I just went and checked myself, it’s gone up even further and ya it’s higher than during the 1.0 release

I’ll check them out!

That does sound temping!

Interesting, I didn’t know that!

That’s cool! Yea I’ve looked at the Kobo devices. I think for me, the lower cost of the kindle, especially with the ad supported version (which I bypassed by literally never connecting it to Wi-Fi), was a big plus for me at the time. I assume Amazon subsidized some of the cost assuming you’d buy from their store. I just sideloaded all my ebooks of course.

When it dies I’ll definitely be looking for a new option.

Nah, I remember my first car I took it to Best Buy and had them install an Aux cable so I could play music from my phone. Literally never went back to radio. Not to say it’s a bad medium, I just prefer constant music without interruption.

Suggestions? I still have an early gen kindle (that was ad supported), and I jailbroke it and have been pretty happy with it ever since.

This is a great idea imo. As someone who has spent a lot of time volunteering at a shelter you can definitely learn a lot. Especially if they have some actual professionals on staff willing to share their wisdom.

Having a dog on a walk will absolutely increase the likelihood of a stray happening by to approach you though. Not saying that to scare you off or anything, but I think volunteering at the shelter will make you more confident around dogs, hopefully.

I messed around in portainer before and I think possibly OP is referring to their feature where it can watch a git repo and anytime a change occurs, it’ll try to do a pull and recreate the container.

I don’t have a concrete example but I’ve talked to an online friend who works in IT and he claims the majority of his work is just renewing and applying certificates. Now he made it sound like upper management wanted them to specifically use a certain certificate provider, and I don’t know their exact setup. I of course have mentioned certbot and letsecrypt to him but yea, he’s apparently constantly managing certs. Whether that’s due to lack of motivation to automate or upper managements dumb requests idk

Ive had an oxo burr for about 10 years now, I did replace the burrs but turns out they’re almost identical to the ones a higher end brand uses, so I ordered theirs and fit them in. I wouldn’t say I’m 100% satisfied with the grinder as a whole, the removable bean holder is a little fickle to reattach when there’s bean particles in the grinder. But hey it still works and I use it every day

Hmmm, you could just… leave them submerged in the oil? Would that protect them from the smoke? I don’t know. I’ll have to look into these “underwater” builds though because that does sound cool.

I second this. I have notifications set up via homeassistant, and if I want to view a feed I just VPN in

If we’re talking about longest span of time, not necessarily most total hours. Then it would be RuneScape. Started playing back when the wild had no protections. Then after all the changes they made, and once OSRS came out, I went to that instead. Just got my 20-year cape on rs3

Great time to. I just got into it and while I never was interested in HAM, meshtastic is fun

So like, just banning VPN provider companies? e.g. NordVPN and the like?

Seems silly to me, yea sure that would probably cut out some people. But if you’re determined enough it’s not hard to go rent a cheap VPS and roll your own VPN using wireguard.

Idk, just seems messy

I don’t know how they would effectively ban VPNs. Especially since they have so many use-cases in the business world. Have two offices you want to connect together? VPN. Want remote work employees to access company assets? VPN.

Not sure how they’d ban specific usecases of VPNs

I’ve done It before. It’s just highly dependent on the PDF. What software made the pdf? What format was it in prior to being a PDF? Is it a scanned image of text? Or does it have actual text.

Another option, that might work better, might not, though it would be more work, is use something like Microsoft Word first. Word can open a PDF and “convert” it to Word format. After that, you spend a lot of time fixing all the formatting which will probably be fucked up.

And then, once you have a nice clean Word doc, convert that to epub.

IMO everyone should read Culture Clash by Jean Donaldson. Really sets the stage for further reading into dog training, but is also great to just demystify a lot of misconceptions people have about dog behavior in general. 100% this one.

I have thought about different ways to do that. Both iOS and android have the ability to run scripts upon certain triggers such as joining a certain Wi-Fi network. (On iOS the Shortcuts app can do this). I’ve thought about using that to post to the already running mqtt broker and using that to update my system. Or I’ve thought about just snooping all the nearby Wi-Fi clients to my server, and if it detects my phone, do something similar.

Or I suppose you could turn it around, before the system decides it has an intruder, check to see if your phone is in fact at home via some method. Either scanning for it on Wi-Fi or some other way.
