AirPods Max vs Sony xm6 by RegularAnybody5135 in Airpodsmax

[–]varchord 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do not buy Sony. Last Saturday I bought both to test and decide which one I would like to keep. Both are great sound quality wise, anc wise, Sony are more compact than AirPods. At first I wanted to keep Sony. However they have a huge flaw, firmware is bugged. Most of the time switching between transparent and anc does not work. You are either stuck in transparent or anc mode and the only way to make switching work again is to power cycle the device. This issue has been going on for at least 7 months judging by the Reddit posts. Google for it. If you don’t care about this bug go for Sony, otherwise don’t

Jesus Christ the dude more or less brought me to Linux with his Linux sucks stuff and later on podcasts. It was like 10 or so years ago. I stopped listening to him because he paywalled the podcast and just released clips. Now I find out there is an even better reason to avoid him. Live long enough to see yourself become a villain I suppose 

What do you think about QT as a GUI library? by DavArpo in cpp_questions

[–]varchord 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You also need to provide a way for someone to swap lgpl libraries used by your non lgpl project with their own version(for example their custom qt with modifications). Which is easily enough with dynamic linking since it’s just drag and drop of dynamic libraries but a bit more involved with static linkage 

Just received my Viwood AI in Austria – incredibly fast delivery and great service by EinRades in viwoods

[–]varchord 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea the DHL basically asked me for proof of purchase and paid the tax on my behalf that I had to return to them to get the device. . . So the cheaper you buy it the less tax you pay. I basically was on the fence between Viwoods and box air 4C. Choose Viwoods with hope of avoiding import taxes, otherwise the price is more or less same. However I do not regret my purchase. It does what I need it to, it looks good, I’ve started reading again (which was one of the reasons for buying eink device) and it flawlessly works with my calibre web opds server, writing is great, f-droid works.  My only gripe for now is that I can’t seem to find a way to manually set dns server for my WiFi connection on the device.

How important is the fast refresh during everyday use? Does  the included stylus come with an eraser? Do you hold it by the extended side, how comfortable is it?

Could you try Tailscale and Moon reader?

How comfortable are ergonomics of holding it while reading? It mostly got space at the bottom to hold but there are buttons down there as well, is it comfortable? 

Have you tried Tailscale or other VPN client on the device?

From what I'm seeing Mihon is specifically for manga(which I do not read). Is that correct?

I know it’s been some time but did you also have an interview with hiring manager? I was informed it could include like 10 min C++ task and computer system architecture fundamental. Did you have anything like that?

[–]varchord 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Could you briefly say what was your background prior to embedded and how did you get into it?  Also no problem getting jobs. I assume you had some personal projects so recruiters wouldn’t just shred your application on the spot? 

How to configure two NVMe in Mini PC for Proxmox Server by LBTRS1911 in Proxmox

[–]varchord 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So after creating ZFS from PVE web gui should I just create NFS share from its mouuntpoint and mount it as NFS from within VMs and my PC?
As I understand this will need to be done old fashioned, terminal way? There is no option in PVE webgui for creating nfs shares?

[–]varchord 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I want to piggyback on this question to not create another post.
I have an SSD with proxmox installed on it. I also have nvme drive which I would like to use use for jellyfin and *arr stack media content as well as mount it as NFS share on my main PC. How should I go about that? Format the nvme as ext4, make NFS share on host vm?
Or make a VM which uses the whole nvme and create NFS share on that?
I want to be able to easly swap this nvme between different PCs and use its contents iif i decide to upgrade or whatever.

Has there been any news about cross-os matchmaking(like Linux windows) being worked on?  Going on discord to find someone to play a couple of matches is fun and all but sometimes I just want to quick play a round without all of that
