This sounds like a good reminder to never trust incoming communication beyond ending the conversation and calling the company/person/whatever directly using a # you already have for them/a number from their confirmed website.

Even renting a house it’s in my lease I can’t use a window unit. Which sucks because our swamp cooler outputs into the living room in a way that makes it very difficult to get its air into the second bedroom.

Ah yes the tried and true “fuck reforming them when it’s cheaper to rejoice in their death” argument. Yup, clearly no better way to have handled this than dead kids and paying to incarcerate someone for life. Definitely no cheaper way to have helped these kids to a better life nope no sir-ee….

Looking at the septa lines being possibly cut it’s gonna screw over a lot of people, in areas where cars are already problematically dense. It’s gonna be a shitshow

It looks like the Shelly device initiates contact with home assistant you may be able to just tell it to talk to the same api endpoint (following is for 2nd gen devices):

In this case, navigate to the local IP address of your Shelly device, Settings >> Connectivity >> Outbound WebSocket and check the box Enable Outbound WebSocket, under server enter the following address:

ws:// + Home_Assistant_local_ip_address:Port + /api/shelly/ws (for example: ws://192.168.1.100:8123/api/shelly/ws), click Apply to save the settings. In case your installation is set up to use SSL encryption (HTTPS with certificate), an additional s needs to be added to the WebSocket protocol, too, so that it reads wss:// (for example: wss://192.168.1.100:8123/api/shelly/ws).

Assuming you are buying a new unit I’d try following that guide after backing up and seeing if it updates normally. The first gen devices used a different protocol, full instructions for both can be found here.

That sounds like most administrators/departments heads where I’ve worked over the years. Always looking for the way to look good with the least amount of effort.

I’m sure it has, my main thought is this focus on AI is essentially deflecting from systemic issues and without actually addressing those the problem will continue to get worse with or without AI.

I understand the fear of technology stunting critical thinking but LLMs are pretty darn recent, what happened to these highschoolers the last 14-15 or so years that left them with little to no reading or critical thinking skills? Where is the talk of parental involvement, teachers and educational systems prior to this?

Teachers have an incredibly hard job but the constant stream of these articles feels more like they’re trying to pass off the failures of our education system and failures of parents/society for decades onto the admittedly retarded technology that’s very recently entered existence…

I miss the glass and translucent looks, the flat boring look of today is very bleak and dystopian looking imo. Don’t miss vista though, that was what started my move to Linux (with Compiz fusion and as many of the ridiculous effects as my poor $300 laptop could handle).

For the tomatoes you might see if there’s canning groups on Facebook for your area? It takes a metric fuck-ton of tomatoes to make a can of sauce so they’d likely be able to use quite a bit of them.

The way they’re going it’s not gonna be long before we start hearing about hospitals not being required to treat you in the ER without proof you can pay to keep costs down

0% interest is not really accurate in the laypersons sense though. They make money off of “fees” that totally aren’t interest, they’re just the equivalent to payday loan type interest if you calculated the rate. Some are within affordability if you pay quickly but skyrocket after the 90 day mark as well.

 

Amid a massive recall in 2021, the medical device maker Philips raced to overcome troubling questions about its replacement machines as customers waited for help.

 

Hopefully this means he’ll be getting healthy soon

 

Some of the highlights:

OpenSSH has been updated to version 9.5p1.

OpenSSL has been updated to version 3.0.12, a major upgrade from OpenSSL 1.1.1t in FreeBSD 13.2-RELEASE.

The bhyve hypervisor now supports TPM and GPU passthrough.

FreeBSD supports up to 1024 cores on the amd64 and arm64 platforms.

ZFS has been upgraded to OpenZFS release 2.2, providing significant performance improvements.

It is now possible to perform background filesystem checks on UFS file systems running with journaled soft updates.

Experimental ZFS images are now available for AWS and Azure.

The default congestion control mechanism for TCP is now CUBIC.

And much more…​

II. Problem Description

Some of the Sanitizers cannot work correctly when ASLR is enabled. Therefore, at the initialization of such Sanitizers, ASLR is detected via procctl(2). If ASLR is enabled, it is first disabled, and then the main executable containing the Sanitizer is re-executed, after printing an appropriate message.

However, the Sanitizers work by intercepting various function calls, and by mistake the already-intercepted procctl(2) function was used. This causes an internal error, which usually results in a segfault.

III. Impact

Binaries linked to AddressSanitizer (using -fsanitize=address), MemorySanitizer (using -fsanitize=memory) or ThreadSanitizer (using -fsanitize=thread) can crash at startup with a segfault, if ASLR is enabled. Other binaries are not affected.

IV. Workaround

If ASLR is enabled system-wide, the problem can be worked around by running the specific binary with proccontrol(1), to temporarily disable ASLR for only that program. For example:

proccontrol -m aslr -s disable /path/to/example_program

 

II. Problem Description

A check did not test both the dnode itself and its data for dirtiness. This provides a very small window of time while a file is being modified where the dirtiness check can falsely report that the dnode is clean. If this happens a hole may incorrectly be reported where data was written.

III. Impact

If an access occurs while a file is being modified and a hole is incorrectly reported, the data may instead be interpreted as zero bytes. Any application which checks for holes may be affected by this issue; if this occurs during a file copy it will result in a corrupt copy that retains the incorrect data. Note that the source file remains intact (a subsequent read will return the correct data).

IV. Workaround

Setting the vfs.zfs.dmu_offset_next_sync sysctl to 0 disables forcing TXG sync to find holes. This is an effective workaround that greatly reduces the likelihood of encountering data corruption, although it does not completely eliminate it. Note that with the workaround holes will not be reported in recently dirtied files. See the zfs(4) man page for more information of the impact of this sysctl setting.

The workaround should be removed once the system is updated to include the fix described in this notice.

 

and HEVC as the only video decoding. Kind of dissapointing as using a graphical display remains the worst part of the rpi systems

 

A Texas prisoner who is facing execution having been sent to death row on the basis of “shaken baby syndrome”, a child abuse theory that has been widely debunked as junk science, has had his petition to the US supreme court denied.

The country’s highest court issued its denial on Monday morning giving no explanation. Robert Roberson, 56, who was sent to death row in 2003 for shaking his two-year-old daughter Nikki to death, had appealed to the justices to take another look at his case focusing on the largely discredited forensic science on which his conviction was secured.

The court’s decision leaves Roberson’s life in jeopardy. Having come within four days of execution in 2016, he has already exhausted appeals through Texas state courts and must now rely on the mercy of the Republican governor Greg Abbott who rarely grants clemency.

“Robert Roberson is an innocent father who has languished on Texas’s death row for 20 years for a crime that never occurred and a conviction based on outdated and now refuted science,” the prisoner’s lawyer, Gretchen Sween, said.

 

Good afternoon everyone! The bot apparently didn't like a few things with the new schedule but it looks like I have it together now. I'll be back to check on it before game time.
