> once you got to the angles where walls joins, you would be able to zip along the intersections at great speed in ways that defy conventional physics. Hyperspace lanes!

If you are in the US, you probably already know about Mike Patey but I'll share this here anyway. He has a track record of building something custom pretty much every year. I belie…

I was curious, so I just checked on one of our customers (I work at a small MSP in the UK) by way of comparison and we have on chugging along happily at more than double those numb…

And you have Cunninghammed me :-) Some Nalgene's are polycarbonate, like those commonly drunk from. But not all, some are HDPE[0,1,2]. Some are Polypropylene co-polymer[3] but thos…

Maybe not so weird if gravity isn't the curvature of spacetime but a symptom of there being either more or less of it, and mass creates spacetime. Replace the highly curved spaceti…

There are many variables. Visual acuity, how well your eyes can adapt to low light, colour sensitivity, light pollution and cloud cover are just a few. Even standing next to each o…

I very much enjoy the diplomatic phrasing of this statement :-)

Migrating to a host that doesn’t support IPv6 when it’s important to you seems…like a bad decision.

This seems like the perfect opportunity to introduce those unfamiliar to Robert Elder. He makes cool YouTube[0] and blog content[1] and has a series on regular expressions[2] and d…

It’s a shame this study appears to have been conducted so poorly, the topic is very interesting. The study had people click on photos of where their interest would be if they were …

Former military here…I only ever did this a few times in very specific circumstances. I wasn’t infantry but when exercising that role I did do this a couple of times when on sentry…

The GP might be referring to how most of the non-hyperscalers like Linode or DigitalOcean or Vultr tie total monthly egress to instance size. IIRC they do allow overage charges at …

They are, at least on my car and many other here in Europe. Brake past a certain threshold of deceleration, and the brakes lights flash rapidly, indicating to motorists behind that…

This is utterly false for Amazon UK and disprovable by 2 minutes of searching. It’s somewhat incredible to me this claim has been made with a straight face to be honest. USB Foot P…

Yes I thought this too. Perhaps because it mirrored my experience of similar situations. I glad to see a comment like yours because it could mean we’re starting to recognise this c…

She doesn’t have a car or license. So living in the countryside in the UK is a non-starter. When you’re living life on hard mode already due to poverty and the pernicious destructi…

The next sentence is: > Choosing to use the powers vested in you by the constituencies you serve, to deprive those same constituents of light, heating, food and home security is a …

DigitalOcean blocks port 25 now anyway[0], since I think June this year, for all new accounts. So not really a viable option now. We have to relay email from our servers there. Bit…

This opinion comes from a former pho photographer, one who desperately wanted to love Darktable...the shots are warranted in my opinion. Darktable is a complete car crash of poor u…

EMF Camp[0] in the UK last year had a talk about this[1]. I attended in person. It was a fascinating intro to something I didn’t really understand existed. EMF camp is something of…

I'm curious if there's another company in history that became so pervasive so quickly? Not just in terms of size, but in impact/reach? I realise this question somewhat requires def…
