Line no go up if consumer has autonomy and awareness. Quick, marketing drones, put up more information about our amazing and very complex and totally unique super mega ultra cloud!

✨ profits ✨

Afaik there is extremely limited storage on these bots, so the floor plan is stored server-side. No cloud, no server, no no-go capabilities.

I have bought several in the last decade. I’m techy and disabled, and wanted to help out around the house. I have bought from multiple manufacturer but only purchase their top-tier offering, as I want to replace vacuuming, not just compliment it. We have pulled the manual vac out three times in 9 years.

The cheaper ones are meh, but the expensive ones can truly replace vacuuming and mopping. My issue is that, across… 5 brands, none of them have lasted longer than 2 years, often much shorter lifespans. I recently bought a Roborock with an extended warranty from RR themselves, something none of the others offer, so I’m hoping to be using it for several years to come.

Not to support this cloud-only system, but I used to own an iR (several, actually) and they can clean the entire space, pause, and cancel/dock with physical buttons.

Though it loses a large chunk of its smarts without a connection. No floor plan retention, no room selection, no 1 pass/2 pass, no knowledge about no-go lines and zones, no adjustable suction based on room…

HDD* (hard disk drive)

But streaming is downloading. Sure, it’s not saved to the disk, but…

This might be a stupid answer, but uh… make more CRTs? There’s a niche shop for everything. Just like how new components for retro computers are made today (stuff like bootable flash cards for older stuff, creating better ways to achieve things), if there is a demand, there will be a market.

I dunno how they’d be made but someone will figure it out. But I’m sure because it’s low-demand (comparatively), it will be high price.

No, not through the dockge UI. You can do it manually with standard docker commands (I have a cron task for this) but if you want to visualize things, dockge won’t do that (yet?).

Yeah

I use Obtainium and run this (play store link) in the background/scheduled. I use their software on my machines and like it so have been running their mobile solution for a few years too.

I guess you could download the apk and then scan it before installing, manually but that would get tiring fast. I don’t know of any automated system for that.

Oof. I have my VMs getting backed up to another machine so theoretically (untested) I should be able to recover with less than a day of data loss (very minimal for this box). The annoying part would be getting it hooked up to a monitor and keyboard, since it’s under an end-table in the living room.

This is the first issue in like… 15 months? Hopefully it stays rather uneventful.

I’m always up late (it’s 5:19a), though a good bit more than usual lately. But I did the upgrade because I was anxious, had nothing to do, and there were no users utilizing the machine.

Yay, it only took 2 hours and the help of an llm since the upgrade corrupted my lvm metadata! Little bit of post cleanup and verifying everything works. Now I can go to sleep (it’s 5am).

Wasn’t that bad, but not exactly relaxing. And when my VMs threw a useless error (‘can’t start need manual fix’) I might have slightly panicked…

Yeah, for chat I’ve tried a few systems but honestly I already had signal, they understand that signal chats aren’t texting, the privacy is important to me, and most of all… why rock the boat?

It’s not self-hosted yeah yeah but not everything needs to be. Password management, todo lists, calendar and contacts, grocery lists… sure yeah. But nothing for chat really struck me. And I don’t want to teach everyone how it works just to test a ‘maybe’ alternative.

Ha, I use both wg and zt, for different situations. ZT for multi-player for old games with friends via ‘LAN’ across the WAN, wg for ‘actual’ VPN through my vps.

Though with zt I’m grandfathered on the old free tier, and they try pretty hard to get me to switch. Last time I logged in they had a full-page ‘you should upgrade to our new plans and features’. But I’m happy on the free level, just gaming.

The “not my problem lol you figure it out” mode

Plex was the reason why I learned Docker + watchtower, so that I wouldn’t have to worry about updates (work smarter not harder). Now I have like 35 containers and am comfortable with docker. 🐳

I have a few; my main site gives details about me, has a page dedicated to hating shitty companies and practices, and links to my clan’s website. Has a bunch of subdomains but it’s essentially “tell me about yourself” in webpage form.

I stopped in 2007 and haven’t looked back, and advise friends and family to do the same. This is just more ammo for the “but why” rebuttal speech, and baby, “wanting your cpu to not die” is an awfully juicy bullet.

Watching Intel fuck themselves the last decade has been an absolute delight, but this, I could almost fap to this news.

Another reason added to the CVS-receipt-long list of reasons to never buy Intel.

Thanks, Steve Intel.
