I used option 1 (KeePass synced to Google Drive) for years. It's nice that you know you have control of your passwords at all times, and as long as you can access your cloud storage account and can download a KeePass app, you can get your passwords. It works reasonably well most of the time, but I was consistently running into edge cases that weren't as smooth as I'd have liked (mostly apps on Android)

I switched to vaultwarden (option 3), and immediately fell in love with things mostly just working. However, since I was hosting it out of my house, I had a bit of a disaster recovery problem. If i had say a fire, I could easily lose all copies of my vault, which would be... suboptimal.

After reviewing the options, I switched to straight bitwarden. I've been happy with the experience, and once I have disposable income, I plan to get pro long enough to have emergency contacts available so my family can still get important passwords in case of the worst.

All options have their pros and cons, but IMO password storage is something that deserves to be given proper consideration.

Didn't see anything in the article about steamer revenue. Did that get figured out?

This is satire, right?

...

Right?

I'm using this portable monitor but it is kind of finicky, and I worry it'll break easily. It's the biggest one I could find at a reasonable price, and happens to fit my backpack.

I've used it with my 3440x1440 freesync monitor at home, and it works as well, but like anything, whether you can game at that resolution is very dependant on the specific game and settings you use.

I'll add, because the deck doesn't have thunderbolt, plan on using HDMI instead of type c. It's possible you can find a type c (non-thunderbolt) dock that supports powering and driving a monitor over type c along with the deck, but I wasn't able to find one.

I've got an external monitor and my full keyboard and mouse with a dock and my steam deck. I can set up anywhere with a desk and game, program, whatever. I've found very little that it can't handle.

The album leaves it ambiguous, but it's likely trauma from watching his father kill his mom's lover when he returned from military service.

Dear God...

Dear God no

Go gentoo and get both!

What do you mean by opposite position?

That there's an overlap between people who think "climate change is manmade and requires systematic change to overcome" and also "terraforming Mars is a laudable long term goal, but can't be done at the expense of the earth"?

Yeah, there's a lot of overlap there, it's not particularly hypocritical.

More the other way around, I know a surprising amount of climate change deniers that think we need to colonize Mars to save the human race.

I'm not trying to say it can't or it shouldn't be done, but it has to be both. We have to find a way to live sustainably and also expand.

There seems to be a large amount of overlap between people who say things like "It's hubris to think that humans can change the atmosphere of the earth enough to make a noticeable difference in 400 years" and "we can make Mars inhabitable by humans in 50 years"

More antimeme than anything

Not with that attitude

Are you confusing "ports" with "interfaces"? I can see that happening since we do colloquially refer to both as ports depending on context.

Each service will bind to it's own "port" which is tied up by that service. However each interface (the external physical connection) supports like 65,000 software ports.

So in practice, no, you don't usually need more than one physical network connection to run multiple services.

How much does God hate Richard Dawkins?

I don't remember Valheim specifically, but most standalone servers don't require you to own the game in the account you use to host it

TIL: Feudalism is Capitalism, mercantilism, is capitalism, the Roman Empire had capitalism, and many Agrarian societies were capitalism.

Nothing about that scenario is unique to capitalism

Title is weird

He bought the customer base

Yeah, the DUNEg reveal got a bit of a chuckle out of me, and the rest was... Fine. At least it didn't actively undermine existing stories like the Kiff episode.

That's what happens to all the rice I cook too, but it takes a few hours.

Not just a "poor person tax" but it means that the law just doesn't apply in any meaningful way to the wealthy

Modern Christians wouldn't recognize him and would crucify him again

But is it federated?

WASP - White Anglo-Saxon Protestant. Think nuclear family, house in the suburbs, white picket fence, etc. You can imagine incel culture as an expression of WASP culture in decay.

That's pretty clever

Man, I can get a cleaner homepage at the cost of not showing me my history? Seems worth it to me.

Often enough "saying no" falls under things they couldn't do

Be the kind of frood who knows where their towel is

Eew. I'll stick with long pig thank you very much.

Honestly I've seen at least 10 times as much content from people mad about the people mad about sync as I have from people mad about sync.

To be clear, I'm not trying to make the argument that it can only produce exactly what it's seen, I recognize that this argument is frankly overstated in media. (The interviews with Adam Conover are great examples; he's not wrong per se, but he does oversimplify things to the point that I think a lot of people misunderstand what's being discussed)

The ability to recombine what it's seen in different ways as an emergent property is interesting and provocative, but isn't really what OP is asking about.

A better example of how LLMs can be useful in research like what OP described would be asking it to coalesce information from multiple existing studies about what properties correlate with superconducting in order to help accelerate research in collaboration with actual material scientists. This is all research that could be done without LLMs, or even without ML, but having a general way to parse and filter these kinds of documents is still incredibly powerful, and will be a sort of force multiplication for these researchers going forward.

My favorite example of the limitation on LLM's is to ask it to coin a new word, then google that word. It physically is unable to produce a combination of letters that it doesn't have indexed, and it doesn't have an index for words it hasn't seen. It might be able to create a new meaning for a word that it's seen, but that isn't necessarily the same.

It's important to be clear what kind of actual system you're using when you say "AI".

If you're talking about something like ChatGPT, you're using an LLM, or "Large Language Model". Its goal is to produce something that reasonably looks like a human wrote it. It has reviewed a ridiculous amount of human text, and has a metric assload of weights associating the relationships between these words.

If the LLM sees your question and associates a particular compound with superconductors, it's because it's seen these things related in other writings (directly or indirectly) or at least sees the relationship as plausible.

It's important not to ascribe more intent behind what your seeing than exists. It can't understand what a superconductor is or how materials can achieve the state, it's just really good at relaying related words in a convincing manner

That's not to say it isn't cool or useful, or that ML(Machine Learning) can't be used to help find answers to these kinds of questions.

As a long time user of docker on the server space, I was real intrigued when I got my steam deck and learned that flatpaks were a thing.

Now I'm running microos on my desktop, and really happy with being able to mess around with applications to my heart's content and being able to confidently remove them without messing anything up on the base system

I'm sure it's also doable via your own vps, but I think most people are talking about managed systems like cloudflare tunnels https://www.makeuseof.com/use-cloudflare-tunnel-expose-local-servers-internet/
