Another case is listing a huge number of steps to do some task, without acting describing what the end goal for each set of instructions is (common in "how to" guides, and especially ones that involve a GUI).

This means that less technical users don't really understand what is going on and are just following steps in a rote way, and it wastes the time of technical users since they probably know how to achieve each goal already.

There is a case to be made that people should be a bit more well rounded in general, and not just find a specific niche.

So non-technical people should still have a decent familiarity with computers and maybe be able to do some very basic coding. And technical people should spend some time working on their written and verbal communication.

Because in both cases, it makes people more effective in their roles.

Solution: 30km/h speed limit in cities, which is a good idea anyway for safety reasons.

It would help if cars went back to a reasonable size and not the absurdly large monstrosities that dominate the market today.

I had a similar experience with NixOS-anywhere and a VPS issue. Reset the OS, setup SSH key access and ran NixOS-anywhere and within like 15 minutes was back up and running.

I was going to say you could use a smartphone with the Jellyfin app to control it, but it looks to be limited (just the actual launching of videos not play/pause etc).

and the measurement is something like 10-15DB per drive

It seems to be a relative measurement, and so the values look to be 10-15dB above ambient, not the absolute dB of the drives. You can see he subtracts the background dB from the spl meter calibration early in the video.

It was particularly bad with XI and the graphical downgrade (due to being based on the Switch version). So there effectively isn't even a definitive version.

There's many 16gb AMD cards since at least the 6000 series. The 7600 XT is probably want you're thinking of since the 7600 is only 8gb.

Using amdgpu on that card has been considered experimental ever since it was added like 6 years ago

If I recall right, it hasn't been enabled by default simply because it is missing some features like analog TV out support (which most people don't want or need in 2024).

And don't have automatic updates enabled for critical infrastructure.

They'll supply a giant paper manual, and you'll have to look through it to find the key. DRM, 1980s style.
