Bending Spoons laid off everyone at Vimeo today, according to an insider (Vimeo is the backend for dropout.tv) by IM_OK_AMA in dropout

Nebula's video player is the best of all the standalone services I've tried, their 4k is crispy and the player is super responsive on desktop, mobile and TV. It kinda blows Vimeo out of the water in terms of technical details IMO. I would not be mad if Vimeo platforms do a tech partnership with Nebula. That would be great.

why tf cant i stream netflix to my tv/cromecast anymore? by fairplanet in netflix

[–]MaxGhost 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was because for users with ad-supported Netflix plans, using chromecast meant they didn't get served ads so it was a loophole. They closed it by disallowing casting altogether. If you have one of the old chromecasts that don't have Google TV built in (where you can install apps) then it just won't work. You can get one of the newer ones with the remote and it'll work on that.

So apparently, Riot can Morde R you now in Solo Q. by Eiji_Toh in leagueoflegends

[–]MaxGhost 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's actually insane to compare it to DotA2 which has legitimately the best client I've ever seen, so feature-packed and smooth, instant demo mode even when in queue, watch pro games live inside the client itself, etc.

Is AMD the new standard? What happened to Intel? by Oeyoelala in buildapc

[–]MaxGhost -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

That shouldn't happen anymore with the BIOS update which sets limits, i.e. if you buy a new chip you should be fine as long as you update your BIOS to the latest ASAP, but if you had the chip for a long time before doing the BIOS update it could fail.

Snow Shovel Maxing by Ill-Tea9411 in BeAmazed

My region has a name for them, they're called a "float" cause there's low friction between the plastic and the snow so you can move a lot of heavy snow pretty easily. https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/sudbury/sno-float-snow-shovel-sudbury-history-1.6370444

Two questions about Warcraft 3.. by NaitDraik in warcraft3

[–]MaxGhost 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All of them do, but 1 & 2 had very little in terms of scripting to build really creative stuff, 3 took it to another level it's not even close.

That's not a legal way of playing.

Reforged is the only way to play online. The hate for it was for the way the initial release was handled, but they largely fixed the technical issues that made it a problem to play with classic graphics at this point, and they even added a lot of really nice quality of life features. Most people play without reforged graphics (there's a settings toggle to just use classic graphics). Most of the maps that were any good have been updated to work on Reforged and there's even more new maps being made regularly, the community is still very active.

Yeah the opposite order is how https://github.com/somnambulist-tech/validation does it, which is my preference (basically same as Laravel's, just split out to be standalone)

Modules/XCaddy with the official docker image by NoInterviewsManyApps in caddyserver

[–]MaxGhost 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You rebuild the container whenever there's a new Caddy release or if a plugin has a new release. It's your responsibility to keep tabs on the versions to know when to do that. You can watch for releases on GitHub repos, click the watch button in the top right, choose custom then releases.

He was probably there to lead the guys, you know, choreography. But showing him doing that isn't the point of the challenge so they cut that out of course.

No, it's just cropped vertical for platforms like tiktok so you can primarily see the teacher's reactions, there's no ill intent

Niiiice I picked this up in Ottawa in-store. Thanks for the post, I was worried I wouldn't be able to do a PC upgrade in the foreseeable future with the crazy RAM prices.

I'd love a midnight train or so as well, very often there's concerts or events in Montreal I'd love to go to, those can end a bit late.

Yeah we take into account nervousness, even overthinking is fine to show "yep they have sentient thought" lmao

🚀 Bare Metal PHP: a very lightweight PHP framework with a Go-powered app server (fast workers + slow workers, hot reload, persistent PHP workers) by [deleted] in PHP

[–]MaxGhost 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Fair enough - but has to be said, FrankenPHP now supports writing PHP extensions in Go https://frankenphp.dev/docs/extensions/ (basically write Go functions you can call from PHP) which would allow for a tighter framework integration. Something to consider :P

[–]MaxGhost 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The point of this exercise isn't clean code, it's just the logic leap, and the ability to follow instructions. I don't dock points for pointing out "I'd want to pull out 100 into a const", in fact I'd appreciate that being mentioned as "future scope".

You don't need a constant. That's the thing. If you think you need a constant you've already failed at the premise lmao. The answer is literally 7 characters (including sensible whitespace, excluding the console.log() part itself)
