What is a gooner?

Anyone could do this. But since this only happens in Dubai, it can't be that smart of a decision.

When I was starting to use Linux in the late 2010s, I was quite confused by how all the init stuff worked. Now that I use NixOS and systemd, I'm things have become really easy. I could write a simple backup system by chaining a few services together without problems.

Makes sense. Albeit I find the idea of someone holding a tape measure more funny.

How did they measure "penile circumference" over time? Is there a guy standing next to them with a tape measure?

Hope they at least keep the engines off.

They were probably thinking that by openly opposing it before it collected enough signatures, they would have given it more publicity and hence made more people sign it.

I don't understand

Ah, the propaganda war has started.

 

This indie game is super well made. It tells a short and very intriguing story. I started this morning and ran through it with a few breaks. I can tell you it was really worth it.

 

Discovered this yesterday and had a blast. Parkouring is so much fun in this game and the story is interesting too. Even though it's ten years old, the graphics are still awesome.

 

I'm trying to remember a video game from about ten to twenty years ago. It was a tactical military battle simulator. It was played from a bird's eye view. The player could move units like vehicles and infantry groups around a map and needed to defeat enemy troops. The simulation of the combat itself was very detailed. After each mission, the player was rated on e.g. time and logistics.

Does anyone know what game this could be?

Edit: mistral gave me the "Close Combat" series, which seems correct from my memory. They even have a recent installment in 2019, do I don't need to cope with 2010 graphics. Thanks for your help everyone!

 

Title by me™

Ever seen videos of people farting through IR cameras? Well, now we have infrared contact lenses, so be careful in front of whom you let go.

Also, did you know that this could be used to create night vision without visible equipment on the body?

After playing Juno New Origins for quite a while, I am really hyped for this game. It seems like you can really build anything with engines.

 

I just set up a local DNS server in my LAN with a custom domain "jellyfin.local". I set my router up to advertise this DNS server via DHCP. This seems to work for my Linux laptop. But neither my windows machine nor my android phone use my local DNS server.

I believe the issue may be that my router is crappy, and while it does announce my DNS server correctly for IPv4, I am unable to stop it from announcing some other DNS server for IPv6. I believe that this may confuse my Windows and Android devices, which probably prioritise DNS via IPv6, and hence use the wrong DNS server.

I could now buy a better router. But before I do that, I wanted to know if someone else successfully uses a local DNS server with Windows devices, Android devices, Smart TVs, and so on. Specifically, with a properly configured DHCP server, will all modern devices use the correct DNS server?

Update

Thanks for all the informative comments! I have now resorted to using a global DNS record (jellyfin.mydomain.de) to point to my local server. That seems to work and the easiest option.

 

I made a small project using leptos, but after updating leptos ended up with some unfixable bugs. The error and warning messages are too inaccurate, and due to all reactivity being implicit, it is hard to read my code now and figure out what would be wrong.

I thought about rewriting everything in yew, but was wondering if things work better there. As far as I understand, there is no such thing as implicit reactivity in yew, and everything that needs to be reactive needs to be wrapped in certain types. But I am fine with that, even though #[derive(Store)] in leptos was convenient.

Does anyone use leptos or yew in production or for any more serious projects, and can share some experiences? How do you usually debug your applications? Have you given up on some application that just didn't work?

 

Are we nearing 1.0.0? What does such a release mean?

 

I took some photos on a nice sunny day with my old Pentax K-r. I used fixed aperture mode because I like depth of field in photos. Settings for this particular photo are f/5.6, 1/100s, 55mm and ISO200 according to the exif data.

As you can see in this about 2-3 times zoomed in version of my photo, the yellow surface that is lit up by the sun radiates into the shadowy part behind it.

How is this effect called? How can I prevent it?

Just finished this game. It was really something new and unique. I got it on the steam spring sale discount, and can heavily recommend you do so too, if you are into story and mystery in games.

Having played quite a share of games in my life, this one truly stands out due to its unique setting and high quality characters and art.

If you liked for example Disco Elysium or Detroit Become Human, I believe this game is also perfect for you.

 

Give me your recent or ancient sci-fi shows that you like. I need them!
