A half decent NAS, with Dockerised *rr is the gold standard of torrenting. I never knew it could be so painless.

Adoption on desktop is 100% more related to Steam support, at least in the gaming segment.

Anecdotally, among friends and colleagues, people are only staying with Windows for gaming support.

People generally dislike Windows but are forced to stay their for gaming. As support for Linux improves, they'll be less willing to put up with Windows' BS.

The VTTES plugin for Firefox/Chrome allows for importing/exporting between OrcPub/DungeonMastersVault, Foundry, and roll20 formats.

Worth checking out if you could support one of those as an import target.

You cannot have a labor union and still be a successful company. Unions are cancer.

Hard disagree.

If the government knows somebody is a danger to children, they can't just have kids. In the UK at least, they'll be taken into state social care.

Because people caught on that it's a terrible idea with terrible (unstated) goals.

That's pretty much what's been happening for the last decade. I turned off search history an age ago and I've had a slightly tailored (based on subscriptions) but mostly generic home page since them.

It's not a cas where they can't. They decide on this course of action.

On a related note, they already show an (almost) totally generic feed for Shorts. If you turn search history off, you see a lot of Andrew Tate, anti-trans, and "masculinity is under attack" messaging. It's disgusting to think that's what Google are showing to new sign users.

To be clear, the copyright strike is for a small two second animation in the middle of a much larger video.

The correct course of action here is for Mr Beast to apologize to the animation owner (AO) and to reupload the video with the animation removed. Or, to license the animation.

YouTube should then lift demonization.

AO didn't suffer any damage so there's no compensation owed. Legally, AO might be able to chase this but the payout will likely be far less than the court costs.

Mr Beast seems to be a pretty upstanding guy, so I wouldn't be surprised if he licensed the animation for a generous price.

Ultimately, it was the editor who messed up so the Mr Beast team need to review their processes.

Most videos like this make the majority of their money in the first few days. If they get demonetized, they're effectively dead. Considering the huge costs involved, that's pretty bad.

I'm not 100% sure the problem you're trying to solve, but I've solved a similar sounding one that may be of use to you too.

We needed to set env vars on React applications (the frontend) inside Docker containers. The containers were going to be built in CI/CD, and we didn't want different builds for each environment.

We solved this by adding a small JS script that is included in the base HTML. It pushes env vars into the window object, so they're accessible from window.env.

The JS file is generated by a Bash script that's ran whenever the container starts (by modifying the entry-point.sh file used by Nginx's Docker image).

The Bash script loads enumerates any environment variable with a given prefix.

Docker already allows you to set runtime environment variables from the run command, or via Docker Compose.

Im the end, the developer experience comes down to "docker run image:tag -e PREFIX_FOO=BAR".

I think the benefits vastly outweigh the costs here. There's a lot of things that hinder people with reduced mobility much more.

Only if the URL links to a specific tweet. The feed, and users' post history requires a login.

Imagine asking for 50% Allied / 50% Axis news.

A number of local councils in the UK do for realtime news.

Sounds like they chose not to apply the policy to you. What would have stopped them, if tiit was something you wanted.

INWX AG are based in Switzerland and Germany, and offer MFA.

(They call it "Mobile TAN" which is the phrase often used in german to describe SMS-based MFA but has slowly expanded to also describe U2F/Fido/etc.)

Swiss companies have a history of telling the US gov to pound dust. There's a list of Swiss based registrars (that provide .ch domains) maintained by the .ch NIC:

https://www.nic.ch/registrars

A prepaid credit card, or virtual card (like those provided by Wise) would do the trick.

Unless AWS doesn't allow those.

There's a lot of trains in Switzerland so there's a lot of apartments by tracks. For the most part, the apartments are just built well.

Plus, the trains and tracks are very well maintained, so they create a lot less noise than you may be used to.

Why would the US part ha e all of the talent? Are/were Activision's development teams based solely in the US? I thought they had devs elsewhere too.

Might make sense if their EU/UK offices were mostly admin.

You clearly value different things to them, and that's okay.

To you, a big car or house may be a sign of success. To them, it might not be. Not everyone values material things the same.

It's clearly a considered decision. It's not stupid by any means, if this is what they want.

We should introduce an industry best practice for account management. A "/.well-known" url for changing passwords would make this trivial to do in bulk with a password manager.

Proton's encryption is just PGP, so it works with any other provider out of the box.

I prefer that over proprietary solutions.

I think you can get tutanota to interop with Proton if you use Proton's relay.

And ship a commonjs version as well, if you need to support older node versions. It's trivial.

Whilst I can agree that overspending is an issue, I don't believe the cost of the "fancy" architecture is a major contributor to the costs. What's more, it's nice to have some beautiful public works. Obviously, we want punlic infrastructure that works well, but beyond that, it should be a joy to use.

Honestly, give it a go. There's a few (a dozen or so) stylistic choices to make but it's mostly the same and standards are shared across the community far more than HTML+CSS / Angular .NET in my experience.

Awesome concept but unfortunately the worst input field I've ever seen! It's a nightmare on mobile. Will have to try on desktop later.

That's a required security feature in the UK.

Also, any gas appliance with non-functioning security features canmot be reconnected to the gas mains.

There's plenty of people willing to risk it but forcing the service people to follow rules cuts the risk.

Plus one for QWIIC. Choosing an ecosystem that's easy to buy (not always sold out) and cheap can make a big difference.

Honestly, finding a brick-and-mortar store is getting harder these days. You might be lucky in a big city but I personally don't know anywhere with a good ramge and comparable pricing to online. Prices for microcontrollers is really good online.
