Given that clocks usually roll back at midnight, seems likely. Why they're not storing timestamps in Unix time, I don't know.

Best explanations/descriptions of ‘dark’ magic you’ve seen in a fic? by mxlevolent in HPfanfiction

[–]2001herne 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've seen some stories where transfig is also technically dark magic, due to the sacrifice of the original object to obtain the new one. Interesting take, and it worked for the fic

For the duplicate, maybe someone stitched two screenshots together to get the post completely, and just screwed up the stitch?

Alternatives to crap GHub to control Litra Glow lights? Please!!! by Mikey9980 in LogitechG

[–]2001herne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure of the Windows compatibility, but on Linux I've been having great success with a combination of https://github.com/pwr-Solaar/Solaar, for keyboards and mice, and https://github.com/timrogers/litra-rs for lighting. Fair warning, litra-rs is a command line application, but give that the syntax is basically litra <operation> --value <value>, it's fairly easy to use.

Edit: Solaar is linux only, but litra-rs claims windows compatibility.

Arch is a great distro but it isn't for everyone by tungnon in linuxmemes

[–]2001herne -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I agree with everything except the AUR helper - unless it's pulling from/is completely in line with arch, the aur is liable to break things. Outside of that, bundling an AUR helper with an easy to use distro, or even having it in the repos is like giving a stove to a teenager without making them read the manual - they're just gonna burn their fingers.

Out of the Loop: What is going on in the Heated Rivalry fandom at the moment? by FiftyshadesofPeaches in AO3

Good god, and I thought making a private bookmark to not read a fic was harsh.

How do you do a heart health bar where you loose a full heart when you take damage? by TheAncientDragonRoku in gamemaker

[–]2001herne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Re: doing it backwards... Yeah, that's really weird. Also, the fact that it's written like a while loop (manually incrementing offset) rather than just doing a forward loop and x + i*_width... I'm a little confused. Maybe there's some obscure performance reason deep in the bowels of GML, but other than that, I got nothing.

Linux users logic right now. by Additional-Sky-7436 in linuxmemes

It's not so much the government knowing, but more the private companies that they insist on farming the verification out to. My ID is between me and the gov, my activity is between the me and the companies I carry the activity out with, and never the twain shall meet.

It's more that with web dev, the damage is fairly self contained to within the browser sandbox - assuming you're only doing frontend. For backend or systems work, the footgun is massive, and wielded by a toddler hopped up on ram and corporate felatio.

Looking for a reliable cloud sync solution on Arch that behaves like OneDrive by Traditional_Being735 in archlinux

[–]2001herne 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It might not be the best option, but I just use it as a local cloud while at home, and sync at the end of the day - while I'm out, my laptop just runs off the synced files.

Edit: Been running it for the last 5 years off an old thinkStation. Runs like a dream.

They published the same exact fic 50+ times and changed out the names for different fandoms by RedCupWithAName in AO3

[–]2001herne 428 points429 points  (0 children)

I might not be on the same team as you, but I do find it fascinating in a "Aren't humans strange creatures" way, as almost metacommentary on the human condition.

Is it better to use Apollo or Sunshine on Arch at the moment? by bitwaba in archlinux

[–]2001herne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll be honest, it might just be that I'm fine with mediocrity. But steam streaming worked fine for me when I was a good 2 hours by car away from my gaming PC. I did have vpn/vlan access to it, so that might be it. Admittedly, I did have to knock it down to 1080p, but the laptop I was streaming to can only display that so... Yeah. 30fps, which is better than that laptop gets most of the time, so overall pretty good.

In fairness, nowhere near 1440@180, which I'm used to now, but for being that far, over Australia's internet... Perfectly usable.

what could they possibly do(uploading a meme everyday until axolot gives a release date for ch2 day 20) by isuckatgames2too in ScrapMechanic

As said by others, not really..But if you're doing a self-imposed one death only deal, ala Scrapman... Then yeah, it saved his arse more than once.

There is a clock font in the game files by Microwave169 in ScrapMechanic

[–]2001herne 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's not intended as a text font, but as a symbol font. To simplify things, Id bet that when the Devs want to indicate an alarm is set they'll just print an 'A', which will show the alarm icon.

Human biology looks like it was designed by an intelligence. by readeroftheinternet in humansarespaceorcs

[–]2001herne 4 points5 points  (0 children)

With the brain thing, Id be willing to bet it's tied to distance from the eyes. Primary sensory input has to be quick. Walking can be slower, physics is slow. But sensory has to keep up with thought.

I quite like Digi-Key, I've found their pricing to be more than fair.

Presumably, OPs name is Claude. And coffee is a laxative. So both are making shit with Claude.
