"Use some set top box and don't connect tv to internet" is a common advice, but what about ethernet through hdmi? Will the TV really not reach the internet through the box you use? If not, then what is the purpose of Hdmi HEC?

I had problems where the download ran at max speed for about 3 seconds and then practically idle for a minute, over and over. Took forever to download games. The solution was to disable the newfangled ipv6 in my router; now I get full speed at the ps5.

Coincidentally, Azure Devops was also missing the ssh keys earlier today, both in the web ui and for ssh login.

I work with the same mcu. You can set up the MPU to catch null pointer dererences so they don't pass silently.

Perhaps a "game" with a different sound for each key on the keyboard? Can be created quite simply with SDL.

I certainly agree about dark modes being different. I've used vim with black background and white text (and bright colors in the syntax highlighting) for many years now, but whenever I try dark mode in other editors they are mostly shades of grey and completely unreadable. Do people really use dark grey background with a less dark font?

Sounds like you need to share the night shift. It isn't sustainable to work all day and have every night's sleep ruined like that. It'll get better as the baby sleeps longer and longer, but chances are that you'll get burned out before that unless you get to sleep better. We had separate beds so one of us could sleep undisturbed every night.

I've tried many times but never succeeded breaking out of a telnet session using that key combo. Perhaps my swedish keyboard layout is to blame, but that combo is simply not working. I've similar issues with the espressif idf.py tool too...

Oh, I have so much issues with audio in Teams on windows. Spotify works fine and I can hear the sound when connecting a call or meeting but then the audio is out. Or the mic. You never really know which one will cause problems. Replaced the BT speaker that caused problems for years but usb mic+audio seem just vaguely better.

There should be a "clearly" in there as well as that word by itself is commonly believed to bring a lot of clarity.

Regarding 1, do you mean that the server would send the response before the request has been received completely? Or is the response for a different request?
