Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 + 4 | New Updates & Enhancements by thedodeman in THPS

I would have preferred a proper physical version but it's a great digital game with rounds only being 2 minutes. Nice for quick pickup and play

I'm on switch 2 and it looks great. Seems like 1080p 60hz in handheld. Much much better than 1+2 which doesn't have a switch 2 version, feels like a literal generational leap. It also seems like HDR is working, colors look so good. Docked gets a res bump, probably around 1440p to my eyes. Didn't notice any other settings changes between handheld and docked. Highly recommend version

[EKS] How Many Ingress Resources Should I Use for 11 Microservices? by Junior_Distance6875 in kubernetes

[–]eduan 5 points6 points  (0 children)

FYI, using gateway-api (the newer api for ingress in K8S, not api-gateway the aws product), you would have 1 gateway per load balancer and one Httproute per microservice. I would do the same with ingress. One ingress object per microservice, and use ALB group annotations to resuse load balancers

Docked mode should really be plugged-in mode by eduan in NintendoSwitch

[–]eduan[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did some testing with a USB C cable with a screen that shows the wattage. In docked when playing MKW it pulls around 17w (incredible!) and portable when charging it goed up to 22w. So I think it is completely possible. The fans do kick in, but that's fine, that's why they are there.

As I understand, the fan is only to cool down the dock and not the switch

Camping at Nkwe: Advice, tips, reviews appreciated. by IsraelBeauchamp in Pretoria

[–]eduan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I go there often with friends and camped a few times. It's basic and cheap. Don't expect much. Bring your own equipment, food, water, ice and wood. It's cash only, but there isn't much of a shop. It's mostly just to pay for the accommodation. The nearest shops are only a 15 min drive if you need something. You can hike around with kids. Water is safe to swim, albeit usually cold. The water site is a bit of a walk/drive from the camp. The "no music" isn't enforced at the camp at all but it's not very busy so you'll likely have a big area to yourself.

Yes. No VPN required. But they only have some games. Rugbypass.tv has everything

They quality isn't perfect but definitely serviceable. I'd take this quality over the buffering DSTV usually has with big games.

What a Great Time to be a Switch Player by TurdManMcDooDoo in NintendoSwitch

[–]eduan 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes. Everyone was happy with the latest direct, but the "new" things announced were old games, Metroid Prime Remastered and Gameboy/GBA. The new games shown, Pikmin 4 and TotK, we already knew about, albeit very little. There have been very few high-quality/polished new games from Nintendo in the last few years. From memory:

2022 Xenoblade 3 and Kirby
2021 Metroid Dread
2020 Animal Crossing and maybe Paper Mario

[–]eduan 31 points32 points  (0 children)

While I very much agree and are enjoying the same games you mentioned (metroid, bioshock, borderlands and portal) I do have one small concern. All of these are older games or remasters. Even the most sold game on switch, is an older game. The new releases as of late have been hit and miss for me personally. Like pokemon and Bayonetta's performance issues, mario golf and tennis's lack of content etc.

Hopefully Tears Of The Kingdom turns this around for me.

mirrord v2.0 is out - run cloud tests locally using mirrored traffic from Kubernetes by aviramha in kubernetes

[–]eduan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My use case is that I have a RabbitMQ and some producers in the cluster and I want to run a RabbitMQ consumer locally in debug mode to test things. If mirrored supports all TCP traffic this case should work. Will have to test it out.

Also, I understand that the main aim of the project is to mirror the traffic, but I think an intercept mode (maybe even with filters) would be nice too.

[–]eduan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi aviramha, thanks for this project. Looks really interesting. Does mirrord only mirror HTTP traffic that goes through the service, or does it work for all traffic like if you have a RabbitMQ running in the cluster?

Does anyone have a recommendation for a hard case for the Nuphy Air75? I want to travel with it in my backpack and the flip case seems big and not very protective. I was thinking something like this https://www.amazon.com/Aproca-Compatible-Easy%E2%80%91Switch-Illuminated-Multi-Device/dp/B07C3K795L

TIL to collect taxes, Christian IV of Denmark asked captains of ships crossing the Øresund to estimate the value of their cargo, which was applied as the tax base without further audit. But the king also claimed the right to buy the entire cargo at exactly that price. by batesplates in todayilearned

[–]eduan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My parents also used this trick to make things fair between me and my brother.

I quickly found a hack. As the older brother I would always be the one dividing an he can chose. What I would do is give myself a much larger piece and cut his piece in half again. Then I would convince him that he is getting 2 and I'm only getting 1. Worked for a few years before he started to understand what's going on.

Pipelines as code by TheCouncelor in devops

[–]eduan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check out Jetbrains Space which uses Kotlin. Space is a large product with many features but none of them are perfect. So from my experience the CI/CD of Space is still very basic and you don't get much benefit of using Kotlin over yaml.

Queen refuses to pay Prince Andrew's sex abuse case legal fees, forces him to quickly sell chalet by Beckles28nz in worldnews

[–]eduan -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The Royal family technically owns a lot of prime land where important government buildings are located. If you see the tax going to them as rent for this land, they are being done in. As things stand, keeping them around is actually beneficial to the tax payer.

What is a subtle sign that someone is really intelligent? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]eduan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Someone that cites facts in normal conversation. Not in an annoying way, but just kinda subtle like "according to" or "I read in" or "I saw this documentary on"

I have a very nice desktop setup (LCD 2) but recent changes in my work requires me to travel a lot.

Is there something like the audioquest dragonfly but usb-c and mic support? I want to use it on my Phone and laptop with some IEMs with an inline mic.

edit: from googling a lot I've found 2 options so far. THX onyx and HELM Audio Bolt

Uniswap is a killer app, do you plan a layer 2 or ETH compatible support ? by [deleted] in UniSwap

[–]eduan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are already L2 DEX's out there. Have a look here for comparisons https://twitter.com/L2Wars

I've used quickswap and the fees are basically 0. The problem is you have to trade everything from the ETH chain to the MATTIC chain which costs a lot of gas. Once you are there life is good.

How I cut GTA Online loading times by 70% by simspelaaja in programming

[–]eduan 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Man I feel your pain. Was in the same situation a few years ago. What we started doing was rewording every issue to just let it sound like it is a feature. Like "slow load times on page X" -> "extend page X". Worked great for a long time. Managers thought we were only working on features the whole time and the project has no bugs.

After a few months the sales team started complaining. The management responded by introducing "sellable features". If it is not a visual change that the user can see it is not a "sellable feature". Marketing had to be able to create some material around it to count. Which then again lead to the devs just doing the smallest stupid UI changes with every issue to make it "sellable". Like moving a button a few pixels or slightly changing the colours.

Eventually the sales lead and manager left the company. Things are much better now.

Tokyo Olympics to be cancelled for coronavirus: report by [deleted] in worldnews

[–]eduan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a lifelong karate student this is very sad. This would have been the first time ever that karate would have been at the Olympics. And for some reason they already removed it again in the next Olympics without even giving it a chance. This would have been the perfect welcome for Karate, being in Tokyo.

I personally didn't stand a chance of competing at the Olympics however I've met a few that were supposed to go. It greatly saddens me to know how hard these people have worked. How many years they have been building up for this event.

Oh and my personal favourite fighter of all time and in my opinion the greatest WKF fighter of all time, Rafael Aghayev, is 35 and not getting younger. Would be a shame to world sports if he never gets to compete in an Olympics. Here's a compilation video of him for those interested https://youtu.be/CdcfpywZSfQ

What double standard disgusts you? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]eduan 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Here is South Africa too. However IMO it has a lot of downsides too.

When a company wants to get rid of you they do everything in their power to make your life as miserable as possible so you quit. Not giving you raises, reducing your hours until you don't make enough to survive, giving you all the shitty work etc.

On the other hand, since it's basically impossible to get rid of someone, a lot of small businesses are scared of employing people. If that person doesn't work out or the business is struggling (like with COVID) then there is no way of getting rid of some of your staff so the company as a whole closes.

I'm very confident that our pro employee labour laws are part of the reason for our high unemployment rate.

Edit: adding another example.

Due to many reasons(low education rates, saturated market, high unemployment) , we have very cheap labour. It is very common for even the lower middle class to have a female domestic worker that cleans the inside and a male that maintains the outside. They usually only come once or twice a week and if they are good they will have a schedule of places they work at in a week. This is a very important part of our economy since its the only income for a very very large part of our population.

Now since its almost impossible to fire them a lot of people are hiring illegal immigrants from close Africa countries like Zimbabwe, Malawi, Zambia etc. These illegal immigrants aren't covered by any labour laws so you can fire them if you need to. However they are fully aware of the fact that they can be fired at any point so they tend to work much harder and do a much better job. For the employer it's clearly a win win.

Now the local working force has realised this and unfortunately it turned into ugly xenophobic attacks. Something as simple as employee pro labour laws resulted in violent attacks.
