  3. 🎨 Oh wow, another #techie #bible on how to make your #laptop sweat by #rendering #mesh #gradients with #RBF #interpolation. 🤓 Because everyone knows, nothing says "cutting-edge" like having 17 tabs of #Stack #Overflow open while praying to the gods of Notion that your code doesn't crash your computer. 🚀

  4. CW: Techie question

    OK, I am aware that creating hashes with MD5 is not considered secure in the presence of Bad Guys, but if you're using it in a safe environment just to see if files have changed since you last looked, is it perfectly good enough? Or should I still be using SHA2?

  6. anyone know anything about #data #deduplication. i have 1 hard drive where I've gathered everything all my #backups, music, docs, emails etc etc etc. but i have a few copies of everything. want a program that simply scans the #drive, deletes all #duplicates, and keeps a copy of only 1 of everything. does the damn thing exist as i cant find anything simple enough? #techHelp #ComputerHelp #software #tech #techie

  7. As played out and cliche as it is, one of my bucket list items feels like it is becoming more of an eventual survival goal as time goes on. Especially with how much it feels like society is circling the drain these days. I feel like I'm starting to understand some of the thought processes behind the off-grid/living out in the wilderness types. 😛

    I've always been one who has enjoyed traveling and road trips. An extension of this has been the want to try out the whole vanlife thing at some point in my life. As a #techie, with the increasing accessibility of internet access (between of Starlink and cellular connectivity in general) it has become much more palatable. My ultimate goal would be to dive in and do a full mobile #homelab setup. I have a ton of potential plans for such a setup in the back of my head that I'm constantly itching to try. Part of that is the work I've been putting into an IRL/mobile streaming setup lately. I think it'd be fun and kinda cool to built that all in the van/camper including external cameras in the mix. But there's SO much more I'd want to try and experiment with.

  8. #followbackfriday is a thing here? Cool.

    I'm a #techie who's spent my life building/fixing #computers, writing #code, reluctantly providing #techsupport to the masses. Recently picked up #DragRacing and performance #tuning. #JackOfAllTrades and master of some. I think I'm funny. Or an idiot. Depends on the day really.
