My bad for exaggerating. Yes, you can permanently disable bluetooth on iphone, but iphone users are less likely to do so compared to android users. This is by design because apple needs the majority of users to have their bluetooth turned on for their find my network. This made bluetooth-based security issue more impactful in apple ecosystem than in android.

Now that Google is planning to do the same in android, I'm worried that it'll be even worse than in apple ecosystem simply because most android phones have much shorter support period. This means future bluetooth vulnerabilities might remain unpatched in some phones and those phones will be more likely to have bluetooth turned on.

Yes, I didn't address the point made, just want to mention that people are increasingly avoiding hardware raid these days.

What if the answer is there but google refused to include it in your search results until you saw enough ads?

And what about the RAID controller itself? Does it not add complexity and another point of failure to the whole system?

This is why people prefers software raid these days instead of hardware raid.

Unlike hdd, I never experienced graceful disk failures on ssd. Instead, they just randomly decided to die at the most inconvenient time. Raid 1 saved my hide a couple times now from those ssd failures.

No one bully me at school because my mom was a teacher in my elementary school, my dad was a teacher in my middle school, and my aunt was a teacher in my high school. I was literally bullet proof. The teachers gave me a hard time if I was slacking though and reported it to my parents. Couldn't even roll up my sleeves without my parents found out.

Wtf?! The boycott (sort of) works this time?!

I suspect most of kagi's subscription money actually went to google's pocket. Google charges a lot of money to access their search api, about $5/1000 queries.

Iirc biplanes were still used in ww2. Some of the newer ones also have wooden elements, such as the famous "wooden wonder" mosquito.

This is why you should build a package when compiling from source instead of doing make install directly. Packages can easily unistalled or upgraded.

I usually use a version manager to install those stuff so I can install multiple versions when I need it. asdf is my first choice because it support a lot of languages via its plugin system, and the list of plugins is huge.

Steam is still not updated to run natively on Apple Silicon-based Mac computers, nearly four years after Apple's transition away from Intel CPUs started. It's now a slow and clunky barrier to playing the games I own on my Mac computers—a far cry from the pro-consumer persona that Valve and Steam usually enjoy.

Kinda similar situation in linux where steam hasn't been updated to use wayland. It's flickery mess on nvidia hardware and a bit glitchy on intel and amd (like other electron/cef apps running under xwayland). Proton works great though.

What kind of drama did I miss?

I wouldn't recommend virtualbox on linux these days. It's slower than kvm, and oracle is known to send hefty bills to companies when their employees install virtualbox's proprietary extension pack on their machine.

Assuming you're on desktop, just grab a cheap amd gpu and do the gpu passthrough setup with kvm and virt-manager. No need to get an expensive gpu if you don't plan to play games on the vm. The cheapest, bargain-bin second hand gpu will do, as long as it's not too old.

This proves that ps portal is actually could be a capable handheld. Shame, it probably got enough processing power to run vita games. It has an adreno 610 gpu, which is much more powerful than vita's gpu.

I mean, just look at what happened over in ios land. Every time there is a new security issue or denial of service attack on their bluetooth stack, apple has to scramble to fix it because bluetooth is always on in their devices. Android at least has some respite by turning off bluetooth, especially on old devices that no longer receiving security updates.

Magic link login with extra steps

In that case, perhaps replacing -o sftp_server="/usr/bin/sudo /usr/lib/openssh/sftp-server" with -o sftp_server="/usr/bin/sudo -u <syncthing_user> /usr/lib/openssh/sftp-server" is a good compromise?
