You can either wait or hop from VPN endpoint to endpoint, though both are workarounds. I'd suggest that we can expect more of this too.

My small bee hotel established in 2021 has been a hit with the local population, usually fully occupied. I see many different native resin, leaf cutter and a few carpenter bees around. Lately, I've been seeing more of these bees or wasps show up. I'm having a great deal of trouble identifying them. Can anyone help me? It has a distinctive round abdomen, single pale yellow ring, and a tail coming out of the torso.

I'd be interested in a source if you can find one. The only real concern I've read is about chemicals in the wood or materials.

Thank you, I'll keep that bookmarked 😃

Thank you! Was able to make an id in that family. I believe it is a Leucospis histrio ssp. vespoides. The recent conditions seem to be promoting them, or maybe they're more plentiful while hunting out bee larvae as hosts.

This one is a Mr Fothergills hotel from bunnings. They're not bad, have a variety of diameters for different species.

I should of course mention, this was taken in NSW.

  • Mandatory Cloud Connectivity: Bambu Lab’s firmware and apps route data through Chinese Tencent servers, sparking fears of potential remote “kill-switch” capabilities.

Perhaps this will have the silver lining of helping Bambu to roll back their newer cloud-only firmwares. They're decent printers offline.

And the misleading article continues to circulate. Bose are not open sourcing any software. They are simply publishing the API for the device so that others might build software.

I've several Debian stable servers operating in my stack. Almost all of them host a range of VMs in addition to a plethora of containers. Some house large arrays, others focus on application gruntwork. I chose Debian because I know it, been using it since the early 00s. It's👌.

Hardware aside, I migrated to Linux as my gaming machine about 6 months ago. Overall, it has been excellent, not least of which due to Steam making most games virtually work without anything extra. On a couple of titles, I've had extra steps, but they're fairly documented and help has been available. Only one still doesn't allow multiplayer due to anticheat. GPU passthrough to a w10 VM solved that one.

Note though, I use AMD GPUs, so that's one less barrier.

The only thing that irks me is that I didn't swap earlier.

X670E + 7900x + 7900xtx + 96GB DDR5-6400

 

Using a new device, I'm finding that top level comments for posts don't have much by way of padding or margin on the left (or right). On this new device, these comments can be difficult to read due to a curved screen. Is there a way I can somehow add some padding?

Hard to know. Will the interface be specific to driver versions? Will it require an updated kernel driver for each userspace driver as it does now? I don't know that we have the answers.
