This is an ad, so the computer pictured is not fictional, but it’s the HP Mediasmart ex470 (I think this joke book was even bundled with the first units)
They used really shitty processors so it’s ewaste, maybe it can be acquired for cheap and repurposed with some mini itx board
I think it depends by the manufacturer and how they programmed the charger, I got two HP ProBook that almost exclusively got used when plugged in and after a decade they can still last over two hours, instead my Thinkpad t42 with the same usage pattern now just barely holds enough for shutting down the system
if you need to buy it, for that budget i’d choose something like an used Lenovo m910q tiny that banks and offices are throwing to the landfill because Microsoft said that everyone needs to buy a new PC. Half the price, similar power consumption (in idle, otherwise much more), much more powerful, comes with nvme and sata slots, hdmi and usb 3
you can install dockge in truenas and then all your docker data is not “locked” inside their application data
Paying for using a model hosted on someone else’s computer is technically prostitution 😛
At least with self hosting if you really like that model you don’t risk that tomorrow the ai Bros change the backend with a different model (gpt5) or raise prices
Or ignore it and let Americans pay higher prices. 20% while the floor for any other country in the world is 15% is almost the same. Also, it’s not like you can purchase those chips from somewhere else.
Otherwise they risk doing like Fuji that spent millions to move production of some cameras back to Japan just to let TACO to change mind after a few weeks and get a similar tariff applied. End result: customers pay more
why not a blister like the rest of the world?
Old free images won’t be removed but since they won’t get any kind of update, are essentially useless
A man takes intimate pics and shares them without consent for his bragging rights, then of course it’s the woman to be shamed, doxxed and expelled
“Errors” every day until finally once a semester they accidentally kill some Hamas target and boast their success
for example, i browse to a completely new website that nobody ever visited. Nobody uses linux, so i go to gnome.org and first it loads because ther router/firewall never knew that URL before. Then in a few seconds gets blocked pending “ai classification”, then it gets permanently blocked because that asshole of my boss decided to block every website that offers software downloads
or, for example, i take a linux distro that literally nobody uses, when i use pacman it firstly load packages because i’m the first one to access the download server, then in the middle of downloads the firewall learns what those server does, and blocks them during download (invalid SSL due to MITM that replaces content with the “access blocked” message)
and because the blocklist is infinite, even listening to offline music gives errors when using music APIs
i wonder what’s the point of offering “free wifi” like this. It’s cheaper and gives a better customer experience to just remove the access points and say “no, we don’t have wifi” rather than “we have wifi but you need to login with facebook and you can only use it for whatsapp and to browse our website”. I heard the boss was pissed that the upstairs neighbors were “stealing” the wifi, as he saw traffic during night time
I was used to normal fortinet filter (they block porn and warez in the work net which is acceptable) but this new one seems extreme, borderline unusable. You have one chance in the router lifetime to browse an obscure website and then next time it’s already in blacklist. I think they pay some kind of subscription for ai autoclassification because there’s no way with human support it can be updated this fast
But your endpoints are already available to everyone with just a nslookup.
Maybe it’s more the permanent history of that, so if you run something like “radarr.example.com” then you wouldn’t have plausible deniability if you’re sued and the CT logs are presented as proof of your wrongdoing
I watched that movie with the expectation of watching a comedy but I was left with the realization that it’s 100% what would happen nowadays
Well I think the opposite.
Saving that one single person is great propaganda. Donald would definitely throw one million people under the bus in order to save that single individual
See the recent medicaid cut to make a few hundred billionaire friends happier/richer
In my western country, car dealers do the same in order to meet their sales target
instructed the IDF to show the passengers of the flotilla a video of the horrors of the October 7
This doesn’t remotely justify to do 1000x the same horrors over unrelated innocent people
Having a foreigner come to study in the us is a great way to extend the American influence.
Of course, there are some assholes that abuse the student visa and instead of studying they lie on the application form and launch a startup like a certain south African billionaire. That can be fixed by deporting that specific billionaire and confiscating his assets. Boom, no more need of the “big beautiful bill” or other bills named by people with dementia
LOL if 4gb of memory is pretty minimal I am curious to know that they think to be resource intensive.
The maximum memory I am willing to allocate to a lxc container dedicated to bookmark management (=something that I access twice a month) is 256mb
