Unlikely.
The in-house scanning service at the Internet Archive (IA) differs from the licensing agreements entered into by other libraries. These agreements see libraries license ‘official’ e-book versions from publishers, who charge for every book that’s lent out to patrons.
Short answer: Mobile hot spot (w/ your own cellular device) is preferable to public wifi from a security perspective.
There are other considerations, such as how much cellular data downloads cost to you, what sites you’re visiting, what you’re actually doing, etc. In general, it’s advisable to avoid public wifi if you can, but if you must connect to public wifi, then you should make darn sure you connect to the right network (watch out for imposter networks w/ a legitimate looking name) and use VPN (ideally a paid service) to encrypt your traffic. Even with both of these measures, you’re best off avoiding sensitive activities like online banking on public wifi. If you must do banking or other sensitive stuff, either do it on your phone or wait until you get home.
Hope this helps.
Editing to add: When I initially responded, I’d forgotten which community I was in. In this context, I believe the other responses are better than mine, but I’ll keep mine up in case it helps other readers.
Aren’t we still vulnerable through VMs, though? I seem to remember reading something about why Qubes OS is safer than a regular VM, having to do w/ zero trust, etc.
Sure, but what’s the claim? I don’t understand playlists for FAST services, nor why an evil corporation would care enough to file a DMCA suit, no matter how frivolous. Is it because these playlists somehow magically block the ads? Do they give non-paying customers access to something normally behind a paywall? Like what am I missing here? Something is not adding up.
I don’t use any FAST services. I know what a playlist is in like Winamp and stuff, but why/how could a playlist be considered a DMCA violation for these FAST services? I read the article, but I’m still confused.
I dunno at what school this photo was taken, but in my day, it was not uncommon for students in dorms to have mini whiteboards on their doors so people could leave messages (often in the form of specific private body parts). Mind you, I went to school before everybody had iPhones.
What I believe we’re looking at here is a photo of somebody’s (presumably Joseph Silva’s) door with a mini whiteboard and someone’s (again presumably Joseph Silva’s) contact info, which happens to be a Lemmy user.
The key word here is Lemmy, which would explain why OP shared this photo on !fediverse@lemmy.world.
I wonder how much of it is Disney thinks this might actually work versus the ole delay, delay, delay tactic. Probably a little bit of both.
I started out with Memmy and was kinda meh about it. Not bad but not great. Then I found Voyager and never looked back. As a paid Apollo refugee, Voyager makes me almost forget that I’m on a different platform from the days of yore.
shared node in one of those image generation nets
You mean like AI Horde?
cross-posted
Minor nit pick, but did you know that Lemmy has actual cross posting functionality?
Either way, interesting study. This is the type of content that I Red er… Lemmy for, so thanks for posting. I use Voyager myself, being an Apollo refugee.
You’re probably already aware of ProtonDB since you’re using Steam Deck, but posting it here for the benefit of any other unsuspecting readers who are thinking of switching to Linux and haven’t stumbled across this advice yet. ProtonDB lists user reviews and tinker steps for games’ playability on Linux. From what I can tell, most games are perfectly playable on Linux, the biggest wildcard is whether the online anti-cheat works on Linux or not. Good luck!
30% its [sic] in the title
Right, but I don’t see anything in the title or the article itself about 30% being “sufficient.” To the contrary, the article quotes Sarah Brown, energy think tank Ember’s European program director:
The EU is “very much on the way” to its goal of having renewable sources account for 72 per cent of power generation by 2030.
This article is a celebration of a milestone that was crossed for the first time, no mention of 30% being sufficient. You’re assigning meaning that’s not there.
In case anyone is wondering how, MangoHud is great for monitoring system performance while gaming on Linux.
Who the helll [sic] thought a minority of renewables sufficient?
Where are you getting this from?
Interesting. I wonder if that’s a bug in the Photon app. I use Voyager on mobile. When I tap to create a new post, there is a toggle for link, image, or text.
I’m guessing it’s because you’d selected Link as the post type instead of Text.
Yo dawg, I heard you like tests, so I got some tests for your tests so you can test while you test!
I don’t have a specific case to recommend, but I’d suggest browsing case reviews at Gamers’ Nexus. They specifically test air flow and temps, which should matter to you since you’re not interested in water cooling (I’m the same way, btw).
Let us know what you decide on.
Thanks for your input. I think dust is actually a common complaint with these particular controls. In my own experience, I bought these second hand, and initially the z-axis didn’t work right (the cursor’s movement was really finicky and jumped around a lot). After cleaning the sensor with some rubbing alcohol and a q-tip, it’s been smooth sailing, but taking apart and re-assembling the joystick is something I’d like to avoid going forward if I can help it.
You’re right about the cost of those dust covers being a tad steep, but if I could find something for closer to $20, I’d spring for it.
