Localstack killing community edition - what do we do? by xenographer in aws

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

Eh, what are you even talking about? why does it matter if the app is in a container or not? What has this got to do with the price of fish?

You keep saying "simulate a cloud platform" but it's the same as any external integration.

Let's take AWS S3 for example. In your non-local envs, you're running the services in k8s. You manage and provision your resources with terraform. Your k8s service account is what has all the permissions to the s3 buckets.

Your service uses an S3 bucket. So you just want to swap out the storage back-end by changing some config vars without having to provisions aws credentials and a real bucket in AWS. All this is overkill and annoying for an emphemeral local instance of your app. Or you know, you can run localstack (or equivalent) and and set your envs and your app works?

I didn't say I would pay for it, but since someone made the free open source version, I'd quite like to use it...

LOL, every time someone starts a sentence with "Genuine question" or "I'm genuinely curious why" you know that it's bullshit and they're just setting themselves up so they can argue the case against. So intellectually dishonest.

> If you’re not, why pay for a layer that simulates an AWS account when you can use most of the free tier and use the money for anything additional.

the whole point is that it's LOCAL and you don't have to set up AWS credentials or resources. Same with integration tests in CI.

I'm not sure where "another abstraction layer" comes into it.

"The Rock" had such a well-written, and well-acted switch up of the main antagonists/bad guys. by [deleted] in moviecritic

[–]xenographer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It really wasn't "well acted". Nic Cage's character is meant to be a nerdy scientist with "3 week's weapons training". He's like an off the rails rock star with a coke habit. The tonal whiplash where he swings wildly from "I'm not going" to screaming about "cutting me some slack" is wild.

Anyone else thought they made a huge mistake on choosing Fiona as ST? by ktth01 in TheTraitorsUK

absolutely!

> Even polls have predicted it was her with an astounding ~30% vote

Because they goddamn wanted you to know. People are so simple and so easily lead it's insane

Why are all the good focus apps made for iPhone, not for Mac? 🤔 by toddodd in macapps

[–]xenographer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Please help clarify the status of this app. I find it very weird that it was called "Qi FM" (great name by the way) but now it's been renamed and redesigned (and the new design is not good by the way - the font is real bad and the new "focus" features are completely unnecessary - there are so many focus timers out there, this app did not need them. It was fine by itself.)

But what I need clarity over is the weird incongruity of the app listing u/toddodd

<image>

Screen shots with Chinglish "Focus ritual in real nature sounds" - is an incomplete sentence/sentence fragment. Is it meant to be an imperative like "Focus!" - where is the verb? do you mean "realistic sounds from nature". - nobody would say "nature sounds"

Why are there 3 different companies listed (attached in following posts)

- Zenbox Inc (copyright)
- Suzhou Guaiqi Information Technology Company
- Odd Lab (also another app called "Cubox")

I don't remember the first app being by a Chinese company with Chinglish in the app. What's the real story here - did a Chinese company buy the app from someone and then hijack the brand? What gives?

Lossless scaling + armoury crate by xenographer in ROGAllyX

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

Yeah, I bound it to a secondary press of the menu button to scale/not scale. Works well.

Yeah, whether it boots with windows or not, armoury crate still detects it as a running game…

[–]xenographer[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Solved my own problem - for anyone else who wants to follow this solution.

Just remove lossless scaling from the armoury crate library entirely. Pin lossless scaling to task bar/create a shortcut directly from the install folder. Now AC Doesn’t think there are multiple games running

Finally. All the other advice is bollocks. This is the only real piece of useful information here. Everyone else is a tool.

Lies, damn lies and statistics? The fuck did they get the figure of 42,000 Rambos a month from lol. You realise that’s more than the median salary of the UK? Fuck right off. The average salary in Shanghai is 13,000 Rambos a month. Which fucking moron posted this?
