• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What games have mastered "Both emotional extremes"?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Outer Wilds covered a lot of emotions for me. Wonder, excitement, sorrow, fear, relief, anger, frustration, calm, contemplativeness, despair, hope, terror, acceptance.

  It’s my favorite game ever, and the less you know about it when you play it, the better.

  That just gives me a nice sense of pride and accomplishment

  Why not just write your yaml files in JSON syntax?

  JSON is a valid subset of YAML

  Yes, the WD Red line used to be for NAS use, but suddenly they started including SMR drives in their WD Red lineup, people got pissed because SMR isn’t a good fit for RAID setups which NASes usually are.

  WD continued the practice, but introduced the WD Red Pro line. So now regular WD Reds could be either CMR or SMR, but WD Red Pro are guaranteed to be CMR.

  In my opinion it’s still misleading to even brand the regular WD Red line as suitable for NAS use, but at least now you can specifically pick a drive that fits your needs.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What are some games with absolutely fantastic soundtracks?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Outer Wilds - The way this game uses music and ambient sound to foster a sense of wonder, dread, excitement, sorrow, and much more is nothing short of incredible. Probably the best game I have ever played.

  Subnautica - Equally impressive use of music as Outer Wilds, many of the same feelings, but a much much different vibe and genre.

  Return of the Obra Dinn - A grim game where the soundtrack with church bells and heavy string instruments really underscore the mood.

  With the growth of Kubernetes, it’s getting very feasible even for smaller companies to rent their own colocation in a datacenter, shove their own servers into the racks and run the company’s own private cloud.

  We did the math at my current employer, and AWS was roughly 20x as expensive as buying your own servers over a 5 year period, including the datacenter costs. Of course this also means you have to take on more responsibility yourself, like swapping hardware if it breaks, and cabling the rack yourself… But nothing that makes up for the 20x price difference.

  These are great points, but there is something more that phones have going for them.

  All modern phones are full-disk encrypted by default, and can be remote wiped. I think this is only the case for Mac laptops, but not for Linux and Windows.

  So if your phone is stolen, it’s not really a risk of the thief having your password manager and your 2FA at the same time, but rather can they get in to your phone and then password manager and 2FA before you can trigger the remote wipe.

  Unless the attacker is sophisticated enough to mirror the whole disk and attack it offline.

  I too am a bit speechless that two companies get to censor what all stores are allowed to sell.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨This guy predicted the future!🤯⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I think the key word here is “unknowingly”… I don’t think Trump will get us into WWIII “unknowingly”…

  “intentionally” seems like a more fitting word for what Trump is up to.
