Buddhism as it originally was, was more of a philosophy and way of life.
However, as will all organized religion, Buddhism has morphed in Tibet (free Tibet), India, and other places into mysticism with gods, recurring semi-saviors through “reincarnation”, and classist systems and hierarchies. Sad, really. Humans mess everything up for personal gain and control.
I really miss Microsoft AD configuration GUI.
Wait, no, that sort of group you have to make through Entra, formerly Azure admin center, wait no they actually wanted a SharePoint site for the group, wait no you can’t do that through entra even though you can see the groups, you have to do that through O365 admin center, wait no you can only make a SharePoint aaand teams group there, you have to click more -> SharePoint admin center and then create a new group there, but not the default, you have to click “show more group types”, but where can you modify the members of this group? Oh you can just go back to O365 admin center to do that. Now you want to make some small access changes to the force-created email for the group? Oh well you have to go to Exchange admin center for that. Wait, not Outlook admin center? No they are named different things just to make it easy.
Now someone who made an event involving the group is on holiday so I have to remove it, I can do that from exchange admin center right? Well actually the easiest way to do that is to log into Exchange from a power shell terminal through the GUI pop-up and terminal commands. But wait, the search for the event actually doesn’t work there ever, even with the exact name? I guess I will give myself rights to the calendar, reboot Outlook, go to the calendar, remove the event, go back to the terminal, remove my rights to the calendar, restart outlook.
Actually, I don’t miss Microsoft sysadmin tools.
It’s funny because rich people notoriously do NOT pay the wages of police because they tax dodge so hard that it often crosses the line of illegal, even with all of the extremely pro-mega-rich laws and exemptions that america has.
I listened to a ton when I bike to and from work. 40 minutes gets like 2 episodes a day, plus when I am at work
If you are in the EU,
These things are pretty awesome. They have the switch which allows you to change the DB drop depending on what you are using them for (or how loud the specifically concert is)
My girlfriend has some noise sensitivity and they help her a lot just to put them on the lowest dB drop setting or the middle in a busy environment.
I wish that we could get KNX ETS6 in WINE. But it has a USB component though many or most people use IP configuration instead.
Hence why I said it

I think this is what they are referring to.
I saw a Lemmy thread about it, but the main takeaway is that it was a completely different program than what we know and love. It just happened to be named the same IIRC.
I don’t really get the idea of decentralized internet.
The internet is already decentralized. There are millions of websites hosted on thousands of separately-owned machines.
“Decentralized” services like the fediverse use thus exact same structure and bind them together by a search/aggregation API.
The “centralized” part of the internet is DNS/IP Assignments, Service providers, and search.
You are perfectly allowed to go your whole life without using search, or by self-hosting searX.
If we go back to the age of webrings, that is essentially decentralized internet. It seems like every decentralized internet idea is just a rehash of this with some Tor ideas sprinkled in.
You are never going to be able to pull a “Silicon Valley” and make every device into a mini server. The ping and uptime would be horrific.

Sorry, I think options like Firefly III for that might not be sufficient for small business, but it was the only great Foss personal finance software for a long time.
Odoo is the gold standard for business. I think they also have a business finance app? It isn’t free, but the cost is reasonable.
Otherwise, I use Leantime for project management. If you work in a project-based or contract-based company (like consultancy or design house), then it has a lot of project & product features including time tracking with a plugin. Not financial though.
Oh boy! Here goes

If I donated $5 per month to each of these projects I would be broke 😂
Lol league was extremely toxic in 2010 when streaming wasn’t a thing. I got sucked in and became toxic in 2011-2012 before I quit altogether. Best decision I ever made regarding video games.
It is the player base, not the streamers, that ruin the game.
But maybe this will help a little bit.
Here in Belgium we have cryptographically signed tokens on our legally mandated IDs.
You can use that token to do all sorts of things (my company uses them as authorship signatures for our quality system for medical devices), but if we had some standard like that, then we could have some software that would have a OTP based on that that is a huge list of valid OTPs in a website API or so, not linked to the token itself. (So you would have to trust this software that generates the OTP). You will get people using the same OTP, but that wouldn’t matter because it would just be a validity check. Lind of like the old product key generators for games.
Sure this could be abused or gotten around by a programmer or hack, but for 95% of the population it would be effective age verification without giving away any information or statistics. Sure, people could also abuse it and save a code and use it constantly, but then they would already have been verified. Sharing a code around would also happen with teens, but it would be far more effective than not, especially for the low stakes of age verification.
Hibernation doesn’t work at all on my windows HP work laptop. Sleep has gotten way way better on Linux in the past 2 years even. My desktop that would be buggy going in and out of sleep has now been flawless such that I auto sleep it after 30 minutes.
Battery life on Linux still sucks though.
Those trackpads better have damn good palm reject because getting to those thumbsticks without brushing the trackpads will be impossible for many people.
Also in UT1999 right? It sits in my memory, but all my friends only played ut1999 until like 2012 lol.
Better compared to the MK4S price since you get the enclosure with it.
That being said, definitely high compared to bambu, but that is also because bambu takes advantage of much lower labor, operating, and land costs in china. It is quite normal for EU-designed and certainly EU manufactured products to be more expensive.
Interesting, when I started using FreeCAD I had 0 training, and I have managed to make it work just fine. Was mostly frustrated by the topological naming problem, but that is fixed now.
You can do quite complex things with it.
You just have to put in a bit of effort and think in an additive sketch-extrude workflow. But yeah, not easy to transition from solidworks.
A Volkswagen id4 was the best choice I had from work (Belgian companies give company cars for personal use as perks because of tax benefits).
I completely disagreed to all terms involving internet access in the vehicle, but I have no doubt they are tracking me without my consent too…
