Afaik, you can set it up not to have any image, or have any other one.

Servo and Ladybird are both worth keeping an eye on, but neither is even close to be ready yet, unfortunately

We're unlikely to see the grand price fall in the coming year. Can get a bit cheaper, though.

Fast lane is for driving at the speed limit. If the front driver goes by the limit, you hold no right to complain.

Do not normalize speeding.

You should do both.

Conditions of early Earth are often complicated to recreate, and it takes a lot of simultaneous reactions going just right to make it work - but Earth had billions of years, and we don't have such a luxury. Still, we are very close, and we already created a lot of biomolecules out of basic blocks like water, carbon dioxide, and ammonia.

Humans have plenty of faults in their design - why do we have reproductive organs, which need to be kept clean, right next or combined with exhaust (urethra/rectum)? Why do we have two legs and vertical organization of the body that adds huge gravitational stress? Why do we have pelvis shaped in a way that makes birthing more painful and complicated? Why people with uterus have bloody and painful periods? Why do we have so many vulnerable spots on the body where they should clearly be reinforced? etc. etc.

We also have plenty of rudimentary organs we don't need anymore, that are either just sitting there for no intelligent reason at all, or are actively causing trouble for us (like appendix or wisdom teeth).

This all doesn't fall into the line of intelligent design, unless divine creatures just enjoy crafting us at random and see how we survive anyway.

Sure, they could still do that, they may engineer us in a very odd and imperfect way, they could make our DNA similar to other animals to make us guess if we actually descent from them instead, etc. But this involves so much jumping through the hoops we may as well cut it off with Occam's razor. Evolutionary theory offers clear sequence of how we got where we are, it shows clear relation of all living organisms and the ways they develop into what we know today. So, it wins.

Cosmology, mainly. To someone who's barely familiar with Buddhism, it may seem like it's all Buddha's wisdom with some Samsara magic sprinkled on top of it. Really though, it's every bit as bonkers and reflective of the ancient perceptions of the world as any other way of mystical thought.

As for teachings, I honestly didn't go to deep into that, but I visited a local temple and the way a monk told about them made me feel I visited some sort of lnternet life coach with some mystical stuff on top.

Except the room is entire Earth, it's filled to the brim with most elements of the Periodic table, and constantly receives hundreds of terawatts of energy. Oh, and it actually took several billion years, not one, to come from this to Taj Mahal.

Modern science has shown ways in which many of the organic molecules could be spontaneously formed out of basic elements under conditions observable on early Earth. We're also about to bridge synthesis of organic molecules and synthetic biology.

Intelligent design, on its end, gets stuck with several big questions, like the fact our design is actually very bad, just workable, and the fact we share not only visual properties, but most of our DNA with other animals - particularly other primates.

Not here to alter your beliefs - you do you - but setting the record straight.

Buddhism looked appealing to me until I actually looked into it (I come from a Western culture)

I spy an old, but respectable man

Microsoft's Windows chief Pavan Davuluri had earlier hinted at such plans already about how the next evolution of OS will make it capable enough to "semantically understand you" as Windows will get "more ambient, more pervasive, more multi-modal". Using features like Copilot Vision it will be able to "look at your screen" and do more.

Since when did corpos try to reframe the word "pervasive" as something positive?

A simple recipe I made on a new home. Not having much cookware or even a dedicated table for eating, but found it to be nice enough to share.

Chopsticks brought to me from mom's trip to China - apparently, these are considered single-use by some places there! (Chinese folks, wonder if it's actually common?).

Anyway, had a nice lunch :)

 

Star Wars universe does have lasers of all scales and power levels.

Yet literally no one uses them well on a personal scale.

The Jedi (and Sith for that matter) imbue it with a power of magical stone, and then...use it as a saber.

To balance this stupidity, stormtroopers, clones and droids all use slow, non-continuous energy blasters. With actual lasers, they could insta-kill any Jedi, but they cannot, because otherwise the movie wouldn't exist.

 

I'm pretty new to selfhosting and homelabs, and I would appreciate a simple-worded explanation here. Details are always welcome!

So, I have a home network with a dynamic external IP address. I already have my Synology NAS exposed to the Internet with DDNS - this was done using the interface, so didn't require much technical knowledge.

Now, I would like to add another server (currently testing with Raspberry Pi) in the same LAN that would also be externally reachable, either through a subdomain (preferable), or through specific ports. How do I go about it?

P.S. Apparently, what I've tried on the router does work, it's just that my NAS was sitting in the DMZ. Now it works!
