This comment is just a lazy attempt at changing minds. Why don’t you get off your ass and actually institute real change in the world? We’re all waiting. This is your responsibility after all, according to me. From here on out, all unresolved problems are the fault of lynx97 being a lazy slackass. So says me, with the power of a random internet person assigning responsibilities. Consider yourself confronted. I’ll await your excuses.

My guess would be that this has more to do with disk speed if your download speeds are decent. Especially if it’s wired to the internet rather than WiFi. It’s always easy to spot the console user in cross-platform lobbies because of the loading times.

I’ve been innovating on bookmarks for decades. Money, receipts, paint swatches, entire spiral notebooks, ripped off corners of magazines… bookmarks are everywhere!

Aren’t those all industries that are now highly regulated because they proved themselves to be untrustworthy?

Oh shit I missed my water break. Thanks for the reminder friend.

There’s a surprising amount of negativity in here. Matrix is great for me. I’m happy to see the improvements. I’m also happy to hear the team is approaching sustainability. Matrix isn’t perfect but it has only improved in the 5 years I’ve been using it. I’m looking forward to what they can do in another 5 years.

Audiobookshelf has become a key service in my self hosted stack. I use it primarily for podcast management and it’s been wonderful. I use plappa on iOS as my client and the offline support is stellar. I’m building a FreeBSD port for it too so it can have a forever home on my stable server.

This was a thoughtful comment but I’m not sure how useful it is at all due to the typo. Commendable vs commandable? I have a pet peeve for typos so your highly accomplished comment is really unworthy of the photons used to display it.

Or maybe we can be more supportive of each other and our accomplishments.

The mind-body connection is quite real. Improving your physical state will almost certainly have a non-zero improvement on your mental state. Exercising can really help you make sense of all those other things you have going on. Not to mention that being in shape and strong makes every physical thing you do easier.

The visudo command is often times available as well. It won’t let you save a malformed sudoers file. Finding other footguns though is an exercise for the reader.

I just ran a test and I was able to do just as many flip resets in Hacker League as I was in Rocket League.

In the time it took me to learn a new programming language, my kid learned how to be a whole entire human being. Including free thought and autocorrect mode. I don’t know what makes us special in the animal kingdom, but watching that happen certainly feels special. Do whales feel the same way about their young?

FWIW I had to undo B) just yesterday. I thought the same thing about resolving records in order but it does not. I didn’t dive too far in, but my proxy server would occasionally query my router instead of the pihole for DNS requests. Maybe I just did it wrong :)

For the record I was assigning these DNS server IPs via docker compose. So perhaps that makes a difference.

Epic took away player to player trading in rocket league just to support a new game mode in Fortnite (rocket racing). Now the only way to get items is through the item shop using real money. Have a dozen copies of the same item because you’ve been playing since 2015 and want to gift it to somebody? Too bad, not possible. Rocket League is dying, but hey at least rocket racing in Fortnite has familiar assets!

We would back up double-digit GB MySQL databases by piping mysqldump into gzip as well. Like you I’m sure there’s a size limit where that doesn’t work. I never found out if it was CPU or memory constrained though.
