Idk worrying about a lab leak type pathogen scenario through an ebay sale seems far fetched to me. I picked one that looked lightly used and clean and wiped it down with disinfectant when I got it. The chance of a pathogen surviving that long doesn’t sound like a realistic concern. Most things it plausibly would have been exposed to, save for like highly radioactive dust getting lodged in its crevices, is easily handled with basic sanitation and hand washing. And it’s not like I’m putting food on the surface anyways.

Also second hand lab equipment. I was tired of my kitchen scale breaking and having annoying features like auto off after like 60 seconds. Got an ohaus lab scale off eBay for like $50, handles 18lbs, has a configuration menu with tons of options and features like count mode, sequential weight summing, and lets you set auto off for up to 30 minutes or completely disable auto off. Takes regular AAs or plugs into an outlet. I love it and it’s built like a tank.

If it still boots from the internal disk then you may just need to set the boot priority to prefer your external drive. That’ll be mobo specific unfortunately so I can’t give any tips. I’ve had systems set up to boot from external media when plugged in so it should work.

Back in the day there was also an issue with running full windows installs from USB drives where you needed to prevent it from reinitializing USB devices during bootup since that would interfere with itself, but I’m not seeing anything recent about that so hopefully that’s not an issue anymore.

I don’t think you need to involve Linux at all if you boot the official windows installer. I would just install the SSD as the only drive internally and install to it, then put it back in its enclosure.

Supposedly comaps has carplay support as of like 2 months ago, according to a page on their website

I use slskd connected to a VPN and it works great. I just run a gluetun container and then attach the slskd container to it with network mode service, same as you would connect transmission to gluetun.

It’ll be hit or miss. If it’s ripped from the same source then it should be fine, but different editions, TV edits, scenes that are cut in some versions or additional title cards at the beginning will mess it up so you’d need to QC it.

When it takes a while for the do not unplug, it’s usually because it’s just still writing data. The loading bar you see is actually writing to a cache. If you run sync after copying the data, you’ll probably find that it finishes at the same time that it says it’s safe to unplug. The easy solution is to just get faster / nicer USB drives - check reviews for benchmarks if you can find them.

Wait when did they find the weapon?? Last I heard they didn’t have the weapon and the 2 people they arrested were the wrong guy. So it sounds like the shooter didn’t leave the gun behind, so I would expect them to only get the weapon if they got the shooter unless I missed something between yesterday and today.

Edit: Found the update that I missed from the FBI this morning, they apparently found the weapon in a “wooded area”, so shooter still unknown

Yeah just like that one in the shredder frame that shredded it as soon as it was sold - the removal could be seen as an unwitting part of the performance art.

Some music players do this, I think jellyfin uses replaygain. I remember seeing a setting to normalize across all tracks or normalize per album (to preserve some tracks being louder than other tracks of an album while still lowering as a whole entire albums that are louder than others)

The official proprietary Nvidia drivers are just a regular Linux package I’m 99% sure, I have it installed on my laptop and it doesn’t involve a gui app at all.

Yeah I ordered some PCBs from jlcpcb for some diy body trackers, the PCBs were $67 and the tariffs were $37, for a total of $104 before shipping

Literally my parents right now re: tariffs. “Yeah the situation in Gaza sucks but look at all the money they’re raking in from tariffs”…

So fucking what none of that is helping us

Wtf is up with the kids’ faces

I’d say download everything and keep track of what you can’t find, then rip those because there will probably be people in the data hoarder or lost media communities who would love to hoard and share it.

I think you’ve exactly described why some people need a VPN. My ISP does 3 strikes when they get complaints :/
