The last sentence is great, the only thing required for a quarter-mile range lightning turret is a bit of capital and 30ft of capacitors.

You may already know this but Dwayne Johnson is pretty obviously on steroids or some other kind of anabolic agent. In Hollywood anabolics are quite common, since preparing for a role can be a very short term thing, testosterone decreases wi

As always there is a relevant xkcd: https://xkcd.com/1138/ So many geographic statistics just boil down to population density maps instead.

Google has Open-Match[1] for matchmaking where you just have to provide an API that takes a batch of players and returns groups, and it handles the surrounding stuff, also integrates with Agones[2] to automatically provision servers on k8s.

An example of what seems to be a reasonable usecase for UDP proxy is Quilkin[1] from Google. Made for hosting game servers on Kubernetes, and supports session auth, routing, monitoring, and various other features, some of them using prefix

A video I rather enjoyed is this history of EVE Online. 6 hours and almost 4 million views: https://youtu.be/BCSeISYcoyI I find these videos where a person just dedicated months/years to a single subject and condensed

Small note: Zermatt (the town you are probably talking about) is not the only car-free one in Switzerland. There are quite a few others[0], 10 towns in total, according to this website. [0] https://urbanaccessregulations.eu/

The swiss solution does come with per hour pricing but it's still 0.50 CHF / minute. Which is still very expensive for hobbyists. I feel like the marginal costs for users is so low that it would be better if it were handled as a c

I just learned that Switzerland has a nationwide RTK network for cm level positional accuracy using GPS, Galileo, GALILEO, and/or Beidou, GNSS systems. And they have a nice map of all the station locations[0]. It's a bit of shame

If I remember correctly Hack The Box (The CTF Platform) used to require solving a small challenge to even create an account. Though I wouldn't exactly classify it as social media.

One example where I had issues with Mailhog was that the docker images was very bloated 138.8MB[0], there was a PR that should have brought it back to 7MB or something but it was never merged. And not sure about this, but at least for docke

I was researching this because I was wondering how fast you can make LED flicker for lighting effects before it looks like constant brightness. I found most of the information on Wikipedia[0], and the limit seems to be at about 80hz, but to

And 15,90 CHF (18.56 USD) in Switzerland (for one person). Steam and other digital service providers always have really high, or the highest prices in Switzerland.

Sadly the creator shut it down, but Elemental 3 was basically the same premise, but instead of AI for combinations it had user suggestions and ratings. He made a video to visualize some of the final data though: https://youtu.be&

Hard to answer, but I was interested because I assumed it built on the "recent" work to bring rust into the kernel. Where I haven't read much news about how it is being used except for Asahi Linux. Somewhat disappointed that

There is a very nice list of ublock origin filters[0] that removes all shorts from subscriptions, home page, and even the nav menu item for them. Direct links to shorts still work though, in case someone sends a link or something. Improved

Very cool idea, though I just want to mention that in the signup form the TOS and privacy policy links almost have the same color as the background, and also the dark green in the login form clashes with the blue. Might give it a shot some

What is more important for me when using Grafana (though a summary is as well) is actually units, to know if it's second, millisecond, microsecond, and also if 0.5 is a quantile or what. Numbers without units are dangerous in my opinio

Yeah I know, nothing except maybe the JIT that requires java programs to use more memory than Go, but in practice Java apps are almost always significantly worse. C# is also pretty bad, but not quite as bad I think. I can only assume it&#x2

I just never heard of it, I went through reddit and looked at what people were using, and awesome-xyz lists, and then went through docs and pages to see which projects had the same priorities as me. And Authelia looked like the best match.

Authelia actually supports a yaml file with password hashes as the user database. I thought about using that, but decided to try lldap instead. But I wouldn't want to figure out how to write the password hash into the databases of each

Thank you for the help on GitHub with running it as a read only image BTW. Since I try to keep my deployments clean and mostly stateless getting that to work was very nice. The lldap config I use is here if you want it for any examples or s

I tried the Quarkus version, but it does some kind of build step at container startup, and that is what used the most memory. You can apparently build an "optimized" image[1] so it doesn't do it at runtime, but I didn't
