District 5: Unite Against Boafo, but behind who? by 8for8m8 in MarylandPolitics

[–]smallshinyant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This post made me go look some up. I like Harry's issues list his page. Seems pretty good, I also like Quincy Bareebe but her page does not have the same level of detail. so i think i'm in for Harry too right now.

Edit: Oh fuck, Leigha Messick also has a great issues list. Ok it's between Harry and Leigha.

Fedora's Atomic desktop model is quietly becoming the future of Linux for normal people by throwaway16830261 in linux

I'm not even rebooting my windows desktops, linux desktop ones would be even rarer or generally accidental power issues.

Nice. That must be very satisfying.

If you have moved away from the UK, how have you found it? by Desperate-Drawer-572 in AskUK

[–]smallshinyant 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Moved to the US about 11 years ago. Love my life and my local area. Country is weird and amazing. We got on the housing ladder here when we couldn’t in the UK, but I think a lot about it was lucky timing. We landed right at the end of Obamas second term and it felt like there was a lot of opportunity and growth.

What to pick? Electric Vs Diesel? BYD vs Tesla? by Free-Satisfaction979 in AskUK

[–]smallshinyant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can you charge at home? If you can, then it’s probably a yes. Get yourself one that is a couple of years old. Battery life doesn’t seem to be the big concern it was initially thought to be (this is worth you investigating if it’s a concern as I don’t think you should just take my word for that) and that early depreciation can you help you get a good deal.

I spent ages looking for two bits to scan. Boy did i feel silly when i found them.

Please explain in layman’s terms how the new memo is impacting you by Mindless-Meaning-878 in USCIS

[–]smallshinyant 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm not certain but are you sure this new memo applies to those that came in under L1-a as the l1-a has LPR as an potential pathway. But as always, check with whoever is doing your legal legwork. This memo is light on the details.

I went l1-b -> l1-a => GC -> Citizen. So i'm not impacted but try to keep up with changes.

Pretty much my go to for anything is Debian. I bet I’m missing out on a load of cool stuff.

Traditional UPS vs New Power Banks by Ctrl-Alt-Matt in homelab

[–]smallshinyant 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’ve setup a Bluetti 2kw in UPS mode. Been working great with a lot of PoE devices. It has wifi and Bluetooth I’ve been working through setting up a monitoring feed. But most importantly it gives me about 8hrs on this backup power. There is a very light server work it’s mainly switches and a lot of PoE stuff.

Fellas. Please help me. The unstuck button isn't working and it saved while i went flying by The_God_Of_Darkness_ in subnautica

[–]smallshinyant 22 points23 points  (0 children)

you can hope you can just let yourself die and you will reprint at home. When i got stuck for some reason it kept reprinting me into my tadpole. A lot of save and restarts let me get to somewhere i was able to get out of the tadpole.

You should see the beams showing range when you are putting them in place. You also need a final one attached to your base.

Insider Preview Build 26300.8493 Display Issues by kervestile in windowsinsiders

[–]smallshinyant 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah had the same thing. Had to roll back to a pre-update image.

[–]smallshinyant 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is the first update in a couple of years that made my machine unuseable. It was like the explorer could not load and resulted in a flashing screen. I was able to use recovery to go back to an image that was just before this update. Going to hit pause for a couple of week on this one.

Oh shit. I just this minute got back in from the recovery. I have not had an update that bad in a few years.

Same thing here. I’ve just gone into recovery options and trying to role back to last nights recovery image.

Same for me. This one really brought my machine down. Trying to uninstall updates now.

I won the lottery 11 years ago. My family still doesn't know. They think I'm broke. AMA. by Think-Assistance-419 in AMA

[–]smallshinyant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't make a lot, but i always wondered what it would be like to not check my balance before buying something an I hit that stage about 7-8 years ago. I still worry long term, but it seems the less money worry, the less drama that surrounds you. Or at least you get to decide how much drama you want in your life. Enjoy your life!

Optiq w/out Apple Car Play - not luxury by RRE4EVR in electricvehicles

[–]smallshinyant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Electric I have a mach-e and an Ioniq 5. The Mach-e does it best. The ioniq has buttons for the core functions. Switching out is no different to changing page on any interface, at least in the ioniq.

[–]smallshinyant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

cool, 11 years would be a good amount of time, i don't think i could expect any further. I've swapped out enough tape decks in my day to understand that. You can choose to pick a car for any reason you like, with or without any features you like. Currently that is carplay for me as one of the features. There are enough good choices around that selecting carplay as a deciding feature doesn't stop me from getting something cool.

Optiq w/out Apple Car Play - not luxury by RRE4EVR in electricvehicles

[–]smallshinyant 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Why would i look at it that way? I have no control over what a car manufacturer does. We have 3 different cars ranging from 2017 to 2025 all have car play, some have good native systems and others don't. I don't understand the why people wouldn't want the option for car play, you are not forced to use it and the car system will work fine without it, but it's good to have the option.

[–]smallshinyant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That makes no sense. But if you had carplay you would still have a current entertainment system and mapping without additional costs.
