It also has that one dude on the street in saint denis who

Absolutely bonkers. Anyone remember the Technology Connections video from a while back about pinball machines?

He cracked one open to reveal the “computer” like 500 relays connected with spaghetti. Can’t imagine how much of a nightmare it must be to debug those. At this point, so much documentation and tribal knowledge is gone that this dude is basically reverse engineering each machine. Hats off.

Edit: article actually points out that he bought out all existing documents from one of the pinball companies.

Right, I cannot access my wishlist on the mobile app or mobile website.

Bruh what. I’m not trying to control anything. Just offering an objective fact that you can use how you see fit.

FYI, the S word is increasingly seen as a slur.

I wish the questions weren’t mandatory. I am only knowledgeable enough to fairly answer 5 or so of the questions.

Sheeiit I absolutely loved the first one, even only having played it for the first time last year. I was blown away at how well it holds up. I do recommend trying it if you have even a morsel of interest. Just my personal 2 cents tho.

Great question.

That is definitely one of the big caveats of BEVs over diesels. A battery on an EV can only take in so much energy. Once you hit that ceiling, the battery won’t take in any more current. Fun fact, having a super charged battery in a BEV causes all sorts of headache and can cost you performance.

You either have to switch back to service brakes or, as you mentioned, burn off energy as heat. Not sure how they’re doing it with this truck, but on other BEV loaders which I’ve worked on, we add a hydraulic valve whose only purpose is to create flow, pressure, and subsequently heat. It basically just adds a dummy load. I suspect they tapped into the dump hydraulics and added such a valve for this truck.

This game was sort of before my time. Got to experience 2 on a beefy gaming PC, so I’m hyped for the zombie mode.

As I was playing 2, I was constantly thinking to myself: “this would be a prime game to mod some zombies into”. Was surprised to hear they’d already done it in 1.

Hopefully they ported it well.

Couldn’t think of a more lemmy thread topic than one involving both Russian geopolitics and linux.

If you’re considering building your own firewall, you’ve started down a long path of homelabbing. I’d encourage you to start with a proper setup and allow yourself plenty of room to grow. You want your setup to be extensible, and the firewall is just the beginning.

I’d grab at least a 15U rack and a Dell poweredge R210. Throw in a gigabit nic and install OPNsense. You’ll have room for your switches, NAS, UPS, etc… later.

Nope. Docker doesn’t do that. That’s something else.

Sounds like your uncle did end up working for the company again, if only for an hour or day.
