Be sure to stick an AR500 plate between your saddle and the mine as well, so you can enjoy a free added speed boost when you flak your enemy without scorching your buttcheeks.

It’ll totally work. I saw it in a cartoon once.

Works on your motorcycle, too.

Posted directly, no. Not anymore, anyway; there was a bright and shiny albeit very short period early in .world’s days when you could upload a video instead of an image and it would take it and work. I imagine the admins disabled this for obvious reasons.

You can still post an animated .gif, though. I do it all the time.

Pro or Enterprise? Or even better, Enterprise IoT LSTC? The latter is going to get security updates until 2032.

And those enrolled ($61) in the Extended Security Updates program get one more year of security support (not feature updates), and the various Enterprise versions will continue to get updates for up to another seven years, depending on the version.

Microsoft didn’t stop updating Windows 10 and they won’t for quite some time. They’re simply no longer offering those updates to most users of the consumer versions of Windows.

Windows Update can also hand you updates to your drivers independent of the support status of your copy of Windows. For instance, if you install a copy of Windows 7 even today it will still pull driver files from Microsoft.

Steam Deck: Already runs Linux.

GabeCube: Confirmed it will run Linux.

Steam Frame: Confirmed it will run Linux.

Obviously Valve has made no overtures whatsoever towards making a phone. But if they did, what on Earth would lead you to believe that it wouldn’t run Linux?

I imagine I’d make a not totally incompetent blacksmith, or some other equivalent allied trade. In fact, I’d probably have a better chance at that 300 or so years ago than now.

Yes, I do already have my own anvil. Jury’s out on whether or not I feel like lugging it with me, though. The fucker is heavy.

And he’ll get it there, too.

The US Postal Service is basically the only part of the federal government that actually works. And still works, amazingly, despite all the politicking and bullshit that’s been thrown at it. My uncle once mailed me a letter but didn’t remember the address of the place I’d recently moved to. He addressed it to, “White house near the corner of [street] and [street] in [town],” with no ZIP code, and it still made it to me. I saved the envelope. I’ve still got it somewhere.

It’s from the Watchmen comic:

0 to 1023 is 1024 possible values, but the highest value you can display is still 1023.

When you count on your fingers in base 10, do you tell people you can “actually” count to 11? Of course not. Only if you, in fact, killed Inigo Montoya’s father.

1023. Otherwise you’d have to stick out your tongue or something for the 1024ths place bit.

I did. Then it showed up on the left.

That one’s 30 seconds. That’s as long as my R10 goes without putting it in its special little “bulb” mode. ISO all the way down to 100, aperture stopped down pretty far, direction chosen based on the last several bolts so of course the next strike happens somewhere else.

This is probably a poster child for an HDR photo: A large disparity between the highs and lows, stationary subjects, and most of it probably beyond the hyperfocal distance.

Poke around in your camera’s settings and you may find the option. It probably has it built in, but in the unlikely even it doesn’t you can still brute force it by exposure bracketing manually (i.e. take a couple of shots of the same thing at bright/medium/dark exposure levels via fiddling with your shutter speed) and smash the resulting photos together on your computer in software, e.g. HDRMerge or similar.

He’s still the meanest son of a bitch of space.

Git is just a cowboy saying get. As in git out, or git gud.

Exciting enough for me to use on a daily basis, and I’m actively following their development progress. Not contributing, mind you. Nobody wants me of all people touching their codebase.

FreeCAD - The open source alternative to various proprietary parametric CAD and solid modelling software such as Solidworks, Fusion360, OnShape, etc. This recently passed its milestone 1.0 release at which point it could finally be considered actually broadly functional for actual real world use. Among various other widgets, I prominently used it to make this and this. Yeah, you guys know how it is.

I consider FreeCAD pretty important coming from the 3D printing hobbyist’s perspective because its the lone bulwark (well, okay, maybe also along with Blender and OpenSCAD) standing firm against the tidal wave of predatory bullshit being peddled by the commercial modelling software options, all of which at this point are genuine full-blown instruments of evil desperately trying to strangle, gatekeep, and paywall humankind’s ability to just make some goddamned shapes to 3D print.

In other news, I complied UZDoom from source the other night because somehow I missed that zdoom.org has precompiled binaries on their site, which I haven’t had to visit in years, but the UZDoom Github page doesn’t. We live and learn. UZDoom is pretty exciting because it’s a continuation of GZDoom with the added feature of kicking its insane former lead developer off of the project, or rather forking it out from under him. And everybody loves to play Doom.

Imagine my surprise and amusement to discover that https://www.realultimatepower.net/ is still online.

Well, I do I have tucked into a random bookshelf one of those “World Atlas” book safes that everyone already knows is a storage box and not a book, because they’ve been sold virtually unchanged as far as I can tell since at least the early 1990s. As a little treat to anyone observant who notices this and thinks they’re so damn clever, inside I have nothing but a scaled down 3D printed replica of a cinder block.

It is astoundingly unlikely anyone will find where my valuables are actually hidden in my house, nor am I going to admit it on the internet.
