@bijan oh no, so sorry to hear. Hoping for a speedy recovery.

@aidencoder @sanjaypoyzer ahh whitespace.. the silent killer 🔪 https://t.co/DhBjS8zoNB

@BamaDude77 @Pinboard @migueldeicaza @ben_a_adams That's fine; this is one of those cases where I feel the perfect is the enemy of the good. 🤷‍♂️

(also, Maciej is almost always right about these sorts of things)

@firasd hmm. hadn't thought about that.. interesting..

@Pinboard @migueldeicaza @ben_a_adams when are extremes *ever* good? I don't understand the absolutism here Miguel. It's unlike you.

@gerikson totally the opposite for me.. I can't read analog worth a damn.

@sanjaypoyzer I say this because it's something you have to actively work against to avoid it happening, especially if you are a guy

@Beschizza yeah it's gotta be from the dell monitors. Who uses their monitor as a hub, anyways??

@ekultails @sbarnea do you have a 2.5 gb switch? they are tough to find!

@YahayaJamal10 I wish I had the time! Keep learning! 🤗

@jongalloway fun!!

@chetfaliszek eating popcorn dot gif

@wingedpig high five, fellow old-ster!

@sbarnea meh, disagree. 2.5 gigabit is an important step forward and we need that standardized before jumping all the way to 10

@bdickason oh man I'm not the best to ask for that but @kwiens is!

@bkero I *think* so, @kwiens has been very generous to me over the years.. the new one is definitely the best by far, they keep refining and improving it. Mine is also embroidered with my name on the fabric part 🥰

@Pinboard oh yes this is well known. as @patio11 says, "charge more". and ya know what? he's fuckin' right.

@mirza oh yes I adore the Phantom Canyon, loved the Hades Canyon, also the Skull Canyon.. and Ghost Canyon is just (chef's kiss).. overpriced, but *nothing* like these boxes in this form factor. They are BMWs and worth it.

@ClumsyPilot I'm going with Anker "intel certified", I hope this turns out OK: https://t.co/TFJ9OsAlAx

@YahayaJamal10 Some good places to get started at https://t.co/Sy8JMcww9a

read the comments for even more recs! 🤗

Pretty much sustained, not sure what's happening at the end, but solid https://t.co/Qr00cePXAV

I have to say.. kinda 👎. I prefer the Shin Black. https://t.co/UVShAp8ZoH

huh, so maybe 40-50 megabytes per second at .. 20 feet distance with a few walls in the way? obama-not-bad.gif https://t.co/3xnldIuzE9

@caribbeanxblue @Midar3 bang on

@m_adduci latest Orbi, which I highly recommend! I had previous gen Orbi too. Rock solid. 1 plus satellite.

@pchandrasekar That said! I was just curating this question, which needs updating for 2021 and I face the same problem: https://t.co/tkcdS2ps6J

👇 could use some upvotes as the newer, more correct answer.

@pchandrasekar It's like trying to decide which child is your favorite child! Well, OK, fine, it's actually Stack Overflow. 👶🏆

@ftrain wow let's discuss a LOT of stuff on that website

@tuck1s @tischsoic @zitterbewegung @epvh yeah but these pale in perf next to M1. It's like Qualcomm's ARM license.. and their work is thoroughly mediocre, at best

@strangetruther @NvrCast @taskboy3000 definitely my fingers! 💅

We made these cool (and quality!) promotional yo-yos a while back, and someone from the yo-yo discourse community made me this neat laser engraved yo-yo stand 🥰 https://t.co/Q7Xfve4CsS

@textfiles can't you run a custom stylesheet locally that hides the named DIVs? If you use twitter in web.

@lizardbill plausible

@zitterbewegung @epvh yeah, Apple has been remarkably cautious. They've had silicon *significantly* faster than the best Intel and AMD stuff for at least 2 generations now, and arguably 3 (A12, A13, A14). The trend was pretty clear by A9.

@bartoncasey fair, but renaming a bunch of files I wouldn't consider this crazy edgy super weird thing to need that almost never happens in practice

@textfiles who could have possibly predicted this outcome

@drewtetz and that banana taped to a wall, that was awesome, plus the guy eating it. all art!!

@drewtetz well yeah, the funny part is part of the art, too, like dada and Banksy and Koons and all that stuff

the other winner is cmd /c "ren *.doc *.doc.tmp" but that's kinda cheating, which is OK, I suppose.. all of the Unix command line is a variety of cheating in numerous clever ways

the shortest <air quote> winner </air quote> from all the replies is ls *.doc | % { ren $_ $("$_.tmp") } which means we all lose 😢

@wouterdekort @iamtraction try it yourself: does not work

@CrshOverride try it yourself and see: no

@vzeman79 mv : Cannot process argument because the value of argument "path" is not valid. Change the value of the "path" argument and run the operation again

@emilianbr that is seriously horrible, if it is the best we can do.

@gigatexal @RuurdKeizer I'd LOVE to see a chromebook with M1. That'd kinda be my dream non-development machine, tbh. Not a fan of OS X, but very much a mega-superfanboy of browser-based OS

@cperrin88 @coreyh wait I can't read this. where's the rename target?

@kevindente eh, there are short synonyms in a lot of places

@Pinboard yeah, the frog slowly boiling analogy is sadly on point. This is why I continue to say climate change won't be taken seriously until the first major world city is lost to it. I wish it wasn't so, but 😭

@chucker 👏

@mrcbergamin @mjbiren you would get a +50% for sure though, if you went to 10th or 11th gen. But AMD is winning pretty hard right now if you care about cores as well as per-thread perf!!

@mrcbergamin @mjbiren yeah Haswell ("4th gen" by the current nomenclature) was the gen where they got serious about reducing power consumption. We're still wating for the next real architecture change after Skylake ("6th gen"). And we're on 11th gen now! 🤦‍♂️

@epvh yeah they could pull the trigger and own that entire market in, like, a year. That's the scary thing for AMD and Intel.

@cumpsd 2070 super which I am now selling at a profit because crypto

@PaulMitchum as it should be!

Ghost Canyon is a beautifully designed NUC. Truly a pleasure to work on; so sleek and compact. Plus integrated 80 plus titanium PSU, so no giant power brick. https://t.co/CIntJQ1QXv

@akatasonov per https://t.co/7G24BLXjtY

@GeospatialMe me too. I consider half more or less full from the perspective of being protected. next appt is 25 days out!

@tensor_bodega I feel like this about Firefox, BUT, they have legit improved their JS perf a lot! 💪

@Carnage4Life Amazon could do better, for sure, but I can think of a mile long list of companies *way* more evil than Amazon.

@gisli 50 USA. I just made the age cutoff by 3 months .. for my county in California

While we are hard-no-ing things, here’s another hard no https://t.co/Wzov2W1e04

@JonBright I'm sure @jonskeet would be delighted to hear that 👏

@aordring I can stop any time I want!!@1

@jongalloway @jbogard @JBogardsLiver that is actually an excellent staged GIF

@aordring yeah, I know. I wish I could wave a magic wand and increase everyone's salaries.. I am big time in favor of increased minimum wage, and universal basic income.. I wish I had the power to make that happen, all I can do is support it

Trying to mix it up! A squirrel -- I swear to god this actually happened -- stole one of the Reese's peanut butter cup packages and took it up in the tree to eat it. We already move the basket inside at night so the trash pandas don't eat it! https://t.co/Jpv6KeIAkE

@ftrain ahhhh you bring so much joy to the world Paul. As always, send my best to Ms. Train.

@ftrain (grabs water bottle and sprays) NO PAUL! NO!

@chx yeah on our older servers I wish so badly I could wave a magic wand and turn them all into new AMD machines.. we have purchased several racks of awesome AMD goodness and now I'm spoiled!

@chx but in general I would say interest in bifurcation is directly proportional to the number of cores on offer. Intel not doing so hot in this area, if you haven't noticed 😉

@chx for the system in question, quad wouldn't work -- Ghost Canyon. Not enough lanes. Also _might_ not have enough cores (8c/16t), but I can't tell yet, the data is not there. This is my first bifurcation experiment so I thought I'd start small.

@raccettura no! I demand that you desist, so that I may proceed ;)

@chx $42 is expensive?

@stevesi no, sorry, we're all just here for the oven.

@textfiles nice. Which model is this specifically?

ah, should have mentioned, above times are times to copy a single k32 Chia plot at 101GB, or 108,876,004,888 bytes.

@textfiles worth it! I have one and it's awesome!

@tobermatt possibly. I lived in a relatively dipstick area of the USA as well.

@ericlippert that is me and us at every beach, stereotypically true

it's kind of silly, but I love the zen of digging holes at the beach.

@devopstom unless you brought actual hydraulic equipment, I don't think that's even *possible*

@chx yeah a triple monitor portable folding thing has DEFINITE appeal, in a batcave kinda way .. what's out there? you are my go-to person on amazing obscure tech items!!

@sarahjeong remember that guy that fell in that hole that one time? I hope he's OK!!

@Pinboard @ev How many with ad blockers enabled?

I can also nerd out over pens and pencils with the best of 'em!! Just released, the magical and inexpensive G-750! https://t.co/dbJA39BwKf

@thirstybear @bryanl @ecomba yes, but if the org is VERY VERY large you may never see that person. At any small or medium org absolutely, see:

https://t.co/YvhBcJ0cV4
https://t.co/9bv1Wfygcq

I think I overpaid a bit for that domain because the guy was a little *too* happy 😁

@textfiles yeah 2FA/MFA makes me just laugh and laugh at potential hackers. Good fucking luck.

@snorp @castrojo I have the Embody from 2014 but I have kinda worn out the fabric on it and I'm not sure what to do next.. searching for "reupholster embody chair" leads to.. not much..

@jcoehoorn yeah the wikipedia tension absorbed from that model is substantial.. but that strictness is part of the reason it all works, so.. it's a tradeoff

@Patagonicus42 @bigolewannabe @mifune Wow is this true @jmechner ?

@chx @hexalys I take that back, with a VERY high quality interface enclosure it is possible. the good stuff is not cheap though.

@migueldeicaza Me? Nothing. It is fantasy football for finance nerds. I don’t know if you noticed but fantasy football is, like, a trillion dollar industry. And it is so so very dumb. But. People are gonna people.

@IvyMike No idea

@eddasaurus @Carnage4Life So like.. sharepoint, then? Didn’t Bill Gates appoint himself the PM of sharepoint back in the day because it was so strategic?

@castrojo is this a new design / model?

@Carnage4Life do you think this will kill Teams (I think it *definitely* will), or is it to bolster Xbox One which lost against the PS4/PS5?

@OmarShahine yeah, vertical is at a premium. widescreen cost.

@migueldeicaza I always thought that too, but I now believe bitcoin et al are here to stay, for better or worse. All we can do is support the eco-friendly versions, so that's what I'm doing.
