High street lender Metro Bank receives takeover approach by Nighed in c/[email protected]

I still can't believe how bad their tech stack is/was for a brand new bank. I remember when I first joined they didn't have 2fa!

Their only competitive edge is their opening hours.

Edit, why was this posted this in this sub - anyone here planning on buying a bank?

As someone that works from home and eats a lot of sandwiches; a bread maker. Great for pizza dough too!

Recommendations for printing my own custom miniatures? Noob Q's by Nighed in c/[email protected]

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

You want someone with a resin printer over a fdm one. You will get waaaay better quality.

For a standard mini I would assume the material cost to be less than £1.

Expect it to be a chunk more than that as it's the cost of the printer/staff/shipping that will make up most of the amount.

This is probably a better question for the 3d printing communities.

...so lots of second hand performance bikes to be on the market soon?

Seems a bit of a waste.

I understand the minimum bar width (even though it sounds like the implementation is botched). But why enforce bits at the back be narrower?

Is there any progress on the idea to have a few slots that rotate?

Really, news to me!

Anyone else know if this was expected or a curve ball?

The forest center near me removed the bins. .. From their café/picnic area (feddit.uk)

They sell things that come in cups, or with napkins. Lots of people cycle/run/walk here instead of driving, seems pretty stupid.

Taking away the bins doesn't mean you don't produce rubbish....

Edit: I think there is still a bin IN the cafe, but most people eat/drink outside. Lots of people asking staff where the bins are. Still hypocritical I think though? (And still mildly infuriating to remove well used bins!)

Hi, I'm looking for some recommendations, mostly looking for pointers of where to go and look at/research stuff as I have no idea what is good and what is just well advertised.

Intro: I have finally entered the world of (almost) Gigabit internet, which is opening up options with what I can host.

I currently have:

Pi hole on an actual RP (will probably remain there because its easy)
Inbound Wireguard VPN on my old router (will stop working when my old ISP stops service) EDIT: my new ISB gave me a router, but it doesn't have VPN functionality
Foundry VTT that I run up on my gaming machine when needed

I will probably also be upgrading my gaming PC in the next few months, so my current rig will probably be put behind the TV to use as a server and for couch gaming.

Info/recommendations I would like:

VPN software (I want to VPN INTO my network) My goto would be wireguard, is that still a good option? (I assume I just port forward the VPN ports to the server?)
Private cloud/File server: I both want to be able to occasionally (but permamently) host files publicly, but still have the main store be available on the local network only. Is that going to be two pieces of software, or just one?
Is a local video streaming app actually useful for a rare watcher of movies etc, or can they be streamed directly from the file server? its something that I see a lot of people talk about, but don't really understand why...
Is Docker the way to go for everything? or just install on the machine directly?
~Piracy~ VM - Enabling the virtualisation stuff for Docker mostly breaks virtualbox (at least on windows) any recommendations for how to nicely run a VM alongside docker (if that's the recommendation)?
Should/Could I be hosting anything else? Foundry will probably be on there. I don't feel like I have a use for smart home stuff, so home assistant wouldn't be much use etc.

Intel Becomes Potential Takeover Target Of Broadcom, TSMC: Reports by Nighed in c/[email protected]

[-] [email protected] 48 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

The cross licensing deal between AMD & Intel collapses if one gets bought out. Here is an old article that's probably still accurate that describes it. (Has some great quotes that have not aged well....)

If that's still true, a buyout might end up killing x86/x64 in favour of arm etc.

I also don't think trump would agree without relocating TSMCs HQ to the US or something. Competition is good anyway, we really don't want to be in a situation where there is only one fab company with anywhere near too tech.

Wouldn't it dispell the magic before it got to the ring? So your gun just exploded and your ring is now somewhere downrange?

South Korea President Yoon declares martial law by Nighed in c/[email protected]

[-] [email protected] 64 points 6 months ago

Don't hold you breath...

From BBC:

The South Korean military says it will maintain martial law until it is lifted by President Yoon Suk Yeol, despite the nation's parliament voting to block its enforcement, according to the country's national broadcaster.
