It’s an amazing game for the engineer brained, finally got the principles of air conditioning through to me playing on Vulcanus and Venus!
- Comment on Albanese urged to ‘secure the future of science’ as CSIRO reckons with ongoing decline in funding 1 week ago:
How can we make governments think long term again? All they care about is winning the next election and that means giving the biggest tax cuts by slashing the most budgets.
- Comment on [question] Help me access my local homeserver using a public domain name 2 weeks ago:
Okay sure, for a specific use case yes you can point a record to a private IP, however this explicitly doesn’t expose your homelab to the web as OP is trying to achieve.
- Comment on [question] Help me access my local homeserver using a public domain name 2 weeks ago:
You can’t point to 192.168.X.X that’s your local network IP address. You need to point to your public IP address which you can find by just searching ‘what is my IP’. Note that you can’t be behind CGNAT for this, and either need a static IP or dynamic DNS configuration. Be aware of the risks involved exposing your home server to the internet in this manner.
- Comment on Governments keep making our housing crisis worse – and they’ve just done it again 2 weeks ago:
Beyond the obvious CGT and negative gearing loop hole, we really need to look at zoning. Developers continue to buy up land in the furthest suburbs and subdividing it into low density residential (with government approval). Our zoning regulations are completely bizarre and we need to start ending the dichotomy of big land far away vs apartment closer in, so that we can have cheap apartments further out. It’s wild to be that they aren’t massively developing the regions at the end of metro lines to encourage outbound commutes and building high density residential in these areas as well.
- Comment on Microsoft announces 50% price hike for Xbox Game Pass Ultimate 3 weeks ago:
This is for game pass which affects PC gamers too. Game Pass has at times been a good value way to play games that you dont care to own. Like renting a game for a month for 10 bucks or whatever it was, which was decent for some of the big AAA games that came out on it day one. I think the new changes wrap Xbox Live into the base tier of the service.
- Comment on Monster Hunter Wilds Endgame Expansion Moved Up as Game Suffers From 'Soft' Sales 2 months ago:
Hardly surprising that the sales have been soft since launch considering the shocking user reviews. The game is pretty good, but when it barely runs on most users machines people are going to either keep waiting for it to improve or write it off forever. All the die-hard fans who are even interested in the endgame content already have the game.

They don’t want to be contacted. I don’t think we have any moral obligation to supply them with medicines or technologies that they don’t want, even if they would objectively improve their quality of life.
No they will probably never advance substantially in technology. To get to where the developed world is today took centuries of industrialisation and trade.
But there are, presumably, happy with the status quo.
- Comment on temporary resin parts on fdm printer? 4 months ago:
Standard resin becomes very weak at even low temperatures. There are special heat tolerant resins you can buy though.
- Comment on Cyberpunk 2077's sequel is now Cyberpunk 2, and is therefore about burial mounds, bows and pottery 4 months ago:
Yes, the joke is that if the sequel is just called Cyberpunk 2, it’s only logical that it is set in the year 2. The game will be set in the future.
- Comment on Greenland's prime minister says island isn't for sale as Trump seeks control 'one way or the other' 7 months ago:
Greenland, as an autonomous territory of Denmark, is an overseas country and territory (OCT) of the EU. As such it receives funding and has many agreements with the EU. This will drive a huge wedge between the USA and the EU. Perhaps more than anything else he’s currently doing. Denmark is also a NATO country and so who knows what would happen if the US essentially attacked the territory of another NATO member, it’s unprecedented and also likely why Trump wants to withdraw from NATO.
- Comment on Tesla pulls out all the stops as Cybertruck sales grind to a halt 8 months ago:
The average use case for the majority of truck owners in the US does not involve towing. Light trucks are driven an average of around 30 miles per day, which is why I say for most people they’re actually in a pretty good position, other than being pretty expensive vehicles of course. If you own a caravan or something and are doing regular massive road trips, you are the minority that these vehicles still don’t cater to.
- Comment on Tesla pulls out all the stops as Cybertruck sales grind to a halt 8 months ago:
The Silverado EV and F150 lightning seem pretty decent from the specs, but towing anything they still seriously suck. But for most people they’re actually already pretty good… Unlike the cyber truck.
- Comment on Solar panels between railway tracks? 1 year ago:
Surely the maintenance of such problems would be very easy though, given it’s already on rails you could run a carriage with washing machinery underneath to clean these occasionally. Interested to see how serious the deterioration over time is due to the grime.
