Ehhh. React of course! Well, for me anyway.

I think you may be miss-remembering.

Thats absolutly mind blowing!!

I dont know, but you made me remember PP Hammer. If you left the character for a while he would stand there and start smoking. oh, how times have changed!

This is a rewrite from scratch of the Turrican 2 PC-DOS version for AGA Amigas. 24bit/256 colours, original music/sounds. All levels plus various things that were missing in the DOS version have been reinstated (missing parallax, animations, waterfall effects, etc.)

Im currently thinking of purchasing a Synology NAS that comes with BTRFS. Just wondering, do you happen to know if BTRFS also requires ECC RAM to function correctly?

Ahh gotcha.. Thanks for the info. Thats useful to know.

Can you tell me what the difference is between your DEV and SANDBOX environemnts is? Curious to know.

C# is my daily driver. But If I had the opportunity to code in one of your languages I would pick Rust. I think its the future. But to your question of maximum financial payoff, surely there are 10X more C++ jobs out there at the ioment than Rust or Go due to the age of the language. I know C++ is long in the tooth but it isnt going anywhere and you can still land some high paying jobs if you have it as a skill.

lucky sonnofa...

Oh thats piqued my interest. Just out of interest what type of work have you been doing? Are the fantastic day rates in WebDev, Backend or Database work and could you give me a rough figure for the day rates? Also what language are you using and how long have you been in the contracting world? Sorry for all the questions.

Maybe a low-tech solution but I was just wondering if you could have a 2nd server in the same room/datacentre connected to one of those timer plugs. The timer plugs turn the server on at say 2am every day. On bootup, it connects to the main server and copies the latest backups to itself. Once done it shuts itself down. This way, the server is only up for a small window each day minimising the security risk. This idea has just come to me, so have not actually done this myself, but thought it post it anyway!
