Oh no, you!
Yes. China's great firewall mostly handles content filtering and deals with low hanging fruit. Getting around it is fairly simple, and the censorship is mostly focused on stuff that would otherwise be easily accessible by the broader population.
VPN is your obvious choice here. CCP blocks most public VPN providers, so you'd have to roll your own.
You can set up a VPN concentrator somewhere in the world, and you would be able to reach it. As far as I've noticed, they don't block VPN as a whole, and default port should work fine - the reason for this is probably that VPN has many commercial uses that they don't want to harm.

Personally I don't have any 8nterest, I'm just a big believer in availability of information.

(Disregard previous reply I wrote, I made a brainfart).
Is it correct that the name is pronounced more like Fong? He's from somewhere east if Beijing, there's a dialect component to it.

I work with a Chinese guy named Feng Something. Is Feng his family name or his given name (or neither? I have no idea how Chinese names work). Also, I heard someone (also Chinese) mention him once, and I thought it sounded more like Fong... how is it properly pronounced?
Kitten Space Agency - A community for/about the game by the same name that aims to be the spiritual successor to Kerbal Space Program
Link: [email protected]
What we know so far
First of all, I can't be bothered linking every source, so I'll just list what I remember hearing from official sources, mostly Rocketwerkz CEO Dean Hall.
- Current status: Active development. Some playable tests have been seen. According to the devs the first milestones have been reached: "universe simulator" and "yeeting around in the solar system". These are currently being refined. The next milestone is parts building (not to be confused with ship building) to allow for easy additions or modification of parts from which ships can later be built.
- Platform(s): Depends on the popularity of the end result. The main development target is windows, but some of the devs are on other platforms, so porting is highly possible, just not a priority. It is worth noting that Rocketwerkz' other games run fine via wine/proton.
- Engine: Developed in-house. The name is "Brutal framework". Highly flexible and purpose-built for KSA. Seems extremely efficient and optimized with great multithreadin
Short summary of Kitten Space Agency and its development studio
Kitten Space Agency (currently referred to as a working title by Rocketwerkz, we'll see if it sticks) is intended as a spiritual successor to Kerbal Space Program.
Rocketwerkz is a studio from New Zealand and were among the ones originally placing their bids with Take2 Interactive for developing a Kerbal Space Program successor, but after they lost the bid, any work was shelved.
However, after Take2 severely botched the sequel, Rocketwerkz revisited some of the early work, as well as its engine and framework, and decided to develop a spiritual successor instead.
Some of the developers from Kerbal Space Program as well as its massive modding community are onboard. Off the top of my head, this includes:
- HarvesteR - The original creator of KSP
- Blackrack - Known for various visual enhancement mods to KSP
How much are additional lemmy instances needed/wanted beyond what we have at present?
I'm considering hosting one, and I'm just curious how much effort I should invest in doing it "properly" for everyone to use as opposed to just dicking around on my own for testing purposes.
Is there a downside to sticking to iptables over ufw?
In short, sell me on ufw.
I learned recently that yfw is basically replacing iptables "everywhere", and as I'm getting old and crusty, this means that I have to learn something new when I'd much rather practice yelling at kids to get off my lawn.
To me, iptables is fine, and I like its flexibility. I've been using it ever since it de facto replaced ipchains, so ease of use isn'treally a factor in this equation.
So my more pointed question is: Can I just stick to iptables, or am I missing out on something that can only be done with ufw?
Who's fastest, Sonic or The Flash?
Are there any canonical references to how fast these two are, for comparison?
Våren har kommet til Vestlandske trakter.
Vel, regnet er i det minste nedover, og ikke sidelengst slik som vi vanligvis har her. Jeg vil anbefale spesielt de med underbitt om enten å holde seg innendørs, eller forberede seg på å svelge unna store mengder med vann.

Continuously running screen recorder for linux?
Is there an available screen recorder for Linux that can continuously record everything, but only keep the last, for example, 10 minutes in a buffer, and anything older will be discarded?
Sometimes something interesting happens in whatever I'm doing, but replicating it after starting a recorder is hard. I also don't want to deal with terabytes of video backlog.
Ideally, when something share-worthy has happened, I'd push a button or a magic key combo, and the buffer will be saved to a file.
SOLVED:
ReplaySorcery as suggested by @[email protected] does the job perfectly and just runs unobtrusively in the background after boot.

Are there any tools that can make a visual representation/summary of oracle databases?
I have a system that involves a rather large and complex oracle database, and while the system as a whole is easy enough (for me) to understand, the database feels more like a black box of mysterious powers that I need some assistance wrapping my head around.
Are there any analytical tools to help with this? Ideally, I'd like a tool that would connect to the database and make a diagram over which tables connect to which other tables, as well as naming any stored procedures relevant to each. If such a tool exists, that'd be grand, but any other tools that can help breaking down this rube goldberg machine into something more digestible would be great.
And yes, it is much overdue for a postgresql successor. Getting the current contraption mapped out is the first step in building its replacement.
EDIT: Oh, and this database also interacts a lot with orasched, as well as external processes. A lot of things that should have been a cron job is now a procedure stored in the scheduler
I'll take my DoD research grant now, thank you

Why do I never hear about an artist "selling out" anymore?
I remember some 20-30 years ago you would sometimes hear about an artist (usually musician, or a group thereof) being sellouts, or having sold out. This of course in a pejorative way, as this was the most heinous of crimes an artist could ever commit against their fan base.
However, I can't recall having heard this term for at least a couple of decades. Has the term been replaced with something else? Is it more accepted? Or is it simply so hard to make it nowadays that the concept of "selling out" is basically just synonymous with making a living?
Are there any modern examples of this and I simply missed the online chatter about it?
I cooked something new (old) today: Burnt paper. Came out perfect.
Recipe:
- Burn the corners off of one sheet of paper with a lighter. I used A4, but I'm sure US Letter works too.
- Crumple it some and then straighten it out.
- Make some black coffee, any temperature and pour it into something that can fit the paper laying flat
- Bathe the paper until properly stained (or to taste, I guess)
- Roast the paper on 100 degrees C for 30 minutes with the convector fan running
The result is a perfect "treasure map" for use as a D&D prop during tonight's session with my kids.
Which song are they covering here? Small snippet played as Diane Morgan walks into the studio
I watched this interview earlier today, and upon hearing the studio band play that snippet of music, I immediately recognized it as something I've heard before.
I want to say that the original has a woman singing the melody?
Also, I think what we're hearing is the bridge of a song, rather than the verse or chorus.
The song starts at 1:05 in case you don't want to watch the rest of it.
EDIT: For fucks sake, of course it's Belgian techno anthem Pump Up the Jam.... I lol'd. Thanks to the responders for reminding me.
How do I add personal tags to users?
I saw a screenshot the other day of someone having tagged someone else with a note to help them recognize them later.
For example, if I wanted to tag [email protected] with a note of "Admits to sometimes secretly dressing up like Tarzan", so that I see it next to their name every time I read a comment/post.. how do I do this?
Bonus-question: Is this possible in my preferred app, Voyager?
Note: GatoB may or may not secretly dress up as Tarzan from time to time, I do not know. Not shaming either way.
