I finally bit the bullet on building a 5.1 home theatre system this year, and deliberately made the choice of keeping it as dumb as possible.
I went with;
* Denon AVR-X1800H
* Q Acoustics 5000 family (5020s surrounds, 5050s fronts, & 5090 centre)
* RSL Speedwoofer 12S
Now movies, music & games sound great, subtitles are no longer needed, and I don't have to worry about a single app! Just the windows shattering from the massive subwoofer

I... can't say I experienced any of these issues. I also had no idea there was a browser demo. Just opened it up and opened a zip with no issues. Are you using some obscure OS & experimental browser combo?

I finally dipped into using ImHex when doing some reversing of the PS2 memory card format for https://ps2iodb.com.
The program is so good, and has enough of a reputation that I knew to reach for it even though I know nothing about reversing, and that was 3-4 years ago now! Also shoutout to the awesome GUI library is uses; https://github.com/ocornut/imgui

My recommendation to everyone out there willing to put in the effort of writing an article; don't put a naff low effort AI generated image at the top of it (or anywhere in it..). It turns me off before I've even read the first word.

My Tailscale was broken for the past month and I only just fixed it yesterday, and today this patch is released that would have made it a non-issue.
Updating my BIOS caused the issue. The main problem was that Tailscale's behaviour was very poor in this case. It simply got stuck "Starting" and never provided any error information.

The percentages should be counting upwards for the departments that are currently operational, instead they are currently static :)

They're all hosted via on the Internet Archive and embedded into the page, I couldn't really put all the images inside my Git repository my blog is hosted from, and wanted permanent hosting. If it's slow I can't help that unfortunately sorry.

Hi everyone. Today I finished my latest project which was archving 1584 photos (+2 videos) of LAN parties in Tasmania ranging from 1996 to 2010.
Previously these photos were lost to time until I got in contact with the right people.
Looking through the photos is a great blast of nostalgia, I hope you get some enjoyment from looking through them too!

Reminds me of this old website I used to stare at for long periods, found it very relaxing: "Listen to Wikipedia" http://listen.hatnote.com/

Can't find any source links on the site. Would love to see this made open source!

Valorant (game using kernel anti-cheat) is made by Riot Games, which is owned by Tencent (since 2011) a Chinese company with heavy ties to the Chinese Communist Party.
[1] "According to a report by Sina Tech in October 2017, Tencent employed over 7,000 members of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) ... "With over 7,000 CCP members, accounting for approximately 23% of the total workforce, and more than 60% of whom are core technical personnel, the number of CCP members at Tencent is increasing by nearly a thousand every year." [2] "The Tencent Party Member Activity Center has a dedicated CCP member activity area of more than 6,000 square meters. More than 1 million yuan is allocated for CCP activities per year."
As someone who plays games every day, with ~3000 hours in Counter Strike at a decently high level. I've only ever encountered blatant hackers maybe 3 times in the last 10 years. I definitely do not care enough to start allowing random companies Kernel level access to my machine.
