I use similar setup (CachyOS, Apple TV, Moonlight/Sunshine), but I play on a projector instead of a TV, which results in slightly higher latency. With that in mind, I connect gamepad via Bluetooth to my PC rather than to the Apple TV to minimize input latency; all single-player games are fully playable without any noticeable lag.
No matter how much I’ve experimented with similar text-to-image projects including this one - the LLMs still don’t fully understand the visual feedback loop, and the results are far from what expected. And it doesn’t matter how the task is described, whether there’s a reference, or even if there’s a part of a finished model that just needs to be integrated into another component - the resulting models may be visually close to what is required, but they are not technically accurate.
Over the past 4 years, millions of Ukrainians have fled there because of the war — many of whom had businesses and money in Ukraine and are integrating seamlessly into the Polish economy. Almost the entire Ukrainian IT sector that used to operate on an outsourcing basis is now there. Before the war, Ukrainians were mainly a source of cheap labor there, while Poles were doing the same work in other European countries. And since Ukraine is a bargaining chip in the current war, it is in the interest of all its neighbors for Poland to become strong, so that the Russians don’t cross the border.
As long as we are talking about specific markets, I have a couple of stories.
In the United States, postal services have access to clusters of mailboxes and some common areas where mailman can leave mail and parcels, which can be entryways or some kind of storage rooms in them, for example, so that the owners can pick them up when they get home. These rooms are locked with padlocks made by several local companies. Once a key is inserted and turned in the lock, it can only be retrieved by turning it in the opposite direction to the default position, but even then they manage to forget them in the locks.
A customer from the USA came to us and asked us to combine this padlock with an intercom system we are developing to signal the administrator that the letter carrier came, opened/closed the lock or forgot the key in it. Nobody wants to switch to RFID, of course, or else the employees of the lock manufacturing company will have nothing to eat, so we had to enlarge the intercom vertically in order to build into it a lock whose transom will close a group of contacts on the panel, letting us know that something is going on. On the edge, lmao.
In the UK, mailmen are treated very differently - the intercoms have a special button on the intercom which, when pressed, will open the door so that the mailman can enter and drop off the mail without having to carry keys or RFID identifiers. Normally this button is set for some working hours, for example from 9 to 5 and of course anyone can press it and get into the premises.
I work for a company that manufactures access control and communication systems. The readers we develop support a variety of ID standards, from unencrypted EM-Marin and a long time ago cracked Mifare Classic to modern Desfire EVx standards. According to our statistics, more than 95% of customers still continue to use the most insecure identifiers because of their low cost and ease of operation.
Many of the installed devices are not properly maintained, even if the manufacturers continue to support them, because you have to pay for maintenance. In addition, not all equipment can be updated remotely over the network or even have a network connection to do so remotely.
Even if your cards are encrypted, it still can't guarantee you protection, because in most cases card readers are connected to controllers (not in the case of all-in-one devices like this lock) via Wiegand protocol, which doesn't provide any data encryption, so the identifier ID is transmitted over two wires in the clear form.
This topic is perfectly covered in a presentation by Jérôme Petazzoni from Dockercon 2015, a Docker developer, on how containerization works. After watching the video, I began to clearly understand that this is not virtualization at all, as many at first imagine.
Asterisk from 12th version supports Asterisk REST Interface, no longer need to write configs.
We are using Confluence for public and internal wiki, it has a bad search and really slow, but no matter how much everyone hates it, the market does not provide worthy alternatives.
When choosing 3 years ago, we used the following criteria:
* WYSIWYG editor. Any user must have a minimum effort to write documentation
* Flexible access permissions to various parts of the documentation. Public documentation is open to anonymous users, the internal one is divided into many sections with access for certain groups
* Multilingual support. Not out of the box, but possible with plugins
* Multilingual pdf export. In some markets, some customers prefer to have exported manuals
* The ability to inherit articles. We need to be able to make edits once, instead of duplicating the same articles
* Have a relatively modern appearance. Wiki engines are familiar to many because the whole world uses Wikipedia, but this does not make them more pleasing to the eyes, if I can say so
3 years have passed, I periodically look at alternatives, so far only wiki.js seems like a good solution but it’s not even close yet.
I recommend reading "Origin of life. From nebula to cell" of Michail Nikitin. Not sure if it's translated from Russian, but the book is fresh and considers many modern theories in terms of chemistry.
Visited Chernobyl 3 years ago, just before they cover it with Confinement.

Btw, you can easily visit it, because of lots of tours here, it cost about $100-$150 per day. I used this company https://www.chernobyl-tour.com/english/48-one-day-trip-to-th...
Idea of “decentralized” brain perfectly explained in Michael’s Gazzaniga book “Who's in Charge? Free Will and the Science of the Brain”. He’s the first guy who makes experiments on split brain and found decisions making center which works like telling and explaining machine. Recommend.
