The first thought I had was this same scenario but all grown up. Imagine two fully grown 700 lb bovines crammed in your kitchen staring down your dishes lol theyre all cute until they become living flesh tanks then they’re still cute but hella bulky and slightly intimidating

SmokeyDope@lemmy.worldto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•[SOLVED] ELI5: How to put several servers on one external IP?English3·21 天前Good to hear you figured it out with router settings. I’m also new to this but got all that figured out this week. As other commenters say I went with a reverse proxy and configured it. I choose caddy over nginx for easy of install and config. I documented just about every step of the process. I’m a little scared to share my website on public fourms just yet but PM me ill send you a link if you want to see my infrastructure page where I share the steps and config files.
Ding Ding, check this comment chain for your answer. Today you, tomorrow me.
Question one: yes and no. Most of the vomiting emojis shared here in comments are fake made using googles emoji kitchen thing. But there are many real modifiers for emojis like skin color or adding accents like tildes to regular english alphabet characters.
Question two: Modern keyboards typically have most emojis built in for you to select through. I dont think typing in the unicode values will automatically convert on phone operating systems but this might help if using windows or programming into a website.
the XKCD explained article on this actually gave some really great info.
SmokeyDope@lemmy.worldOPto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Got any security advice for setting up a locally hosted website/external service?English5·1 个月前Thanks for the input! I do eventually plan on making some scripts and a custom web interface to interact with/expose some local services on my network once I have the basics of HTML covered as part of a portfolio thing so would like to cover my ass early and not have problems later
I prefer 293.15 K for sleeping but to each their own.
SmokeyDope@lemmy.worldto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Plex now want to SELL your personal dataEnglish32·1 个月前From what Ive seen in arguments about this, Plex generally is more accessible with QoL and easier to understand interface for non-techie people to share with family/friends. Something thats hard for nerdy people to understand is that average people are perfectly fine paying for digital goods and services. An older well off normie has far more money than sense and will happily pay premiums just to not have to rub two braincells together with setup or for a nicer quality of experience. If you figure out how to make a very useful plug-an-play service that works without the end user of average intelligence/domain knowledge stressing about how to set up, maintain, and navigate confusing layouts, you’ve created digital gold.
This isn’t the fault of open source services you can only expect so much polish from non-profit voulenteer. Its just the nature of consumer laziness/expectation for professional product standards and the path/product of least resistance.
The people who voulenteer in the irc chats of the Linux mint help I talked with were so chill and helpful
SmokeyDope@lemmy.worldto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•I'm guilty of not reading the f..ing documentationEnglish19·2 个月前I volunteer as developer for a decade old open source project. A sizable amount of my contribution is just cooking up decent documentation or re-writting old doc from the original module authors written close to a decade ago because it failed me information wise when I needed it. Programmers as it turns out are very ‘eh, the code should explain itself to anyone with enough brains to look at it’ type of people so lost in the sauce of being hyperfluent tech nerds instantly understanding all variables, functions, parameters, and syntax at very first glance at source code, that they forgot the need for re-translation into regular human speak for people of varying intelligence/skill levels who can barely navigate the command line.
The real answer is that the techie nerds willing to learn git and contribute to open source projects are likely to be hobbyist programmers cutting their teeth on bugfixes/minor feature enhancements and not professional programmer-designers with an eye for UI and the ability to make it/talk with those who can. Also in open source projects its expected that the contributor be able to pull their own weight with getting shit done so you need to both know how to write your own code and learn how to work with specific UI formspecs. Delegating to other people is frowned upon because its all free voulenteer work so whatever you delegate ends up eating up someone elses free time and energy fixing up your pr.
SmokeyDope@lemmy.worldto Explain Like I'm Five@lemmy.world•What are the privacy concerns for using Discord?English7·2 个月前You can use discord in your web browser with some privacy addons like fingerprint and user gent spoofing to help restrict how much gets leaked to discord. If you install it as an app that runs in background you better believe they’re collecting more data and metrics.
SmokeyDope@lemmy.worldto xkcd@lemmy.world•xkcd #3084: Unstoppable Force and Immovable ObjectEnglish10·2 个月前There are some pretty close physical analogs that are fun to think about. You cant move a black hole by exerting physical force on it in the normal way so practically infinite gravity wells are like a immovable “object”, though if you’re sufficently nerdy enough you can cook some fun ways to harness its gravitational rotation into a kind of engine, or throw another black hole at it to create a big explosion and some gravitational waves which are like a kind of unstoppable force moving at the speed of light.
SmokeyDope@lemmy.worldOPto You Should Know@lemmy.world•YSK theres a open source tool to cleanly read webpage articles called 'NewsWaffle'English2·2 个月前True! Most browsers don’t have native gemini protocol support. However a web proxy like the ones I shared allow you to get gemini support no matter the web browser. Gemtext is a simplified version of markdown which means its not too hard to convert from gemtext to html/webpage. So, by scraping information from bloated websites, formatting it into the simple gemtext format markdown, then mirroring it back as a simple web/html page, it works together nicely to re-render bloated sites on simple devices using gemini as a formatting medium technology. You don’t really need to understand gemini protocol to use newswaffle + portal.mozz.us proxy in your regular web browser
during the time I was born TVs were small square boxes powered by glass tubes and turny knobs. I want to say 480p but tbh if you were using a junky 10 inch display at the turn of the century on satallite it was closer to like 240p. The jump from square 480p to widescreen 720/1080 was an actual graphical revolution for most people in a very big way, especially for watching movies that were shot in wide. In terms of games 1080p is both where 16:9 took off and the point where realistic looking graphics meet acceptable resolution for like skin pours and godrays shit like that. GTA5, TLOU and RDR are the examples that come to mind from the AAA 1080p era and their original states still probably hold up today.
When the 4k stuff finally came around and it was advertised as the next revolution I was excited man. However compared to going from 480 to 1080 it wasn’t a huge change tbh. It seems once you’re already rendering skin detail and individual blades of grass, or simulating atmospheric condition godrays, there isn’t much more that can be drastically improved just by throwing a billion more polygons at a mesh and upscaling textures. The compute power and storage space required to get these minimal detail gains also starts escalating hard. Its such bullshit that modern AAA games are like 80gb minimum with half of that probably being 4k textures.
I will say that im like the opposite of a graphics snob and slightly proud of it so my opinions on 4k and stuff are biased. Im happy with 1080p as a compromise between graphical quality and compute/disk space required. Ive never played a 1080p at maximum graphics and wanted for more. Im not a competitive esports player, im not a rich tech bro who can but the newest upgraded gpu and 500tb of storage. I don’t need my games to look hyperrealistic. I play games for the fun gameplay and the novel experiences they provide. Some of the best games I’ve ever played look like shit and can be played on a potato. Most of the games I found boring were AAA beautiful open worlds that were as wide and pretty as an ocean but gameplay wise it was as deep as a dried up puddle. I hopped off the graphics train a very long time ago, so take my cloud yelling with a grain of salt.
I have no issue with remakes themselves. Games are a kind of art, and good art should be kept alive for the next generations to enjoy. The problem to me is:
-
the only thing big studios now want to put out remakes/remasters of the backlog they already made because its a safe and easy cash grab. One of the top comments about there being 7 skyrims and 2 oblivions before ES6 is soo real man. Its like all the people who founded the companies who were responsible for creative novel design/story that gave big titles their soul in the 2000s no longer exist in the industry except a few indie devs. Now all big game companies are just run by business associates without a shred of humanity outsourcing everything for a quick buck.

Graphics have plateud from late 2010s and onward. Remastered and remaked stuff made a lot more since for the ps2/xbox and backwards, with the ps3/x360 1080p resolution it made a little less sense but I could still understand them porting like TLOU to ps4 at 4k or whatever. But now were remastering games that came out 5 years ago at 4k and trying to sell it as some huge graphical overhaul worth the asking price. Maybe im insane or old but my eyes can barely tell the difference between 1080p and 4k, going from 4k to 8k is like the same picture with slightly different shaders.

SmokeyDope@lemmy.worldto Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•My ravioli bowl won't unstick. Took about an hour of prying, and still I couldn't unstick the plate.English132·3 个月前Assuming its empty, i would take the grog oggah boogah solution of smash the blue plastic bowl down the edge of your countertop. Something will give sometime.
Otherwise, did you try twisting the bowl one direction and the plate the other? Torque is typically a more effective force than pulling for friction.
SmokeyDope@lemmy.worldOPto linuxmemes@lemmy.world•Better watch out when those windows-fanboy silicon lifeforms start talking shit on my favorite operating system family.English102·3 个月前This meme was originally made for the [email protected] community in an attempt to give a super niche manga artist fan place a little bit of engagement, I crossposted it here as an afterthought didn’t expect go be brigaded so hard by armchair memologist over the objective definition and location of the funny.
You’re absolutely correct that you need to have read the Blame! manga to get the reference on this one to really enjoy, even if you did its not that deep. Not too much thought went into it I was high as shit just pasting icons with the ‘linux chad big energy beam, windows/microsoft wojak bad guys its fired at’. Im personally okay with not every one of my memes being super accessible or community bangers I had fun making this and putting the template together. If you get the humor or like the template great. If you don’t, oh well downvote say ‘where funny’ and move on with your life cause im not wasting my time explaining what a graviational beam emitter is to snobs who don’t care in the first place.
The point in time after the first qbit based supercomputers transitioned from theoretical abstraction to physical proven reality. Thus opening up the can-of-worms of feasabily cracking classical cryptographic encryptions like an egg within human acceptable time frames instead of longer-than-the-universes-lifespan timeframes… Thanks, superposition probability based parallel computations.
