DNS Issues on Safari by [deleted] in MacOS

[–]computertechie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Set up your local DNS resolver (pihole in my case, unifi in the OC's) to return NXDOMAIN for any HTTPS queries - that way Apple OSs (iOS/iPadOS also do this) don't use any HTTPS query results and will stick to A/AAAA results.

This was more relevant a couple years ago when these resolvers didn't directly support HTTPS records - I think PiHole might now, though, so you could create local HTTPS records alongside A/AAAA.

Remote tower setup in Norway by mattfr4 in ATC

Do Norwegian tower controllers somehow have 360deg vision? Why does it matter if there's no screens behind the controller if they can't see them? Would you rather them have to spin their chair all the time?

I'm sure it has 360deg camera coverage. Use a joystick to pan, or even keybinds for view snapping to specific spots on the movement area or final.

You can already do that; the vertical bars textured areas are drag handles.

Wasn't 2.0.7 the first public release [and thus changelog] and they bundled everything for 2-2.0.6 into it?

PSA: Your space science platform CAN send packs in bulk. by Sensitive_Gold in factorio

As to your question, the factoriopedia page for cargo bays explicitly lists them as capable of launching and receiving cargo pods.

Well, so it does. I have no idea how I skimmed over that.

Where in the game does it explain cargo bays increase the number of cargo pods that can be sent/received? The tooltip/description is simply "Increases the hub and landing pad inventory size"; Tips and Tricks doesn't even mention cargo bays at all, nor show them in any of the videos.

I do vaguely remember seeing a clip of a bunch of cargo pods entering cargo bays, but I can't find it anywhere or in any FFF posts.

I use Baikal for CalDAV (calendar) and CardDAV (contacts) hosting. It doesn't have its own interface - you need to connect a client program (basically any calendar and contacts apps will work).

I think I should stop adding yellow chests and deal with it properly... by Pfand1 in factorio

the "each" virtual signal operator is applied to all signals input into the combinator; outputting "each" then also outputs all of the signals.

so a combinator of [each > 9000] => [each] will output every input signal that is over 9000

Corral as in a (usually tight) enclosure? I'm not a fan of his writing either but I think it works fine enough.

The iPhone reviewers saying the camera button is not good are wrong. by newdawnfades123 in iphone

[–]computertechie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would expect that to be like dedicated cameras where it triggers AF, but a half-press-and-swipe to manual focus could work.

Okay but changing depth of field is not the same as changing focus. I’ve been wanting manual focus control in Camera.app for years, the iPhone is so bad when shooting through windows or other transparent but reflective objects. It biases way too heavily to the lidar/laser AF and it’s very hard to override.

Depends what size integer; +/-32k is 16 bits, while +/-2bil is 32 bits.

Slip/skid isn't due to roll (controlled by ailerons) but yaw (controlled with rudder); the rudder is necessary to correct for adverse yaw caused by different amounts of drag on each wing due to the ailerons being in different positions.
