I run a Mediawiki instance for an online community on a fairly cheap box (not a ton of traffic) but had a few instances of AI bots like Amazon's crawling a lot of expensive API pages thousands of times an hour (despite…
For personal projects I usually use Astro[1] solely because 90% of the stuff I am making doesn't require anything more than basic HTML/CSS and maybe a couple static components, but I also have the flexibility to add SSR…
Discord has one of the better APIs out there for social media, and is definitely free of charge.
If you click on the three-dot menu, there's a small caret button you have to click to show more of the pill buttons at the top, and one of them is "Cached". It feels like every time I need to use that button it's moved…
GCE allows one e2.micro instance in their free tier
On the contrary, I'm a user of social media for exactly that purpose. When I use Twitter or Instagram, I'm specifically using it for the natural discoverability it offers. Almost half of the people I follow on Twitter…
I tend to use the argument, "if we stopped developing technology because it threatened some people's livelihoods, a 'calculator' would still refer to a person."
Bit late but: To The Moon (and the subsequent A Bird Story, Finding Paradise, and Imposter Factory): Wonderful series of games that focuses on narrative. Amazing soundtrack and good recurring cast of characters.…
ffmpeg too! Been doing a lot with it lately and I barely even feel like I have scratched the service of the ffmpeg argument science.
I really don't like any argument for how to pronounce ".gif", so I pronounce it in as many ways as possible to try to annoy people. Here's a wonderful video on the subject: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bmqy-Sp0txY
I've been doing the catch-all signup for over a decade myself and haven't had any issues. What service checks stuff like that?
I assume holding index and middle fingers up. With the German way of counting, usually the thumb would be up as well, meaning 3, so it's easily mistaken as a 3 despite only having two fingers up.
Enemy diversity is just part of another big issue for me: General gameplay diversity. Most of the stuff the game has you do outside of story content is just fighting the same enemies or boss types. There's no unique…
I use toggle mute a lot in Discord, especially on devices where I don't use a mic with a hardware mute, but Teams does not, as far as I have checked, have a customizable keybind for toggle mute that doesn't require you…
Absolutely - And we already have this in the form of e.g. TV commercials, and, more recently, youtube sponsored segments. I vastly prefer getting ads relevant to what I'm currently looking at to something entirely…
I just had to deal with an annoying tracking link to unsubscribe from an unsolicited mailing list. uBlock even blocked the link click, I had to temporarily allow the tracker to unsubscribe.
> The study, which is still to be peer-reviewed, suggests... I'd take this with a grain of salt for now
Really well done! Playing around with it a little, the only thing I noticed was it was difficult to see which color meant "better" when comparing values. Maybe add a little checkmark or something if one stat is higher?…
From what I understand, the theory is that the route was specifically designed so that nobody would have known where it went. No evidence, no crime. By just nose-diving, it makes it easier to find that evidence (like…
Speaking totally anecdotally here, but one of the big benefits I see in the DMCA system is the ability for individuals to have an easy, free way to deal with any copyright infringement. I have a few friends who create…
