In the context of SKG, Minecraft seems pretty unkillable to me.
If Microsoft disappeared overnight, everyone could still play Minecraft.
I guess there is a login system, but back when I used to play MC, you could play offline with cracked copies.
I like the mighty, but not a fan of how the screen dims over time. At least, that’s the case for the one my husband bought (in 2018-19 I think).
Heads up: The batteries will eventually die on you, but if you have basic soldering skills and some patience, they’re not too hard to replace.
While I’m sure Holocaust historiography has evolved over the last 50 years since it was published, the latter half of The Twisted Road to Auschwitz: Nazi Policy towards German Jews 1933-1939 covers how among other plans to set up Jewish colonies around the world, the Nazis did cultivate relationships with Zionist groups when trying to expel Jews from Germany.
The book makes a case that, to the Nazis, the Holocaust became a “final solution” when all the other “solutions” they tried for expeling the Jews from German public life before WW2 broke out had failed (eg, the aforementioned failed colonial projects).
I’d say that Evrala’s comment has plenty of credible historical support.
The Republic in ep 1 is about to get in a war with the Trade Federation over taxes. If a group of space traders think they can win a fight against the galactic government, then maybe the economy is poor and Republic credits aren’t trusted.
I recently watched Shadow of the Vampire, which asked the question “What if Max Shreck was a real vampire during the filming of Nosferatu (1922)?”
An interesting premise, but it really bothered me that Shadow of the Vampire pretended that all of Shreck’s scenes were filmed at night. When you watch Nosferatu’s “nighttime” scenes with Count Orlock, you can clearly see him casting a daylight shadow. Afterwards, they tinted the scenes blue to simulate moonlight.
Not sure what your living situation is, but if you have the space for a grill, you can get an outdoor wok stand + propane burner for not a lot of money.
You should report this to somewhere like 404 media
You know it’s fake because the faces are showing
Popcorn + spoon is the way. Clean hands plus high throughput.
It’s just random people coming with alcohol and having fun. Doesn’t this exist in America?
I’ve seen it in a few places.
Eg: Yesterday I was boating on a river and passed a dock packed full of young people doing all that stuff.
Keep in mind that the drinking age is different between Germany and USA. Teenagers will get in trouble for public drinking, so they tend to do it in secret.
SRE:
Apparently in this context bear baiting means hunting a bear by leaving bait, not tying a bear up and betting on how many attack dogs it can kill before dying.
If you have some really flavorful dried mushrooms, save the water you used for rehydration. Makes a great soup stock.
Rehydrated or fresh, I think most people undercook their mushrooms. Even bland supermarlet cremini/portobello is greatly improved by pan frying until it gets slightly crispy and seared.
Yeah, but Paris also got to fuck the delta flyer
I do that for data I want to persist, but which I don’t care about backing up (eg caches)

I can outsource things like ddos protection to my cdn provider, but that would still be just kinda hoping I didn’t have any attackable surface I didn’t think of prelaunch.
In that case, I wonder if your money would be better spent on contracting a security review. If you’re worried about unknown attack surface, I’m not sure that funding organized crime to rent a botnet would help. Botnet operators rely on you to tell them what to attack, so you’re unlikely to discover anything new here. Better to hire a professional and get a fresh opinion.
Is this something you’re self hosting for fun, or is it some kind of business?
If you’re running web services for a business, you should look into existing load test tooling/infrastructure. Some of it can be fully managed, or other solutions might have a degree of setup involved (eg spinning up worker nodes in AWS or whatever). The hard part is designing your load test to match IRL traffic patterns, but once you have that down you can confidently answer questions about service scalability.
A load test is not a DDoS test. Load tests tell you how much legitimate traffic your services can take. DDoS consists of illegitimate traffic which may not correspond to what your web services expect.
Usually you don’t test your systems for something like a DDoS. You would instead set up DDoS protection through a CDN (content delivery network) to shield yourself and let someone else handle the logistics of blocking unwanted load. It’s a really hard problem to solve.
Depending on what you want to learn, running your own DDoS is unlikely to be very instructive. Most “DDoS as a service” networks are not going to tell their customers how anything works, they just take your bitcoin and send some traffic where you tell them.
This paragraph suggests that making a profit was intended to be easy.
As seen in Figure 3, Claude 3.5 Sonnet outperformed the human baseline in mean performance, but its variance was very high. We only have a single sample for the human baseline and therefore cannot compare variances. However, there are qualitative reasons to expect that human variance would be much lower. All models had runs where they went bankrupt. When questioned, the human stated that they estimated this would be very unlikely to happen to them, regardless of the number of samples.
Babylon 5 did it pretty well. One complete story, told across 5 seasons of 22 episodes each. Some of the episodes which I thought were filler on first watch turned out to involve critical plot elements in later seasons. I want to say seasons 2-4 were really tightly focused. Season 5 kinda slowed down, mostly because season 4 was written to be a finale in case they got canceled.
