The comparison goes deeper. Nellie and Joffrey were basically the same character (minus the whole royal drama). Both evil, spoiled brats with rich parents who usually got away with whatever they did. The fact that decades apart and in completely different shows that their actors look strikingly alike is pretty interesting.

Bike alpaca is Taylor Lautner (from Twilight)

Joffrette is Alison Arngrim who was Nellie Olsen on Little House on the Prarie.

My takeaway is that I'm gonna start calling no-bake cookies "no bakies".

If I understand correctly:

"Ask" is for more open ended questions (The vague "what do you think about" posts like you mentioned). Posts that are asking for a simple / single answer are generally removed for not being open ended. The question is more for discussion.

Here you can ask things that are less open ended and/or are looking for a single or simple answer.

I usually do everything from CLI.

Are you wanting to re-encode it to a different codec or just change the container from mkv to mp4?

To remux the file (change the container format), you can simply do:

# The -f mp4 is technically optional as it can deduce it from the extension, but I like to be explicit
ffmpeg -i file.mkv -f mp4 file.mp4

That should go very fast as it's just copying the streams as-is into a new container.

If you want to re-encode it to a different codec, then you'll need to use a more complex ffmpeg command.

At least there's precedence for Vulcan selfishness. Gestures vaguely at ENT

I feel like Betazoids are in a bit of a glass house when it comes to throwing around rocks labeled "horny tantrum" lol

At least Vulcans don't make everyone else join in.

It had to be done. I apologize for nothing.

I gotta replay this game, it was a lot of fun. Long after the Wii was considered old, I bought one just for this, played Twilight Princess once, and haven't touched my Wii since.

A few years ago I decided to try the lithium-ion UPSs. I'm on my 3rd year with them, and I will never go back to lead acid. I've got one "classic" UPS that is still in good shape as long as you don't try to run more than 100w from it, but when it goes, it goes.

These use the LiFePO4 batteries, and I get close to twice the runtime as my old ones, and they don't drop from 80% to 10% like lead acids do. The battery chemistry is also good for about 10 years of daily cycling, so assuming the electronics hold out, they seem like they'll last.

The only hiccup with the model I got is it doesn't have a serial monitor connection, but you can probably fine plenty that have it.

Spoiler 1: HintA kid would call their dad's new wife "step mom".

Also nice pun!

Nothing fancy. Just a basic 25 ft tape measure because my 10 year old Harbor Freight one finally broke.

 

No touch screens, no telemetry, no cellular modems, no wifi, no apps, no subscriptions, no infotainment.

Knock knock.

Who's there?

I eat mop.

I eat mop who?

Eww, that's gross.

Interested in taking some wild new 3D printing features for a test drive? preFlight is free and open source slicer that brings a host of processing improvements as well as fascinating new features and interesting twists on old ones. There are almost too many to list, so here are a few that caught our eye. Cross-sectional view of Interlocking Perimeters, which increases Z-strength. Unlike brick layers, layer height stays constant.

Want to mix and match different support types on the same object? No problem. How about use Nip & Tuck seams to better hide where layers start and stop? You can emboss images directly onto print surfaces with a real-time preview and use smart bridging for counter-bored holes. We particularly like the ability to preview a sliced object from the side instead of just by layer. That’s not all, either.

Those features alone are pretty intriguing, but there’s one in particular that is particularly relevant to creating stronger parts. Interlocking Perimeters increases layer bonding to increase object strength. Unlike brick layers, which staggers layers vertically, interlocking perimeters plays with spacing and compression to increase bonding in the Z axis while keeping layer heights constant. This is possible thanks in part to the greater control offered by Athena, the new perimeter generator.

There are plenty more features — like a full Python runtime embedded directly into the slicing pipeline, and a host of export pathways — so check out the GitHub repository for added detail and let us know in the comments if you give it a try.

 

Laugh track if you're unfamiliar with the term.

 

A new Linux zero-day exploit, named Dirty Frag, allows local attackers to gain root privileges on most major Linux distributions with a single command.

Security researcher Hyunwoo Kim, who disclosed it earlier today and published a proof-of-concept (PoC) exploit, says this local privilege escalation was introduced roughly nine years ago in the Linux kernel's algif_aead cryptographic algorithm interface.

Dirty Frag works by chaining two separate kernel flaws, the xfrm-ESP Page-Cache Write vulnerability and the RxRPC Page-Cache Write vulnerability, to modify protected system files in memory without authorization and achieve privilege escalation.

Also, while Dirty Frag belongs to the same class as the Dirty Pipe and Copy Fail Linux vulnerabilities, it exploits the fragment field of a different kernel data structure.

"As with the previous Copy Fail vulnerability, Dirty Frag likewise allows immediate root privilege escalation on all major distributions, and it chains two separate vulnerabilities," Kim said.

"Dirty Frag is a case that extends the bug class to which Dirty Pipe and Copy Fail belong. Because it is a deterministic logic bug that does not depend on a timing window, no race condition is required, the kernel does not panic when the exploit fails, and the success rate is very high."

This kernel privilege escalation affects a wide range of Linux distros, including Ubuntu, Red Hat Enterprise Linux, CentOS Stream, AlmaLinux, openSUSE Tumbleweed, and Fedora, which have not yet received patches.

​Kim released complete Dirty Frag documentation and a PoC exploit with distribution maintainers' agreement after an embargo on full public disclosure was broken on May 7, 2026, when an unrelated third party independently published the exploit.

"Because the embargo has currently been broken, no patch or CVE exists. After consultation with the maintainers on linux-distros@vs.openwall.org and at their request, this Dirty Frag document is being published," Kim said.

To secure systems against attacks, Linux users can use the following command to remove the vulnerable esp4, esp6, and rxrpc kernel modules (however, it's important to note that this will break IPsec VPNs and AFS distributed network file systems):

sh -c "printf 'install esp4 /bin/false\ninstall esp6 /bin/false\ninstall rxrpc /bin/false\n' > /etc/modprobe.d/dirtyfrag.conf; rmmod esp4 esp6 rxrpc 2>/dev/null; true"
 

I was searching by "Most comments" and came across this 3 year old post in c/AskLemmy. It's been 3 years since that post, so I thought a follow-up would be interesting.

I prefer D8 these days because I'm a lightweight and generally prefer the less intense buzz. I live in a state that's not recreational-friendly and don't qualify for medical (though I would in almost any other state, ugh), so I've been stocking up on D8 carts, gummies, and D8-infused hemp flower before the federal ban happens. Even if states can opt out as I've read might be an option, my state definitely will not.

What's the best way to store those long-term?

I've found freezing the gummies works wonders. A couple of years ago when state legislature banned D8, I had stocked up on gummies and put them in the freezer. I've still got plenty, and they're just as good as they were new even after close to 2 years in the freezer. So, I'm confident that works.

I also stocked up on carts back then, and I've had mixed results after a couple years. Some of them now taste absolutely terrible and others just clog up immediately. They were kept in a dark location but at room temperature. They're still mostly potent enough to get the job done, but not ideal due to the kinda gross taste and frequent clogs.

I just bought a new batch of carts and some pre-rolls, so what is the best way to deal with them?

What I've read are light and oxygen are the main things that cause it to break down. I've currently got the carts in ziploc bags with the air sucked out and am storing them in the fridge. I don't have a vacuum sealer, but I am looking to get one for the kitchen eventually and will probably upgrade the ziploc bags to proper vacuum sealed bags.

Is that sufficient, and any other tips to make these last?
