I would like to ask a similar question:

I very much like the “the beauty and the beast” - styled metal. That’s at least what I read online sometime what it’s called.

The mix of a male voice growling and a female voice singing melodic kinda does it for me, but so far I had very little luck finding stuff that fits, actually just a few songs.

Any recommendations?

This is likely referring to TypeScript.

TypeScript has all of these patterns, they are used very frequently and they are necessary because TypeScript tends to be interesting from time to time since its types only exist at compile time, because it compiles to JavaScript, which is a language without types.

TypeScript also allows any as a keyword, which says “I don’t know which type this is and I don’t care”, which still produces valid JavaScript. To get back to typed variables it is necessary to use typeof (or similar constructs like a type guard).

Maybe I can just post here and get a good explanation?

I have been using PopOS for a while now and I am super happy with it, but last time it tried to switch from Gnome to KDE I ended up with a black screen after boot and had to reinstall from scratch.

Does anyone have a good writeup on how to do it properly?

For me it’s 7am-3:30pm and I do all my work between 7am and the daily at 9:30am. After that it’s just meetings and bullshitting on the internet. Everyone is satisfied with my work.

Ah, yes. Another weed meme of a person who clearly never consumed any weed.

Not the original commenter, but I think it’s a good ending fitting the show. It’s a drama and it ends in drama.

Non-news.

If it happens, it happens, if it doesn’t, it doesn’t. We gain literally zero information from this article.

Konlanx ,

It shouldn’t. Boring troll attempt.

Konlanx ,

What alternative would you suggest if I just want to talk to my mates while gaming? I gave up on setting up TeamSpeak after like an hour and many crashes and errors. I was a TeamSpeak fan for many years when using windows, but on Linux I highly dislike it.

When using current reddit UI, you need to log in to “verify you are over 18”.

When using old.reddit.com you can proceed with a simple click on “Confirm over 18”.

I am so glad the shareholders got their money!

Just imagine some rich people didn’t get more rich, just stayed as rich as they were, so we could “save the planet”. Disgusting!

Konlanx ,

Being rich implies you are evil. If you were good, you would give back to the people who create your wealth.

A good person understands they are not entitled to that much money with so much bad things in the world nor need it in the first place to live a decent live.

(30,27): error TS7006: Parameter ‘fuck’ implicitly has an ‘any’ type.

Konlanx ,

This is due to the default sorter in JavaScript sorting by the string value. The reason for that is that this won’t create errors at runtime. Since JavaScript does not have types, this is the safest way of sorting.

This works:


<span style="color:#323232;">const unsorted = [1, 100000, 21, 30, 4]
</span><span style="color:#323232;">const sorted = unsorted.sort((a, b) => a - b) 
</span>

Read a book! Best way to get the brain to calm down.

That site lists my account as “Banned for Vote manipulation”.

That’s… Interesting.

Konlanx ,

Same the other way around. I (european) regularly read about “100 degrees weather” somewhere in the US and my first thought always is “damn, that’s as hot as boiling water”.

Konlanx ,

What a great post. Thank you for sharing it and all the best for you!

I have been adblocking on YouTube for as long as I remember. Personally I think it’s unusable without an adblocker. What’s the alternative? Because I am not suddenly going to pay for a platform that keeps getting worse all the time.

Konlanx ,

I like to listen to podcasts in the gym and I will interrupt my set to skip sponsors and ads. The enshittification on Spotify is particularly bad as they now play ads in addition to sponsorings for premium listeners.

Konlanx ,

Thanks for the tip, I will try that one out!

A racing game that has a very nice track builder and is very open to modding. Its focus is on the individual driver and the time they achieve on a track.

Flying for hundreds of meters, drifting under water, going at high speeds through multiple loopings, sliding on ice and so much more is totally possible with Trackmania.

Try it, the base game is free and their pricing for online services and cups is totally fine.

JS !== Java

Try Javascript some day!

  • We have truthy and falsy! Empty string or null? Yeah, that’s false!
  • Of course we can parse a string to number, but if it’s not a number it’s NaN!
  • null >= 0 is true!
  • Assign a variable with =, test type equality with == and test actual equality with ===. You will NEVER use the wrong amount of = anywhere, trust me!
  • Our default sort converts everything to string, then sorts by UTF-16 code. So yes, [1, 10, 3] is sorted and you are going to live with it.
  • True + true = 2. You know I’m right.

Try Javascript today!

Konlanx ,

It’s not. The default sorter does that, because that way it can sort pretty much anything without breaking at runtime. You can overwrite it easily, though. For the example above you could simply do it like this:

[3, 1, 10].sort((a, b) => a - b)

Returns: [1, 3, 10]

I have my own mailserver just for me and it wasn’t that complicated to be honest. I set it up with Mailcow in Docker in under a day. So far it has been stable with regular backups and updates through Lighthouse.

Maintenance comes down to 5 minutes every three months because somehow Let’s Encrypt and Mailcow don’t like each other and I have to renew the certificate manually.

NASA has a super interesting explanation about it here: svs.gsfc.nasa.gov/4709

Probes have also been taking pictures: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Far_side_of_the_Moon

I know you are joking, but it’s super interesting to me, so I wanted to share something about it.

Konlanx ,

You mean the people running big corporations and not giving a fuck about the environment, right?

Konlanx ,

Yes, just like I said.

Konlanx ,

Yes.

Konlanx ,

They are becoming smarter the further climate change progresses!

There’s tons of email providers out there. I bought a domain and rented a small VM for some learning about servers and the company provides a direct email service with the domain. Now I have unlimited mail-accounts with my own domain name and Google can fuck right off.
