Luke waking up and then telling his son Ben Skywalker that he had a terrible dream that didn’t make any sense.

I can’t even enjoy the good stuff like Andor because it’s part of the same cursed Disney timeline. If they scrapped the sequel trilogy I might be persuaded to come back.

They already did that. I think it was Lego based.

Edit: Trailer

I’m reminded of when my boss asked me whether our entry test was too hard after getting several submissions that wouldn’t even run.

Sometimes prospective employees are just shit.

Luckily it actually turns itself back on on the way down, thus slowing the descent.

They put a lot of work into the repacks to make them as small as possible. Generally compression algorithms are chosen with a balance between compression and cpu requirements. Repackers don’t care about that. They make them as small as possible with every trick known to man.

And if the algorithm used can be decompressed with all available cores in parallel it’s great as well.

I wish there was a blacklist in Sponsorblock. I mostly just need it for one channel, in others I don’t mind as much.

Currently before establishing an encrypted connection to a webserver the domain is sent to the webserver unencrypted so that the server can choose the appropriate certificate to use for encryption. That is called SNI, Server Name Indication.

Of course that’s a privacy risk. There are finally protocols to fix this but they aren’t very widespread and depend on DNS over HTTPS.

I think issuing certificates based on the IP and sending the domain name encrypted based on that certificate could have fixed this issue ages ago.

I never understood why we don’t use IP certificates to encrypt the domain with SNI.

Apparently you can do it by turning off the microwave as soon as it starts boiling, turning it on again and repeating until everything boils at the same time and explodes.

Aren’t just about all emulators open source? I bet you can find everything you need for free on F-Droid.

I originally registered the domain I’m now using for Lemmy for the company “The Empire”. I was a kid and did it just for the lulz. Also I additionally used my real name.

Nothing ever happened.

Read an interview with her the other day.

I’ve seen language switchers with translated language names that were sorted by the English name. So “Deutsch” was sorted under G.

I once got a token for a shopping cart when I just wanted the shopping cart and give the other guy the 50 cents I suspected in there. He told me that he had gotten the token as a gift himself and that I should pass it on when the time has come.

A few years later I gave it to someone who didn’t have any coins with them.

And now I remember a story that should be more important. A complete stranger paid for our engagement rings.

I wanted to propose to my girlfriend with a very special ring. One from a gumball machine. Gumball machines have become rare enough. One with rings was almost impossible to find. I’d always take different routes to and from work and stuff to watch out for one.

So one day I finally found one. With rings besides other toys. It took 20 cent coins but I didn’t have a single one on me. But I spied a woman walking along on the other side of the road. I sprinted to her end explained my conundrum. She had three coins. I offered a euro in return but she refused.

The three coins netted me five balls from the machine. I think it was broken and I could have gotten them without any coins. Anyways, in the five balls were three rings. I chose the one with the most beautiful stone for her and one without a stone for myself. I posed the question as soon as I arrived home.

Would be funny if in the future only non-nvidia cards supported PhysX.

“Despite”?

Human

1 out of 3 are actually a myriad of Indian engineers?

Report it to a local tech site. That’s a scandal.

Probably. And with the next version Lemmy as well.
