Curious about your reasoning, especially as I bought a .dev for myself a while back (via a different registrar)
If it was in regards to the .zip TLD then I guess that is understandable, but .dev seems harmless IMO
Something dynamo based if you want to keep it for life IMO
My current bike light is a bit of the opposite - a Towild DLite with a non-replaceable 21700 battery inside. It has a remote for the handlebar, so I can switch between the two beam angles to avoid blinding other pedestrians/drivers, and also functions as a USB-C powerbank.
Really hoping I can replace the battery when it eventually gives up the ghost - might need to 3d print a replaceable back for it or something
The devs over there were able to create an engaging and fun game on a constrained budget, using a combination of various unity assets, in house design and modelling and a lot of attention to detail (especially with animations), which ran exceptionally well for an early access release.
An AAA studio with the same limitations applied would likely not have made anything close
Same here.
A small part of me thinks they saw the success of Enshrouded and Palworld, and are following the money, but I'd absolutely love to be proven wrong here. This sounds pretty cool.
Are you talking about extension cords with multiple outlets at the end?
The wire inside the cord could be of unknown quality - typically these can be either really thin copper wire, or aluminum/steel which are not ideal. The cord can get hot under heavy use, and in a worst case scenario, melt and start a fire.
Too many extension cords chained together can cause the mains voltage available at the end of the cord chain to drop, due to the resistance of the wires adding up.
Each individual plug and socket are potential failure points, and like the cord, the materials used for the socket's contact pins may be less than ideal. The less of these loose points you have chained in any kind of electrical system, the better. The resistance at these points may also cause the contact pins to get hot under heavy use, causing the plug to loosen over time.
Typically the fuse breaker should cut out and protect the wires before anything dangerous happens - but IMO better safe than sorry.
I might have done a poor job of explaining this... hopefully someone else provides a clearer description
Third party apps like AirGuard will track all BLE devices and beacons around you, recording the detection location on a map. I just checked mine and it's full of random iPhones, "Find My" tags, AirPods, and just 1 Tile
It also has a separate risk analysis section for tracking tags whose identifiers may be randomized for privacy
Nice. I currently play Enshrouded on the deck, and the framerate is just barely tolerable, really glad to hear improvements are on their roadmap 👌
I personally prefer Firefox's rendering, or even Edge's old and long deprecated EdgeHTML (Trident fork) renderer.
IME Chrome performs way too much antialiasing on graphics that are not to scale, and their default font hinting technique doesn't match Windows or even common Linux distro defaults.
It feels a lot like the enhanced speed and performance come from the shortcuts taken in the renderer, akin to Safari... except that Safari also opts to just refuse implementing new APIs and draft specs.
Text heavy sites in particular are not really that nice to read in Chrome for me personally.
It also supports some funky stuff like raw H.264 over UDP if you use ffmpeg to prepend special packets to the start of the video stream (Ideal for a DIY low latency video streaming solution ). If you decrypt digital OTA tv signals (DVB format), VLC will play the live underlying raw mpeg stream just fine.
Truly a swiss army knife of video playback, especially the underutilized network url file open option
Not exactly IMO, as containers themselves can simultaneously access devices and filesystems from the host system natively (such as VAAPI devices used for hardware encoding & decoding) or even the docker socket to control the host system's Docker daemon.
They also can launch directly into a program you specify, bypassing any kind of init system requirement.
OC's suggestion of a chroot jail is the closest explanation I can think of too, if things were to be simplified
I was curious as to whether this was proprietary or not, but code for some operating system components is available online: https://github.com/DBOS-project
Time will tell as to whether this ends up gaining momentum or not, right now it seems pretty niche... Cloud providers ultimately will need to show interest for this to go anywhere I think
