Really depends on what data it is and whether you want to search it regularly or just as a one time thing.

You could load them into an rdbms (MySQL/Postgres) and have it handle the indexing, or use python tools to process the files. Something like elasticsearch could work too.

If it’s just a one time thing grep is probably fine tho.

Aleph could work as well but I have no experience with it.

I guess it depends on how much time you want to invest in setting something up versus how much time you’d lose waiting for grep to finish (if you only need to search a certain column, you can create an index with just that column using awk, search that index file, then extract the full line from the source file based on that result, but at that point you’re basically creating a new database engine).

Oof, I hope he doesn’t break the norm of Presidents doing press conferences clothed, I don’t think I’d recover if he did a nude one.

It’s like taxes, they probably already know, but they make you fill out the form so they can either catch you out if you forget one, or add it to the list if you give one they didn’t know about.

Yeah, that’s definitely true for imperialist countries like Israel, the US and Russia.

I mean, that’s not really surprising. Every military makes plans for any contingency, and Israel especially has always been paranoid about Iran’s nuclear programme, so of course they would make sure they’re tracking the scientists in case they needed to make a move.

The disgusting part is them just pulling the trigger for political reasons instead of actual intelligence that indicates a breakout. And obviously killing civilians, which the scientists and their families are, but obviously Israel has shown in the past they don’t care about that.

Didn’t really get to for ages, but with a steam deck it’s doable to do it after the kid’s in bed to play an hour or 2 of something. You definitely have to pick other types of games than the ones I used to play tho (FPS and RTS don’t really work well with the Steam deck controls).

Yeah, the classic UI was better (and saved you a couple of pixels of useful screen real estate).

Also, everyone hated the UI in Vista at the time.

It was definitely fun in the olden days when you fucked up your xorg.conf and you had to use elinks to try to look up a solution. At least nowadays your smartphone can be that second working computer.

Apple’s never made a good mouse. Ironically for a long time the only hardware Microsoft made was a mouse and keyboard, and that mouse was amazing as a basic mouse.

That’s a great idea. Solves the entire issue in just a few generations.

Not after they start taking offence to the books contained within.

Yeah, Meego was really nice.

I guess they can’t really wear those on their scrubs every day for sanitary reasons. I do love the idea.

You’re probably better off just getting something that connects your HVAC system to home assistant locally, and when you’ve done that it’s pretty much future proof for whatever integration you decide to use in the future. With phones and smartwatches and automations you don’t really need a physical device on your wall, really.

BYDs are everywhere now in Australia. Not sure what alternative brands are available in the US, is it just Rivian?

I personally run it on a MiniPC that runs proxmox. You could run other stuff on it through proxmox as well. I would definitely recommend running always on server stuff on something other than your main daily PC.

You could probably run all the other stuff on there as well, although transcoding might slow things down a bit. HA itself should be fine as once you’ve set up all your automations it’s not like you need to interact with it directly and you’ll just get a little bit of lag at worst.

You could just swap them on day 364 and claim they’re a new installation. Or just say you swapped them.

It’s the only sauce you can use with their printers.

I had no idea f-droid and let’s encrypt used US government funding. Hope somebody steps in to plug that hole.
