I’ve generally had good luck with hardware and things just worked under linux. But one day I upgraded a few machines on my network to 2.5G ethernet. Several already had the ports, but my little NUC NAS box didn’t, so I installed a 2.5G usb ethernet dongle. No matter what I did, I couldn’t get it to work. It would show up and NM would act like it was up and there were no errors or anything, but it just wouldn’t actually function.

Eventually, I found out that it has a built in USB data partition that contains the drivers for windows. The card was coming up as a usb disk first when the hardware was assigned and not a network card which it should have been.

I had to write a blacklist the usb modules first, which I had done before, but I had to also write a udev rule to automatically add the network card and driver on boot. It wasn’t that difficult to actually do, but I had just never had to do anything with udev rules before. Took me a good three days of troubleshooting to finally get everything to work correctly on boot.

You can see the awful, misaligned panel gaps in those photos.

It wasn’t a suggestion at all.

I was just saying that we, the consumer are going to end up paying for it somehow or another.

Like they’re going to just take the lack of those fee profits off the bottom line. Look forward to the new and/or increased yearly fees now.

Nice find!

I’d be curious to see RTINGS do a review of the panel on it.

I thought I was 43 for probably close to a year, and even told everyone that asked I was until I had to get my own health insurance and found out I was actually 44.

Except if you care about anything having to do with picture quality, brightness, contrast ratio or features such as HDR etc, then it’s going to be a really shitty TV. They’re made for the menus at McDonald’s, not a device for modern media.

So I assume they built it in the factory to test it and then moved it to the ship? Because that’s the most building looking ship I’ve ever seen…

Of course it is

Lol, what? There is no malware in classic shell, or start11 or explorer patcher. Wtf are you talking about?

Just shut the fuck up and go away, so tired of hearing him talk.

I guess we had different experiences, these were relatively new areas where the neighborhood was developed after the map and it didn’t seem to be an issue. I suppose the satellite view probably confirmed it easily.

You can submit edits to Google Maps. I’ve done it on a handful of roads in our neighborhood and they were approved within a few weeks…

I didn’t even catch it until you mentioned it.

This is only the 3764th post this week…

Oh, duh Dall -E, haha. I’ve been deep in Stable Diffusion land for a few weeks, lol. Thanks!!

Very cool style! Model?

Sometimes you can just tell something sucks without even using it… All you need to know comes from looking at the fonts and button designs. What car is this?

Except you still pay for Prime so it doesn’t really matter if your delete the app…
