OliveTin, gives you a clean web UI for pre-defined shell scripts, with a dynamically reloadable YAML configuration.

There are a ton of things you could use it for, but I use it for container and system updates. A pre-processor runs on a schedule and collects a list of all containers and systems on my network that have available updates, and generates the OliveTin YAML config with a button for each. Loading up the OliveTin webUI in a browser and clicking the corresponding button installs the update and cycles the container or reboots the host as needed. It makes it trivially easy to see which systems need updating at a glance, and to apply those updates from any machine on my network with a web browser, including my phone or tablet.

If my math is right...it will have an effect of approximately 0.0000000001 g

Angular acceleration is rw^{2, so for a normal day that would be 6371000\*(2\*pi/86400)}2/g = 0.0034345580g

On this accelerated day, it becomes 6371000(2pi/86399.9987)^2/g = 0.0034345581g

That's at the equator assuming a radius of 6371 km, which is a decent ballpark, the specific number won't change the result much.

What are you talking about?

He doesn't like Linux, he specifically said he doesn't like Linux because it "doesn't work" in his opinion, because it takes additional setup time that his Windows systems don't take. He only likes Windows, and he likes it because it "just works". However, the reason it "just works" is because someone else did all the hard work setting it up for him, he's never had to set it up himself like he was attempting to do with Linux. He hates Linux, loves Windows, and the reason he loves Windows is because he's clueless on how much setup it actually takes. He's not apathetic, he's ignorant, and a zealot.

One side wants to dehumanize and jail/deport all non-cisgender people, the other side wants them to stop, and you think both sides are the problem because they aren't focused on taxes enough?

In his mind, Windows works, Linux doesn't, and nothing and no-one can convince him otherwise. That sounds like a zealot to me, but maybe you had something else in mind.

I have, quite a few in fact. Recently I got into a discussion with someone who was complaining about how bad Linux was because installing it from scratch took an extra ~20 minutes of configuration to set up drivers, meanwhile his Windows systems "just work". What he didn't mention, though, was that his Windows systems that "just worked" were pre-build machines that came pre-installed with Windows, in other words the manufacturer already did the hard part of getting all of the drivers installed ahead of time and baked into the image. Turns out he had never actually installed Windows on a bare-metal system before and had to deal with the absolute fucking nightmare Windows driver management is, so he had no basis for comparison, of course he refused to recognize that as a possibility though.

TVs are way too inexpensive for manufacturers to pay for modems, service fees, and bandwidth fees to collect this kind of data. They'd spend more paying for that cell connection over the lifetime of the TV than you paid for the product in the first place. Solar systems and cars that cost many tens of thousands of dollars are a completely different ballpark compared to a $500-1000 TV.

Kicad should be great, but they’ve made a number of insane UX decisions that make it really unusable in practice. Horizon is actually based on the pretty good Kicad engine but it fixes most of the UX mess.

Do you have an example? I use KiCAD pretty regularly, and while they do have some odd defaults for a lot of their tools and keybindings, I rarely run into one that can't be changed/fixed in the settings.

They're saying that torrents are a form of decentralized cloud storage, not that torrents would be a viable means of decentralizing your own personal backups.
