Are you sure you correctly read the post you're replying to?


As someone who just turned 35 last week, thanks for this.


Does one count as a nonprofit if their company is losing money? :v


My favorite riff on these is when the poster is headed to an interview but saves a dog along the way, and the dog turns out to be the interviewer.


On LinkedIn nobody knows you're a homeless dog.


Hey Newsbinator - I'm here live, I'm not a dog. On a side note to this thread, I saw your company MVP For SaaS and it's very much aligned with what I've wanted to do for a long time. How have you found client acquisition? I really like your idea of targeting marketing and design companies - that's super smart. Overall, excellent looking site :)


It's a Hindu/Buddhist swastika, which is still widely used by adherents of said religions.


Are you sure? There are two of them, each facing opposite directions


According to Wikipedia[0]:

> In Hinduism, the right-facing symbol (clockwise) (卐) is called swastika, symbolizing surya ("sun"), prosperity and good luck, while the left-facing symbol (anti-clockwise) (卍) is called sauwastika, symbolising night or tantric aspects of Kali.

Their github avatar has similar iconography:

And this other user has the same avatar and explicitly says they are buddhist.

https://github.com/neokin

no other signs anywhere I can see that give any cause for concern.


Yep! I speak from experience as an Indian.


I'd say having both of them increases the chance of them being Hindu swastikas. The nazis used only a single direction.


> So you say your current position is to be rather carefully around anything by/from Google, but you trust Internet randos to build the binary of the browser you use?

How did you come to this conclusion when they stated that they'd rather use Firefox? Or are you saying Mozilla are the internet randos?


I've been looking for a simple way to be able to listen to audio from my desktop and laptop simultaneously without requiring a hardware mixer or something. I'm currently using Scream but there is a bit of latency/delay.

Farplay seems to be more for audio recording, but would Farplay be a good solution for my use case?


This isn't a use case that we've considered, but FarPlay would work well for this. If you want to play a file on one computer and have it play at the same time on the other, you'll have to play the file into FarPlay by using something like BlackHole, Jack or LoopBack, depending on your platform.


If you are on Windows and in a single network take a look at Voicemeeter and VBAN: https://vb-audio.com/Voicemeeter/banana.htm


This is a good tip but unfortunately I'm on Windows on one computer and Fedora on the other.


shouldn't VLC make audio sync easy?


> Edge has built in support for vertical tabs, tab groups, and chrome extensions.

IMO Vivaldi's implementations of vertical tabs and tab groups is superior, but Edge is definitely a close second.


100% in agreement with you. I liked the idea of Manjaro but the way they deployed Nvidia driver updates made it feel like absolute luck of the draw whether you'd have a login screen waiting for you after rebooting post-update. I've had more Nvidia driver issues on Manjaro in a year than I've had in the past decade+ on Ubuntu or any other distro.

Switched to Fedora a week ago which I like a lot so far, but I still very much miss the AUR.


Flatpak + user maintained copr's have been mostly able to fill that void for me. The only package I've had to compile so far (that would have been available in the AUR) is wrk, a HTTP benchmarking tool. There is a copr available for it, but it doesn't seem to have builds for Fedora 34/35.


Why not use Homebrew? wrk seems to exist.

And it can work across any Linux distribution.


I'd feel deeply uncomfortable backing up 80tb of data to a $60/year plan, tbh.


What you should be more uncomfortable with is the fact that there's basically no way to exfiltrate that data in any cost-effective, practical manner and there's zero recourse if a backup storage company goes "oops" and loses all your data or one day decides to just close up shop.


I don't think backblaze has a chance at losing data, but I really use it as the last resort "oh shit" place. If I lose a drive I'll pay a bit of a premium for whatever multiple of 8TB needs to be sent my way, I'm going to be replacing a $2-300 drive anyways.


It's probably not very important 80 tb.


It isn't, and the super important stuff is backed up a lot more times, a lot more ways.
