The Plane That Crashed Yesterday Was the Same One a Dead Boeing Whistleblower Warned About in c/globalnews@lemmy.zip
[–] daq 2 points 1 day ago

I don't think you watched either video.

He very specifically said it's nearly impossible to take off without flaps because plane will aggressively complain about taking off in incorrect configuration.

He also very clearly said that new footage made RAT deployment obvious and that's why he changed his opinion.

Not defending him or trying to convince you and I'm certainly not an expert, but he knows what he's taking about (a lot of his prior analysis was confirmed by investigators) and is not afraid to admit to being wrong. I have no reason not to trust him.

Did some new information come out? Last analysis video I watched seemed to point to pilots accidentally retracting flaps instead of landing gear.

Oh, I see he already posted an update : https://youtu.be/8XYO-mj1ugg

Even India assassinated Nijjar without any repercussions in Canada. America sure as fuck can get Musk to hang himself Epstein style.

Seems bizarre that Newsom is not on the list when he's the most likely to win.

I've had zero compatibility issues (other than garbage docking stations using display link) but I was always just buying Dell. I just tried an Asus and have a ton of problems. Hardware is still an issue on Linux unless you're using the most common shit.

Daily driving OpenSuse for ~20 years.

Sort of a win since you didn't even reply to the right comment :-)

I hate to shit on your general point, but they absolutely do ask in this case.

How can we break past Apple and Google? in c/buyeuropean@feddit.uk
[–] daq 2 points 4 weeks ago

That's exactly what I did, except I went the Meross route instead of zwave to save some $. My house is split between zwave for critical stuff and wifi/zigbee/matter for stuff that I don't really care about and don't want to waste zwave money on.

$20 and MyQ can go fuck itself. Unexpected benefit is that because Meross controller emulates physical button press, it skips the delay and loud beeping/lights flashing warning that MyQ implemented on remote door close.

I guess you could use Samsung watch for nfc payments, but you lose a bunch of functionality without Samsung phone.

I use MyQ, but can live without it and it's a shitty app anyway. Not sure why even bother having a smart phone without Wallet and Auto though. Unless you live in a city where nobody drives and everyone still takes cash?

How do I stop my partner from taking over every Bluetooth connection? in c/techsupport@lemmy.world

It's usually a car setting. Have you looked into BT options in the car? Precedence and auto connect are both configurable on my cars. One is POS, another is a nice car from different manufacturer. Both relatively new though.

Any way to disable taskbar on pixel fold 9? (self.askandroid)
 

It shows up every time I dismiss or switch apps and displays over other stuff that might be more relevant. Any way to turn it off?

How to figure out why BTRFS drive reports it is out of space (self.linux)

# sudo btrfs fi df /mnt/disk3
Data, single: total=12.70TiB, used=12.27TiB
System, DUP: total=8.00MiB, used=1.34MiB
Metadata, DUP: total=15.00GiB, used=14.50GiB
GlobalReserve, single: total=512.00MiB, used=608.00KiB

# mkdir /mnt/disk3/tst
mkdir: cannot create directory ‘tst’: No space left on device

I suspect this is BTRFS balancing issue, but even BTRFS's own utility is indicating there's still SOME space left. Certainly should be enough to create a directory.

Any ideas?

Just in general BTRFS default options for creating new volumes seem to not work well for disks that I intend to fill completely immediately after formatting. Are there better options for this use case? I just use

# mkfs.btrfs /dev/sdd1

Switching between decaf and regular beans with auto machines (self.coffee)
 

Thinking of getting a fully automatic espresso maker. Seems like machines with 2 hoppers are double the price.

I'm just curious what are some solutions people came up with for switching between decaf and regular beans for a family that regularly brews both kinds?

D4 on Steam freezes since last update 1/2024 (self.linux_gaming)
 

I'm on OpenSUSE Tumbleweed. Latest NVidia proprietary drivers on 1080Ti. Proton 8-4 crashes faster than Expiremental, but both still consistently crash.

Everything was working perfectly until recent D4 update. Now game freezes after 1-2 minutes in game.

GPU VRAM is not exhausted. CPU is mostly idle. Plenty of RAM.

Doesn't seem to be caused by anything specific. Will freeze whether I'm in a fight or in a town.

Anyone else experienced similar issues? Not sure how to debug this, but I can't play anymore and it sucks.

External AMD GPU attached to laptop with Intel and NVidia GPUs (self.linux_gaming)
 

I have a Dell laptop with Intel and Nvidia GPU and Sonnet 750 eGPU enclosure with AMD card. Monitor is connected via USB-C to laptop.

glxinfo correctly shows AMD GPU as renderer when I run

# DRI_PRIME=1 glxinfo | grep "OpenGL renderer"
OpenGL renderer string: AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX (gfx1100, LLVM 17.0.6, DRM 3.54, 6.6.9-1-default)

When I try to run steam or benchmark like Superposition though, they run using Intel card with terrible performance.

DRI_PRIME=1 ./Unigine_Superposition-1.1/bin/launcher

You can see in the screenshot that it shows computer RAM (64GB) and not GPU's VRAM (24GB)

This same setup works perfectly if I put NVidia GPU in the eGPU enclosure.

Any ideas? I tried connecting a DP cable directly from AMD GPU to monitor, but it works like crap with screen barely refreshing.

7800XT vs 6800 for ~$100 more worth it? (self.pcmasterrace)
 

I ordered 6800 during BF promos for ~$385. It is taking its sweet time to arrive so I saw a deal on 7800XT for ~$489. Wondering if it is worth spending another $100. All prices above are including taxes and discounts I can get.

I plan on playing mostly Diablo IV in 4K. Maybe some DOTA.

I'm playing on Linux using an eGPU enclosure /w i7-1165.

D4 currently runs OK using loaner 1080Ti, but occasionally struggles in busy scenes.

I'm also considering cancelling 6800 order and waiting until Jan/Feb when prices might come down due to Super variants getting released.

Experiences with EPS systems (self.solardiy)
 

Sorry if this is a wrong community to ask these question since my system is only partially DIY, but does anyone have experience with EPS systems like EcoFlow Delta?

I'm trying to figure out exactly how it works when all 3 sources of power are available: battery, AC and solar. Is it able to use them in combination if solar doesn't provide 100% of demand?

And if anyone is using UPS units, how are you dealing with lack of ground? I'm thinking of daisy chaining UPS to EPS to avoid sensitive equipment from shutting down during failover, but I'm concerned that UPS will not like operating without ground.

How to troubleshoot connecting to server? (self.lemmyconnect)

When I try to login to my Lemmy instance, I type my username/password, then 2fa code prompt shows up and I enter it, and then I just get endless spinning wheel. It used to work at one point, but I'm not sure what changed. I updated both, client and server multiple times since it stopped working. I've also reset Connect data on my phone.

I can connect to my instance in browser and in another Lemmy client for desktop.

Lemmy spams so much shit into server logs, I can't find anything useful during connection attempt. Is there any way to troubleshoot this from client?

How can I figure out what it is waiting for?

Edit: Just wanted to update that if I filter Lemmy server logs by IP - I don't see a connection attempt from Connect client at all.

Thank you.
