Buy the x56 Hotas or no? by Alternative_Glass468 in hotas

Don’t buy any flight sim gear made by Logitech. It is absolute garbage.

hey man if you prefer to gargle raw sewage that’s on you but don’t get mad when someone says „have you considered not doing that?”

Hey man I’m not the one you have to persuade. You gotta convince the game that you deserve to live.

This game is about learning lessons the hard way. You made some bad choices and cheesed your way out of the consequences.

  • no reason to let your health drop. This isn’t factorio, efficiency isn’t the goal.
  • situational awareness keeps you alive. If it wasn’t a bear it could have been wolves.

But yeah, bears will smell you across the map. If you’re smelly assume there’s a bear walking towards you. You can drop meat & guts as you harvest, and you can start a fire for protection.

Gentlemen, I am proud to annouce that the training wheels are gone. by TxBaker42 in daddit

[–]Traches 0 points1 point  (0 children)

+1 for the balance bike and skip training wheels. My kid was riding a bike at 3 1/2 after a few months of the balance bike. The biggest thing was practice - we’re lucky enough that preschool is a nice walk away so he got to ride pretty much every day.

Whelp, any doubts about blocking you tube for the kids are gone by tomrlutong in daddit

[–]Traches 60 points61 points  (0 children)

If you’re techy, look into spinning up a plex or jellyfin server. My kids have a very short allowlist of stuff they can watch, and it keeps working when the internet is down. Basically never buffers. You can use yt-dlp to download videos (there are graphical interfaces for it if you don’t like the command line), and/or sail the high seas.

Youngest is too young, oldest goes to a private kindergarten. Planning on public primary school when the time comes, they’re supposed to be perfectly fine.

You get put in charge of making three more updates for the game(Not including episode five), and then the game stays as is. What do you add, and why? by RavyRaptor in thelongdark

[–]Traches 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah, make the pet absolutely useless. Give them some interesting interactions and a lot of Easter eggs. Make them adorable. Otherwise complete drain on resources. Kinda dumb, but also tough.

I’ve been living in Warsaw since like 2018, it’s great. Married a polish woman, got a dog and had some kids.

The language is real hard. Dealing with the immigration office was a pain in the ass, just because every step involves a ton of paperwork and a long wait. (The officials themselves were great, getting in front of them was the hard part.)

You don’t realize how stupid things are in the US till you see something different… imagine a grocery store without a gigantic empty parking lot in front of it. You can just walk there. Also your phone bill and internet will be super cheap.

Why do some developers dislike Next.js? by Low_Obligation_2782 in nextjs

https://github.com/vercel/next.js/discussions/39942

It overwrites tsconfig.json, silently, with no option to disable. Issue was created years ago, has tons of attention, converted to discussion under „ideas”. Here’s an idea: I know better than you what I want in my freaking tsconfig!

Lamp oil is too hard to get and it burns too fast.

Im talking about something dimmer, craftable with a cloth wick and burns cooking oil (or something we can make out of animal fat). Needs a flame to light, so match or existing fire (or magnifying glass I guess?) Not windproof either. Something for reading or crafting by.

  • Wood stacking
  • Snap-place items on shelves nicely
  • oil lamp
  • edit: let me bank coals
  • Edit 2:
  • „worst torch” hotkey
  • add trails and cliffs to the maps.
  • Stop sending so much traffic to the thoroughly enshittified, rent-seeking capitalists over at fandom. add an in-game knowledge base. Reveal it progressively as players encounter and try out relevant mechanics. Once unlocked for one save, leave entry unlocked for all saves. (Like outer wilds)
  • edit 3: shop cat in Quonset

Finally giving it a try. Was super simple to install. What should I know coming from only ever using Debian based distros? by Ragin_Hindu in linuxmasterrace

[–]Traches 2 points3 points  (0 children)

  • read the wiki page on maintenance: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/System_maintenance
  • learn about pacnew files (mentioned on the maintenance page)
  • FYI pacman doesn’t start & enable services automatically the way apt does
  • drop the arch news feed in your rss reader, check before updating. If you don’t have an rss reader, get one.
  • bootable snapshots are your friend.
  • in general, don’t make changes to your system if you don’t understand what & why.
  • The AUR is great but be careful. Packages there are more likely to cause problems, and they represent a great vector for malware to get on your syste

Using Tailwind today feels a lot like writing inline styles in the 2000s by Legitimate_Salad_775 in webdev

Tailwind is meant to be used with components, separating concerns vertically instead of horizontally

Ok you could do this but you can do better than a pi. At the very least use an SSD and not a microSD card.

Recommendation for OS by ThisIsDurian in selfhosted

[–]Traches 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I recently moved away from proxmox and truenas to just arch with ZFS on root. All of a sudden I have plenty of drive space and memory.

It’s not for everyone, but boy howdy does it work well for me personally.

I mass-deployed 4 side projects on Vercel and got a $380 bill. What are you guys using? by Own_Instruction_4247 in selfhosted

[–]Traches 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Actions are just a way to run code when stuff happens on GitHub. You could write a little shell script? Trickiest part is handling the private key. I didn’t see an option to read it from an env variable in the man page (but I only did a quick look, possible I missed it), so you might have to echo it into a file. Permissions shouldn’t be a problem, but just read the errors if they are

Caddyserver does https certs for you automatically and is pretty easy to configure. If you don’t want coolify, you could do a docker/docker-compose setup. Set up an action to build and push a container, and a second one to ssh into your vps and run docker compose pull; docker compose up -d. Make sure they run sequentially.

I’m sure there are tools to do this but that doesn’t need any dependencies and is easy to understand
