It's just not worth it until your monolith reaches a certain size and complexity. Micro services always require more maintenance, devops, tooling, artifact registries, version syncing, etc. Monoliths eventually reach a point where they are so complicated that it becomes worth it to split it up and are worth the extra overhead of micro services, but that takes a while to get there, and a company will be pretty successful by the time they reach that scale.

The main reason monoliths get a bad rap is because a lot of those projects are just poorly structured and designed. Following the micro service pattern doesn't guarantee a cleaner project across the entire stack and IMO a poorly designed micro service architecture is harder to maintain than a poorly designed monolith because you have wildly out of sync projects that are all implemented slightly differently making bugs harder to find and fix and deployments harder to coordinate.

So to put this in perspective, at an average cost of 10 cents per LEGO this set would cost over 4 million dollars.

And then you proceed to put on heavy armor and never see their face or body again

The main feature of the framework laptop is that it's more maintainable and and sustainable. If your current laptop is fine then neither of those matter and using your current laptop is the most sustainable option.

 

I've been using Chromecasts and it's gotten so slow and buggy. I was trying to cast from VLC on my phone to it and I had a ton of trouble getting it to show up and connect and after I finished streaming from my phone I tried to switch to the YouTube app and it just kept on crashing.

It's 2024, I'm tired of dealing with shitty tv streaming experiences. I want something completely uncompromising. I want a silky smooth experience and I don't want it to randomly break on my.

I'm thinking about shelling out for a shield TV, but I'd rather have control over my device since I don't want to deal with the manufacturers fucking around with my device after the fact.

I'd love to be able to set up a raspberry pi for this, but would I be able to get a seamless experience? I don't mind doing extra up front work to get it set up, but I don't want it to be an ongoing maintenance thing, and I'd like it to work with Chromecast so it's easy to stream to from a variety of devices.

Can I actually pull that off with a raspberry pi or should I go with the shield TV?

Damn it, all those stupid hacking scenes in CSI and stuff are going to be accurate soon

I'd like to know more. How do you actually harness the energy produced by temperatures that high? Is the end goal to figure out how to sustain the reaction at lower temperatures or do we actually have ways to generate electricity from those temperatures without losing most of it to waste?

A smart VPN will avoid going to jail for you by not storing any of the data law enforcement wants in the first place.

The desktop was feature complete in 1998. Everything after that was unnecessary complication. I use xfce desktops and it hasn't changed a bit and I love it.

That's a good point

Apple is by far the most monopolistic tech company you can choose from.

But... While capitalism naturally leads to monopolies, capitalism can't function under monopolies, so I guess supporting the most monopolistic company is going against capitalism...

Oh, I didn't know you needed apple products, the most monopolistic tech company to exist, to survive. That explains why their fans are so rabbid. I better switch from Linux otherwise I'll die.

I'm pro nuclear based on the science, but I'm anti nuclear based on humanity. Nuclear absolutely can be run safely, but as soon as there's a for profit motive, corporations will try to maximize profits by cutting corners. As long as there's that conflict I don't blame people for being afraid.
