Huh, I never noticed either! Cool little detail though.

Thanks for digging those up! I figured it was somewhere around that range. I’ve had it be fairly accurate within a couple feet, but I’ve also had Bluetooth proximity show much further.

Does Yunohost use containers like CasaOS? I’ve been using CasaOS for miscellaneous home stuff, but I can’t explain or justify it, I just don’t like containers.

Anyone know what kind location accuracy Bluetooth 5 currently has?

Perhaps lower the contrast a bit? Use some gray and charcoal color? Presently it looks like what I see when I have migraine aura… and I don’t intend that to be mean or anything!

I agree with you, people end up going the perceived “easy route” because of the amount of explaining and low level protocol exposure that they receive from someone who is trying to sell them on joining an ActivityPub network. And that’s just the people who are trying to encourage them to join, then there’s the people that straight up think “normal social media” people don’t belong on the fediverse because of one biased reason or another…

I was just wondering if that still existed a few days ago. Glad to know it does. I like knowing the impossible is attainable.

I feel similar. Way back when they announced a series based around Section 31 I had a whole different notion about what that would be. The fact that they made it at all and the cast and crew all seem so genuinely excited has me hopeful.

I’m actually really looking forward to this movie. I’m all for trying new things within the Star Trek universe!

It definitely does obscure the fact that the PC version includes VR itself. I’ll buy it for Quest and PC myself simply to support the studio and hopefully help make sure they produce games for a few more decades!

When they first announced the remake they didn’t mention anything about native Quest support, but they did talk about PCVR initially (which was the day I finally invested in VR hardware). I’m honestly surprised they got it running on the Quest, though it does look like they had to reduce detail by quite a lot to get to perform decently on the Quest.

For this particular game the PC version will support PCVR via Steam (and probably other ways as well).

Exactly what I was expecting! Definitely read it wrong.

Thanks for doing these, I always enjoy reading them!

It really is! I can’t wait for the future where I take a couple cheap and used M1 Mac minis and run Linux servers on them.

Yes, there absolutely is a lot of integrations and even if a consumer level SoC existed that could run arm64 macOS, it might not last long as all Apple would have to do is slightly change some aspect of their particular architecture and it would stop working. I don’t expect it to ever happen, but then again, I never expected macOS on x86 either.

Asahi, by the way, it’s astounding how far they’ve come with porting over to Apple Silicon. I haven’t had the itch strong enough yet to give it a go, but I will eventually.

An interesting and, sadly, accurate read. I will miss building my Hacks, but I knew as soon as Apple announced their switch to arm64 that the good times were over.

Maybe sometime in the future we’ll have a powerful and open arm64 system that we can somehow run Apple Silicon macOS on?

I would love it if local conventions started popping up everywhere again. I haven’t been to one since 1991.

That is just awesome! I’d love to see some of the lighting effects.

I’m curious, what is the sitemap endpoint used for generally?

Oh damn, I didn’t even catch that!

It is absolutely infuriating. It blows my mind that you can have a USB 3.2 Gen2 cable that does everything you need it to, except for the fact that it doesn’t support Power Delivery and a lot of the time you won’t even know, so if you’re sending high wattage through it there’s a real possibility you’re gonna burn some to kind up.

I know, it is a never ending source of minor comedy that “Universal” is right there in the name.

“USB 4 2.0”… someone should really do something about the incredibly goofy naming scheme.

It is more complicated than that. There are multiple different server components that make up Bluesky and its federation. The PDS (Person Data Server) is what they’re mostly talking about in that press release. You can however run all three major server components yourself and setup a completely separate network that would then federate with Bluesky proper. It’s quite different to Mastodon and other ActivityPub services (where you setup a Mastodon, Lemmy, WriteFreely, etc… instance and then federate).

Still, at present it does feel a little pointless.

Oh wow, that’s really cool! I’ll definitely take it for a spin. I’ve been thinking that something like this would be great.

From what I’ve read of this, it’s basically already done. The developer is just waiting for AT Protocol federation. I’m not sure how to feel about how it works though, it’s got some quirks because of the differences in the protocols.

I like your example there a lot, I’m going to use that in the future when I’m trying to express that notion. In the past I’ve never been able to articulate that exact concept. So thanks!

I do really hope we get several more seasons of Prodigy. When I first started watching it I thought for sure it would the Trek I wouldn’t like, but I was very wrong.

I don’t think so, not in this case. From what I understand the fact that the hardware exists on the watch is the problem. Back when something similar happened with FaceTime it was easier for Apple to deal with because they were able to fundamentally change how FaceTime works since it was entirely software.

Already own the game and already love the game, but I just wanted to say good on you fine folks for bringing the post here!

I would love to see some sort of remastered directors cut of that movie. It has definitely started showing its age, but it’s still high up on my list of great movies.

Oh, I’ve never heard that, I’ll have to look it up!

Wonderful photo! Really made me miss living in the springs.

I’m not necessarily surprised this one didn’t get a sequel, but I really wish it had!

Event Horizon (1997)

Yes, being someone’s caregiver can burn you out in ways you didn’t know you could get burnt out. I’ve had the unfortunate experience of being in two end-of-life care giver situations for immediate family in my life and I still haven’t fully realized the complete toll that has had on me.

That’s exactly what I keep thinking about, to hell with what the controlling forces say, the two options in front of those residents aren’t really options. I can’t wrap my head around what that must be like.

I miss the days of lickable Mac OS X as well. Been meaning to set up a virtual machine to run Tiger or something.

I have the same issue with solarized. I find a totally black background with light gray text to be the best for me. It’s funny, I’ve had migraines my whole life and yet I ended up working with screens and screens are an integral part of my hobbies.

I had completely forgotten about that particular method of file delivery. I wonder how many other things I don’t remember as well?

Since it came out early, does that mean there will be no new episode this coming Thursday, or will the season end earlier than it was going to?
