Your ISP knows where you’re going anyway. They don’t need DNS for that. They see all the traffic.

As far as I’m aware, what you cited only proves that there is no ether that acts on light in a way such that the round trip time in the direction of ether travel is different from the round trip time in the direction perpendicular to ether travel.

It’s not merely that:

somehow the movement of this medium caused the speed of light in one direction to be faster than another due to the movement of this medium, measuring the speed in two directions perpendicular to each other would reveal that difference.

Instead, it’s that the speed of light must be different in the two directions in a way such that their round trip times don’t average out to the same average as in the other direction.

The theories of ether at the time predicted such a round trip difference because of the wind like interactions that you say.

I believe that this in no way proves anything about the one way speed of light. The Michaelson Morley inteferometer only measures difference in round trip time.

(Insert comment about the irony of your last statement). See https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/One-way_speed_of_light

I rum Creo under wine, and while the performance is great, the stability is not. Creo loves crashing even on windows, and it’s much worse on Wine. It’s the one program that I kinda wish I had kept dual boot around for.

The symptoms you describe are exactly what happens to my machine when it runs out of memory and then starts swapping really hard. This is easy to check by seeing if disk io also spikes when it happens, and if memory usage is high

I use a pixel 2 XL, but I run lineageos 21, based on android 14. I also had the feature in lineageos 20 based on android 13.

It’s possible this is a lineageos specific feature. A quick google seems to imply that this is likely so. Unfortunate :/

Mine has a setting to not send more than one notification within X minutes I under settings > notifications > app notifications > some app > minimum time between notification sounds

On linux and Mac there’s also https://vorta.borgbase.com/ which is pretty good

Your filter rule association is set to ‘rule’. What is that associated rule, and do things work if you change it to ‘pass’?

Instead of connecting with a web browser, can you try using curl or telnet just to check if you’re getting through at the TCP/IP connection level?

I was assuming this was the government ordering the companies to. They have no incentive to do so on their own. But I believe there was a bill (which thankfully didn’t pass) that would have given the president the power to essentially order the internet turned off.

I agree that the internet is far more than facebook. But if you’re blocked at the edge of the network by your ISP, there’s really not much you can do. You’ll have access to nothing, Facebook or otherwise. Not even something low bandwidth.

If At&t, Comcast, Charter, Verizon, and T-Mobile suddenly stopped providing service to all their customers, then essentially no-one would be able to use anything on the internet at all. Even if the backbone itself (which I believe is largely owned by those same companies, but not sure) and some large datacenters that are their own isps were able to keep talking to each other, anything business or user facing would stop.

Some people who run their own mesh networks might be able to stay in contact (and people would try and start some local ones as this disaster unfolds), but that’s so few people.

How many internet service providers would have to go along before the internet was effectively off? 3? 4?

That make sense. I would use tags like that:

• Flickr Published

• year roundup/2022

• type/Landscapes

• type/Portraits

• events/trips/Zion 2022

• content/food

• content/animals

I actually do event level as my on-disk sorting. And then tag for stuff that’s not that. But I think it would work pretty well to do the event sorting under tags as well.

Then I rate my favorite photos, usually using the green approved, not stars. But stars would work too. Then if you want to find say, favorite landscapes, the digikam interface makes it really easy to do so.

I’m not sure if you can select what tags get written into the image, but if you can, you might be able to exclude certain parts of the hierarchy, and only include content/ or type/ subhierarchies

One of the things I really like about digikam is the matching of the disk layout with the album structure. This makes it really easy to have other programs also interact with my photo library in a way that’s near impossible if you instead have an internal photo database.

Tags work great for me for multi-categorization. What feels clunky about them in your workflow? You’re even allowed to have a tag hierarchy.

For gaming like that (remote over the network), I’d recommend sunshine and moonlight. They work great if your network can handle the upload

I think you want something like \s*\(((?!ver\s\d).)*\)\s*

Basically this consumes all characters between parentheticals with whitespace unless the next character set in the parentheticals is ver followed by a number. Now this uses a negative lookahead which might not be supported by the engine that krename is using. You can also explicitly construct the group to not match, but that’s rather painful, see here

Firefox PWAs seem to work for me on mobile. To be fair I’m on nightly, but I can see a menu item that says “install” if the webpage has a PWA manifest. I was using voyager with it for a while before they released the play store version.
