The point is that Nvidia popularized the term, Id guess.

Nvidia called the Geforce 256 the first ever GPU.

The best is likely Vyos. It acts quite similarly to routers from the likes of Arista/Cisco/Juniper.

Looking at the settings, its an option:

  Configure Overrides:                                                                                                                                                       
                                                                                                                                                                             
   1. Allow unsandboxed fallback                                                                                                                                            
    2. Strict sandbox mode (current)                                                                                                                                         
                                                                                                                                                                             
  Allow unsandboxed fallback: When a command fails due to sandbox restrictions, Claude can retry with dangerouslyDisableSandbox to run outside the sandbox (falling back to  
   default permissions).                                                                                                                                                     
                                                                                                                                                                             
  Strict sandbox mode: All bash commands invoked by the model must run in the sandbox unless they are explicitly listed in excludedCommands.

I don’t know about most of them, but I’ve used .pw for many years for most of my domains as pw is really cheap even on renewal.

>What would make something like this actually useful in day-to-day work?

Monitoring of BGP Changes for ASNs.

The other stuff isn't something I really need a new tool for.

There are other tools by Ripe, HE and the like that already allow me to see historical data.

The only point at which I need actual up-to-date to the minute data is during incidents. Hence the monitoring.

Theres many.

Here is one Discussion/issue that is currently annoying me again.

https://github.com/netbox-community/netbox/discussions/9515 https://github.com/netbox-community/netbox/issues/20005

Netbox is full of these kinds of things. Where people ask for stuff or even create PRs for it and the Maintainer of Netbox shoots it down because reason.

erinnh — Thu, 06 Nov 2025 11:48:02 +0000

If 20 minutes is all you need once a week, yeah it maybe doesnt make sense for you.

I have a dog and need to vacuum at least once a day, currently.

Without a robot vacuum, Id go crazy.

erinnh — Tue, 28 Oct 2025 19:55:10 +0000

I like the pricing of this and especially the health check part. But the programming an SFP module part has been a thing forever. In Europe at least. Flexoptics for example have their own boxes to program optics.

erinnh — Sat, 25 Oct 2025 10:52:19 +0000

Personally, Im currently looking at the switchbot vacuums.

They recently started working with Home Assistant with their "Works with" program.

Not 100% sure what the status of each robot is though.

erinnh — Fri, 24 Oct 2025 23:07:10 +0000

But according to the FAQ, the vacuums still dont work when they are offline, as they will turn reset their wifi until they are online again.

> When the vacuum is disconnected from the internet, it will attempt to disconnect itself from Wi-Fi and reconnect itself until it can reach the Roborock servers.

I looked just now and it cost 2500 euro without any storage.

Was it on sale or something?

Considering both Graphene and Lineage have been complaining about google making development harder and harder for how long will that be a possibility?

New comment by erinnh in "Building my childhood dream PC"

erinnh — Fri, 12 Sep 2025 12:11:00 +0000

Cannot confirm.

I often look fondly at the hardware I have.

I recently build one pc for each PC generation of the 90s. (486,Pentium 1-2,Athlon)

Still love them even after having built them.

Finding back into DOS is quite interesting, since its so different to PCs today.

They dont demand it. Its a possibility that the company can do to make shipping easier for the customer.

If they dont, the package will be inspected in the destination country and taxed there. Making the shipment take longer and more expensive for the customer, as shipment companies levy additional fees.

PSD2 is that standard.

I personally use Finanzguru (for the German market, it supports many banks).

Likely to be many others.

erinnh — Sat, 02 Aug 2025 20:39:06 +0000

I find these experiences really interesting, because in Germany all major ISPs have been doing IPv6 for years and years now.

I dont think any normal person thinks about IPv6 or IPv4 here.

You need one of the following:

Google, Microsoft, Github, Apple or your own OIDC Provider.

They do not have their own account backend.

So you dont technically need a FAANG account if you have a Gitea, Gitlab, Authentik Account or something like that.
