Ohh… I forgot about this. If they’re still doing that then I wouldn’t recommend them.

For less tech-savvy users, I usually recommend some off-the-shelf hardware, so they have multiple people they can go to in case of issues with either the hardware or the standard built-in software (like the manufacturer, or other people that are also familiar with products from that manufacturer).

Synology used to be the best for that, but maybe not any more. A lot of brands have gotten into NAS hardware over the last year or two so I’m not sure what’s the best now!

PSMC sounds like a bootleg TSMC lol

legacy fab it opened just 19 months ago

I’d probably just get a Synology and install Immich on it.

Fibre optic is generally better for this use case, but Ethernet would work fine too. Be sure to use CMX rated cable, as it’s rated for outdoor use (uses a more durable, UV-resistant jacket, and is suitable for direct burial).

Run it in conduit so you can easily replace it in the future if needed.

Yeah, it’s standard for everyone. Even people working part time get it, pro-rated. For example, if you work 50% of the hours compared to a full-time position, you accrue 50% of the long service leave.

It’s sad there’s such a disparity between leave amounts at different employers in the USA. It really should be standardized.

I’m from Australia, where it’s mandated to get four weeks (20 days) of PTO per year, 20 weeks of paid parental leave, at least a year of unpaid parental leave, and an extra 8 weeks of PTO every 7 years (“long service leave”).

I’m living in the USA now, and am fortunate that my employer offers 21 days PTO per year. I also have unlimited sick leave, which is a strange phrase to hear as an Aussie (why would sick days be limited??)

I think you’re right - people using the paid ones want to get their money’s worth. Even on the expensive plans like Claude Code’s $100/month subscription, people often end up using the equivalent of thousands of dollars worth of API usage, which doesn’t even cover the full cost of providing the service.

The headline makes it sound like he only did this to one piece of art, but he was much busier than that:

According to the police department, Granger chewed up at least 57 of the 160 images

Maybe Canada will get all the affordable cars that the US misses out on. In Australia, there’s some good Chinese EVs from MG and BYD that are around the equivalent of US$20k including taxes.

As far as I know, this is only for the free version of ChatGPT. It costs a lot of money to run, and they’re still not profitable, so it makes sense that they want to monetize the free version. The other option is to completely shut down the free version and only have the paid one.

They’re unaffected as they pay for the OpenAI API (there’s no free API) which is a separate product to ChatGPT. This change only affects ChatGPT, and I think only the free version.

Linux will try SIGQUIT first, and you can immediately kill a process in Windows too. taskkill /f /im firefox.exe

kill dash nine, no more CPU time

I was going to ask why they need to pay given you can download a full copy of Wikipedia’s database for free, but it makes sense that AI training is stressing their download servers and therefore they want to receive compensation for it.

I’m still undecided about AI, but non-profits receiving payment from big companies that take advantage of their work is always a positive thing.

Linus Torvalds is probably clever enough to create something like that. The Linux kernel sure could take advantage of it.

I know this comment is a bit old, but do you have any recommendations on how to learn about building custom Odoo modules? I’m an experienced developer (with over 20 years experience) but am new to Odoo. I’ve learnt some things by looking at the code for OCA modules (I had to debug an issue with the Plaid bank statement integration) but am interested in any resources you found useful.

Samba is good too, but needs some config tweaking to hit top speeds on faster networks (5Gbps, 10Gbps or more). Probably not relevant here since the Pi only has a gigabit Ethernet port.

I was thinking more about metadata for the torrent client, or for other apps, like Plex or whatever else is running on the Pi. Logs, but also databases (if they store any) and things like that.

Get rid of the SD card and only use the SSDs. It’s a common point of failure with Pis - SD cards aren’t designed for frequent writes.

Consider using NFS instead of sshfs for more reliability.
