While I can't speak for other states (though I'd be surprised if they were different), power bills in Victoria are split into supply and usage. Eg each day costs 90c, then 30c per kw/h. So you could eliminate the usage…
I really liked the land usage discussion. That (for the US) if you took the land currently being used to grow crops for ethanol based motor fuels. Turned them into solar farms you'd cover 80% of current grid demand. I…
This is something I've never understood. If consent is remaining on the line after a message "this call may be recorded (for training and quality purposes)", the simple answer is in places where you have to have consent…

I'm now at the point I research parts to see where the LED control is stored. My keyboard LED is controlled internally without software. My mouse requires software to set, but there is open source rgb control software…

I had a perfectly functional Galaxy A71 this time last year, still had great battery life, etc. I had to replace it because it only has 5 years of support. Samsung offers 7 years of support but only on their top tier…
Wow! Never thought I'd see my little Alma Mater on Hacker News!
Mine is so slow to become initially responsive. It (thankfully) comes on to whatever source / channel it was on when turned off, but it takes a good 15 seconds till you can change a channel, closer to 30 seconds to…
Recent switcher to macos. I can't find a way to separately set mouse acceleration and scroll wheel momentum. I use a trackball for RSI reasons, in order to get across the screen in a single flick means high sensitivity,…
Great post. And if you want some control support for your cronjobs perl App::Cronjob[1] can provide features such has exclusive locking, so a job won't run if the previous run is still going, or provide a timeout, and…

To those who haven't heard how colossal the size of OpenAIs contracts are. 900,000 wafers monthly. Tom's hardware estimates that is equal to 40% of global dram production capacity.…
Didn't Microsoft drop 16 bit application support in Windows 10? I remember being saddened by my exe of Jezzball I've carried from machine to machine no longer working.
This is an aside. Yesterday I was in a shopping centre (ie a mall) and a bunch of kids ran through the food court, maybe 10 of them all around the 9-12 A grumpy lady shouted at them "kids you shouldnt be running!" I…
You joke. I still use an old winamp 2.81 on my windows machine. About 15 years ago I came across some plugin dll files that added flac support. The only issue I ever run into is some non ascii characters in ID3 tags…
It all depends on how the flow is implemented. If it's a one time unlock, eg like developer mode then hopefully it'll just work. If it's a big long flow per install... Yikes, that's not much better than adb install
That's similar to me, I started using FreeNAS back in the 9.x days. At the time the FreeNAS documentation recommend installing to a usb drive. This proved unreliable, but dedicating a drive to it was silly given it…
Interesting, that's been the opposite of my experience. My Mum converted her homes down lights to LEDs over a decade ago. Hasn't lost a single one. I moved into my current house 5 years ago, haven't lost a single one…

Funnily enough, one of the things we were recommended was a pack of mini nut butter jars. Made specifically for the purpose of being a easy way to expose little ones to a variety of nuts before they could eat the nuts…
