Yeah, my home server was being a little too stable and I wasn’t really learning anything. So I switched from fedora to proxmox, now I’ve got a nixos vm I’m going to try to get all my services running in.

Got no idea about the size of my amygdala, but I’m really good at being anxious and depressed. Small but mighty I guess

Yeah, I think it was slowbeef if my memory isn’t failing me. But I think people were doing long plays before then? I could have the two mixed up.
- Comment on Sony is testing dynamic pricing: one game - different prices on the PlayStation Store 1 week ago:
I don’t think this story is about that. It’s about making games more expensive based on how much they think you’ll pay.
This specific study in the article is about making games cheaper to see if that makes people more likely to spend, but you just know they’re going to also make them more expensive if this works out

The breading they used is all wrong for tofu. Just deep fry it as is,or cover it in corn starch and spices

Nope, it’s always cloudy. Or like some valleys are cloudy and some are sunny. But they are predictable.

I dislike the French for normal reasons, not weird nationalistic ones.

With useful stuff? Never. With random bullshit I think might be useful some day if only I find the time? Easy
- Comment on I am looking for a Linux OS 5 weeks ago:
They’re all pretty much the same except for a couple, like nix, Gentoo, slackware, etc. maybe stay away from those. fuck around and find out is the best way.
- Comment on Obsidian's The Outer Worlds 2 Underperformed, and There Won't Be a Third - IGN 1 month ago:
Outer worlds 1 was fine. It was goofy, had character, but no depth to it’s story. The gunplay was not good, not for me anyway. Can we not do bullet sponges and leveled lists? Can levels give you abilities instead of numbers? Honestly would have been a better game if it was an isometric RPG, which obsidian is good at making.
- Comment on People espousing that unions don't work should have a look at police unions. 1 month ago:
When I talk to people they seem most upset that unions don’t work for them. They feel a part of something so large that it doesn’t care about them.

Breaking news! Zenimax is still completely out of touch with it’s fan base.

That’s what I was thinking, it’s not even a glass fiber-optic. Works fine for audio though and lasers are cool, so it all balances out

We got some fun ones by me too, like Ausable river, that comes from French. But we pronounce it Ah-sable(but sable like a sable hair brush)

- Comment on 700+ self-hosted Git instances battered in 0-day attacks 2 months ago:
Dunno, I just don’t believe my NixOS config files are particularly valuable. What is the benefit of sharing garbage code from a novice? I’d rather share things worth sharing, that could be useful to someone else.
- Comment on 700+ self-hosted Git instances battered in 0-day attacks 3 months ago:
I do the same thing. Anything I put on there isn’t something that I would share with the Internet anyway. If it was a serious project, sure. It’s just nice to have a personal git you can access over a VPN sometimes.
- Comment on Scheduling is hard 3 months ago:
My disagreement with the show came primary from the premise that we rely more on technology than we do on people(not sure he was trying to make that point but the whole thing about loss of electricity leading to bad anarchy leads me to interpret it that way). However I also believe that with our technology we could be very close to a post scarcity world.
We could feed everyone, house everyone, etc. at our current level of technology. Should we decide we want to increase contentment by giving people more free time we could. It’s because some people value other things that we do it the way we do.

How much work do we actually need to do to maintain our lifestyle? I’d say a lot less than we’re currently doing. Just think about all the waste that goes into Bitcoin. What about insurance, or any number of jobs. Humans create systems (or that’s what I got out of that episode of connections) but those systems are not necessarily efficient at benefiting equally.

- Comment on Bread mold 3 months ago:
So I can’t actually find anything from a quick search that tells me what “bread poisoning” is. Searches show results for both moldy bread as well as ergotism. Just about every source on the Internet tells me that eating a bunch of moldy bread should just give you a bad case of shits or vomits. But if someone is immunocompromised or has gut issues it could be worse.
But if this was ergot poisoning that’s different and doesn’t have much to do with ordinary bread mold.
- Comment on Do you cheat in video games? 3 months ago:
One of the best things in games that aren’t super polished or balanced is figuring out how to exploit the game. It gives you the same kind of feeling you get from getting to the end game in Gothic (or something like that). Getting powerful through your own skill and commitment to the game. Steady progression is good sometimes, but so is feeling progress.
Also yeah sometimes I cheat in single player games
- Comment on Insulin 3 months ago:
If I’m remembering the original sysntesis for insulin used dogs, and it was harvest from them after being killed. It’s unjust that insulin is so expensive, but also modern production methods are not the problem here. It’s greed.
