My synology box is 8 years old now and still getting patches. I would actually buy it again. Good work.

New Brunswick: billionaire fiefdom.

They have good flights but they do make a lot of noise at the waterfront. The smell of avgas is overwhelming, too. Nothing against them, it’s unavoidable, but I’m looking forward to their electric Beaver plane.

Air North is pretty good so far, but no frills and I don’t know if they do long hauls.

Most package managers store md5sums. A few times I’ve used that to validate package binaries. I’m not sure what tool you’d use for it, since I always just whip up a bash one-liner for it.

yeah, I haven’t had issues getting a webcam to work in years, just plug and go

That would be a very interesting virus.

I’ve been using rspamd for a while. It may be extensible to do token based classification like you want but it may take some work.

That whole place is a wasted opportunity for a pedestrian zone. It would be so nice if they’d kept the temporary tram line from the Olympics and banned personal vehicles.

That’s fair, I pictured it as more a home system.

That said though:

Suppose this thing succeeds wildly. It sells a hundred million copies, they become a world-bestriding colossus.

It’s now a competitor to Microsoft, running Microsoft software.

That’s not a good place to be. I think this thing is dead as a concept.

I have crowdsec on a bunch of servers. It’s great and I love that I’m feeding my data to the swarm.

I stopped playing WoW literally because as a tank, people get shitty about it if you don’t pull CONTINUOUSLY. Like give a guy a break to breathe or pee.

I don’t even have a licence. I’d take it. Those gave pretty okay resale value. ^_-

Great, but can you mass produce them.

hey shutup >_>

Depends on what you mean by “better”. Linux respects my privacy, and that makes it “better”. Running some random new game is a secondary concern for me. I was fine with xgalaga in 2000, I was fine with WoW in 2005, fine with Minecraft in 2010, and the selection today is bonkers.

Yeah, I suppose you’re right, I overstated it.

The Epic games launcher is total trash on Linux. I know we’re a small chunk of the market, but Valve has bought a lot of loyalty from me for their work there.

Valve has pretty much singlehandedly prevented Microsoft from using their monopoly to take over gaming. Effectively they’re a monopoly themselves, but it’s better than the alternative. If Valve is dependent on Windows, Microsoft has some major points of leverage. Their support of Linux is good for everyone, not just us. In an alternate universe, Valve is dead and Microsoft is skimming off 30% of every game sold by now.

!thelongdark@lemmy.ca, which put out a new content patch with some very nice immersion fixes this week. The new zone is very challenging.
