My favourite thing about Halo FTL is how it handles causality, basically relying on the universe to act like a sponge and "soak it up" as it reconciles it across spacetime.
Send too much mass (aka the Halo array) and it massively slows down travel galaxy wide, as the spacetime is "sodden" and takes longer to reconcile it. Meanwhile in the days leading up to the firing of the Halo array slipspace travel suddenly became easier and quicker than had ever been experienced, as the Forerunner realise that after the firing of the array the amount of slipspace travel in the entire galaxy will be nil.
The calculator leaked 32GB of RAM, because the system has 32GB of RAM. Memory leaks are uncontrollable and expand to take the space they're given, if you had 16MB of RAM in the system then that's all it'd be able to take before crashing.
Abstractions can be super powerful, but you need an understanding of why you're using the abstraction vs. what it's abstracting. It feels like a lot of them are being used simply to check off a list of buzzwords.
better compression (btrfs compression doesn’t work on extents smaller than 128KiB, which excludes the majority of potentially-compressible data on MANY systems)
Well straight away that's wrong.
I also don't get the complaint that if you create a confusing subvolume layout, it results in a confusing subvolume layout. Don't do that then.
It would have taken all of 30 seconds to show an active dairy farm, a weight gym, and other people also jacked. Bulking up muscle if you don’t have the resources is not a wise thing to do.
I will say I've never played the game, but from looking at a collection of her cutscenes on YT, they literally do?
The first time they show where she lives, they show an active gym (filled with people using the equipment), a food market with meat, and a farm with cattle.
There's 2 ways to make money off sites like Imgur, charge for subscriptions with extra features, or boast about your user numbers and views and get bought by a company that wants to sell ad space.
So even more backstory, the guy who ran Something Awful (Richard Kyanka, aka lowtax) had a pretty big public breakdown, was effectively forced out of SA as a bunch of bad information about his private life came out, and then took his own life.
Spooky Tired was married to him, and Jay's posts are reminding her of how lowtax was behaving near the end.
it’s recently been found that relatively low levels of fluoride in the water have an adverse effect on IQ.
Yeah, but the levels where it starts being noticeable (1.5mg/L) are double the level that fluoride treatment targets (0.6-0.8mg/L). It's something to be worried about if you're drinking well water and it's got a natural high fluoride content, not from anything added by the water treatment processes.
Honestly the Edge collections feature is fantastic for this, but it's hidden in a sub menu so it feels like they don't want people to use it.
They're like a hybrid bookmark and note taking feature, add a group, name it, add tabs to it, add notes to it, reorder it all, etc. Only thing it's missing is a way to turn a tab group or window into a collection and back again, it's a manual process currently (add/remote a tab at a time)
Ehh, bots have always presented nonsense UAs to servers. And since modern browsers hard-code the OS version in the UA string, pretending to be an old browser on an old OS could be a (probably ineffectual) way to bypass fingerprinting.
Funny thing is, it was actually the device they connected that was faulty, the build of Windows they were using just didn't handle that failure condition at the time.
MS at least learnt that lesson (for the most part), actually test things first.
For all the wireless printers I’ve ever owned CUPS would recognize the printer once, do a job, and then magically act like the printer either doesn’t exist or is currently doing a job in perpetuity.
I mean odds are it's the printer that's acting up. I owned a brother laser printer that I had to connect via the network, and that thing only ever configured the network on boot. If anything happened to the network connection it'd go offline until you restarted it.
There's a reason I've seen multiple people recommend using something like a Raspberry Pi connected via USB as a replacement print server rather than relying on the native printer support. And since the modern printer protocols are basically lifted from CUPS, compatibility would be improved.
The headline makes this sound a lot worse than the article does.
From the article there's basically a list of exemptions in the law that describes who doesn't need to follow it (e.g. an online booking site for doctors visits), everybody else needs to check the rules to see if they do. And if they do, they then need to follow extra child safety rules (e.g. Roblox is opting out under-16s from open DMs by default)
GitHub can quite rightly say they don't fall under the restrictions of the law, and that could be the end of it. The simple fact that it doesn't have any form of private messaging feature is probably enough.
