Outer Wilds covered a lot of emotions for me. Wonder, excitement, sorrow, fear, relief, anger, frustration, calm, contemplativeness, despair, hope, terror, acceptance.

It’s my favorite game ever, and the less you know about it when you play it, the better.

They were briefly, but that was reversed on 2024-08-01

That just gives me a nice sense of pride and accomplishment

Why not just write your YAML files in JSON syntax?

JSON is a valid subset of YAML

Yes, the WD Red line used to be for NAS use, but suddenly they started including SMR drives in their WD Red lineup, people got pissed because SMR isn’t a good fit for RAID setups which NASes usually are.

WD continued the practice, but introduced the WD Red Pro line. So now regular WD Reds could be either CMR or SMR, but WD Red Pro are guaranteed to be CMR.

In my opinion it’s still misleading to even brand the regular WD Red line as suitable for NAS use, but at least now you can specifically pick a drive that fits your needs.

This ain’t AI… This is the haphazardly thrown together product photos you see on amazon, which just plasters a few stock photos together with the product.

With the growth of Kubernetes, it’s getting very feasible even for smaller companies to rent their own colocation in a datacenter, shove their own servers into the racks and run the company’s own private cloud.

We did the math at my current employer, and AWS was roughly 20x as expensive as buying your own servers over a 5 year period, including the datacenter costs. Of course this also means you have to take on more responsibility yourself, like swapping hardware if it breaks, and cabling the rack yourself… But nothing that makes up for the 20x price difference.

While “MØ” is her initials, it’s actually also a word in Danish for “Maiden”. It’s an old word, not used commonly.

The Google Translate text-to-speak is fairly accurate: https://translate.google.com/?sl=da&tl=en&text=Mø&op=translate

Ørsted is also pronounced fairly accurately: https://translate.google.com/?sl=da&tl=en&text=Ørsted&op=translate

Accurate

“Møl” is the Danish word for “Moth”, the Google Translate text-to-speech pronunciation is pretty good:

“Øh” is actually how we spell and pronounce the Danish equivalent of “uh” or “uhm”.

These are great points, but there is something more that phones have going for them.

All modern phones are full-disk encrypted by default, and can be remote wiped. I think this is only the case for Mac laptops, but not for Linux and Windows.

So if your phone is stolen, it’s not really a risk of the thief having your password manager and your 2FA at the same time, but rather can they get in to your phone and then password manager and 2FA before you can trigger the remote wipe.

Unless the attacker is sophisticated enough to mirror the whole disk and attack it offline.

I too am a bit speechless that two companies get to censor what all stores are allowed to sell.

Sweden and Denmark (and probably the rest of Scandinavia) has Kex which is somewhat similar

Damn… The more I hear about stuff like this the more I like the Danish police and traffic laws… They certainly aren’t perfect, but man is most of the rest of the world a shit show when it comes to that.

In Denmark 3 km/h above the limit can get you a ticket. 30% above will get you a “point” to your drivers license and a much larger fine. 60% above and you will immediately lose your license and a large fine or potentially prison.

A “point” stays on your license for 3 years, and it you get 6 cuts, you lose your license.

I haven’t heard of anyone keeping their license “because they needed it”… You just have to bike, or take public transport.

You also get a point for many other offenses, such as using a handheld phone, crossing on red, tailgating, driving the wrong way, or many other things.

The first 3 years after getting your license, the limit is lower at 4 points, and if you lose your license and get a new license the limit is only 3 points.

Oh yes… I’ve printed a bunch of train track parts that doesn’t exist otherwise…
