Parents, maybe? They are usually so concerned about children's safety, whether that's their kids or someone else's.

I already did back when Microsoft announced they would drop WMR, but it was (and still is) pretty experimental, with no controller support and 6DoF requiring external tracking.

to keep Copilot off your desktop or learn Linux

For me it's one year to keep Windows Mixed Reality working. I'm still miffed that they pulled the plug with no alternative other than putting my headset in the bin and get a new one...

It will end up being analogous to Uber and Lyft, and neither helps reducing the amount of cars on the road.

Looking for UPS suggestion (lemmy.blackeco.com)
submitted 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) by BlackEco@lemmy.blackeco.com to c/selfhosted@lemmy.world

Hello,

I have been owning an APC Back-UPS BX1600MI for a little under two years and have been encountering issues with it recently: the battery failed in August, I had to RMA and the replacement one is stuck on battery power while plugged to the mains since last night.

From what I gathered online, this model is plagued with issues, so I'm looking for another one.

My requirements are:

  • Purchasable in the EU
  • Has a variant with FR or DE plugs
  • Can be monitored with NUT over USB or Ethernet
  • At least 900VA capacity but if I can get the same capacity as currently (1600VA) for about 200€ I would

Thanks a lot!

EDIT: The UPS is fine, it turns out my street's transformer had an issue and only provided 135V instead of the expected 230V, which means that the UPS was on battery for a valid reason. What lead me to believe that the UPS was at fault was that every other appliances seemed to work fine.

Also it doesn't respect robots.txt (the file that tells bots whether or not a given page can be accessed) unlike most AI scrapping bots.

The relevant part:

"So [Piastri's overtake at Monza] wasn't an ideal point in my world, but also as a team. It's not how we should have gone racing there. I think clearer instructions of how we can race each other has been cleared up."

Norris was asked if he was running in second place behind Piastri in first, that his team-mate would "probably not" be expected to give him the win and gave a clear "no" when further asked if Piastri would be handing him victories.

"In general, [the new rules are] probably for lower positions but if he's fought for a win and deserving of a win, then he deserves to win," he added.

Earlier this year, researchers from security firm Avast spotted a newer FudModule variant that bypassed key Windows defenses such as Endpoint Detection and Response, and Protected Process Light. Microsoft took six months after Avast privately reported the vulnerability to fix it, a delay that allowed Lazarus to continue exploiting it.

Dammit Microsoft, you only had one job!

Hello all,

As you may be aware, Firefox introduced on-device translations on the desktop a few months ago and according to this knowledge base page it has been available since version 126, but unfortunately only on some unnamed devices.

Do you know of any way (i.e. preferences in about:config) to forcefully enable the feature?

Thanks in advance

I would like it to be opt-out because years of Sync for Reddit taught me "orange is upvote, violet is down vote and red is hide" when using swipe to vote/hide.

Someone should create a leaderboard of websites sharing data with the most "partners", this week I saw someone on Mastodon posting a screenshot of a website sharing to 1700+ third-parties.

Edit: my tone was tongue in cheek, I hope Google will keep its promise, but you know, they did us a Stadia after all.
