Are you sure it was dot pitch and not dot clock?

Dot pitch on a crt might make the image look bad (trying to draw onto the shadow mask) but I doubt it would damage it.

Setting an invalid dot clock could damage some crts. But most of the modern (read from mid 90s on) would just go to the power save mode when they got a clock they couldn’t use. The warning did still remain on the xfree86 configuration guides though.

Showing my age perhaps.

More than 51 years if there’s one of those updates that will randomly decide to overwrite the UEFI removing your bootloader entirely :P

I would say, now it’s learning that actually sticking your head in the sand is only ever a delaying tactic. But, if it DID learn that, it’d mean it has surpassed us already.

Of course not. As the merovingian in the matrix says. French is a fantastic language, especially to curse with.

Then I suggest they use an XNOR pointer instead! Checkmate patent trolls!

Huh. I am sure you could search for individual books. For sure you could do it by goodreads ID I think? Yes, adding an entire author as the primary way to do things is a bit much for some. I know for sure I have managed to do individual books before now.

It’s a real shame because Readarr did work and they really just needed to fix their own metadata servers. No? Or were there other problems I’m not aware of?

I mean, I have to say I’ve hastened my own demise (in program terms) by over-engineering something that should be simple. Sometimes adding protective guardrails actually causes errors when something changes.

Yes, had the same happen. Something that should be simple failing for stupid reasons.

Yep. It seems they haven’t changed a thing about the format. Probably a script much older than mine on their end is generating it too.

I have a tool that I wrote, probably 5+ years ago. Runs once a week, collects data from a public API, translates it into files usable by the asterisk phone server.

I totally forgot about it. Checked. Yep, up to date files created, all seem in the right format.

Sometimes things just keep working.

With IPv6 for most use cases there’s actually more security. With privacy extensions (pretty sure it’s enabled on windows by default), when you make connections from your device, it uses a “private” IP. That is a randomly chosen address inside your network’s prefix, that changes regularly.

These addresses don’t accept incoming connections. You have a main address that doesn’t really change that you accept connections on. Firewall that for ports you want to allow and then hackers need to port scan 2^64 or 2^80 address space to find your real IPs in your prefix. If they capture your IP from a connection to a web server etc, they won’t have luck scanning you.

Again as per my post above, the biggest risk right now is bad default configurations on many home routers.

The “firewall” features are called connection tracking and, a firewall. With IPv6 I have my firewall setup very similar to NAT. Established and outgoing new connections are allowed (this is done using connection tracking). Incoming new connections are not allowed unless I open up a specific port.

Home firewalls SHOULD be setup the same for IPv6, a lot are not and IMO is the main problem right now.

Just lay down, and pretend you’re compiling.

Does /dev/null support sharding?

Yeah, but is it web scale?

That should all be covered in the unit tests.

No. That’s just because the thread simulating your consciousness has leaked too much memory. So when you sleep the thread saves important parts of the memory map and terminates and a new one is started with an empty memory map ready for a new “day” .

Yes. I host a vpn at my house. Then vpn in on fire stick/laptop etc. No problems to date.

We’d also be entirely unaware of reboots. Our reality would just resume from the last save point and we’d just move on like nothing happened.
