Haven't had to use port forwarding for gaming in like 30 or so years, so I just looked up Nintendo's website...

Within the port range, enter the starting port and the ending port to forward. For the Nintendo Switch console, this is port 1024 through 65535

LMAO, no thanks, that's not happening.

For your question, you could likely route everything through a tunnel and manage the port forwarding on the other end of the tunnel.

If you come to me with 2 juice boxes and offer me one while drinking from one of them... I would fully expect to get to non-drank-from one instead the one you just sipped on.

My guess is when taken without context, the title kinda reads like something from a MAGA outlet.
Now, the article obviously isn't, but sadly, not everyone reads articles.

I'd love to switch between shooting blanks and livefire on-demand.

Microsoft starts bundling Windows 11 with its 'PC optimizer' app in some regions (www.neowin.net)

PC optimizers are not a new concept, and they have been around for quite a while. Nowadays, many consider them unnecessary, but having an official program made by Microsoft that is capable of (allegedly) speeding up your PC may sound quite appealing....

This is the same kind of thing I'd expect when a once nice android app gets bought out by a company like tencent.
Bundle a battery manager and RAM optimizer bs in the file browser or something, fill it with ads, maybe they could have microtransactions for some of the "features".

Yea, I'm still stuck on Windows at work for the foreseeable future as I don't control that too much.
Otherwise, for personal stuff that I do control, they really can get fucked.

My wife had never used any desktop OS other than Windows before, but I switched her to Pop!_OS and it's gone fine. Certainly not any worse than between 2 Windows versions, but at least now there's no bullshit and things are actually customizable. (Her words)

You'd think so, but no.

It can be in git even if you're not doing 'config as code' or 'infrastructure as code' yet/ever.
Even just a text file with notes in markdown is better than nothing. Can usually be rendered, tracked, versionned.
You can also add some relevant files as needed too.

Like, even if your stuff isn't fully automated CI/CD magic, a copy of that one important file you just modified can be added as necessary.

On top of all the other good answers, someone can also just SIM hijack your phone number by social engineering your phone provider into activating a new SIM card.
And it's usually much easier than one would think/hope.

Make sure you backup your vault and/or keep the backup "paper codes" somewhere safe.
Aegis, for example, can automatically backup an encrypted vault.

Hmmm... I do have audio coming out of a guest VM under proxmox, but I'm passing through a whole GPU which includes audio through its HDMI.

The on-board audio might not be in an iommu group that can be passed without breaking something else, which would likely prevent booting the host correctly.

Honestly, I think I'd just go with a USB dongle for the audio. Easier to passthrough, likely better audio quality too and shouldn't be too expensive.
You can pass either a USB device id or a port (or group of ports, depending on how it's grouped)

InEnduringGrowStrong ,
@InEnduringGrowStrong@sh.itjust.works avatar

In my case, I think the onboard audio device is in the same group as the motherboard chipset, which would explain the host crashing when passing through.

InEnduringGrowStrong ,
@InEnduringGrowStrong@sh.itjust.works avatar

Also, the crackling might be something about the sampling rate.
It's been a while since since I poked around with audio, but I vaguely remember changing the default sampling rate and restart pulseaudio or something like that.

@InEnduringGrowStrong@sh.itjust.works avatar

tell the actual difference between those things. It’s not all subjective.

Can you provide a source for that?
No, not this one.

Alright, so, the original rule 1 that was referenced in the first modlog when you posted this to /c/worldnews refers to the community rules for /c/worldnews :

Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
    Post news articles only
    Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
    Title must match the article headline
    Not United States Internal News
    Recent (Past 30 Days)
    Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners

You then broke rule 2 on /c/technology, which I think a mod explained well.

On /c/youshouldknow, you were also breaking rule 1, which is a different rule 1 than before becaise it's a different community.

/c/youshouldknow community's rule 1:

Rule 1- All posts must begin with YSK

Like... every community has their own rules.
Here, you lucked out and don't break any obvious rules whether you read them or not.

How to constructively protest against AI voice transcription at work?

As a medical doctor I extensively use digital voice recorders to document my work. My secretary does the transcription. As a cost saving measure the process is soon intended to be replaced by AI-powered transcription, trained on each doctor's voice. As I understand it the model created is not being stored locally and I have no...

Ironically, GPT can kinda get you started here...

To present your case effectively to your bosses and colleagues, focus on simplifying the technical aspects and emphasizing the potential risks associated with using a cloud-based AI transcription service:

  1. Privacy Concerns: Explain that using a cloud-based solution means entrusting sensitive biometric data (your voice) to a third-party provider. Emphasize that this data could potentially be accessed or misused without your consent.

  2. Security Risks: Highlight the risks of data breaches and unauthorized access to your voice recordings stored in the cloud. Mention recent high-profile cases of data breaches to illustrate the potential consequences.

  3. Voice Cloning: Explain the concept of voice cloning and how AI algorithms can be trained to mimic your voice using the data stored in the cloud. Use simple examples or analogies to illustrate how this could be used for malicious purposes, such as impersonation or fraud.

  4. Lack of Control: Stress that you have no control over how your voice data is used or stored once it's uploaded to the cloud. Unlike a local solution where you have more oversight and control, a cloud-based service leaves you vulnerable to the policies and practices of the provider.

  5. Legal and Ethical Implications: While you acknowledge that there may be existing recordings of your voice online, emphasize that knowingly contributing to the creation of a database that could potentially be used for unethical or illegal purposes raises serious concerns about professional ethics and personal privacy.

  6. Alternative Solutions: Suggest alternative solutions that prioritize privacy and security, such as using local AI transcription software that does not upload data to the cloud or implementing stricter data protection policies within your organization.

By framing your concerns in terms of privacy, security, and ethical considerations, you can help your bosses and colleagues understand the potential risks associated with using a cloud-based AI transcription service without coming across as paranoid. Highlighting the importance of protecting sensitive data and maintaining control over personal information should resonate with individuals regardless of their level of technical expertise.

    If the babie is death then its not an abortion

    Except that plenty of surgical abortions happen because the baby is already dead in the mother's uterus though.
    Being dead doesn't magically teleport it away and it needs to be taken out for the mother to survive.
    Which is, medically speaking, the same procedure as a surgical abortion.

    InEnduringGrowStrong ,

    The states that ban surgical abortions don't care about that and ban the procedures in talking about.

    That was a pretty funny and confusing conversation.
