A lot of these devices are Ethernet-only to simplify things. Ethernet is more reliable, people that use KVM/IPMI for remote management usually use it via Ethernet, and it means they don’t need to bundle wifi drivers with their OS. Also, some of them are powered using PoE (Power over Ethernet) to avoid needing a separate power cable.

You could plug it into a cheap wifi bridge to make it wireless.

They have a free trial account that lets you do 100 searches. It’s worth trying out at least.

Have you tried Kagi?

That’s essentially how the Roman calendar was named for six out of the 10 months:

• Martius: (Mars)
• Aprilis: (from aperire, “to open”)
• Maius: (Maia, goddess)
• Junius: (Juno, goddess)
• Quintilis: (Fifth)
• Sextilis: (Sixth)
• September: (Seventh)
• October: (Eighth)
• November: (Ninth)
• December: (Tenth)

Of course.

Resize your Windows partition to be smaller, then install Linux in the newly-freed space. You can boot into GParted to resize the partition.

If you have enough space for it, just keep it in the PC.

While we’re changing the calendar, can we rename September through December so they’re not off by two?

Septem, Octo, Novem and Decem are the Latin words for 7, 8, 9 and 10 respectively, but they’re actually the 9th, 10th, 11th and 12th months of the year. This is because the Roman calendar was originally only 10 months, but Julius Caesar inserted two new months in the middle, without renaming the last four.

Maybe the oldest tech debt in existence - the calendar was changed in 45 BC.

This. Sunday is part of the weekend, not the weekstart.

Practically everyone should know SI, or have at least heard of it before. It’s the standard system of measurement used in most of the world. It includes base units for time (seconds), distance (meters), mass (kilograms), electric current (amps), temperature (Kelvin), amount of a substance (mole) and intensity of light (candela), plus a bunch of units derived from these.

It’s practically only the USA that doesn’t use some of three units (for example, preferring feet over meters)

ISO is a standards body. They define a bunch of standards. One of the more well-known ones is ISO 8601, which defines standards for dates and times. It specifies that weeks start on Monday.

In the context of Debian, “stable” means it doesn’t change often. Debian stable doesn’t have major version changes within a particular release.

Unstable has major changes all the time, hence the name.

I think testing is a good middle ground. Packages are migrated from unstable to testing after ~10 days of being in unstable, if no major bugs are found.

You can somewhat avoid the issue of old packages by running the testing version instead of stable, but in that case you should ensure you get security updates from unstable: https://github.com/khimaros/debian-hybrid

I used to run some systems on Debian testing and never had any issues.

Once you’re past that, the userbase is smaller than Ubuntu’s

Is it? I feel like there’s far more Debian systems in the world, if you include servers.

This applies to a lot of services. Only expose something publicly if the public need to access it, and make sure it’s properly secured. If it’s just for you or your family (or friends) to use, use a peer-to-peer / mesh VPN like Tailscale.

I’m not sure - I haven’t looked into the implementation yet. I haven’t actually seen this tagging feature in the UI so I’m not sure how to even use it.

It looks like Lemmy 1.0 (currently in alpha testing) will support filtering by keywords, too: https://join-lemmy.org/news/2025-12-24_-_Lemmy_Release_v0.19.15_and_Testing_for_1.0

Tags would be useful for so many things - much more than content filters. For example, posts in a world news community could be tagged with the name of the country.

Having said that, it looks like tags were added in July 2025: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/pull/5869. I didn’t know about this!

I think what’s missing is filtering by tags.

PSMC sounds like a bootleg TSMC lol

legacy fab it opened just 19 months ago

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.

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.

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.
