What a shit article.

He sometimes gets downvoted for it.

Rightfully so.

To be fair to HL2: just like the first game, it was very technologically advanced for the time and the focus was clearly on making something novel and groundbreaking. Poor performance on release is still a legitimate criticism, but there are far worse offenders out there that don’t have the excuse of pushing the technical boundaries of a medium.

What is the benefit of specifically doing that in init?

What’s the alternative?

Also who loves systemd-resolved?

I don’t think I will ever love anything DNS-related, but it’s still the best solution I’ve used for name resolution on a system with many interfaces.

Most non-systemd users are either contrarians or people who don’t want to switch their workflow from some other system that they already know perfectly.

I will always welcome alternative systems on principle alone, but at this point there is not much need for linux “consumers” to consider anything else (unless their distro doesn’t ship with systemd of course).

You should. It’s very entertaining and probably the greatest animation showcase from madhouse.

Bild is a highly controversial, sensationalist shitrag whose closest analogue is The Sun. That doesn’t really make it better, given its popularity and influence, but it’s still important context information.

Zum Glück sind die meisten Flughäfen zu Fuß bequem erreichbar.

1. Set lower bound by counting how many are visible in the photo
2. Grow disinterested
3. Guess some number above the result from step 1

Looks like a pretty superficial canyon to me.

I’m a big fan of this post-outro gag.

wait… Are you telling me to set DNS redirects on all my local devices? Yeah, that’ll work, but why the even…

What do you mean by that? I’m pretty sure people are telling you to run a DNS server and set up entries for any clients you want to regularly connect to.

with only the fd part being the same for all intranets

Why?

It’s incredibly surprising that neglecting infrastructure investments for a mere few decades would have such an effect.

Who pissed in your cereal this morning?

No. It’s important to me that people realize why they shouldn’t blindly trust a blanket statement about the safety of tap water. I’m expecting even the most impatient readers (like you, apparently) to digest that whole extra sentence. Sue me.

In most places it’s fine, in many places it’s superior to bottled water, in some places it’s a health hazard. Tourists should always do some basic research beforehand.

Sounds like someone is trying to get randomly selected for a cavity search.

I wasn’t sure what to expect after the production team told people that episode 5 would show them something they’ve never seen before, but heavy use of mixed media claymation, what must be a new record of simultaneous split-screen footage and experimental animation techniques to focus on various details of a giant animated shot surprised me either way. I’m not sure if this episode will work for everyone, but it’s honestly so technically impressive that you have to watch it. I’m sure that the staff had fun working on this, even with the amount of work it must have been.

It’s the opposite for me. I’ve enjoyed each Episode more than the previous one, with the exception of some standout gags - like the yakisoba bag incident, which is a master class in direction, animation, setup and timing. It’s probably one of my favorite animated scenes ever.
