Cute, but MP was way smarter than that, so kinda falls flat.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•What is the point of abbreviations for short words when they do not reduce times significantly when you type?English
2·4 hours agoSmartphones have been a thing since at least 2006 (actually earlier), and commonplace since at least 2010.
I haven’t seen a T9 phone since then.

1·4 hours agoMaybe before about 2008 when smartphones became ubiquitous.
To see it today is annoying, especially since auto correct wants to make it “you”.
Good points, the difference being NAT crossing requires something on the inside to enable it, while IP6 security requires the consumer router to be properly configured.
And I disagree with the assumption that badly configured routers won’t exist if IP6 were the default. Bad design doesn’t magically go away.
The bottom line is small LANs don’t benefit from IP6 today. Large LANS don’t benefit because they already have extensive IP4 configuration in place, and attempting to migrate is costly, risky, and without a clear benefit to offset those costs and risks.
Most likely enterprises may use 6 on new networks, but even that is questionable when so many extant products still rely on 4 - you don’t want to create a problem for those systems.
mDNS (.local) is a fairly new thing, and not everything supports it well unfortunately.
Meh, it doesn’t really offer anything for a home network.
And this is why it really hasn’t be adopted even by business - there’s already a network in place that works. Migrating to 6 doesn’t offer any meaningful benefit to balance the effort and risk of the change.
Now if you’re an SMB with 3 servers and a handful of computers, would you spend what little IT money you have making this change?
And if you’re an enterprise with a thousand servers and tens of thousands of users, are you making this change?
Imagine the cost of reconfiguring routers, and the outages you’d experience doing this.
There’s just no pressing urgency to change, and LOTS of cost and risk to do so.

Parenting@lemmy.world•Little secret you weren't taught: Parenting as a concept basically didn't exist before the 1970s. The overwhelming job that we call "parenting" used to be a community effort.English

Bullshit, and there are people alive today that can call bullshit on your claim, I know a few.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Are defense attorneys ‘good people’?English

Guess you won’t have a defense attorney if you’re ever wrongly accused then?

11·4 days agoUsing SSD is going to cost a lot more for the same storage and not really gain anything.
I use SSD for the drives that host VMs since they’re quieter when “running” and have a lower power consumption than my spinning disk drives when running.
This allows my storage drives to spin down.

3·4 days agoI routinely reduce size 50%-70% and play it on a 65" 4k TV and you can’t tell the difference.
Sometimes I can actually improve the original video by applying noise reduction.
As for power - it really depends on your hardware and what you’re trying to do. Since I use an Intel SFF desktop, I have the option of using QSV for conversion and my rig peaks at 80 watts. Not that my peak matters because QSV is very power efficient and fast - takes perhaps 20 min to convert a 6GB video to 1-2 GB.
At least with places like Denver and other western cities it’s pretty straightforward how it happened - everything built along the river. Access to the river was key.
Being a boom/bust city means that a much later boom they adjusted.
Then even older cities (think Boston) grew before any opportunity at planning could happen.
