Yelling into empty spaces isn't exclusive to old cats. I know of at least two who do it just to hear themselves yell.

I have the att bgw-320 as well. Very excited for when the hardware for the bypass comes around.

I tried using the IP passthrough setup on it, but it ended up causing all sorts of slowdowns that I had troubles diagnosing. I was using the nanopi r4s with a WiFi AP when I had this issue. Make sure to look into compatibility with ATTs IP passthrough is not total passthrough so you might have to dig into the details to make sure it all works together.

It's old enough to drink now. I'm sorry for your age, but that's an old movie.

Is this a bug, or is it actually just limited to the transcode speed? I would love to read the incident/bug report about this.

That huge chunk of learning required for arch when you've never used Linux before is really hard to imagine when you have years of experience working Linux under your belt. That does not mean it doesn't exist for new users though.

That shit's complex and long. Much as I appreciate the sentiment of "the distro doesn't matter" I really can't agree.

If you tell a child that something they want to happen is up to someone else, that child will spend the next month repeating the exact same questions in an effort to convince that adult to do the thing the child wants to happen.

The author sicced the child on the child's uncle, leaving the uncle with no peace for at least the next whole afternoon visit with the child.

Very neat.

It's also nice to have a reminder about choosing hardware for now and for future choices as well. I'm still on an nvidia 1080 but I'll likely use amd next go around.

Yeah. It's a lot easier to slip out without saying anything, and apologize after if they ask, than it is to risk your appointment being missed.

If you can, just walk out. If you know they're going to ask (after or before) have a quick, simple, and mostly true lie prepared. You're going to grab lunch real quick since you've been busy all day with the basement, you are headed out to get useful stuff for the basement and do they have any ideas for anything specific, etc. Bonus points for actually also doing the thing you said you were doing.

Which I totally supported right up until my yard got a flea infestation, and they kept jumping on my legs whenever I walked outside. I'm honestly really grateful they didn't move into my house from the lawn.

I still do support having native lawns, but I also believe in informed decision making, so make sure to do a little research before committing to a native lawn. My neighbor keeps a colony of cats and I likely won't be able to safely have a native yard until they're gone.

Nope. SD cards can do terabytes now. Walking away with it is probably the easiest part of the whole heist plan.

Getting around the obscure hardware and software DRM schemes, moving that much data quick enough that you don't have to make two trips, getting the knowledge required to do all that... I figure those would probably be harder.

I'm on fedia.io and I've been enjoying it. I left kbin after they had major spam problems a couple months ago, and my volunteer mod application was ignored.

Worst part is, given the lack of leverage, that whip might cause less damage, and possibly even do what the driver thinks it will; speed up the enslaved people. But it won't be for the reasons the slaver expected it to.
