nice make -j $(nproc)

I just started playing it and it’s pretty fun so far.

I made a low INT character, because playing low INT on Outer Worlds was pretty fun

unlawfulbooger ,

I haven't run into any of those, so I have no idea what that’s about, but I will! hahaha

Exactly, ansible is basically imperative, where write the steps declaratively.

Whereas nixos is more like a compiler that compiles to a working linux install.

If I added the software myprogram and a config file at /etc/myprogram.conf, that’s pretty easy in both. But if I needed to to then remove those it gets different .

With nixos it’s at easy as removing the two lines that add the program and the config file; after the next “compile”, the file is gone and myprogram is no longer available in the PATH.

With ansible you need to change the relevant step to use apt remove instead of apt install and to change the config file step in a step that removes the file.

Don’t get me wrong, ansible is still better than writing a lot of bash scripts, especially if you don’t have people with a lot of shell experience.

But tools like nixos and guix are on a whole other level.

Exactly, if we do a back of the napkin calculation:

Bitcoin

Users

There are 200 million bitcoin wallets, let’s be generous and say those are all owned by unique individuals.

Total energy consumption

Bitcoin used about 114 TWh in 2021[1]

Bitcoin currently uses about 150 TWh annually

Energy consumption per user

150 TWh / year 
————————— = 0,75 TWh / user / year
200 million users

Banking system

Users

There are over 8 billion people on the planet today, let’s assume 4 billion of them have access to the global banking system.

Total energy consumption

The global banking system used an estimated 264 TWh in 2021[1]

If we assume the same consumption increase rate for banking, that’s about 348 TWh/year currently.

Energy consumption per user

348 TWh / year 
————————— = 0,087 TWh / user / year
4.000 million users

With these numbers, bitcoin uses almost 10x the energy per user annually.

There are of course a myriad of things one can argue over whether it makes a fair comparison, none of which I feel like arguing, since this is just a really simple estimate with a lot of assumptions.

1: I used the numbers in this article uncritically, if you have better numbers you can run your own calculations.

unlawfulbooger OP ,

That’s the one, thanks!

unlawfulbooger OP ,

Exactly

And those 8 really rich guys definitely work less than 5 days a week already

unlawfulbooger ,

Yes, but so do hospitals?

That down mean that every worker has to come in 7 days a week tho, right?

unlawfulbooger ,

Are those complementary at the Great Northern Hotel?

unlawfulbooger OP ,

https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/pictrs/image/7d716f98-86e3-4151-90bd-7ecb773fa2fb.jpeg

I definitely understand; but it’s good that you are angry, because that means you are human.

unlawfulbooger OP ,

Saaame 😫

unlawfulbooger OP ,

That’s basically sort by controversial, no?

unlawfulbooger ,

The best thing is to use a different device, period.

Since the company is lord and master over the device, in theory, they can see anything you’re doing.
Maybe not decrypting wireguard traffic in practice, but still see that you’re doing non-official things on the device that are probably not allowed. They might think you’re a whistleblower or a corporate spy or something.

I have no idea where you work, but if they install a CA they’re probably have some kind of monitoring to see what programs are installed/running.

If the company CA is all you’re worried about, running a browser that uses its own CA list should be enough.

unlawfulbooger ,

That seems more sensible.

But they still can track some of the things you do (same with any untrusted wifi network:

  • all data of http traffic (i.e. non-https)
  • ip addresses you connect to
  • hostnames you connect to (if SNI is not working correctly)

It’s the primary, the party’s internal election for which candidate they want to support.

This has nothing to do with the presidential election where Biden would indeed lose if enough people refused to vote for him.

unlawfulbooger ,

True, the overton window is one helluva drug

unlawfulbooger OP ,

Exactly, I have no idea what Jesse was going on about.

Things to check:

  • does this happen on all clients for the same video(s)? (Browsers/computers/phones/tvs)
  • does this happen for all videos on the affected client(s)?

What color is the color wash?

Sounds like the video is using some kind of encoding that the client isn’t handling correctly.

unlawfulbooger ,

I’ve had a similar issue with a purple wash with HDR content; my TV wasn’t displaying it correctly but it was fine on my phone.

Unless you are transcoding a particular video, the server has nothing to do with it since it’s just sending the raw video stream.

On your PC the client probably uses the OS’s capabilities for decoding, so that depends on the hardware you have and the codecs that are installed. I can’t really help with that, but there’s gotta be more information out there.

unlawfulbooger ,

That movie is WarGames (1983)

unlawfulbooger ,

You’re good. I know one of these is definitely real, but the other one is plausible enough to make me think both are real

unlawfulbooger ,

If you want to hear someone talk about penetration testing (heh) these things:

DEF CON 27: Adventures in smart buttplug penetration testing (semi-NSFW obviously)

unlawfulbooger ,

I third Mullvad
