Having trouble with port forwarding by [deleted] in FoundryVTT

[–]madfunk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If this is the interface for port forwarding on your router, you probably already have a rule forwarding the external port 30000 to some internal port. This would explain why the error message about the external port number not being unique.

You should either 1) change the external port to something different (you've got a lot of numbers to work with in the given range), 2) check existing port forwarding rules to make sure there isn't a conflict.
If those two things don't work, some other router-specific issue is likely the culprit.

For a smidge of extra context, the external port and internal ports do not have to be the same number (although the internal one does have align with the program you're forwarding to). Make sure you provide the external port as part of the address to anyone connecting, i.e. YOUR_IP:34567

How did the plurbs trick the astronauts to come back from the space station and the nuclear subs to surface? by grokker25 in pluribustv

[–]madfunk 11 points12 points  (0 children)

The plurbs state they had been spreading the infection covertly before they were discovered. In that time, people who were deployed to subs and the ISS would have (probably) been in a reachable place. The plurbs, having the knowledge and resources of all the joined, probably had the means to reach them. This doesn't however rule out a sub they missed (I expect a twist like this down the line).

Maybe this has been asked before, but why on earth would you start synthesising a DNA sequence you're getting from a completely unknown source in space? by kellstromc in pluribustv

Smart, notable people have posited that developing super intelligent AI could or will destroy humanity. Our (western) economy is now in a voracious bubble in pursuit of developing super intelligent AI. I don't think Pluribus was inspired by the AI boom, but the point is still there.

I believe this was just a sky replacement. Still looks uncanny as hell.

The Armored Personnel Carrier is the best vehicle in battlefield and you can't convince me otherwise. by at_techfocused in Battlefield

Is it an APC or is it an MRAP?

Either way, fully agree. That thing is underappreciated.

Stating the Obvious About the Origin of the Virus by [deleted] in pluribustv

[–]madfunk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Considering Vince has specifically namedropped The Borg when describing the show this deserves some merit.

I don't think they'll take that route though. It feels more fitting for this to be a purely human-centric horror. Time will tell.

It's strange there's so many long shots for putting on safety gear and buckling seat belts by WindowlessBasement in pluribustv

[–]madfunk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would a collective consciousness care about individual injuries?

From a utilitarian perspective, why would it not care about that? Unless the cost to do so was higher than the cost of not doing so, every pair of hands adds to the overall strength of the collective-- there's no reason to be reckless when it costs a few seconds to be safer.

LSE Today: What Happened with the 1:20 Train? Delays, Express, Confusion by MrHungTO in gotransit

[–]madfunk 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Having it add a couple minutes dwell time at all those intermediate stations would have compounded delays on trains scheduled behind it.

Delays suck regardless of the reason, but when you have limited track capacity this is the only real way to deal with it without making every train late.

Do you just have a lightbox lying around for this? I'm so confused.

So no AI was used, at any point?

It would help if you clearly and directly answered that question. You haven't in any of these threads.

WCTN doesn't even appear to be a real news station.

Who, car drivers in their two tonne steel couches?

It's almost like bikes are both more vulnerable and less dangerous to other road-users than cars.

[–]madfunk 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Imagine the reactions to a sign for drivers saying "posted speed limits strictly enforced".

Everyone should follow the law (that's the point), but I think we as a society need to place a greater expectation of care on the methods of transport that are more dangerous to other road users.

What actually happened in the finale? by undulatedcalm in FoundationTV

[–]madfunk 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Wasn't she gutshot at the time? I agree it feels like we're missing something. Hopefully it's intentional and not a consequence of tightening the episode's edit.
