What's gonna happen if the post stays up? Probably nothing, so why are you upset

Yeah this is a good use case for it, if I remember right you can also trivially generate a live installer iso from the same nix configuration you'd use to run any usual updates. So you can make a custom installer for your exact configuration and copy that onto a flash drive to bootstrap you into a working environment. I think the live installer would generate something like a hardware-configuration.nix too.

Beach House might be close to this? You could try the songs "Myth" or "Silver Soul"

Other suggestions:

Pink Bullets - The Shins
Taro - Alt-J
My Warm Blood - The Microphones

Workers of the world, unite!

I just downloaded it real quick, here it is in a fresh profile. The different color wikipedia tabs are different profiles to show how the color scheme works. It makes me wish it worked like the tree-style tabs add-on.

I've got a similar use case and went with an X13 Thinkpad (AMD). It's good for hardware support, but if you want a good experience for watching videos, I'd look somewhere else. The display and audio are not that good.

The comments on the Instagram post of this video are wild, it's full of "I am a Venezuelan and I yearn for freedom, US send your best coup attempts"

I don't know if this is possible or even advisable, but theoretically maybe the NIC could be hardware passed through to a linux VM, and then configure the host to use the guest VM as a gateway? It'd be kind of a nuts solution but it'd get points for creativity. Guest VM takes hardware control of the NIC and the host connects to the VM like it's a separate device on the same network.

Something like the question posed here

You'd have to solve a few separate problems that might not be worth it, unfortunately I don't have these answers:

  1. Hardware passthrough to the guest (does it require any special drivers on windows/is this idea already dead in the water?)
  2. How to configure VM networking properly so that the host can use the connection (is it enough to configure the connection as bridged?)
  3. Performance

It's the same concept as running a mastodon server but turning off registration. No more or less secure.

Swedish says "varsågod" (literally something like "be so good"). Finnish developed social courtesies relatively late, and so translated the Swedish literally to "ole hyvä". Russian on the other hand uses пожалуйста (pozhaluysta). Don't know exactly where this last word came from, but nowadays it's used the same way as "please" as in "please, no thanks needed"

Can I please (pozhaluysta) have this cake?

Yes, here you go.

Thank you!

Please (pozhaluysta)

How hard is it to put openwrt on any old commodity router if it's on the compatible devices list? Is it basically just using the old router's firmware update page and loading the openwrt firmware image?

Thinking about gifting a new wifi access point for one of my friends with a crap router that doesn't even support 5ghz channels
