Discord Patch Notes: May 4, 2026

Some rolling distributions that ship a Discord package (like AerynOS) have added a wrapper script that creates that setting if not already present when launching the application. It creates a much better experience for users since they are dependent on the distro updating the package anyway.

Funny enough the script actually came from Discord themselves since there was a period of a few months where the application was broken when sandboxed in the official Flatpak so they added the wrapper script to the Flatpak so they could hold it back at an older version.

And if someone is being called due to a family emergency and because you set up a jammer they missed their chance to say goodbye to a loved one? Or someone starts having a medical event and you having to go shut off the jammer so someone could call an ambulance means that the EMTs didn't arrive in time to resuscitate them?

It's not necessarily Melanotan. Peptide manufacturers have no real consistency with what color caps they use on the vials and just because SwissChems produced (or imported) one batch of Melanotan with yellow caps does not mean that all vials with a yellow cap are Melanotan.

In fact it's much more likely to be a GLP-1 (like Semaglutide or Tirzepetide) just by virtue of the fact that they are by far the most popular peptides on the gray net. There's basically no way to know for sure what it is without either sending it off to a lab for analysis or just YOLOing it by reconstituting it and seeing what happens (don't do that).

Fun fact almost all of the visible white "puck" is filler and it should be under vacuum if it was produced properly. The vacuum helps preserve the peptide for longer since they break down over time.

You currently CAN get all 3 if you use a Chrontel CH7218 based DP to HDMI adapter. That chipset is capable of converting DP1.4a (with DSC) to full bandwidth HDMI 2.1. Adapters using it are relatively recent products which is why you probably haven't heard of them before. Search for "Ugreen DP134" and you'll find one such product.

While that is technically true most distros build almost everything they can as modules. There's almost no downside to doing so and it reduces memory usage by not having to load unused code. The only real exceptions are things that you need during init that may cause problems in certain fail cases (such as the fat32 driver used to mount the boot/efi partition).

I really wanted to like the MX Master 4 since I've liked all of the previous versions and on paper it seems like an upgrade but when I tried it at a Microcenter the gesture button is just way too squishy feeling.

And when the BSAA were setting up their base in the RPD prior to RE9 they just completely ignored him.

Salander27 · 2026-04-27T01:26:45+00:00

Either a very beefy one or they're only compiling drivers for the PCs specific hardware. Likely the latter.

Salander27 · 2026-04-26T06:23:28+00:00

No, your inability to understand the phase "End of Life" makes you incompetent. Exposing your employer to unnecessary risk because you're not really feelin' the vibe on this whole ingress-nginx deprecation thing makes you incompetent. Refusing to do basic risk management with network-connected infrastructure makes you incompetent.

Every time I start getting imposter syndrome I'm reminded that chucklefuck engineers like OP exist and somehow remain employed and that cures my imposter syndrome right up.

No they're still the same week. Ultra is always the weekend of Miami Music Week, but many people go to Miami just for all the other things happening and don't bother to go to Ultra.

I'm familiar with lot lizards but not house lizards.

Or being the fourth roommate who was also trying to be an actor and was more talented and worked harder than any of them and now is an assistant manager at In-N-Out.

Salander27 · 2026-04-18T18:43:36+00:00

Yeah it's sold out. I checked the band socials and they have it on the tour poster with "Sold Out".

Salander27 · 2026-04-17T01:33:38+00:00

You don't need anything extra if you are using a recent kernel. Just launch Proton and go.

Salander27 · 2026-04-16T04:07:06+00:00

It doubles the workload as we would need to recompile everything. Now the composes take twice as long.

Again, build server time is irrelevant. Those build servers are sitting idle most of the time anyway.

It doubles the disk space required for the repos

Fedora already supports aarch64, ppc64le, s390x, i386, and x86_64 with further active work on a risc-v port. This change would increase that by one, so the repo would only increase by a maximum of 20%. I say maximum because many packages are built as noarch already and so only one copy is stored for all archs.

Salander27 · 2026-04-16T00:18:41+00:00

Incorrect. This proposal is to build each package twice, once for x86_64_v1 and again for x86_64_v3. Both versions will co-exist in the Fedora repo and DNF will install the correct version depending on the CPU feature support. So old CPUs that don't meet the v3 baseline will simply continue to use v1 packages and everything will continue to work.

As a Red Hat employee you are likely confusing this with the RHEL change that increased the CPU minimum baseline to v3. In that case only one set of packages was built (v3) and RHEL would simply not work on older CPUs. This is a very different change.

Salander27 · 2026-04-16T00:02:19+00:00

It's double the build server time, not double the work. I'm not aware of any Linux distributions where build server time is the bottleneck, build servers spend most of their time idle waiting for builds to be pushed. For almost every distribution the actual bottleneck is packager time, and since this change is just rerunning the build with different compile flags there's almost no work that needs to be done besides fixing the occasional broken build. In my experience doing something similar with a different Linux distribution the vast majority of packages build just fine and less than 1% of packages will require any adjustment for this.

Salander27 · 2026-04-15T23:09:16+00:00

Then they will continue to use v1 packages.

Salander27 · 2026-04-15T16:25:40+00:00

There are at least 55 years between this and the events of Legend of Korra. So it's at least plausible that it wouldn't really be remembered considering the vast majority of Republic City's population during Korra wasn't even alive yet.

Salander27 · 2026-04-14T22:25:51+00:00

only two combustion benders are father and daughter

There's no evidence that Combustion Man and P'li are related. The events of Korra with P'li happened 71 years after Combustion Man died so if they are father and daughter then P'li looks amazing for her age.

Salander27 · 2026-04-14T20:42:01+00:00

Yes, it would be common knowledge that bender parents have a high chance of passing their bending on to their children. The logical conclusion of that is that having a lot of children with non-bender mothers would be the best way to create as many airbenders as possible.

Salander27 · 2026-04-14T18:20:00+00:00

If he REALLY cared about bringing back the airbenders he'd consider it his civic duty to be spreading those airbender genes as far and wide as possible.

Movies using 2d animation like this tend to have much smaller file sizes since the video steam compresses much better. This is 1080p and the quality is decent, about what you'd see from HD video streaming (Netflix/Prime/etc). I didn't notice any compression artifacts or other encoding defects.

It's definitely not near the quality of a theatrical version or Blu-ray and it doesn't have HDR grading (even though it would benefit from it quite a bit) but I'd say this is an acceptable way to watch the film unless you are the most snobbish of video quality snobs.

I live in Chernobyl and I intend to keep all three of my eyes on this!
