I'm building a new PC (for work, productivity and some gaming) and this is my current configuration:
- CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 9700X
- CPU cooler: Be quiet! Dark Rock Pro 5
- Motherboard: MSI MAG B850 TOMAHAWK MAX WIFI
- GPU: SAPPHIRE NITRO+ AMD Radeon RX 9060 XT GAMING OC 16G
- Memory: Kingston FURY 64GB KIT DDR5 6000MHz CL36 Beast EXPO
- SSD: WD_BLACK SN7100 2TB
- Case: Be quiet! PURE BASE 501 Airflow Window Black
- Power supply: Be quiet! PURE POWER 13 M 750W
Opinions? I haven't built a PC in the last 10 years, so I would appreciate advice from more experienced PC builders.

According to Nevada's report into its recent ransomware attack, a state employee "searched Google for a system administration tool to download and was instead shown a malicious advertisement that led to a fraudulent website impersonating the legitimate project."
Yeah, that happens a lot! An ad-blocker is one of your top security and privacy defenses online. If you work in an enterprise org, consider rolling out an ad-blocker to your company network!

The clash between small volunteer-driven, open-source projects, such as FFmpeg & the billion-dollar companies built on their work, which demand rapid security patches, is heating up.

As a Linux user starved for accessible document/ebook-reading options, I've been envious of all the Paperback chatter I've seen recently. So I threw making a Linux port at Claude Code with superpowers. Here's what it came up with so far, for anyone who uses Flatpak: nextcloud.thewordnerd.info/s/2…
flatpak install --user paperback.flatpak Haven't verified everything yet but I'm able to open a book, read it accessibly, close the book, re-open the application without specifying the book, and appear where I left off. Continuous read/paging also seems to work under Orca. You might need to set a universal ACCESSIBILITY_ENABLED=1 environment variable override for all flatpaks, though I haven't explicitly tested without that.
PR including Nix packaging/development setup incoming soonish once I've looked over everything, as one should with these sorts of things. Still though, works way better than ebook-convert <whatever> .txt, opening in gnome-text-editor, and suffering.
You're welcome, thanks for your work. I'll check the diff today, but you can check out github.com/ndarilek/paperback/… in the meantime. I'll likely be squashing more commits onto that branch today if I spot any fun Claudeisms in the patch, as sometimes happens.
One thing I've noticed not working are hotkeys in the text area''specifically tested [ and ]. Both just give a terminal bell and do nothing. I know WX uses GTK3 on Linux and suspect it's using something else that's actually accessible on Windows, and there's a difference between how read-only textareas in GTK handle being typed in. Fortunately the menu items work, but we might need to add ctrl or similar to these and other hotkeys under Linux.
Also, the TOC tree is inaccessible, again likely due to GTK (though GTK tree views certainly work fine.) So it isn't a perfect port, but even so it's good to finally have something like QRead under Linux.

@hj I'm pegging the CPU at 100% compiling on this Rasbperry Pi and roc isn't stuttering, buffering, skipping, or anything. It still keeps streaming the audio with zero issues
amazing
i think you can do the same in snapcast too, its overhead is mostly encoding (FLAC i think) and synchronization (which is determined by buffer size, which also dictates the latency)
24bit is generally only matters in audio editing so 16bit for just listening is enough IMO

Django's built-in admin is powerful, but it's essentially a separate framework within Django. After attempting to modernize django-admin2, I realized we needed a fresh approach: an admin interface that works like the rest of Django, built on generic CBVs, plugins, and view factories. Meet Django Admin Deux: a proof-of-concept admin where CRUD operations are just actions, knowledge transfers both ways, and everything feels like Django.

Just wait until you hear about "uber for nurses" and other "innovative" and "disruptive" approaches to labor exploitation that is coming soon to Europe and the UK as the leaders capitulate to removing the regulations and safeguards we currently enjoy protecting us from US companies just to avoid having to temporarily deal with tariffs. Ask the average European about whether or not they would rather temporarily deal with any economic hardship the tariffs may introduce in a society that has safety nets in place and has experience with dealing with hardship vs avoiding temporary discomfort now in exchange for the inevitable stripping of any and all consumer and labor protections for you, your children, and however many generations are left before the planet bursts into flames (ironically because of the same bad actors). I don't know about you, but I'd rather deal with the former to support the greater good and keep this off our shores.

in reply to feld • • •The more nuanced reporting did mention that. If the targets to meet are suitably impressive then why not set the bonuses equally impressive.
It's a stupid amount of money and nobody is worth it, but that's executive pay in general.
