I host my personal site at home with a 15-min battery backup. After that, I accept the downtime. Rarely happens and I haven’t had a single complaint when it does.

    Fix the headline to say “evidence says”.

    We’re not guessing. This isn’t he-said she-said. We know what makes streets safer because changes have already been tried and effects measured!

    In 1993 in St. Louis, Lou finds himself living outside the law and estranged from his Jewish family. He risks visiting his cousin Susan, a psychiatrist, whom he hasn’t seen in years, and invites along his Black girlfriend, Lili, who arrives at Susan’s home before he does. Susan has been recently divorced from her husband, Nick.

    In less than ninety minutes real time from Lili’s arrival, the lives of these four characters unravel before our eyes.

    Recommended surge protector / power supply (lemmy.world)
     

    AT&T claims the reason their router, the BGW320-500 sometimes factory resets itself is because it’s designed to do this in response to unexpected power loss, and if the house didn’t lose power, the power strip / surge protector may be at fault.

    Which I don’t doubt might be the case, I have old, cheap, generic power strip.

    So recommend me a power / strip protector you trust with your uptime. While I don’t need a UPS, I wouldn’t mind /some/ battery backup to smooth over brief power issues.

    AWS: No Peace of Mind for you. (thelemmy.club)
     

    This poorly designed table on the AWS website appears to show that neither tier of their new AI agent "Q" offers "Peace of Mind".

    Maybe the table was designed by AI, too? "PRICE", "FEATURES" and "PEACE OF MIND" are supposed to be understood as section headers, but the design doesn't work because they didn't also put "price" on its own row and they pointlessly used alternate-row background colors. They could have used background cell colors to communicate which rows were section headers.

    Switch to Sway windows by selecting them by label, like wmfocus or Vim easymotion (lemmy.world)
     

    You've got multiple monitors and watch to switch to a window several windows away.

    You could switch focus there with a number of arrow key movements.

    "sway-easymotion" allows you to use to press a key that prints a one or two character label on each window. Press that key and your focuses switch there.

    Over the weekend I submitted patches for a couple of new features. First, I added multi-monitor support. Second, I added a visual confirmation of which window was selected.

    If you are familiar with Github and Rust, you can review the patches and try them out here:
