This sound awesome and i’d love to try but, your GitHub link delivers a 404.

Also you hosted the original project on Codeberg but this on GitHub. Is it because of GitHubs ability to build binaries for a wide range of systems or because of Codebergs latest availability issues?

That sounds like a reasonable dress code!

Both WD Blues and Seagate Barracudas are (often) CMR.

I don’t know about WD Blue but modern Barracudas (not Pro!) use SMR.

But anyway, I wanted to add a thought regarding SMR vs. CMR: It’s true that SMR has inferior write speed compared to CMR and that you can experience the effect even after writing a few gigabytes. I don’t know if I would call it unbelievably slow though: When writing to SMR drives, I experienced write speeds around 30 MiB/sec which is slow but considering you may be writing to a NAS that is only connected to a 1 Gbps network it is only around 30 % of the write speed you may reach with proper drives. It’s slow but it gets the job done when you’re not in a hurry and have a tight budget.

Also there are other possible bottlenecks you may encounter: I for example built my homeserver with used enterprise drives in mind and therefore opted for software RAID 6 for double the fail-safety. Turns out that writing to that array is so heavy on my servers CPU that it throttles writing to almost the same point as SMR drives which defeats the whole point of using enterprise drives. 🤣 This may not be a problem for OP because they wrote about buying 2 or 3 drives but everyone should always consider the whole system and not single components.

You can’t solve this problem by restricting access for teenagers. They find a way to circumvent the restrictions as they always found a way to do the things they want, as harmful as they might be. Also toxic behaviour on social media is not a teenager issue but a men issue and should be treated as such.

I don’t know if anyone in the world does this too, but here in Germany, (when not using dried egg) we just use boiled egg and cut it in slices with an Eierschneider 🤣

So it’s mostly about the shape so that you can put the egg on toast? That I can understand but I think I prefer fried egg on my toast 😬

Im not sure if it’s because I’m from Europe and it being not so popular here or because I’m a cretin but I don’t get poached eggs. Why would you take extra steps to prevent the egg from dissolving in the water when you can simply cook it inside it’s shell?

Wait what? Where? When? Which episode?

Nah just a dad.

Nope, they’re thigh-high stockings.

You never stop learning.

Ugh, I wish my wife would see this. She’s been complaining that she couldn’t open her Google search results because the links go through some adserver PiHole is blocking (probably their sponsored links). I put her phone on the “don’t block anything at all” list and she’s been happy ever since 🤷

I am using DuckDNS and it’s working perfectly for me. I use the DynDNS feature of my Fritz!Box to update my DuckDNS-IP. The documentation on their website is spot-on for me, even for my IPv6 and I never had any issues with DuckDNS.

What I like most about the service is the possibility to use subdomains like my-service.my-username.duckdns.org. I don’t know whether this is a commong feature or not.

When you had problems updating your IP Adresse did you consider that DNS information takes some time to propagate through the internet? I think it is not guaranteed that you can access a recently changed domain.

How did you test your DuckDNS entries?

I’m contemplating giving the wood some additional protection, but I don’t think it’s worth the effort.

You could build the roof of her entrance with a little slope so that water can run off it. This alone would substantially protect the wood. Konstruktiver Holzschutz for the win! 💪

There was also log4j.

Huh? I mean… I agree that a lot of people in this thread act surprisingly hostile to you but I wasn’t even referring to those people, just trying to give an answer to your question, that feels kinda underrepresented in this thread: We’re all wired differently and need different forms and levels of stimulus to function properly. 🤷

Even though I am listening to podcasts almost all the time I am outside, doing groceries, commuting, running errands, I can totally get that there are people whose brains are wired differently than mine that need what you might describe as auditory monotony because listening to familiar sounds in a familiar surrounding gives then safety and is easier on their brains.

I don’t find this surprising because most people need some degree of routines or rituals to function so I don’t see why this human tendency to reduce complexity (see: Niklas Luhmann) wouldn’t apply to what you’re listening or not listening to.

This doesn’t have to do anything with brain rot, just that brains work differently and need different stimuli.

I agree! The time loop was okay when I was just exploring more or less aimlessly but it got super stressful when I started finding leads I wanted to follow…

Hmm… In my opinion you can’t really compare Balatro and Brotato. You’re right, both games are about making numbers big but the way, they scratch that itch is completely different in my opinion.

Of course the gameplay loops are different and when you’re more into the action oriented approach of Brotato, Balatro just might not be for you, but that’s not my point: In my opinion in Brotato you build your character and when everything goes right you reach a point where you begin to scale and roll and become pretty much unstoppable for the rest of the run. In Balatro you have more RNG caused variance in the main gameplay loop so you might have a rounds where you barely win and rounds where you draw just the right cards and destroy the Blind.

For me, a Brotato run feels kinda more “linear” while a Balatro run has more ups and downs even when going well.

I really love the idea that the monks spent 16 years in silence contemplating Grönings proposal until they finally came to a conclusion. This is Jedi Master level of weirdness.

In reality they probably forgot about it and he brought it up again after all that time.
