I run a GTX 970 on Fedora 44 KDE Plasma (Wayland) without issues. Make sure to use the 580.xx Nvidia driver.

I noticed this recently too when using Firefox.

In qBitorrent or similar torrent clients you can explicitly set the vpn network interface they should use. Use split tunneling for you browser or other applications you don't want to use the vpn for.

Same experience here, using it for years in production for our critical api services without issues.

I am currently looking for a new reliable OLED TV. Knowing they added the S90C to their repair program is very reassuring.

It's a public price API. There is no authentication required to list prices.

I agree. Our public APIs are also massively queried. The number of queries is out of proportion to the legitimate traffic. Rate-Limiting does not work, because of the volume of different ips they send against you in parallel. Our servers are not designed for such peaks. What other choice do we have but to block them.

Can't share that experience. We are in the process of migrating from Azure B2C to ORY Network and had also some initial doubts if their products are a good fit for our enterprise company. Our company is three hours away from their office in munich, but they were willing to send us an experienced engineer to answer all of our questions. This was very much appreciated and helped us a lot. They also offer the possibility to purchase dedicated slack channel support.

Azure B2C policies are a nightmare. Basically a programming language implemented in XML. Stay away from it.

Incremental Static Regeneration. Next.js allows you to create or update static pages after you’ve built your site but stores them on the filesystem, which in a serverless environment does not exist.

What i am still missing is the possibility to deploy next.js to a serverless platform where files have to be stored in S3 or Google Cloud Storage. Had anybody success to get it working, without loosing ISR functionality?

Exactly our experience too. We are extremely happy with the stability and quality of their services.

I recently watched a german documentary "Das geheime Leben der Bäume" [1] where they visit this exact tree. Highly recommend it. The documentary is based on a novel of the same name by the author Peter Wohlleben [2].

Is it possible to find out the average salary of a specific country? In the survey it's only possible to switch between US, India, Germany, UK and Canada.

I am wondering when 0 downtime for apps with disks is coming. I don't see it anywhere on the feedback page and find it rather a big blocker.

This sounds rather selfish to me. What if you ever quit your job and your team mates are suddenly expected to pick up the things you left behind? Why not share your knowledge with them and work together as a team.
