IMO, the drama was satisfactorily resolved to the benefit of the game & community.
And yeh, it's EA. If you want a complete game, wait for final release.
If you are jonesing for a subnautica fix, this has the 1st chapter of content

Client -> Reverse Proxy -> Upstream Server

It's quite rare these days for a client (eg web browser, video game, phone app... anything that needs an internet connection, really) to directly connect to the server that is actually serving the request.

It often goes through a reverse proxy which can direct the request to the "best" server (reverse proxies can have multiple upstream servers, either as a cluster that can share the load all dealing with the same service, as a bunch of different services, or both).

This has a lot of benefits for service admins (at the cost of mild complexity), and has near-zero cost for clients.

Plasma 7 is being renamed Desktop For Plasma365 2027 edition.
Everything is electron apps. Native apps are ran as web assembly inside an electron app.
There will be no UI, only a shitty AI chatbox that is always suggesting results from askjeeves (and takes 5 seconds before it suggests anything from your local machine).
Oh, and it's a monthly licence now.
And it's actually just a laggy local UI of the actual desktop that is ran in the cloud on a container with 512mb ram and 1 CPU.

Oh wait, this isn't microslop.
Good things on Linux (generally) stay the same or get better, not different so "line goes up".
I think I'm still getting over the windows PTSD

I read it as "pick up support for the FOSS projects" as opposed to user IT support.
So, contributing to the FOSS.
Even sponsorship would be awesome, in a "we can't do the tech stuff, but here is 10% of what we saved" kinda way

Probably not even mentioned by reform.
They will be anti-immigrant pro-taxcuts "make everything better (without having to explain how)" kinda deal

Fire needs fuel. Glad we figured that out!

But actually, this is about developing a model of wildfire burn.
So, using satellite information gathered before previous large fires, the study reckons they have a 60% accurate model for how a wildfire will burn. (From a quick skim of the article)

Does "9GW data center" not mean "a data center that consumes 9GW of power"?
Or is it "9GW of computers + 5GW of cooling + something"?

You commented on their post?
The person you blocked is the OP of the post you commented on directly. So, it's kinda expected they would reply to you

It's a draft spec.
6 is probably finalised and being implemented.
7 is probably late stage finalisation.
So 8 can be started to be drafted.

If it doesn't squidge like a folded ketchup packet under a toilet seat, it's not doing shit.
You want it dripping to the case to couple the cases thermal mass. Leaking out of the case and onto the floor is better than liquid nitrogen.

Yup. It's not giving an example so "e.g." doesn't make sense

For example fake bible verse

 

(not sure where to post this...)

I had an idea there might be a TUI lib for typescript. A duckduckgo search came up with an article that described exactly what I wanted!
So of course I immediately searched for this fabled tui lib. A quick search didn't reveal anything, and npm can't seem to find it either! https://www.npmjs.com/search?q=Tui
Navigating directly to the npm package page reveals a 10 year old got repo with no actual code... (https://github.com/basarat/tui)

What the scuff is this world coming to?!
This seems to absolutely align with my experience of using LLMs

(Also accepting suggestions for typescript TUI libs that actually exist!)

 

I've been here a while, and I appreciate the community and the defed/hiding list.
I also know programming.dev contributes to upstream Lemmy repos.

I saw another post about another instances funding.
Which reminded me....

Is programming.dev on track for funding?
Need some more donations?
Is there a runway?
