I was gifted a Swiss Gear backpack when I went off to school (over fifteen years ago now). It was good – albeit very heavy – for the first two or three years. Then the soft surfaces started wearing through, the mesh water bottle pocket on t

For all of these newfangled TLDs that are springing out of the woodwork with strictly for-profit interests, yes. Even some ccTLDs have seen rapid price hikes in recent years. I think the safest bet is to pre-renew the domains you really wan

Resolution isn't the only problem. SD resolution (particularly PAL) is quite tolerable, if it's well-encoded from a good source. DVDs are not well-encoded, and the sources are typically poorer, too. DVDs store MPEG-2 Part 2 (H.262

Still using my RX 5700 XT. The amdgpu driver had a major issue resuming from suspend a few months ago[0], but other than that, I'm not aware of (nor have I experienced) any stability issues. Maybe you had a bad card. 0: https:/&#

Oh, sorry, I didn't recognize that this had been posted by a SolveSpace maintainer! Rad. I am glad to hear the project is still moving. I also appreciate the difficulty of generalizing chamfers/fillets. There's a reason that

SolveSpace is a wonderfully different take on parametric CAD, but development has really slowed, and it seems fundamentally incapable of some pretty rudimentary features (like chamfers[0]). Dune 3D[1] seems like a pretty effective spiritual

In 2006, Ars Technica published an April Fool's article[0] declaring that the perennially-forthcoming Duke Nukem Forever would finally see the light of day... as... a browser game ! Ho ho, how droll. Crazy to see how far we've co

When I read the book as a teenager, I was awed by the technical achievement of the team. When I re-read the book ten or fifteen years later as an adult facing burnout, I was awed again – by the human cost of the project. Grim stuff. Fantast

The documentation addresses that[0]. Basically, Dune 3D uses solvespace's solver, but it can do fillets and chamfers, and has a slightly more approachable user interface. 0: https://docs.dune3d.org/en/latest/w

Wow, cool – IMO, the galleries are so much easier to browse now. I'm not sure if selling prints is a priority for you, but it would be rad if you could do on-demand prints. In the meantime, I'll e-mail you about a couple :)

I wish I had a better sense of how these zero-click vulnerabilities work so I could get a sense of how to protect myself from them (you know, without giving in to Liquid Glass). Can they be blocked by an ad blocker? Are they blocked by

I think https://gitlab.collabora.com/hardware-enablement/rockchip-35... is still the best reference for mainline support of the RK3588. As you say, DP alt mode and video encoding are totally unsupported right now. Hope

Several years ago in the UK, giffgaff had a similar plan (throttled to 384 kbps after 80 GB throughput) which they called “always on”. I thought that was a good linguistic compromise.

Just like you used to be able to provide storage drivers on a floppy disk, you can now provide NIC drivers on a USB stick. (IIRC, there's a button for it on the Microsoft account sign-in page of the OOBE.)

Ah, thank you for pointing these out! I'd missed the introduction of “flex” instance types (apparently in May last year[0] – still long overdue relative to the introduction of T4g in September 2020[1]). Curious that so far, they all ap

Not really: burstable (“t”) instances haven't been updated in years. The current generation (“t4g”) still use Graviton2 processors. I get the impression that they would vastly prefer cost-conscious users to use spot instances.
