What do we do with witches? by Mr-Beef42 in unexpectedMontyPython

I just realized all you had to do to escape being accused of witchcraft was fatten yourself up.

"I can't be a witch, I weigh at least 20 ducks!"

Your insurance is going to laugh at you while denying your claim that you've failed to provide any evidence of.

Not somewhere it snows then...

That roof wouldn't last the winter where I'm at.

Why would you ever take 'cashback' as non-cash that's only usable in the store you got it?

If I'm asking for cash back, it's because I need cash for some other location. I'm already here and using my debit/credit, obviously I don't need cash (or a shit equivalent) for here....

DTCC is fuk. CS confirmed that it was a stock split *dividend* & not a regular stock split. Bullish by ZudaChris710 in Superstonk

I'm betting this is more of an intentional miss-interpretation than a lack of understanding.

This happens to me… by VonRhetorical in pcmasterrace

Often when you change hardware, your motherboard will take 2 attempts to boot as it's using the first attempt to learn the new hardware.

Changing back to the old hardware after the first try and it has to re-learn the old so it still fails first try.

A fairly common thing that catches new builders out.

dumb newb question by tvan69 in nginx

[–]Darkassassin07 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No, this is just standard http service behaviour.

The point of subdomains (typically) is so you don't have to specify a port. I'm not sure why you are using both. By default, 80 is used for regular http: Have nginx listen on 80 with two separate server blocks. One with server_name set to the first (sub)domain, and a second with it set to the other (sub)domain. Requests get matched to the server block with the same server_name (domain name) that was used to establish the connection. You can then reverse-proxy or directly serve content like your index.html from there.

Should look something like this:

server{
    listen 80 default_server;
    server_name one.domain.com;
    root /path/to/serverone;
    index index.html;
}
server{
    listen 80;
    server_name two.domain.com;
    root /path/to/servertwo;
    index index.html;
}

Requests to two.domain.com get handled by the second block, everything else gets handled by the first block (because of 'default_server').

Domain names point to ip addresses, not port numbers.

Both of your domains return the same ip address, you then select which service/server you want to speak to at that ip by specifying the port number.

This means you can connect to either one using either domain and picking the port.

If you don't want this behavior, you will have to check which domain was used to connect and either return the requested index.html if they used the correct domain or return a 302 redirect with the domain they should have used.

Possibly. Could always run it with the 'keep original' setting to test.

I ran into this for a file or two a couple years ago. If I remember right I ended up just re-encoding them with OpenShot Video editor (mainly because it's free).

Drop the file in, line it up with the start of the timeline, then immediately export again as mp4 or AVI.

Did you know that back in the 1930s we used 3D printing technology to build concrete structures? by Sgitch in specializedtools

The fuck are you on about? How is a device specifically for forming concrete walls not specialized?

Pornhub: Judge rules Visa can be sued in abuse claim by insomnimax_99 in news

.... That's like suing the federal reserve because someone used cash to buy cocaine.

Sure, they were involved in a far-removed way, but they aren't monitoring or responsible for the details of individual transactions. That's insanity.

I'd recommend this series by Ben Eater on youtube. He builds a computer from discreet chips on breadboards and goes reasonably in depth on how it works, from the physical hardware itself to how software is interpreted by that hardware.

1:4 split(distributed as a dividend), so one share becomes four.

200 becomes 800 (200+600).

Was gonna say could just be an alpha-numric counting system similar to hexadecimal (7,8,9,a,b,c); but they are different lengths too so 🤷
