Almost all Wikipedia pages allow not only live edits but anonymous ones as well. It worked remarkably well until the hallucination machines arrived.

More details about the k-anonimity process. https://blog.cloudflare.com/validating-leaked-passwords-with-k-anonymity/

The short answer is that they download a partial list of passwords that hash to values starting with the same 5 characters as yours and then check if your password hash is in that list locally. This gives the server very little information about your password if it was not breached and more if it was (but then you should change it anyway), making an elegant compromise

I believe that came back recently! I think it's one of the desktop effects in kwin settings

That implies to me that surgeons aren't training on heavier people though which seems bad

I use bitwaarden and stratum since it has a wearos app as well and it's nice to use that for 2fa codes

Entirely unrelated, but I love how this makes it seem like magical items emit radiation that gets blocked by objects and gets detected by the geiger counter spell that is detect magic.

It's taking a video and doing aligning/stacking of the frames like you said. Not taking an actual long exposure in the sensor. Most photos on modern phone cameras in low light are done this way. There's a cool paper by google on their algorithm.

Why shutdown the homelab in the first place? Are you trying to save on power consumption?

The other idea I had was to use another lower power device spoofing the server's Mac. But it seems like it would require an ethernet hub and those don't really exist anymore.

See here and here You need like a particular temperature and the ice crystals to grow with the right orientations from the edge inward and meet in a triangle in the middle.

If you're okay programming, something like fenics or moose probably does what you need! There are GUI viewers for the results, but the equations and model setup are defined with code (usually python). You would import your mesh/cad generated with another tool

I've had a lot of regressions, almost entirely around graphics drivers. I have like the worst case scenario. A 4K laptop (also dell) with an nvidia GPU in a prime configuration with the Intel graphics. Until very recently everything was laggy or unstable or unsupported. With recent drivers things have been more fine.

I also have weird audio issues like the card sometimes selecting a non available profile when disconnected from HDMI (hence why I asked about that)

CUPS has been really stable for me. Idk

Also yeah, docks seem to expose all of the bugs, even on windows. For the longest time I couldn't get my keyboard to work if booting with a dock, and I still have weird resolution issues with booting while connected sometimes.

On an entirely different note, as far as I'm aware secure boot should have zero noticeable performance impact, and if it does, that means that something is going horribly wrong. Guides tell you yo disable secure boot because it's annoying/semis complicated to administer and makes installing out of kernel modules harder (like the nvidia drivers), not because it has a performance or stability impact on the system.

 

We were in upstate NY, and got extremely lucky with a hole in the clouds right around the sun at totality.

The red at the bottom was unexpected and very cool to see. It's a solar prominence
