    True, but if internet connection for some reason crashes in some part of the world you still can't use crypto there, so cash is still not useless (and probably shouldn't ever be).

    I have thought about that, but Proxmox already has built-in a lot of things for virtualization and managing VMs and has less bloat because it has only one purpose.

    If i mostly use CTs/LXCs the impact should be minimal (in theory), maybe even better if i dont have everything powerd up.

    That's interesting, haven't considered that. Although I would want to run most things in CTs/LXCs and not full VMs for performance reasons. And Proxmox has more DIY feel which i kind of like. If I fail with Proxmox, might give QubesOS a try.

    I would do everything in VMs, mostly Linux and probably one Windows. Proxmox would be only for managing VMs. I want everything in VMs because it's more flexible for partitioning storage and i can have both Linux and Windows runing at the same time (which can't be done with dualboot). I am student of computer science so i use it for programming, both for college and side projects. Sometimes there are a lot of programs i have so OS kind of gets bloated, not so much from performance standpoint but just mental overhead of having 10, 20, 30 programs and having to keep in mind what program needs what dependencies, env variables, etc.. so i want to kind of group them to VMs and CTs.

  • I am trying to install and setup proxmox on laptop and use it as daily driver. I want to make network setup that can use both ethernet and WiFi, whichever is available and i want VMs to be able to access LAN because some things dont work otherwise (like NDI). I have writen config file that makes 2 bridges and every VM would have 2 interfaces. I havent installed Proxmox yet because i dont want to mess things up (it wouldn't be first time :) ). My question is does this config look ok and are there some recomendations. /etc/network/interfaces ``` auto lo iface lo inet loopback # Ethernet interface auto eth0 iface eth0 inet manual # WiFi interface auto wlan0 iface wlan0 inet manual # Ethernet bridge auto vmbr0 iface vmbr0 inet dhcp bridge_ports eth0 bridge_stp off bridge_fd 0 # WiFi bridge auto vmbr1 iface vmbr1 inet dhcp bridge_ports wlan0 bridge_stp off bridge_fd 0 ```

    its wierd that it is compared by CO2/mass, it would make more sense per callories or some important nutrients.

    Sure, they are not perfectly stable, there is always inflation (sometimes more, sometimes less).

    But its not as volatile as crypto. In last 24h difference between monero high an low is ~2% (which isnt terrible by itself but on a longer period its larger difference) and regular currency effectively has almost no volatility in 24h period.

    Acording to google 1 year inflation was ~3.4% for dollar. (so probably diff hig low is just a bit higher) Difference between monero 1 year low an high was greater than 20%. So monero is something like 6 times more volatile. (and i am not talking about inflation, but volatility)

    So its not exactly the same situation regarding stability.

    But that only guarantees safe one way transaction. If that is all you want thats ok.

    But for safer transaction you want something like smart contracts. So you can actualy know you are gonna get what you buy for example.

    Without some kind of smart contracts you are actualy relying on exchanges (so in reality it isn't really trustless).

    Does monero have some kind of smart contract mechanism? In which case I am talking nonsense😂.

    Ok yeah, sure.

    But just being currency isn't enough for currency to be stable. So i dont see how that should affect its stability. The major reason why regular currency is stable is because it is already widely used.

    I dont understand what service you would give or get from that.

    Something like filecoin, you can provide storage or buy storage without need for some external exchange. Because it is basically "baked in" the crypto (or should be, i am not completely sure it works that way).

    Probably best way to have stable crypto is to have the crypto inherently provide some kind of service, something like filecoin. In that case value of crypto would be closely tied to memory/storage price.

    Yeah, I was thinking it would be hard to store that amount of data in QR code even if image quality was reduced.

    My cousin had an idea to make (print) an album but wanted to do it with QR codes because it would be cheaper to print (only black and white printing is required).

  • Is there some app that takes multiple images and generates QR code, and of course that it can also do reverse so you can scan QR code and view images. QR code should contain images, not link to images.

    So you first said they try to do/offer to do something like walk you home, buy you something, etc. and you said you don't want that. Now here you say you want them to do something, in particular when they see something bad happening (i think you meant when they see girl treated poorly by a boy/man). That seems kind of confusing.

    Would there be a way to 3D print plastic part of a battery and just fill it with standard battery types (cylindrical batteries) and make them swapable? Because as far as i know there isn't really any electronics in batteries, just different voltages based on number of batteries in series and different mounting mechanism. It just seems like a silly vendor lock-in.

    The benchmark with 1B rows in this blogpost seems irrelevant for comparing performance of different programming languages. It seems like the execution time of a program would be dominated by loading data from the file. And a lot of people posted solution with specs of cpu but not specs of disk (hdd, ssd, raid) although that seems more relevant. Why would they compare languages and solutions in this way?

    True, but algorithms they used in this article are just a "level" higher than primitive statistics methods and even that is not mainstream in kernel parameter (and similar things) optimisation. So it might be some time before we see more advanced methods used for this stuff.
