VVVVVV is very simple game but exceptionally well made. Tight controls coupled with interesting level layouts made it both a puzzle to solve (how to do a section) and then required dexterity to execute it. And music in this game is top tier

I think they probably got a batch of these really cheap in the first place, because those servers were offered without the setup fee initially. It was during the soccer World Cup in Germany.

Do Hetzner servers even run IPMI? For dedicated servers, you have to schedule KVM access in advance, so I assume they need to move some hardware and plug into to your server. This would mean that IPMI is most likely not available or disable

I have two AX42's. One has been stable since I got it during the Eurocup discount period. The other got replaced 2 times so far, but it looks like the latest replacement is holding up. So, it's like 50% failure rate based on my sm

Looks like AI is becoming a perfect excuse to do whatever you like. It's like having a dangerous dog that usually doesn't bite, but you really cannot know if it will change its mind one day. Do you just let such dog walk the stree

Agreed. Promising stuff like "Hey we built this because everything else is bad" and then years later selling it to a company that turns it bad is somehow even worse than classic bait and switch.

Vultr has hard limits by default. Hetzner also for CPU use, and last time I checked the traffic would drop to slower bandwidth if you pass some limit. I think they still charge you, though.

IIRC the main selling point of Luau is that you get decent sandboxing by default.

Recently I got free 30 minute trial access to GPT4 (and was prompted to upgrade if I liked it). I used the opportunity to send some queries which GPT-3.5 was bad at, and while GPT4 was better and closer to the correct answers, it still fail

Exactly. Per discussion in the link, the safe versions are 5.2.x and earlier. So, Debian 11 (oldstable) is not affected as it runs 5.2.5, but Debian 12 (stable) could have some other backdoor from the same author.

I guess it depends on your use case. If you rent a bunch of bare-metal servers at a remote location and you want restarts after updates to be fully automated, Clevis seems like a way to do. The whole idea is that once you cancel the server,

Looks useful for gradients. Strange that nobody mentions Paletton. It's my go to tool when picking colors: https://paletton.com/ You start with the base, and then also get gradients to adjacent colors in the palette. E

I wonder if some system akin to Clevis + Tang would solve this?

Yes. And it teaches the consumers that there's no point in waiting. When you want their game, you just buy it at full price on launch date, because you know that waiting for discount would take years and even then it would be 20-30% of
