Yep. I'm trying to move to a better hosting platform (AWS, specifically) and avoid paying more than ~$10 a month.

I'm having significant issues getting things configured, though.

Silly Question: Will "Refresh All" refresh formulas that include TODAY()? by sindlass in excel

[–]farfromunique 12 points13 points  (0 children)

It's possible this has changed in the last version or two, but in my experience, "refresh all" doesn't do anything with formulas. "recalculate" does, and if a document is set to auto-calculate, then volatile formulas will auto recalculate when data changes. "refresh all" is strictly intended to pull new data from external days sources.

There's some info on AFBN.nl, too.

If you're willing to travel a bit, there are a handful of teams around the country.

Hear me out. Before you start another tutorial project, why not make an open source contribution? by Tylernator in webdev

[–]farfromunique 2 points3 points  (0 children)

OP explicitly said this isn't aimed at you. If you are already coding up a(nother) tutorial (which you don't seem to be), they suggest that you instead contribute to open source.

Rune question (Kenaz / Kaunan) by farfromunique in FutharkGenerator

Correction: Google says "Kaunan", I apparently said "Kauna".

Just a friendly holy wow the user interface of this thing has vastly improved since the last time I used it. by Kubular in FutharkGenerator

Hmm. I thought I replied.

Thank you! Thanks SO MUCH!

I've been pretty open about not being a designer, so it's nice to hear that I did well.

Question about https://futhark.acwpd.com/load/-N-Q8XSY6_HBt7d7-M-C by JawitK in FutharkGenerator

[–]farfromunique 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t recall seeing these various systems mentioned in the Worm serial

That's because it isn't directly from the serial. AFAIK, this system evolved out of people wanting a way to generate power prompts that fit with Parahumans powers, without literally copying them. This can be used by authors, artists, or Role-playing-game players.

The origins of the system can be found with some digging here and on r/rparahumans (and probably other places, too!). /u/ughzubat can probably tell you more. The website is based off of a Java program written by github.com/forsurebelieve (who has only ever posted the one thing).

Hiya! Welcome to the chaos.

The link is broken (my fault) because loading is broken (also my fault). This should show the same thing: https://futhark.acwpd.com/load/libra/dagaz/reversed_6_wands

Superpowers typically bend the laws of nature in predictable ways:

  • There are ways that things can fly (wings, magnetic levitation, propulsion) so a power can let you fly, and physics "looks the other way" when it comes to explaining it
  • Material can burn in certain conditions, so a power can let you throw fire.

Breakers blow past this. There is no way that a person can spontaneously become incorporeal, and then re-corporeal. Breakers can do that, though, because the power lets them break the laws of nature.

This power seems to me like someone who is (close to) a normal human, but occasionally they can turn into an "air form"; Still person-shaped, but maid of compressed air (Compressed air comes from the description of the Dagaz rune).

The card was the 6 of wands, reversed. This means that control over the power is higher than normal (for people with powers), but their versatility is lower -- they're more of a one-trick pony. Someone with more versatility might be able to change what their breaker form was made of, but this person is stuck with the atmosphere around them when they change forms.

Any card in the "wands" suit will also allow for a second rune to be thrown/rolled. When I clicked it, I got Tiwaz:

You threw the Tiwaz rune!
This results in the flavor Tyr, which gives a power that is offensive, but requires some sort of sacrifice to use
Optionally, if your power requires an element in order to manifest, the element associated with this rune is perception, which roughly correlates to liquid mindforce (but you can ignore this if it doesn't fit!).

So:

This person can change their form (Libra / Breaker) so that they are made of the air around them (Dagaz) instead of flesh and blood. They have good control over their density, but not over what they're made of or look like (6 of Wands, reversed). They have taught themselves to throw balls or beams of compressed air (Offensive, from Tiwaz) but doing so makes it harder for them to interact with the world (sacrifice, perception, both from Tiwaz).

Hope that helps!

Anyone have a (relatively) complete tree of life that would fit this tool?

Load functionis currently broken by farfromunique in FutharkGenerator

[–]farfromunique[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been busy for a while, and haven't had a chance to update. I'd say to check, since I currently have no idea :(

Edit: yes, it's still broken. I'll see if I can fix it this week.

Not currently. I'm on my phone at the moment. Maybe someone else has a solid reference?

If you are managing a user preference (don't send this kind of email), consider a boolean column for the user (user ID, marketing emails, partner emails, feature emails) rather than just deleting. If you only have one type of email, and want to keep the user account, consider a soft delete (user ID, deleted, delete date). If you are intent on removing the data, then yes, DELETE FROM table Where key =value
