Its a bad diagram, the other side needs to be lower :/

Same way a fuel siphon works, as long as the opening is below the inlet, and the rest of the tube is full and sealed, the water will flow.

Based on the names alone, sanDISK kinda implies spinning disks, and western DIGITAL kinda seems like it should be for high tech ssds.

Does make sense the way they have done this though based on their actual reputation.

There are two reasons to avoid a union:

  1. Fear of retaliation - Amazon et al.
  2. Perceived lack of need.

If you are well looked after by your company and are treated fairly, there is no need to create a union.

Apple may be in this category?

The link is just a lot more direct, and easier to audit.

A car mechanic buys some software from a company, internally it uses FOSS. Now they have to support the project? They might not even know it uses FOSS internally, I never read those licence things.

Doing it via taxation is probably the easiest option, but then it runs into the problem of country X paying for support, and country Y gets to freeload.

I think there is a much stronger argument for tech businesses being forced to finance and support FOSS. They are the ones directly benefiting from the free work.

Not a clue how to force that though, would probably need to be via some form of regulation. I can't think of any good way to do it without leaving gaping loopholes for abuse. :(

You'll definitely get lots of login attempts. I used to have a port 22 ssh, hundreds of attempts per day.

Would be interesting to see what post login behavior was.

To be fair, we only know of this one. There may well be other open source backdoors floating around with no detection. Was heartbleed really an accident?

Hi All. I have been watching a lot of House lately, and just started "Extrodinary Attorney Woo". I am curious to know what you all think of their portrails of Autism. Is it pandering? Representation? Romantisation?

Also see "The Good Doctor", "Atypical", "Love on the spectrum" etc.

Cutting Garolite (G10) (programming.dev)
submitted 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago) by CameronDev@programming.dev to c/3dprinting@lemmy.ml

I posted here a while back when my glass bed failed. One of the suggestions was to replace with Garolite or G10. My sheet finally arrived and i set about cutting it down to size.

...

Within 4cm, my basically unused jigsaw blade was worn flat, and by the end of the first cut (20cm), there is basically no more teeth.

For the second side, I tried using a multitool cutter, and within a few millimeters it was visibly blunt (plastic and metal tools). Finished it off with a standard wood hand saw, which seemed to go better.

So warning to anyone considering garolite, dont use power tools, it will fuck them up.

I have a moderately long HDMI cable running to a screen that has worked for quite a while. Recently the screen lost its connection. I replaced the cable with the exact same model of HDMI cable, and its all good. The cables arent frequently inserted or removed, and they are otherwise in good condition. I have no idea how or why this could happen. Any ideas?
