Interesting. I'm having trouble with my amd laptop stuttering a lot. It is worse under load of course, but even without any I can see random input/output lag.

I wonder if it the root cause could be the same.

Can you elaborate on your "CPU drivers" issue?

Can you elaborate how you find gas more convenient that an induction stove?

I've worked in a kitchen with gas and I found it awful. It was harder to clean, you had to be really careful to not burn yourself when you had to do a quick wipedown. Making sure not only that you turned it off, but that anyone else there wasn't forgetful either.

Induction like I have at home now is so convenient. I have no worries. It responds super quick to temp changes, it automatically detects if I have something on the stove or not, so no fear of wasting power. You can't burn yourself. The surface is flat and super easy to keep clean.

Yes, that is why I brought it up

It's nice to see more collaboration. With the apparent interest in bevy, is there any chance that you will try to integrate the UI project xilem with bevy? Seems like it could be a great fit, and if it happens before the bevy project chooses a direction the two project could probably both benefit. Bevy for the great xilem architecture and xilem from the big community of developers that bevy has

I swapped to caddy + conduit after running traefik + synapse in a docker container. Not having to deal with postgres db upgrades and docker is nice.

It is a little bit buggier because clients dont always adhere to the spec.

I'm sticking with conduit, but I wouldn't recommend it yet unless every user is ok with random bugs.

edit: I should say I've run conduit for a few months and before that we used synapse for maybe 2 years

wow I'm really happy in-terminal advertisements didn't take off. Advertisers sure want to infect every aspect of our lives.

Post needs to have the title updated. Even though it is called OpenMower it is not open source, it uses the CC-BY-NC-SA license. The readme of the project has been updated to remove the claim that it is.

Of course a person is allowed to license their software however they like. However, I might also note that creative commons is not recommended as a license for code: https://creativecommons.org/faq/#can-i-apply-a-creative-comm....

The comparison between a long ad break and a single minor product placement isn't a fair, I've never seen a single 5 minute ad for a car on TV. But I guess it does answer the question of how some people think.

Netflix shows are already filled with ads. I don't understand all these people who think they have an ad free experience watching on netflix.

I got bitten by this bundle of reviews thing. Amazon was made available in my country some time ago. I went on there to buy video capture device to help convert my parents old tapes to video. I found the device listing I was looking for, with good reviews. Placed my order.

Then a counterfeit showed up, completely different from the spec sheet and the image on the listing.

I filed a complaint, but they wouldn't give me my money back unless I paid to ship it back to half way across the continent, where they sent it from. Despite them just sending me a piece of electronic waste rather than the real product. Nor would they do anything about the listing.

Never looked back at their scam website again.
