Frozen pre-cut vegetables are the best

Jump

  • "Broccoli florets" is what you want the bag to say. A bag of "broccoli cuts" includes stalks and stems, which is why it costs less.

    • [Discussion] Do you watch sport-focused Netflix documentaries such as The Last Dance? Which ones did you enjoy the most?

    • [USA] Moving to a colder climate soon (Denver or Minneapolis-ish), how do I prepare my car?

  • Make sure you have antifreeze, rather than pure water, in the cooling system. Pure water will crack the engine block and/or radiator when it freezes.

    • What are the best ways to stay up on what's happening in the OSS world?

  • This Week in Linux is podcast that is more news-focused. It's part of the TuxDigital network. The TuxDigital and Jupiter Broadcasting communities have a lot of overlap.

  • If you have a system with long-running leaky browser instances, Alt-SysRq-F is a lifesaver. It calls oom_kill, sacrificing one process to save the rest.

    • GitHub disables XZ Repository

    Jump

  • Technically, XZ is just a container that allows for different compression methods inside, much like the Matroska MKV video container. In practice, XZ is modified LZMA.

    There is no perfect algorithm for every situation, so I'll attempt to summarize.

    • Gzip/zlib is best when speed and support are the primary concerns
    • Bzip2 was largely phased out and replaced by XZ (LZMA) a decade ago
    • XZ (LZMA) will likely give you the best compression, with high CPU and RAM usage
    • Zstd is... really good, and the numerous compression levels offer great flexibility

    The chart below, which was sourced from this blog post, offers a nice visual comparison.

    • Thank you for the help yesterday. This is the cable I need to fit through a breeze block wall

    Jump

  • Another option is to mount a junction box (like this) outside. Just run the ethernet cable through the wall, instead of the camera's pigtail. This is a more future-proof method as you can change cameras without disrurbing the sealed wall penetration.
