  • Playing in fresh servers are always a delight. How many players do you have?

  • RIP in Java trident drop rate

  • Jio Fiber in India

    You can check this forum post for details. Other IoT appliances were connecting to the hidden SSID.

  • I guess I am safe then. There is too much spying in the living room anyways.

  • Please don't give them any ideas. I know that some ISPs already provide routers with hidden SSIDs which are kind of used like a mesh. TVs, in collaboration with those ISPs, them can communicate.

  • Security by obsoleteness

  • Right now, I have one of those cheap google sticks. But I want to eventually shift to an open-source solution using an RPi or a mini-pc.

  • Ethernet over HDMI

    Thanks for this. Looks like it's a rare protocol.

    Excerpt from the article

    If you have an HEC-compatible device, it will most likely be self-described somewhere in the user’s manual. Unfortunately, this technology is rarely implemented, and you would be hard-pressed to find a device that uses HEC. Through our research, we were unable to find any modern consumer device that uses HEC.

    I am slightly relieved.

  • But if you are unsure you can test it by connecting and seeing if the TV is getting a connection

    I might be a bit paranoid but I suspect that in such a scenario, the TV will report that there is no connection but will keep on sending data to remote servers.

    Fortunately in my area there are no open WiFi networks but disconnecting the WiFi card is a good suggestion. Wish we had physical kill-switches in all devices.

  • This guy, doesn't need clarification questions, doesn't explain how he came to the answer, doesn't add boiler plate words like "This could be, this might be".

    He just answered.

  • Cowards!

  • Lol, I was playing Minecraft on my own self-hosted server the entire time.

  • Sorry, you can't poop because AWS is down

  • This has been fixed. Check rest of the article.

    mm was placed for an legitimate purpose.

  • Do you want to get called by HR? Because that's how you get called by HR

  • I will have to try this!!

  • If I go any more extra miles and I'll be at the door-step of a different company

  • I'm currently using Nobara. I shifted from Bazzite to Nobara because I also use my PC for work and package installation was a pain if it was outside flatpaks.

    Nobara is only an issue if you are using very old Nvidia GPUs. It's been working fine for me.

    as long as you’re somewhat familiar with what RPM packages

    Agree. It's very similar if you know apt

    how to work around issues with their signatures (usually - a trivial matter)

    Haven't faced this so far.
