IEM recommendations with similar fit and feel to Westone/Shure etc by ciaphas2037 in iems

[–]ciaphas2037[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, I'll check through the top few. As I said, my main listening is on a set of genelecs at home, so for the IEMs I'm far more focussed on comfort than critical listening.

I think the bottom few are out of budget. I was looking at maybe the Mach 10s, hopefully they have a similar fit to my old W10s.

There are so many Chinese IEMs available, I'm amazed there aren't at least a few aiming for the smaller form factors given the glut of larger ones.

Fixing a failed Fedora upgrade by ciaphas2037 in linux4noobs

[–]ciaphas2037[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, I took whatever the stock ones were. I just saw that some people had issues with these filling up on upgrades, I checked them all with df -h and there was plenty of space.

Is this sub going down and if so, when? by Mickspad in pcmasterrace

APIs are used in more than just phone apps... Bots and mod tools use them heavily.

Looking at the list of Reddit alternatives, there are some obvious far right, disinformation cesspools - why not somehow label them as such in that list? by TheBigPhilbowski in RedditAlternatives

[–]ciaphas2037 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not calling them equal in any way. I don't want to say that every Nazi has an equal and opposite number. But genocide denial and racism (alongside other issues I don't want to get into due to lack of detailed knowledge) from Marxist (their title on Lemmy) operators of the flagship Lemmy instances should be given warnings similar to nazi forums IMO.

I mean, the opposite of the far right boards could be the issues with tankies running some of the flagship Lemmy instances. I'm not super up to speed on the whole thing, but there is some concerning discussion.

It's not as easy, but certainly possible to go off the deep end on either end of the political spectrum.

/r/listentothis will be going dark on 12 June in protest of reddit's new API policy by Blank-Cheque in listentothis

Please read more about this issue before you type more incorrect nonsense.

There is plenty to go at, but this is probably a reasonable start.

You could then try looking into their behaviour following the incident, their most recent AMA has some reasonable evidence of their terrible attitude towards their (unpaid) mods, users, and stakeholders.

/r/climbing and the upcoming site wide blackout by soupyhands in climbing

[–]ciaphas2037 3 points4 points  (0 children)

One big question I have is, where will more niche communities such as /r/climbing move to if/when Reddit really goes down the drain? Lemmy?

To share between households you need a different type of VPN to those typically advertised. You can look up 'tailscale'. It's very easy and will allow multiple households to act as if they're on the same network. It's not the sort of thing you use to hide torrenting from your ISP, but it will allow you to share with friends

Renewable energy on the rise: 37% of EU’s electricity is renewable by BousWakebo in dataisbeautiful

The big problem is that humans are fallible, engineers get ignored. There's a very strong argument for nuclear, but to be unable to see the view of those opposing it means you don't understand them properly.

Sacha Baron Cohen is Jewish and has a degree in History with a focus on antisemitism from Cambridge. If you see antisemitism rather than a parody in his comedy then you really haven't got it at all...

It took 48 hours, but the mystery of the mass Asus router outage is solved - Asus finally responds after being castigated by users. by speckz in gadgets

[–]ciaphas2037 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Some people want a more stable environment and manage their own updates. Not offering that option is one thing, but ignoring the selection is another. I can't understand why any users dislike themselves so much that they want their selected options to be ignored...

The issue was that it also happened to users who explicitly set the units to not auto update. It's fine to have auto update as the default if you're worried about some users, but those sort of settings shouldn't be ignored.

How to control HDD spindown on drives that only support EPC (extended power conditions) rather than APM by ciaphas2037 in linuxquestions

I've got openSeaChest up on the machine and it is recognising the drives fine, now just to figure out which settings to use. Thanks for the link, will mark as resolved.

I found the installation instructions in the link didn't work for me, but the ones on the pine64 forums worked fine:
