They did this rather well in Indiana Jones and the Crystal Skull. That uncle Whatshisface did a good job portraying eldritch madness.
Modern houses with their insulated walls and double windows are better at withstanding summer than the ones I’ve lived in while my only solace for 85+ degree nights was a fan.
I’m all for demanding proper maintenance from landlords, even if it’s not on the lease. You visit a unit that has a thermostat on it, that’s advertising it has a working AC. It’s disingenuous from the landlord to claim the AC is decorative.
But claiming air conditioning is essential is utter horseshit.
Answering the question in the image: machine learning arose from the industrial control world. The idea was to teach a machine how to detect defects in supposedly identical objects out of a manufacturing line, most often with “machine vision” (ie. a camera). Applying it to humans was asinine.
Please read the bug report. They’ve removed the setting where you could select whether the tabs remain or not.

It was hyperbole you used, and I took issue with it because it’s badly used. Have a good day.

Can we get a single journalist that can write a headline?
One is a debilitating disease that traumatizes the whole family and usually said not wished even on the worst enemy. The other is… inconvenient contact with different cultures who came to appreciate your place and culture.
They’re clearly the same, yes. /s

So do I. My company does not. Neither does Mozilla, though it appears they’re changing their mind.
Oh, if I could add add-ons to iOS, this bug wouldn’t exist:
Add-ons are not compatible with Firefox for iOS. Try installing them on Firefox for desktop.
As of now, the only way to have a page not leave cookies and local storage in your device when you leave it is by opening it on a private tab.
They had an option to close the private tabs, which was on by default. I’ve changed it to off for a reason. Breaking people’s workflow for a false perceived gain in privacy is bull. Private tabs are just local storage cleaning tabs. Pretending this change improves privacy is nonsense.
They don’t stay open very long, but I certainly am not expecting them to close just because I haven’t used my phone for a couple hours. At any rate, I want to decide when they close.
I almost exclusively use private tabs and had quite a few of them open at any time for things I was working on. But apparently since I’ve last updated the default behavior changed to close private tabs and the option to keep them open was removed.
Digging into it, I’ve found the bug report in the link. The last entry in the bug report is concerning:
> It looks like this was discussed in FXIOS-8672, although I don't have access to that JIRA to take a look at the discussion.
> Of the three PRs that I see that reference FXIOS-8672, one of them mentions:
> > I've intentionally kept this PR as simple as possible so we can release it and then be sure there is no major blow back from users. If we need to roll back it should be very simple in the current state.
> I'm not sure what would count as "major blow back" but there is at least some hope that this functionality can be restored.
> I agree with @garnetred that this behaviour isn't limited to force closing the app.
Edit: thanks everyone, I’ve installed them and everything is fine!

Hey community!
I got some switches with bent contacts. I can easily bend them back into shape, but I’m afraid of them possibly snapping off inside the keyboard and running it. Am I overthinking it?
The backstory is I’be got a 3x 10 unit Outemu switch bags in the mail from AliExpress to try different varieties. They were not packed well so some of them came with bent contacts. So I’m also gauging whether buying a full set would be worth it.
I love the Linux community but it absolutely drowns the other communities in I subscribe to in my home feed. Is there a way to remove it from my home feed without unsubscribing from it?
I would love a checkbox in the settings that would allow me to filter comments/ content from users at blocked instances.
Desired behavior: Block instance b.c, auto content filter on. Go to a post on instance x.y where user a@b.c has commented on, don’t see those comments.
Please and thank you!
Original text below because reasons I guess.

When I block an instance, I expected not to see anything from it - the nuclear option, you’d say.
However, browsing a post from another community, I still see comments from users of the blocked instance.
Is this the designed behavior? If so, is there a way to change it to block all content emanating from that server?
Thanks!
Thank you everyone for taking time to help out. While looking for keyboards, I’ve found a great deal on a new Keychron C3 Pro at Amazon for around $30. It’s a wired keyboard, but it’s got hot swappable brown switches and I figured there’s no way I’d find something better to dip my toes in this hobby.
And I’m really glad I did! The feel and sound of it is just so much better from my regular keyboard it’s not even funny.
I’ve got some sample switches and o-rings in the mail to further dampen the sound but I’m very happy with my purchase.

All those really sweet compact keyboards are super sexy and I want one. But the ones I like are both:
- very expensive
- have windows exclusive software
I’m not even sure mechanical keyboards are for me, to be honest. I don’t type that much, and the keyboard I have - a Logitech wave ergonomic keyboard - suits me, except for the humongous size and the noise (I do a lot of video calls and it gets distracting to my interlocutors).
From my research, a QMK/VIA 65% keyboard would be ideal. The VIA part would allow me to configure the few extra keys and layouts so I can make the most of the keys I’ll have. And it’s Linux compatible. However, it seems the controllers for VIA keyboards make them significantly more expensive. Then there’s the noise issue. The click clack, while tactile satisfying, is a no go for me.
I went down the rabbit hole and to find something that has a chance of suiting me, the cost quickly balloons above $200, and for something which I don’t know if I’ll like. If at least I knew it wouldn’t be too loud I might justify forking that kind of money.
Is there a keyboard for me? How can I tell if it’s going to be too loud? Or should I just give up that search and go for a normie tenkeyless keyboard?
I have a TrueNAS install with SMB turned on and nothing else. Even when it’s idle and nothing is accessing it, there’s constant disk activity. Very low bandwidth, but it’s like some log is in verbose mode.
TrueNAS is installed in a NVMe disk with plenty of room, and there’s only one pool. I’ve checked my snapshot configuration, nothing enabled faster than daily.
What could be causing it? How do I stop it or redirect it to the NVMe drive? I’m willing to create a partition on the NVMe drive if that’s what will do it.
Edit: thanks everyone for all the feedback, I’ll try these out and report back.
So my employer got me a business Udemy account and I want to make the most of it. What are good courses there for a home self hoster?
I’ve got a couple Docker for beginners courses.
Would an AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner be any useful?
I’m looking into networking as well, so I understand VLANs, routing and firewalls.
I have a decent grasp of Linux fundamentals, but I’m outdated in administration as I haven’t been more than a user for the past 10 years.
So I wanted to get myself a Kill-a-watt. Being who I am, I wanted information regarding its accuracy, especially at low power draws. I found a comparison with a industry grade equipment (Fluke is about the best out there in handheld electrical meters). It’s not encouraging, so I thought about a more proper meter, but it’s not easy to find an actual power meter that is accurate at low loads, isn’t a hassle to install and doesn’t cost an arm and a leg.
What do you use? Am I overthinking it?
I am building my 3-2-1 backup system and wanted to add an external HD to my TrueNAS machine. Since it only works with ZFS, I thought of setting up that drive as a compressed, dedup ZFS volume.
I have a truckload of NVMe left on the boot drive that I could repartition and turn some of the free space as a dedup vdev for the backup drive. I don't have any other physical bays to add a dedicated drive on the machine.
A) Is that a bad idea? What are the downsides of using the boot drive like that?
B) Which tool do you recommend for local backup? I'm looking for actual incremental backup, not just a sync tool.
Hi there! I'm trying to find a gift for my resident bassist. He's got a 15W 10" bass amp which for bass is only enough for rehearsals. He started gigging and I want to gift him a new amp. Something that can be connected to a concert setup as the band is about get their hands on loaned equipment.
I know in pro set-ups there's an amp head connected to some speakers. And somehow that is connected to overall concert sound system. How is that connected? Is that "output direct connect" I see in some combo amps?
Where can I read about it? All I've found online was useless. I guess my lack of basic knowledge prevents me from asking Google the right questions.

Hi there! I'm another reddit refugee, been lurking here since the API fiasco.
How do I search for a community across the several federated instances? Is there a directory somewhere?
Thanks!
