodon has an entirely different target audience (and technology) than Twitter. Just because it looks similar, it isn't similar. Too many people think otherwise.Why do you think it's not similar?
Twitter has a special place in my heart. After all, my Twitter handle is (as my artist name) a part of my passport...

Mmm really, Python does not require installation on Win10? How come when I install any IDE like PyCharm, Anaconda, they install Python at the same time?-kalos (January 05, 2023, 07:37 AM)

Thanks! But *why* would I want to use containers/kubernetes?
For example:
- I use the cloud so that I do not have to have my laptop switched on 24/7 and also for performance reasons.
- I use sandbox for security and not to mess the whole OS.
- I use VM to run stuff in my local OS that are not built/available/ported to my local OS.
- I use portable apps for portability, easy deployment, easy migration.
Why would I use containers/kubernetes? I assume containers/kubernetes is an "environment" and what you actually run can be anything e.g. a python script etc? Why would I want to use such special environment if not for performance?-kalos (December 25, 2022, 11:50 AM)
Note there are some threat actors that are harvesting possible high value encrypted files to hold onto until the tech is fast enough to do the breaking.-x16wda (December 24, 2022, 08:12 PM)
Hacked passwords are still encrypted, but I guess it's time to change all important passwords and start looking at alternatives to central storing of passwords. I see in the 2015 dc thread Lastpass Hacked preople already saying to avoid this approach.-tomos (December 23, 2022, 03:51 PM)
These encrypted fields remain secured with 256-bit AES encryption and can only be decrypted with a unique encryption key derived from each user’s master password using our Zero Knowledge architecture. As a reminder, the master password is never known to LastPass and is not stored or maintained by LastPass.
According to Youtube channel 'Dave's Garage' Docker containers can be up to 15% slower than running the same tool on bare metal. He also tried VMs on the same hardware and performance losses were between 1 and 3%.-Shades (December 23, 2022, 06:24 AM)
