Lately there's been a string of articles crying that we all need to "make the internet weird again": noemamag.com/we-need-to-rew… Meanwhile, say something slightly controversial and a mob will try to get you fired or worse. Or, say "7 Days to Die" on Youtube and get demonetized.
Spent yesterday getting Drogon (github.com/drogonframewor…) to compile on Windows and they recommended this pretty nice C++ package manager called conan: conan.io Worked surprisingly well considering it's C++ on Windows which is an absolute nightmare.
I spent the last two days trying to figure out why Datarhei Restreamer had significant audio issues only when streaming to Youtube. After a lot of trial and error I figured out that it's a regression from version 2.8.0 and wrote this bug report: github.com/datarhei/restr……
Can anyone explain to me why Docker is such a raging pile or unmitigated garbage? I'm now at a point where--after reinstalling a simple piece of software one time--I have to _completely erase my Linux box to fix docker_. That's not all: 1. Do you want to get a list of tags for…
Can't figure out what your ipv6 address actually is because Linux is next to useless and lists seemingly random addresses all named "inet6" on the same interface? curl v6.ident.me You're welcome.
This is an amazing video by Pyott Designs where he goes from a concept of "A game controller with a trackball mouse built in" to a working very nice prototype: youtube.com/watch?v=Ug06dh… He shows every step in the process, but it's edited very well so as to not be boring.
If you've got a decent GPU you should play with me.meshcapade.com It takes Metahumans+Maximo and makes it easy to play with 3D humanoids doing motion. On my Mac it runs pretty poorly but that machine's GPU is pretty bad.
The hilarious thing about the xz/liblzma hack in Debian is I was _just_ about to install Debian on a new server and start migrating to it. Now I have to either wait until they've removed it, which may take forever since only Debian put it in systemd apparently?
PSA: There is a very legit actual backdoor planted into the xz/liblzma project by a member of the project: openwall.com/lists/oss-secu… Affected versions seem to be 5.6.0 > and on Debian it's been added into systemd and/or sshd. More info: 1. The linked page in this tweet links…
Boston Friends! I have a friend who wants to visit Boston for a few days and needs to know the best area to get a hotel and best restaurants to hit. Either general areas or hotel recommendations would be great. Links to restaurants or just names are good too.
In Instagram if you accidentally swipe up in the middle of the screen--because that's also how you scroll--it'll go into "vanish mode." All your messages seem to disappear and there's no indication on how undo it. That's what trillions of dollars buys you I guess.
Back to the drawing board on this setup my friends. I _thought_ the Youtube webcam streaming support was fine, but the actual recording and stream from YT was total garbage. 20fps with what sounds like 8k audio. The recorded stream is 30fps with 192k audio.

The new livestream setup is working out very well. Did a stupid test last night with a video game and was able to stream to Youtube and Twitch with consolidated chat from those plus Discord and with no errors. Here's a list of the software/hardware I'm using to do it: 1.…
I'm switching to streaming to the big companies after giving up on doing it myself. It's weird but I'm going to play a video game on Youtube and Twitch, and you can watch on learncodethehardway.com/client/#/live/… Come test it with me. No need to subscribe, and thanks in advance.
Recently @CapcomUSA_ released Dragon's Dogma 2 and it has terrible performance on PC. They claim it's because of NPCs eating CPU, but turns out on PC they forgot or failed to properly link the DLSS library into the game: ign.com/articles/drago… I have a few predictions on this:…
A new study publishing the journal "Nature Metabolism" says I'm going to live forever: nature.com/articles/s4225… Trigonelline is a compound in coffee that reduces age related muscle decline, and based on how much coffee I drink this is me at age 90:
I want you to contemplate something: To use AirDrop in my own home between my phone and my desktop, Apple requires me to....sign into iCloud. We seriously need a law that says no OS can require a user be logged in to use features that are local only. Microsoft also does this.
An hilarious escort mission in Dragons Dogma (1). I had to escort this girl Selene to a healing spring and it did not go well. Thankfully the multiverse exists in this game.

@lzsthw @chrispian Little addition to 7 from my experience working with enterprise business applications: To that generator of pseudorandom data used for testing, add sometimes leading and/or trailling whitespaces, non-ascii characters (for example japanese UTF-8) and control characters. 1/2⏬

@lzsthw Often both? I'm frequently asked to integrate systems together, figure out how to pull data out of a system and report on it, sync data between two different platforms and in most cases I have no familiarity with the data schemas I'm working with. Notebooks help rapidly iterate.
