Could you deep fry the spoons in your oil of choice? Imagine a commercial fry cook from a fast food restaurant. The heat would open the wood pores there by removing moisture content replaced with penetrant from the oil bath. Remove, let cool, and wipe off. In theory I don't believe there's anything wrong with the idea.

Deep frying works well when the oil is held well above water's boiling point, keeping excessive amounts of oil from soaking in because steam escaping from the food keeps excessive oil from entering. That doesn't work with wood.

That's exactly why it will work great, allowing deep oil penetration, no?

I noticed something like this earlier, in the android app you can have it rewrite a paragraph, and then and only then do you have the option to send that as a text message. It's just a button that pops up. Claude has an elegance to it.

I'm writing this on a grapheneos pixel 5. I have the app for very-large-USbank and a few others. With 'exploit protection compatibility toggle' enabled they works fine. In what regard this applies to device attestation I couldn't say.

It doesn't. The app likely uses one of the others, dumb methods of detection.

This only applies to Windows and I think you're referencing desktops.

Ten years ago I think rule of thumb was uptime of not greater than 6 months. But for different reasons. (Windows Server...)

On Solaris, Linux, BSDs etc. it's only necessary for maintenance. Literally. I think my longest uptime production system was a sparc postgres system under sustained high load with uptime of around 6 years.

With cloud infra, people have forgotten just how stable the Unixken are.

There is literally no way. Spill the beans!


Sorry, thought I had posted, but didn't get through. It's a T480 with the 72Wh and the 24Wh battery running on FreeBSD. Screen has also been replaced with a low power usage screen which helps a lot in saving battery while still giving good brightness.

Most of the time I am running StumpWM with Emacs on one workspace and Nyxt in another. So just browsing and coding mostly.

OpenBSD gets close, but FreeBSD got a slight edge battery wise. To be fair, that is on an old CPU that still has homogenous cores. More modern CPUs can probably benefit from a more heterogenous scheduler.


Probably has the extra big battery. Thinkpads have options for different sized batteries.


Or they just got one of the 'good' models and tuned linux a bit. I have a couple lenovo's and its hit/miss, but my 'good' machine has an AMD which after a bit of tuning idles with the screen on at 2-3W, and with light editing/browsing/etc is about 5W. With the 72Wh battery that is >14h, maybe over 20 if I was just reading documentation. Of course its only 4-5 if i'm running a lot of heavy compile/VMs unless I throttle them, in which case its easy over 8h.

One of my 'bad' machines is more like 10-100W and i'm lucky to get two hours.

Smaller efficient CPU + low power sleep + not a lot of background activity + big battery = very long run times.


!!! I can get my laptop to 7.5W under web browsing with powertop tuning, but not 5. What did you do?


72Wh + 24Wh battery (one swappable one internal) and running FreeBSD Current.


Philosophically: L'État, c'est moi, build your crappy cgi scripts with nginx or apache all from the CLI and all in vim and you will understand.

Practically: Ports 22, 80, and 443 open and directly accessible from 0.0.0.0/0 is extremely manageable.


Why would anyone today leave port 80 open? I do https by default even for my blog.


For me personally it's just old configs I have that redirect from port 80 to 443. You're right though - probably unnecessary in this day and age.


Own using "chaqueta" instead of "chamarra".

This is a regional bro distinction. I have certainly heard chaqueta used by respectable people in Jalisco. This joke is a reflection of people that don't travel.

In Jalisco y Nayarit the normative word for the large beer bottles is caguama. In central MX that word is ghetto.


A number of years ago driving late one evening an interview of his came on the radio. It might have originally been WGBH or a Canadian affiliate I can't recall, but just listening to him talk and expound on his views of the world gave the same thrill as reading Neuromancer and that same thrill of exploring the world through a phone line.


I can recommend „No Maps for These Territories” (found bootleg on YouTube) for that kind of thing.


I used a GL.Inet yellow hockey puck device 8 hours a day for about 6 months in the exact configuration mentioned. Interface and form factor, all are great, but your internet speed will be limited by the CPU. It was woefully under powered for VPN crypto.
