That's a flop of an ending

Yellow flag infringement, nooo

Even if they don't, spending g time fighting just make a HAM win more likely

It would be cheaper and simpler if they all just got together and agreed that all the pins should be 1-1 so you didn't have to worry about mixing cables..... That wouldn't make them more money though!

The problem is access to market data. You are not going to find reliable (free) APIs for all the shares you want, never mind mutual funds etc.

If anyone knows options for UK/US data that is likely to remain free for year then let me know!

You can just scrape brokers websites of course, but it gets funky when there are splits/reverse splits/mergers.

All the recent Nokia's were theirs, so probably more recent than you think. But yeh, nothing since then I think?

I use Tesco workman's socks (I imagine UK only) and step one underwear - really good, but have been advertising recently, so I don't know if they are enshiterfying.

I have a recipe for a casserole with chicken, peanut butter, coconut and sweet chilli sauce... sounds totally random, but it's delicious

I thought AI prices were going up, not down? I assume this is Google using it's deep(er) pockets to lose more money to get more market share..... But the price must go up right? Or are consumer chat bots with their smaller contexts profitable?

Has the quality of the socks decreased? My last set was awful. (Switched to Tesco's workman's socks, last forever)

I bet the engineers know exactly what's wrong, but it's not politically/financially beneficial for their managers to say.

Article's headline, not mine!

I disagree, with the headline, but it does at least mention astroturfing etc.

 

Seems to go to an alternate front end, but not load?

 

... Who would have thought?

 

Would link to the status page.... But it's down!

 

They sell things that come in cups, or with napkins. Lots of people cycle/run/walk here instead of driving, seems pretty stupid.

Taking away the bins doesn't mean you don't produce rubbish....

Edit: I think there is still a bin IN the cafe, but most people eat/drink outside. Lots of people asking staff where the bins are. Still hypocritical I think though? (And still mildly infuriating to remove well used bins!)

Hi, I'm looking for some recommendations, mostly looking for pointers of where to go and look at/research stuff as I have no idea what is good and what is just well advertised.

Intro: I have finally entered the world of (almost) Gigabit internet, which is opening up options with what I can host.

I currently have:

  • Pi hole on an actual RP (will probably remain there because its easy)
  • Inbound Wireguard VPN on my old router (will stop working when my old ISP stops service) EDIT: my new ISB gave me a router, but it doesn't have VPN functionality
  • Foundry VTT that I run up on my gaming machine when needed

I will probably also be upgrading my gaming PC in the next few months, so my current rig will probably be put behind the TV to use as a server and for couch gaming.

Info/recommendations I would like:

  • VPN software (I want to VPN INTO my network) My goto would be wireguard, is that still a good option? (I assume I just port forward the VPN ports to the server?)
  • Private cloud/File server: I both want to be able to occasionally (but permamently) host files publicly, but still have the main store be available on the local network only. Is that going to be two pieces of software, or just one?
  • Is a local video streaming app actually useful for a rare watcher of movies etc, or can they be streamed directly from the file server? its something that I see a lot of people talk about, but don't really understand why...
  • Is Docker the way to go for everything? or just install on the machine directly?
  • ~Piracy~ VM - Enabling the virtualisation stuff for Docker mostly breaks virtualbox (at least on windows) any recommendations for how to nicely run a VM alongside docker (if that's the recommendation)?
  • Should/Could I be hosting anything else? Foundry will probably be on there. I don't feel like I have a use for smart home stuff, so home assistant wouldn't be much use etc.
