Two different webs very close together. I like to imagine they'd chat about their days of they could!

Seeing that Uncle Bob is making a new version of Clean Code I decided to try and find this article about the original.

If you'd told me five years ago that there would be a Barbie movie that somehow was not only just not a cash grab or nostalgia bait but also a genuinely amazing piece of cinema with an amazing message to boot I'd never believe you.

Opening your router to the Internet is risky. Are there any guides for the basics to keep things secure? Things like setting up fail2ban? My concern is that I'll forget something obvious.

Edit: I haven't had much of a chance to read through everything yet, but I really appreciate all these long, detailed responses. ❤️ Thanks folks!

I've been seeing comments about mailing lists. They usually want plaint text emails like these.

I feel like a case can really make or break a build. Or at least your enjoyment of it. My specs are below, but I sort of picked a case at random. I'm looking for suggestions.

My current build has served me since 2010 and it's time to upgrade the CPU, Motherboard, and case. Everything that can be replaced easily has been and it's really showing it's age. I mention this because it's likely the case I pick will be used for the next ten years of my life!

Stuff I care about

• Ease of opening for cleaning/assembling. Part of why I don't clean my current on as much as I should is how annoying it is to open.
• Ease of moving. I'm more interested in handles than weight, but I still don't want something stupidly heavy.
• Size. I'd prefer something a little too big rather than something a little too small. I don't necessarily want a full tower though. As long as I can get in easily and there is some extra room for the next GPU I'll inevitably buy in the next 10 years I'm good.

Stuff I don't care about

• Water cooling. I have zero interest in getting custom water cooling. Too much effort for me.
• Looks. I don't really want some crazy RBG thing, but I also don't specifically need some super minimalist thing either.
• Price. So, obviously I don't want to waste money, but if I need to splurge a little I'm willing to. Within reason.

This thread is frustrating. Everyone seems more interested in nitpicking the specifics of what OP is saying and are ignoring that a forum sends you your password (not an automatically generated one) in an email on registration.

I have an unfinished basement. It would be a great place for a workshop but some hobbies don't do well in a dusty environment. Would setting up an air purifier help? Even then I'm concerned it wouldn't get the entire volume of air.

One idea is to just cover the area in a tarp (or something more permanent) while not in use.

I hate to tidy up and will very likely forget even if I don't get lazy and I don't want to have stuff get dusty because it's laying out for a while.

I assume the dust is coming from the rafters when we walk around upstairs but I'm not certain.

The hobbies are pretty varied. Electronics (like Arduinos), sewing, painting, etc. Nothing crazy like woodworking or metalworking which create their own dust though. The dust is just the normal dust you see in basements lol.

I've been curious to try Gentoo out on a VM to see what it's like. Funtoo sounds like a slightly easier version.

A few weeks ago (I think over a month) I posted this pumpkin here. A Lemming (idk what we're calling ourselves) told me that "it should be a lot bigger before it gets it's first flower." I was already nervous that it and all my other plants weren't growing well. After some discussion some fish fertilizer was recommended. I suppose any would've worked but regardless, it's getting really big now.

The results were pretty dramatic. Nearly overnight it felt like. Every day I've seen visible growth. I'm even seeing the female flower buds so we're getting close to the pumpkin growing stage! The pictured ones are male. The seed pack says scientists hypothesize that the male flowers show up first to get the bees in the area by the time the female ones arrive.

I've been sending pictures of it nearly everyday to my gardening friend who dreams of becoming a squash farmer when she retires.

I've been very impressed with this plant. You may even see a small snap in the vine. When it reached the edge of the bed it broke after a big storm. I propped it up a bit with a card board box and it's been fine. No wilting. It was at a 90 degree angle, too.

Note that I mean the open version VSCodium and not VSCode. Even after manually installing the Python and Pylance vsix files into Codium I wasn't getting the Pylance hints in the editor. I find them super useful for ersatz static typing and just general problems.
