using a T470s currently with 20GB memory and a 2tb ssd, but it cannot keep up anymore because it has only 2 CPU cores Ubuntu/wayland is really sluggish sometimes. i think i'll go for a 5th gen T14. too bad that you can't upgrade the RAM anymore on the new T14s models... and also they ditched the LAN port at some point on the s

Xiaomi still need to improve their UX and also match the UI to western culture, in spite of now being a global "tech giant" they still want to convince everyone else to be Chinese?

Your dream is most likely coming from a video game you played or are still playing sometimes.

I was having the free fall "nightmare" once in a while and i was on my bike falling free. But. Every time i touched the ground i kept going on them wheels no problem. Then it hit me, once in a while i had been playing this game on my phone Hill Climb, where i found myself with the motorbike on the moon which is a great way to farm gold coins. There is a lot of falling down on that map.

Since i had this revelation many years ago i started to "decipher" most of my dreams.

Makes me feel life is now a bit more boring though.

i have daily backup instances to cold standby qemu-kvm VMs with snapshots of qcow2 storage which are kept for 10 days and i skip deleting every weekly Monday backup until space becomes a problem (usually months). sometimes the qcow2 storage backend becomes too slow with so many snapshots and that's when i qemu-img convert it which basically fixes it but removes the snapshots, so i keep both of them for a while.

I can understand the frustration but let's face it: you cannot fool huge email providers such as Gmail. They have huge userbases and if their users mark some of your messages as spam then you're screwed.

I am email admin since 2003 and I have real email users, i don't take customers who send any sort of automated messages, and I never had any issues besides the occasional compromised mailbox once in a while, and that was way back in the day...

I think it is obvious that the author just wants to come out as the great hero bounty hunter he is and in fact did reach the HN front page, so good for them.

If he wanted to solve it he would automatically sue them back for breaching his and his clients' personal data and not make any publicity blog post.

HN is not the rest, it is not the majority. It's for a specific tech-savvy social category. This category does want skepticism and criticism because they tend to be perfectionists. This is not "negative sentiment" anything but very positive "evrika!" sentiment for members of the aforementioned category.

Would one say: nice attempt trying to tell people how they are supposed to feel around here?

This if you do have some critical thinking to start with, for the less gifted ones LLMs only make things worse.
