Rude tone apart, this is absolutely true. Nobody thinks satellite Internet is meant to compete with fiber to the door.

Is that an issue with the format or the currently available tools though?

Any brands you would recommend?

Why can’t the admin just change the Lemmy source code to not hash anymore?

Or Castlevania?

I’ve been testing out restric and kopia for backups. Anyone with experience with these know the pros and cons vs. Borg?

I agree with all that. But I’m talking about exact integer values as mentioned in the parent.

I just think this has to be true: count(exact integers that can be represented by a N bit floating point variable) < count(exact integers that can be represented by an N bit int type variable)

Yeah, that was my guess too. But that just means they could return a long (or whatever the 64 bit int equivalent in java is) instead of an int.

I don’t think that’s possible. Representing more exact ints means representing larger ints and vice versa. I’m ignoring signed vs. unsigned here as in theory both the double and int/long can be signed or unsigned.

Edit: ok, I take this back. I guess you can represent larger values as long as you are ok that they will be estimates. Ie, double of N (for some very large N) will equal double of N + 1.

No, I get that. I’m sure the programming language design people know what they are doing. I just can’t grasp how a double (which has to use at least 1 bit to represent whether or not there is a fractional component) can possibly store more exact integer vales than an integer type of the same length (same number of bits).

It just seems to violate some law of information theory to my novice mind.

So why not return a long or whatever the 64 bit int equivalent is?

How does that work? Is it just because double uses more bits? I’d imagine for the same number of bits, you can store more ints than doubles (assuming you want the ints to be exact values).

Does the bt hub let you turn off DHCP? I had a similar issue with my ISP router, but it let me turn off dhcp and then I ran pihole which can run its own DHCP server.

Then, the DHCP server can tell all clients to use your preferred DNS server.

I haven’t used adguard, but it can probably do the same. If not, you can run a DHCP client on the same box probably.

I think that was his point. He said none of the other jetbrains ides are slow so it can’t just be because it’s java

But if dune is too dense then Hyperion is even worse, no?

One time for one PC for personal use

Not being able to install local apps is a valid issue. But if you are really concerned about a work laptop, I wouldn’t trust something just because it’s web based. Depending on the company, they can access that data if they really wanted to just alomst as easily as a file on disk.

How much are you scraping? You may end up getting your home up blocked.

Do you need to expose the services to the entire Internet or can you use something like tailscale or zerotier (these require installing an app on each remote device, but don’t open up ports to the internet).

Serious question, what is the right number of officers for a city that size? 1 officer per 400 people or so doesn’t sound very low to me.
