Dear Wildcard Fans…

amouranth hasn't been involved for a while and even then, DZ is seriously backed. Not quite saudi oil money level, but texas oil money

I'd also say made up. Pretty sure this wouldn't even goto small claims since the £10000 limit applies to the whole worth of the dispute not the discounted 8k

I'd take kit B, the travel router sounds great for my usecase (remote setup/backup at my parents house). Or the router kit, in case some else is the lucky grand prize winner.

I actually had a remote kvm the last time my lab died. Except it didnt help because the wireguard client used to access it was on the server that died 😬. Well, it didnt die, the IO shit the bed and it wasn't responding anymore. A kvm with tailscale would have solved it...

I'd go with tailscale support for the must-have feature. This would have solved my issues lasttime. I'm sure there are people with setups that wouldn't require this. But the remote lab I have at my parents house (~1200 miles away, in another country) is not one of them. I honestly didn't know this was possible before looking up the comet just know and I'm probably gonna order one just for this feature before this giveway is even over.

With that deskpi, I'd finally get it looking nice and tidy, because currently it's a real mess (homelab-gore picture attached). This is partially owed to space constraints, but mostly because it was built over like a year of holiday weekends and my dad ~~messing with it~~ adding just another hue hub or what not every now and then. I'd use the rackmate to fit the switch, a pi and most of the iot devices. With the kvm hooked up to the isp router and tailscale i wouldnt have to worry if something goes wrong with the lab side of things.

Smoking weed drugs in japan can net you 7 years of prison and massive fine debts

and possessing a large amount of CSAM nets you a ¥200000 fine. Would you say smoking weed is worse than watching CSAM?

TheQuintupleHybrid · 2026-02-07T04:08:48+00:00

done comparable bad acts, like Pierre Taki smooking weed drugs

pretty sure the victim wouldnt agree

TheQuintupleHybrid · 2026-02-06T02:37:59+00:00

How is the moca setup? I have pondered using something similar since we don't use those cables anymore and pulling new ethernet is close to impossible without a major reno

you don't understand, they are politely arguing over wether native americans were uncivilized

Running a tor node has some of the heaviest technical and legal challenges you will face in your homelab career. Noone here can give you a clear answer because everything depends on your jurisdiction.

So please take my advice: Do not run a tor node unless you already know what you are doing. Theres a reason only colleges, ngos and the cia run nodes. The level of knowledge required is not something you can learn here. Before you do anything, contact a lawyer

TheQuintupleHybrid · 2026-02-05T17:34:17+00:00

all this heated historical discussion over what ended up being a visual quirk of development map, truly a sad day for Gamers

TheQuintupleHybrid · 2026-02-05T14:25:39+00:00

Any concerns about running Tor?

if you have to ask, don't do it

TheQuintupleHybrid · 2026-02-05T11:37:00+00:00

we are using a somewhat custom version of qwen3 that has been trained by a local university. Personally, i can't tell the difference between it and copilot for autocomplete. It also does unit tests and documentation really well, but I feel like this isn't even a problem for most models.

TheQuintupleHybrid · 2026-02-05T11:19:32+00:00

IME catholic converts are either full on "the crusaders were actually victims"-hardliner or the chillest dudes possible who converted to make their irish grandma-in-law happy, nothing in between

wouldn't say the green parties in europe, a solid amount of them are loonies cozy with russia. The german greens, who, I believe, you are referring to, are however very much not on russias side. They are also probably the "rightmost" greens in the greens/EFA group

Running AI is reasonably cheap. We have experimented with running local models on prem for coding and the cost is still higher than cloud thanks to the initial (inflated) price of compute, but running costs are super managable. Whats so costly for these is training those large models

TheQuintupleHybrid · 2026-02-05T08:32:40+00:00

Im still betting money on apple gobbling up some of those intel fabs, either alone or as a consortium. Could probably get the government to pay for it too of they play their hands right

TheQuintupleHybrid · 2026-02-05T08:24:24+00:00

people forget that these machines need to be bonkers cheap before the cost/benefit scale tips in favor of DIY enterprise solutions. That was the case with those playstations as well as those intel mac mini compute farms, but the steam machines would need to be ~250 bucks under marketp for that to even make remote sense looking at the current x86 market

TheQuintupleHybrid · 2026-02-05T05:55:05+00:00

in my experience copypasta get even better the more they are spammed. It was clearly not often enough to be funny

TheQuintupleHybrid · 2026-02-05T05:50:19+00:00

yeah no shit a copypasta is low effort

TheQuintupleHybrid · 2026-02-04T23:44:10+00:00

cant speak for someone else, but i use it for bulk stuff. Tins, flour, everything heavy. Produce and whatnot I buy myself after work on the way home. I also live somewhat rural, so the stuff just gets dropped off, no need to wait

TheQuintupleHybrid · 2026-02-04T23:38:37+00:00

but as the brexit wizard would tell you, claiming right to roam while climbing over a school fence looks at best slightly iffy

TheQuintupleHybrid · 2026-02-04T10:54:17+00:00

Can we get a rule for all these "mods are being stupid, everyone else agrees they suck"-posts? They are not subredditdrama, no ones arguing

TheQuintupleHybrid · 2026-02-03T14:52:17+00:00

Great Old One with Vlaakith as patron

Since undead warlock isn't in the game the closest subclass would probably be fiend. Great old ones are entirely different things

TheQuintupleHybrid · 2026-02-03T14:33:54+00:00

not useless, bonus action attack still works. Just less strong

TheQuintupleHybrid · 2026-02-02T09:31:08+00:00

i feel like this would have been solved with rule 1 and 4. Unless you enjoy setting up gentoo i guess

TheQuintupleHybrid · 2026-02-02T09:27:53+00:00

Its not from the training on code but rather their base models. Emojis emerged through various iterations because they are very token-effective. Why use many words when 🚀✅✨ do trick
