Sometimes when my wife has to deal with hard decisions about family things, I listen but then have to tell her I'm not sure what would be the best way to handle it is. I recommend her to ask her therapist because her therapist was a social worker and has dealt with some of the situations she chooses to face.
I can be overly cautious and not want to offer any thoughts that might lead to a bad outcome.
Sometimes we explore chatgpt for answers together, but it can be awful for that. I'm glad you have a friend to talk about an insecurity with.

I've had lots of bad advice from friends or family that I have to just ignore, and that can eventually make me want to stop talking to people about those issues. I am a little too stoic and lean on thinking I should just toughen up.

If you have a partner it's definitely important to be able to talk to them in a deep way, if they are short and it seems off, it might be good to see if you can extract what really might be making them act that way. Everyone has their scars.

The article doesn't say that. It says that most arent spending above 43% on housing. It doesn't dig into that, likely on purpose.

I get it.

There are quite a few areas on the linux desktop that show obvious signs of too many choices and loose integration making it an unpolished experience.

Outside of niches like online forums, people seem to think GUIs and marketing are what make something professional.

In reality outside of individual use you really want to avoid GUIs in configuration so that you can be consistent. You shouldnt have to dig down into menus and click through lots of screens to do comparisons or set something up. Thats really where Microsoft's ecosystem is weakest right now. WinRM and powershell remoting lack polish in the same way wifi or bluetooth management in the linux desktop does

You cant fully setup winrm with gpo, for example listener addresses get bound the first time its enabled with gpo and then its just stuck at that. If the system has it's ip changed you have to disable the gpo to make any changes and when you get it fixed it reverts when the policy is applied again

Microsoft only seems to care about how things will be managed in their cloud now and all products for managing things locally are showing some rot. Sccm -> mecm -> mem is terrible, theyve even ending all training for tools for on premises management. All they do is azure training and certs now.

You can absolutely go as nuts or more nuts with this on linux. You can do all kinds of hardening steps, and centrally deploy the policies with push or pull. Microsoft has even moved towards dsc (desired state configuration).

Other languages behind reverse proxies from apache httpd or nginx do not have the same memory hit. You can still blame php. Not my fault they tied their language to the webserver in a way that uses tons of extra memory.

In congested cities if you don't enter the intersection when its not completely clear then you'll have to wait ~40 minutes for a chance to go across. Waymo's riders have that as one of the biggest frustrations. Then theres a gridlock behind them.

There's no winning with cars.

I'm glad you checked it out. It's quite a fun and absurd series.

[-] thews@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago

Have you also listened to He who fights with monsters?

That series is pretty great and I had never gotten into the litrpg or isekai genres before then.

If you google "skr mini e3 v2 pinout" you can find 5v and ground pins. The question is how much load is already on it's 5v regulator and how much are you adding.

You can power the pi from a buck converter or from whatever else.

They apparently make an addon 5v buck converter for that board.

Using a multimeter could help avoid frying more stuff.

Emulate a block device and reference it to the cloud api, unless im missing something.

did you figure it out?

I haven't checked into the code yet, but I imagine you can map out what all is in memory and force more aggressive garbage collection to find some middle ground.
