Enjoyed reading this too. Added Termination Shock to my reading list.

Someone advocating direct air carbon capture made this strong argument that stuck with me: Carbon released by drilling oil didn't come from trees. So recapturing the carbon from what we think was released from trees burned down before does not include carbon stored underground.

I have a friend I knew from work who is severely hard of hearing (and we were actually a business phone company). I invited him to Clubhouse and asked him to try Twitter Spaces. We haven't seen captioning work on Clubhouse whereas it's available to all users on Twitter Spaces.

Also, isolated to me or a tiny subset of users - the only way to sign in is with a OTP sent via SMS. The delivery is very spotty for my carrier for some unknown reason (other services can deliver fine). So like right now, I can't log in and have to wait until they quietly restore delivery.

It's unfortunate because the stability of the Clubhouse app is far better than Twitter Spaces. A group I'm with has spent promoting events and it's embarrassing and annoying to have the Twitter Space unexpectedly end for everyone if the app of the "host" crashes.

I remember seeing a JS/HTML5/browser version a couple years back. How feasible is it to port this to WASM now?

I'm sure the major hurdle is how do you get the required artwork to the client without violating copyright.

Same here but could it be that we have very old GV accounts that are not updated in some kind of number portability database?

I was close to getting a QNAP as they are cheaper than a Synology. My use case is storing home security camera footage.

Currently, I have an old PC running Linux with software RAID. My motivation to switching to an appliance was power consumption and heat/noise. I live in a tropical country so I can't get away with passive cooling. Due to dust build up, the Intel Celeron CPU and motherboard broke down.

It's been replaced with an AMD Athlon. My plan was to replace the entire setup with an appliance NAS the next time it breaks down. I'm now hoping it will last long enough that an ARM-based CPU solution will work out. My top candidate is the ROCKPro64.

Lots of dinosaurs. Old enterprise/corporate thinking. Source: I'm employed by a VoIP vendor.

Yeah, when I was looking for AnyBar once before, I kept bumping into BitBar.

This is what I do - my formula is GNU Screen and regular SSH (this old dog can't learn new tricks)

I doubt that a Chinese citizen is willing to risk imprisonment or a dent in their social credit score for this.

There could be a shitstorm of the other side, i.e. "how could blizzard have streamer defend the rioter in Hong Kong, this is an outrage!" I guess this kind of complaints would improve the citizen social credit
