Blog post (?) from Catherynne Valente about this exact topic
Stop benefitting from the internet, it’s not for you to enjoy, it’s for us to use to extract money from you. Stop finding beauty and connection in the world, loneliness is more profitable and easier to control.
Not necessarily a trick that's always useful but I always forget this.
You can get async REPL by calling python -m asyncio.
Also, old trick - in need of simple http server serving static files?
python -m http.server
The only workarounds that seem to improve stability involve manually downclocking or undervolting Intel’s processors.
Guess that explains why I haven't had any unexpected crashes yet with stuff like Palworld or Helldivers 2 (afaik both are made in UE). Have been running my 13900kf slightly undervolted.
The reality is there isn't an alternative that would be easy enough for non-tech people.
I am never getting my friends off of Discord because there is nothing else that is easy for them and has same features - texting, calling and desktop sharing with sound.
El Salvador needs to offload bags of BTC, loud and clear
We’ve consolidated all our code into a single repository – just clone ente-io/ente on GitHub, and you will have at your disposal a state of the art, end-to-end encrypted, full stack (mobile/web/desktop clients, the server, and a CLI to boot) alternative to Google Photos and Apple Photos.
I have recently bought the P14s Gen 4 and except for some WiFi issues it has been pretty smooth sailing (definitely a loot better then the last notebook I had with nvidia dgpu).
Did you try containers? Though truth be told I am not amazed by any of these solutions too.
Hah, there's also seznam.cz (meaning "a list") - I wouldn't be surprised if more then half of whole Czech Republic (so ~6M) uses that as their primary mail provider.
It's also a main local web search and maps provider among other stuff, and pretty popular with non-english speaking part of the population.
If the maintainer accepts this they would be most probably killing the project, can't imagine people using it when it drops their user registration by a lot because of blocklists this wide.
One-time use vapes should have been banned a year ago, that shit is pumped with nicotine and the amount of waste is crazy.
Rant time:
A few years ago I could buy litres of the vaping base and nicotine.
EU came in, said we must protect the children and forced that nicotine bases must have maximum concentration of 20mg/ml and can't be sold in a bigger volume then 10ml.
The safety caps are cool, the forced maximum concentration and artificial max volume is not because it creates shitton of instant plastic vape.
Now, if you want to save both time and money by making a bigger "tank" of it, you will find out sellers basically giving you ~30 of these 10ml nicotine bottles in a pack (called boosters).
You empty them yourself into a big one (with some amount of raw base to dilute for given concentration) and now there is 30 plastic bottles ready for trash, yay.
Note: I stand behind vaping as just a bit safer, less smelly way of nicotine use.
If you smoke, try vaping, otherwise don't, you don't need it.
