Bit of a mess, kinda depressed, and going through a gender identity crisis :3

(Ongoing issues, brain pls fix)

  • Building my first NAS: Assistance on part selection please

    Jump

  • Ah, sorry, I should've specified this further. Whether this can run what I need it to isn't the primary concern, I believe it can do so, I primarily attached my decision making basis just in case it changes anything.

    I'm more concerned about things like picking the correct drives, or if limiting my motherboard selection through an ITX case was a bad idea, or if my choice of not going with ECC was a poor one, those kinds of things.

  • Rust

    Jump

  • Over the last one or two years I feel like Rust haters have gotten even louder than the Rust evangelists. For every person who declares "Rewrite it in Rust!" I see two or three people saying how they hate Rust or how pointless it is and so on.

  • Stress eating is my weakness

    Jump

  • On the other hand it's just a good way to get to know your neighbours. I baked too many sweets a while back and shared them around and now they know me better and, I believe, are generally more fond of me. So win win, I get better relations with them and they get sweets :3

  • why are website language switchers in the current language?

    Jump

  • Even worse when a version is actually different. I had to check the US prices in a store once, it decided "nah mate, your IP's not American, clearly you're a bloody idiot, here's your native version" and even when I manually changed the url to US English, as they did languages based on part of the path, it still decided clearly I must not know what I want. I couldn't even try to infer the price, as the product didn't exist on my version of the site.

    And aside from that and language pet peeves, what if you're on Holiday? Or live in an area that speaks a lot of languages close together?

    As Cousin Mose said, the language is in the header, the fact that some web devs decide the IP address is clearly a better way to figure out what language you want is insane

  • In terms of 40K recipes, corpse starch is pretty easy. De-bone a (generally human, but others can work in a pinch) corpse, grind up the rest, add salt, and pack it in a can.

  • The Trek Place

    Jump

  • That's a simple enough message to even get it from Warhammer 40k - Gender? Skin colour? Disabilities? Doesn't matter, pick up a Lasrifle and start shooting xenos

  • U.S. officials urge Americans to use encrypted apps amid unprecedented cyberattack

    Jump

  • Note that it doesn't mean metadata is encrypted. They may not know what you sent, but they may very well know you message your mum twice a day and who your close friends are that you message often, that kinda stuff. There's a good bit you can do with metadata about messages combined with the data they gather through other services.

  • Palworld maker vows to fight Nintendo lawsuit on behalf of fans and indie developers

    Jump

  • I bet Nintendo has a lot of patent violations to choose from. They have a patent on such bangers as, rephrased from legal speech to human speech: "An air mount automatically turning into a ground mount upon landing" Source

    According to Nintendo, if I understand this correctly, they have the sole legal right to make a bird mount that can also sprint on the ground if needed, because that sure was a special idea.

  • Detailed Error Messages

    Jump

  • It's likely a difference of emotion compared to logic. Emotionally they'd think "Damn it, now we need to check for such a weird specific edge-case, this is so annoying" while logically knowing it's better the tester caught it.
