If you’re on Debian, it’s the tried and true method. The config is dead simple for most upgrades, just un-comment the line in the config file next to the type of upgrades you want, stable or testing. It can take some debugging if you have a package with it’s own APT repo. It’ll just ignore those updates by default.

unattended-upgrades is annoying? How so?

For Unifi devices you setup a Virtual Network then assign the guests to that. https://help.ui.com/hc/en-us/articles/115000166827-UniFi-Hotspot-Portal-and-Guest-WiFi

Ever hear of the fable “The boy who cried wolf”?

One catch is that you have to assume it’s gonna be sending data to China or at least have a hidden backdoor, possibly both. That may not matter depending on what they are doing.

If you want people to buy new cars every year wouldn’t you make the new cars look different? More exiting or whatever? We used to have awesome fins on the back of cars now we just get a shiny grill. “planned obscelensce” doesn’t force them to make cars that all look the same. That’s safety regulations.

Also why all the new cars suck.

We used this when we had cats: https://tabcat.com

It’s expensive up front but works pretty well and no hosting fees. Of course it’s not GPS so you kinda gotta know the general area the cat is in. But it was great for getting the cats in out of the yard. They would hide when it was time to come in until we got this. Worked ok for finding them in the neighborhood as well, just walked around pointing the remote everywhere. The collar tags are nice and small as well.

Fucking Gskill keyboard has the same issue. Maco recording buttons that are up near escape so I’d hit record without knowing it, then sometime later I’d replay it all. After the second time I just ripped the whole button off the keyboard.

Fuck that shit.

OrangePi is pretty nice. Built in 8gb eMMC module is a huge performance boost. Only $60 with case and PSU.

This is for my users, none of whom are experienced enough to do offline image editing.

Welcome to Costco, I love you

I live in a city, with a public transport system, and it’s terrible. Nobody but the poors bother with it as it takes HOURS longer than simply driving. This isn’t hyperbole, it’s actual trip times from actual trips taken.

The Netherlands are smaller and more densely populated than most US states, let alone the entire continental US. - https://imgur.com/XcYgDtt

What works for them isn’t going to work elsewhere.

With a fully functional, affordable, universal public transport system

Y’all got any of them magic carpets? They’re just as real as this mythical perfect public transport system. And cars will always be more convenient. Convenience wins every time.

Eaton. Just replaced most of our APC with them and have been pretty impressed so far.

Puts the S in HTTPS. Free. Get an ACME client for your service. https://acmeclients.com

Get an eMMC module ($10) for the Pi or buy something similar with one built-in. Much faster and more reliable.

I’d say it was the fan that solved the overheating problem, not the zip ties.

Depends what value you place on your time.

And less votes for their guy, which is the actual problem. Saying minorities can’t get an ID is pure racism. But it’s fine when they do it.
