300mbps down 60 mbps up.
Although aoparently fibre-to-the-premises is available… Just havent got rounf to checking if its symmetrical or worth.

Micrometers is actually so common that it has a colloquial non-SI name of “micron”

According to wiki:

The micrometre is a common unit of measurement for wavelengths of infrared radiation as well as sizes of biological cells and bacteria,[1] and for grading wool by the diameter of the fibres.[3] The width of a single human hair ranges from approximately 20 to 200 μm.

You can say 25 micrometers

DHCP problems, huh?

If you are running through walls, run some shielded cat6a and some SM fibre.
Doesnt matter what happens to the display standards. There will always be converters to rj45 and sm fibre (whereas MM fibre is essentially dead these days).

20m 1080p60 is generally fine on cheapo cables.
5m 4k60 is generally fine on cheapo cables (makes sense, 4 times the data rate: 1/4 the distance).

So yeh, an active 10m 4k60 cable makes sense.
Its all hugely dependant on the source and the sink. Some sources are weak and cheap. Some sinks are expensive and can recover data from a garbage signal.

Over

Edit:
Or is “lol” lemmys equivalent of “over”?
Lol

I think that is WIP to “wear a moderator hat”.
Luckily, multiple accounts are widely supported.
Most admins will have multiple accounts, an official-hat account and a casual account.

After some federation drama, i believe marking posts as “official” or not is in the works (as opposed to mod/admin always being official). I dont know if the “official” hat also aliases the user (so there can be a “moderator” account that any mod can assume)

At first, the redundancy of having multiple communities on different instances covering the same topics bugged me, but it’s actually a good thing because it means you’re grouped into smaller groups of humans and your voice will get heard. Rather than a few comments dominating the conversation, there are simply more conversations.

I like that take.
Except when i am subscribed to multiple similar communities so i can hear those voices. Then something happens, and i see multiple reposts of the same thing by multiple users over multiple communities.
I dont know what the middleground is.
But maybe reframing towards the “smaller voices get heard” and learning to accept “the occasional shouts as an unfortunate downside to an overall better scenario” will help me.

I feel instance admins/owners are in tune with the community to deal with the bad actors.
Instead of reddits “line goes up” mentality

Being able to check stuff once or twice a day without feeling like im missing out is nice. There are enough algorithms that i can get a slice of lemmy-life.
And there are enough algorithms to almost support my doomscrolling on a bad day

Yeu, sync has ads because the developers of sync put ads into it.
Vanilla lemmy and jerboa certainly dont.
I can imagine some instance admins considering forking lemmy and putting in ads. At the moment, most instances are run as a hobby (for free) or by contributions (ie donations from members).
The development of lemmy was funded by a VC-type thing for a while, not sure if its still active. Otherwise, its also developed thanksnto contributions

I also edge until i bleed

Yeh, tailscale is going to be the easiest and most flexible.
Other than that, its coupling directly to a messaging system that is also the communication system. So you are beholden to API changes and TOS changes.
At least with tailscale you can easily jump to headscale or wireguard with virtually 0 impact. Also allows for using a messaging system that is fit for purpose instead of whats available and free and does NAT traversal

The Q series used to be wired only. The new Q Pro series are wireless.

I use a Q6 at home and love it. I bought a k12 for work, and while its great its much noisier than the Q.
So im currently using a wired Filco at work. Which is nice, and quieter than the k12 (even tho both have silent reds).

I havent used Keychron wirelessly, so cant comment.
And I had to update the firmware to be able to use VIA, which involved a program and some scary messages. But it was straightforward.

If you have the budget for a Q Pro, then go for it. I love my Q, so I doubt you will regret it

Ive seen an uptick in twitch users offering graphics packs for streamers.
I presume some company has figured out the prompts to get AI generated emote packs, and now hire people to offer this service randomly to small/medium streamers.

I mean, i dont see anything strange.
Maybe just destroy the droplet and start fresh? Or spin up another just to test with?
Are you familiar with installing docker? I always just use docker’s convenience script to install it, and never had any problems.
You sure you havent accidentally installed docker desktop instead of docker engine? I dont know if docker has a desktop version for linux.

I keep meaning to figure out rootless mode or swap to podman

The image for the pictrs service is wrong.
No idea what it should be, but it shouldnt be docker.io/c:0.4.3

The benefit of the fusebin the plug is you can have a 1A fuse for a 1A appliance with a cable rated for 1A, and plug it into a socket rated for 10A.
If the appliance faults, then the wire doesnt catch fire.
If you dont have that, then all the wires have to be rated to 10A (or whatever the rating is).
And thats based on 1-breaker-per-socket.

If you have 2 sockets close to eachother on the opposite side of the house than the breaker panel, its easier and cheaper to wire them both together on 20A cable and a single 20A breaker. The fuses in the plug protect the 10A cable to the appliance, the 20A breaker protects the 20A cable in the wall.

Yes, you could put a fuse in the appliance (a lot have this).
But that isnt convenient for lamps, where it might be bulky to include a fuse holder and ruin the aesthetic.
Or something that deals with water, like submersible pumps or kettles.
Also, some appliances have swappable cables (IEC C13 for example). So if the appliance has an internal 10A fuse but is used with an IEC cable rated to 5A then it leaves the cable unprotected and a possible fire hazard.

A refurbished thin client from eBay. Or a refubed sff/usff.
They are pretty much the same price these days, and come with a case/PSU.
If you don’t need the GPIO and special connectors that a raspberry pi has, sff/usff is going to be cheaper, has upgradeable ram&sata and some have pcie3.0 slot.
Running pihole (let’s be honest, a huge reason people buy a pi)? Get a usff/sff, slap an SSD (probably the cost of a raspberry pi case/PSU/SD-card) in there and an intel i340-t4 4port NIC (this is extra. Can just use the onboard NIC), and install proxmox. Then run pihole in a VM. And now you have spare capacity to run a whole bunch of other fun things, with the safety net of snapshots and backups so if you mess up a config you can just roll another VM.
