  • This, I’m both very rural and in an RV at the same time. Starlink is literally my only means of playing games. The only other even remotely viable option is LTE internet from something like T-Mobile but out here the towers don’t really have much capacity so I might be able to play the game fine and I might just start disconnecting Midway through a match randomly as the internet struggles to even load a basic web page

    Because jellyfin has less device compatibility, worse transcoding performance, and still struggles with media matching. Oh and still had memory leak issues.

    I have it installed, regularly update and test it, i want to ditch plex. But it’s just got to many basic issues. Anime matching in particular is rough and yes even after adjusting match sources some anime just outright fails till i manually match, matches incorrectly, won’t work either way.

    No it’s not the filenames. I use Sonarr, they are all very clean.

    Edit: i give up figuring out how to make this stay treed, fucking hate reddit/lemmy formatting



  • I do own the game but sadly I could just never get into it, I have probably thousands of hours in the factorio but the building just isn’t satisfying ironically enough in satisfactory for me.

    Especially in the early game, it takes so much fucking longer to get to Coal Power than it should I am sick and tired of being ripped out of my flow of building the factory by needing to stop and go collect some goddamn leaves manually. Even when i finally get stable power, the unlocks are just tedious annoying uninteresting and everything is constantly trying to pull me out of just focusing on building.

    The building itself can get frustrating because uneven terrain and issues with SNAP placement can mean things don’t quite line up perfectly and you have to keep trying again. That’s easily moved past tho it didn’t bother me too much in Dyson Sphere program so I can work past it.

    There’s a lot of little things I can complain about but for whatever reason the overall gameplay just did not click with me like it did in other Factory games





  • Honestly for me it’s about was the lot designed by an idiot. Large stores like Walmart and home depot are the worst offenders. If I need to park in the far out of reaches of the lot there’s never any fucking cart returns there.

    All of them are grouped up right near the fucking front of the store where it’s least needed, and then there’s nothing at the outer edges. I make sure my cart is somewhere it will not move even in strong wind, but the designers of the parking lot can go fuck themselves for not putting a cart return stall at the outer edges where it makes sense in those massive lots.

    Other stores like WinCo and costco seem to have this figured out. Cart returns at regular intervals across the entire parking lot. So no excuse not to return there



  • Jesus fucking christ. I came back to the game literally right after the nerf and i was fucking deviating enemies with the flame grenade and flame shotgun esq thing.

    Wtf is wrong with people they were bitchkng about it. Inwas on lvl 9s and basically just erasing bot drops with a single round of nade n blast. 33% is gonna be wildly overpowered… I feel like people forgot the whole fucking point of the game is to be weak, die frequently, and blast orbitals. That’s why you have so many lives ffs

    The problem is that nobody, apparently not even manufacturers anymore know how to fucking aim headlights. Headlights literally have aimer knobs and you are supposed to aim them such that they cut off just before they would blind the majority of vehicles

    I have projector LEDs and with a projector lens you can get an extremely practically knife sharp cut off and I have it literally just at the very bottom edge of most small sedan windshield lines. It’s great my headlights are bright as fuck they go all the way from the left shoulder to the right shoulder even on four lane roads but they don’t blind anybody and I’ve had friends help me test that by just kind of passing each other on the street and them saying it was fine and wasn’t bad like other people’s cars.

    At some point people started associating the height of your light with the amount of safety, it’s possible to get distance without adding height but everyone’s forgotten how that works




  • They are amazing but at the end of the day they are still humans and they can make mistakes. In the YouTube video referenced one of the C devs is heavily against rust.

    Decided to go look for CVEs from code the guy manages (Ted Ts’o) I found these

    CVE-2024-42304 — crash from undocumented function parameter invariants

    CVE-2024-40955 — out of bounds read

    CVE-2024-0775 — use-after-free

    CVE-2023-2513 — use-after-free

    CVE-2023-1252 — use-after-free

    CVE-2022-1184 — use-after-free

    CVE-2020-14314 — out of bounds read

    CVE-2019-19447 — use-after-free

    CVE-2018-10879 — use-after-free

    CVE-2018-10878 — out of bounds write

    CVE-2018-10881 — out of bounds read

    CVE-2015-8324 — null pointer dereference

    CVE-2014-8086 — race condition

    CVE-2011-2493 — call function pointer in uninitialized struct

    CVE-2009-0748 — null pointer dereference

    Do you see a pattern in the type of error here? It’s pretty much entirely memory related and right in the wheelhouse of something rust would just outright not allow short of just slapping everything into unsafe blocks.

    The Old Guard is not perfect, and they are acting as a barrier to new talent coming in. Sometimes change is good and I’m heavily in the camp that rust one of those times. Linus seems to agree as he allowed the code into the kernel which he would never do lightly or just because it’s fomo
