I think they are referring to using the polycarbonate as the structural part of the mirror, so its optical properties aren't relevant. The rest of your points stand though.

Free to publish means it'll be filled with malware and slop. I hope they have a viable plan to deal with that.

It might be a small decision for the company, but it will be very beneficial for developers.

Not if real devs get drowned under a ton of copycat and malware apps.

Okay, good to know. Doxycycline and some antibiotics have sun sensitivity, same reason?

Edit: list of a bunch of medicines with sun sensitivity effects: https://www.fda.gov/drugs/special-features/sun-and-your-medicine

[-] [email protected] 6 points 23 hours ago

Yeah, I know, I've tried many of them :).

Its a a pretty common side effect for lots of meds though, so I didn't really see the irony. I was wondering if it was more than just a side effect.

Is sun sensitivity just a sideeffect or how the drug intrinsically works?

And why can't CloudFlare offer some way for us lowly non-AI's to prove we're human, once, for our entire web experience, versus on. every. damned. website. one. at. a. time?

So like a tracking cookie? Not a great idea for privacy, we've been there before...

Also, the reason is that if that worked, then the scrapers would just need to use a human to pass turnstile once, and then let their scraper run wild for the rest of the day, defeating the entire purpose of it.

None of this would be issue if the AI scrapers would just actually follow robots.txt, but they won't, so here we are :(

As have I, but I wouldn't say its always been no issue. But there have been known performance issues, and filesystem locking issues when dual booting (I know, not OPs concern). I think its worth a warning at least, so OP doesn't go in blind.

Linux doesn't do the drive letter thing. Instead, you have to identify the disks by their partition IDs.

When you install your OS, you'll be able to mount the disks to wherever you like. If you want, you can create directories in /mnt, like /mnt/e, /mnt/f etc. Then you can mount your disks according to those letters.

The main issue you'll run into is disk format. NTFS will work, but its poorly supported.

To get a better idea of how it works, try passing a USB disk into the VM you've created.

Could have just naturally fizzled, if they werent getting returns (victims), and the accounts were getting banned quickly, it might have just become not worth it?

This is basically the secure storage lifehack/joke. If you need to have your car securely stored for a week, speed past a camera, drop the car with the police and pay the storage fee. Its actually kinda affordable.

I think I was prescribed that once

Deadnaming surely applies to cis people who change their names as well right?

Hi All. This might not be for everyone, and is very rough around the edges, but I have written a tool to more easily test how custom addressable RGB effects work.

Simply copy the code portion of the lamba into a text file, and then build and run, and it will output on your terminal how the effect will look.

It is very rough, you need a C compiler, and a RGB/TrueColor capable terminal.

If it works for you, let me know, if it doesn't, also let me know.

I dunno if this is appropriate for this community, so mods, please delete if not.

I have been writing a screen clone in rust.

https://github.com/cameroncros/PoorMansScreen/tree/better_screen (The main branch is how I currently use it, not at all screen-like, the better_screen branch is much closer to a screen replacement.)

It all currently works fine, albeit quite simple, and I suspect not following best practices. Please talk shit about my code so I can fix that :D

For my next stage of development, I would like to use some combo of vt100 and ratatui to wrap the shell in a border, or add a menu bar at the top or bottom to make it clear when the user is inside a "screen". Does anyone have any thoughts on how to go about doing that? I am very unskilled at ratatui.

Visualizations are hard, and take time, so here is a thread to highlight the visualizations that we have found/created.

Please feel free to post your visualisations!

Those of you running behind, keep at it, but this is the leaderboard as it stands at the end of 2024.

Happy new year!

A lot lower success rate than I suspected, I guess a lot of the scoreboard times were probably legit?

Well, that was a month. Congrats everyone who has reached the end, and thanks to everyone who has contributed solutions and advice.

Sometime in January I will create a megathread for visualizations. If anyone has any other ideas, happy to hear them, otherwise, take a well earned 11 month rest until next year :D

Day 25: Code Chronicle

Megathread guidelines

  • Keep top level comments as only solutions, if you want to say something other than a solution put it in a new post. (replies to comments can be whatever)
  • You can send code in code blocks by using three backticks, the code, and then three backticks or use something such as https://topaz.github.io/paste/ if you prefer sending it through a URL

I am wondering if manual inspection is the way to go for pt2? Seems almost achievable with some formatting. Anyone been down this road?
