Nah, Starlink doesn’t reset the Wi-Fi SSID for a firmware update.
They didn’t, the commenter is making things up.
Can’t you simply not connect your display to the Internet
Probably, but maybe not. I can think of three ways a Smart TV could potentially get internet access without the owners knowledge.
So while the owner could choose not to give their Smart TV a wifi connection that doesn’t mean the TV can’t get one another way.
WHO is the one guy who downvotes you???
That’s the bot that ChatGPT operates here on Lemmy.
One possibility is that Russia can read the encryption. They push, or allow, people to use Telegram because it gives false confidence that messages cannot be read which encourages people to share information they otherwise wouldn’t.
That exact strategy has been employed by the Security and Intelligence services of other nations. Here’s an example from 2021 of the FBI pushing Anom.
The YouTuber asianometry did a video on 3D dram. Very cool.
It’s catty because THEIR satellites won’t be a problem when they start launching in 18 months…it’s only Starlink satellites that will have this problem.
It’s a thinly veiled attempt at slowing down T-Mo and Starlink until Verizon and AT&T are ready to compete. That’s it.
That’s an odd statement. I had an ext4 partition mounted on a Windows 11 machine just a week ago.
I have a copy of the Alpha Centauri game about 13.6 meters from me.
Working system until you need to upgrade something.
Why are you attempting to upgrade slack? You install, configure to purpose and leave it be. When it’s purpose changes you re-install and re-configure! Nothing could be simpler!
I think I blew up my first Slack install in about 12 minutes while trying to get a video camera to work as a webcam. It took me 3 god damned days and more than a few re-installs but I did get it going…and then spent 30 minutes web chatting with a guy from Serbia. The video was the size of a postage stamp.
Well, yes. That is how it works!
As someone who started with slack in '97 these modern distros function so “automagically” that I sometimes distrust them. They’ve hidden so much of the complexity of Linux and whatever Desktop Environment is running on it that most users have very little idea what’s actually happening or how it works.
That’s been GREAT for getting more people to use Linux but it’s creating the same problem that Microsoft did with Windows. The old DOS users often knew quite a lot about their PC and how it worked because they had to but as the technical barriers went down so too did the knowledge of the users. You no longer had to juggle IRQs, Memory Maps, or DLLs because Windows just did it for you.
That’s not a bash (lol) on Linux or users of modern distros either, I myself am on Linux Mint as I type this, because it was always going to work out like this. A lot of very smart people put a lot of their time into MAKING it work out like this.
It didn’t say “non-windows” it said “served by other providers like IBM”. It could easily be Windows servers in IBM’s cloud and wouldn’t ya’ know…IBM uses Crowdstrike.
Oof, no bluetooth. Has to be cabled!
The ban lasted 2 hours and 45 minutes. Id guess it was triggered by so many people suddenly joining the account. Musk ain’t great but the hyper sensitivity around him is getting weird.
I didn’t realize that LMDE existed until I read your comment. Now that I know it does I’m going to try it as an alternative to LM 22. I gave LM22 a spin yesterday and I don’t like some of the changes, particularly around the Online Account manager. It’s not quite as fresh as LM22 but it is using a newer Kernel than 21.3 which would be nice.
<2 seconds from powered off to being able to start to open e.g. a web browser?
So that’s time on a reboot as measured from when the UEFI splash goes away to being presented with the logon screen. That feels roughly the same as Commodore’s “Ready” prompt, at least to me. Although the case can be made that the desktop should be up and loaded too. I’d have to enable “auto logon” to get that one.
Curious what your stopwatch says from powered off to a homepage loaded ready to use.
As I said to @Liz@midwest.social I’m starting to wonder just how fast I can make it with a bit of work. The hardware is nothing special but after the UEFI screen goes away GRUB comes and goes so fast it’s unreadable and then…you’re just looking at the logon screen.
Right now that PC is tied up running TestDisk and it’ll likely take another 2-3 days to finish. Once it’s done and I can reboot I’ll do some measuring and tweaking.
Reboot but a cold start isn’t exactly fair because the Commodore doesn’t have a BIOS / UEFI splash screen. Although now that you bring it up I’m slightly interested in timing it and seeing exactly how fast I can make the cold start process.
Firewire was good for high bandwidth devices like external hard drives and video cameras because it didn’t require the CPU to do any heavy lifting. These days USB is mature enough and CPUs are so fast that we (mostly) don’t notice any performance impact but in the Core 2 Duo days you could easily max out one of your two cores with a large file transfer over USB.
