Not everything is a file either. I don’t see many complaints about that

systemd is great

Maybe that’s a really bright street lamp behind the cat

It’s so funny how you can crash the whole Windows desktop by mounting a network share, disconnecting from the network and trying to access it.

Found that at a previous job where technicians would frequently connect and disconnect from networks. Also, it’s impossible to unmount such a share from explorer or PowerShell. Only the old CMD tool works

You can use AMDVLK with the mesa just fine

Their reasoning is literally the second sentence on that page.

Note however that the 10.Y.Z release chain represents the “cleanup” of the codebase, so it should be accepted that 10.Y.Z breaks all compatibility, at some point, with previous Emby-compatible interfaces, and may also break compatibility with previous 10.Y releases if required for later cleanup work

Any 10.Y.Z release is cleanup and can include breaking changes. That’s been the case for 10.9 and 10.10 already btw.

Yeah, I also use that, but it’s not quite as easy as the others. Either you’re open to the whole network or you need some form of external key management to add/remove peers from your network.

You always have to learn the processes in a new company, this is just part of that. And if they don’t give you the explanations, training and time to learn, that’s a good sign you wouldn’t want to be at this company.

Maybe also speak to some of your new colleagues, whether they had similar trouble and see if you can improve the process for the next person.

A bunch really, Headscale with Tailscale client, Nebula VPN, Netmaker, Zerotier.

This is the database rework that’s been in progress for a while to remove all the bad inherited database code from when the forked Emby. No more SQL statements in code or plugins, any DB access now goes through the core library. There are a few blog posts in their website with more details.

Oh, that’s disappointing. I was thinking of eventually using Storj as a second s3 endpoint for backups in addition to Backblaze.

You can have a dynamic language that is strongly typed to disallow stuff like this. Like Python for example

These kinds of philosophical questions are easily defeated by asking “does it matter though?”

RISC vs CISC doesn’t really matter. Both have heavily borrowed from each other. The big differences are design goals, x86 processors are targeting higher power processing with few very fast cores while Arm and Risc V mostly target embedded and low power computing or a huge number of smaller cores.

Here’s a great blog post by one of the people working on it in KDE.

TLDR: typical brightness settings don’t include the viewing environment and this is very much a work in progress point in KDE.

I’ve seriously considered installing a small rescue system on all my devices.
