NixOS gang, you here?

No? Guess I’m here alone. Meme checks out.

NodeCore is another great Minetest game. I haven’t been able to find a game that matches the feeling of discovery it provides as you learn about the rules of the world.

This isn’t really a Windows vs Linux issue as far as I’m aware. It was a bad driver update made by a third party. I don’t see why Linux couldn’t suffer from the same kind of issue.

We should dunk on Windows for Windows specific flaws. Like how Windows won’t let me reinstall a corrupted Windows Store library file because admins can’t be trusted to manage Microsoft components on their own machine.

.localhost is already reserved for the loopback, per RFC 2606, but I agree with you in general. A small network shouldn’t have to have a $10-15/year fee to be compliant if they don’t want to use a domain outside their network.

As other posters have mentioned, .lan .home .corp and such are so widely used that ICANN can’t even sell them without causing a technical nightmare.

Yes, you’re right, RFC 6762 proposes reserving .local for mDNS. I was not aware of this until you brought it up, hence the dangers of using using TLDs not specifically designated for internal use.

Very few as this ruling would reserve .internal for local DNS only and forbid it at the global level. This is ICANN’s solution to people picking random .lan .local .internal for internal uses. You’ll be able to safely use .internal and it will never resolve to an address outside your network.

Bed adhesion, nozzle clogging, inconsistent extrusion. It was always some issue and it was difficult to figure out the root cause. I kept buying better parts to try and fix things but at some point I decided to cut my losses. Truthfully I don’t know if it was my fault or the printer’s.

It’s comforting to know I’m not alone. My Ender3 was a money sink that just kept getting worse. I have no idea why they’re praised so commonly.

It does exist, see qbitorrent and similar apps. Torrents already fill the usecase you’ve defined: decentralized sharing of arbitrary files. The main problems being the central exchange and the need for seeders.

The bigger the central exchange (torrent tracker) the more susceptible you are to both internal and external threats, but you need to be big because bigger means more seeders and more content.

I expected this to be a satirical article for pumped hydro.

Yeah, that’s why they want change.

If you’re wondering like I was:

King - Mario and Bowser

Queen - Luigi and Bowser Jr.

Bishops - Peach/Daisy and Magikoopas

Knights - Yoshis and Birdos

Rooks - Toads and Goombas

Pawns - Coins and Koopa Shells

I feel like toads and goombas should have been pawns. Thwomp is the perfect rook. I can’t think of a suitable replacement for the Mushroom Kingdom’s rook other than stylizing it like Peach’s castle.

I’m glad I’m not the only person to immediately think of the Joywire from RimWorld.

It’s funny, because two male electrical plugs will still pass electricity fine if you put them together.
