What’s a better analogy then, sensei?
Schneider Electric APC Back-UPS 1500VA, 900W.
They power on self-test okay, but go on to just fail to switchover during outages. I’m still trying to figure out if it is a factor of cumulative time, running hours, or they’re only good for a fixed number of power failures. And whether its the battery or the UPS device itself.
It feels like crashing your car, and then the airbags go off after you’re already mangled and bleeding out.
Retail UPS batteries don’t even last a single year, in my experience. The weekly brownouts and momentary blackouts probably aren’t helping.
At this point, I’m just thinking of building my own with a charge controller, inverter and a bank of car batteries.
Consider running some kind of file integrity monitoring. samhain, tiger, tripwire, to name a few.
considering containerization, but so far, I find it not worth foregoing the benefits I get of a single package manager for the entire server
Just do MAC with either AppArmor or SELinux.
Ah, yes, dreaming about hearing your neighbors through walls, being at the mercy of an owner’s association, and having no functional yard to speak of. I’m sure everyone will be on board with that.
There are portals scattered throughout the land which will only respond to the presence of the sacred fedstones. Once you’ve gathered all of the fedstones, lay them out before a portal and step through. Only those brave enough leave our realm know what secrets the great Fediverse holds.
People are only just now cutting Disney? A little late to the party, guys.

There is no best. Only least worst. Pick your poison:
AMD: Libre driver stack, require firmware blobs.
NVidia: Proprietary driver stack (kernel driver component slowly being opened), proprietary firmware exists in ROM on card so doesn’t need to be loaded at runtime.
Intel: Libre driver stack, same firmware issue as with NVidia, GPU performance generally sucks because iGPU constraints
I would say, in order from least-worst to most-worst:
AMD
Intel
NVidia
Others that I have considered, but are hopeless pipe dreams
Matrox - old, deprecated, dead, no longer in business?
S3 Chrome - assimilated into Centaur/VIA technologies, later bought out by Intel
Mali - don’t even kid yourself
Software rendering - you must be desperate
Aspeed and other 2D framebuffer solutions - good luck
Any and every “open source GPU” initiative - always dead in the water. NLnet recently pulled funding from LibreSOC because the lead dev spent more time begging for e-gold than doing any developmental work.
Leave it to conservatives to select something that demands a phone number.
I’m so glad I grew up when I did and got to experience video games before they began injecting overt political messaging into games.
The New Yorker launched a redesigned home page in late 2023, having reached a similar conclusion.
Oh boy let’s check it out.
newyorker.com attempts to load js and frames from eight third party domains. Among them;
“conde.digital” – I am assuming that means conde as in conde nast AKA reddit DNA… and we all know what happens to anything reddit touches.
“condenast.digital” above confirmed. I can almost feel the bile welling in my throat.
“cookielaw.org” - probably to serve cookie consent notices to the plebs who fail to block cookies and other trash.
“doubleclick.net” - known malware
“googletagmanager.com” - so that google can keep track of all their cattle.
And yet all of their articles are perfectly readable in plain HTML formatting, as expected. Not that I would ever spend any time reading articles from whatever this place is.
Block both javascript and CSS. Most of those nags are implemented via some combination of the two.

Dystopia is real
Only a few more steps until “Google Government”

But lately just a mix of DS emulation, Arx Libertatis and Minetest. Boring maybe, but it’s what brings me joy.
