I’m curious if this will improve DLC mismatches. For example, I’ve purchased most of the map DLCs for Euro & American Truck Simulator, but my wife only purchased the base game.

By memory she previously could access all of the DLC via library sharing until she purchased it, then she could only access the base game and not the shared DLC. It’s probably cleanest to keep it that way since you never know how different games handle DLC being activated and de-activated within an existing save, but it would be nice to not punish someone for playing a game with DLC via library sharing then purchasing the game for themselves and buying DLC later

Or just install Tailscale which makes it even easier and is free for like 3 computers.

Free for 100 devices! You can legit install it on every device virtual and physical device in your home and maybe run out of devices for the free plan. Right now I use it to secure the connection between my VPS proxy and my Minecraft server, as duct tape fixing some network fuckery, and as my primary means of connecting to services inside and outside of my LAN

He’s also the owner of the company which builds and operates the only current domestic launch vehicle certified to carry humans to the space station.

The only other certified launch vehicle in the world is built and operated by Roscosmos - owned and operated by a dictator who’s currently trying to annex another nation in the first war in Europe in decades

Except you see she didn’t give birth to them so she’s not a mother

I shit you not, I’ve seen moms in mom groups making arguments like that about C-Sections, so it’s not much of a leap to expect Republicans to make similarly disgusting statements

I encountered a couple of highways recently in Illinois recently where they clearly set the speed limit to the highway number (highways 30 and 40 by memory)

i noticed both of the ethernet lights were on and blinking

So usually one of the lights on the port indicates the link state (up/down and if its at full speed or a reduced speed) and the other light indicates data flow. Both lights blinking suggests either a really shoddy link state or an unusual implementation of status lights on the port. Do both lights blink while its booted and actively transferring a large file? Can you find documentation of how your device implements the indicator LEDs? (I can’t tell if that’s a dongle or a port on your computer)

If the power cord is plugged in but the computer is shutdown, and the light is still on, then that means the network adapter supports WoL or OOB management and must stay on for that reason

Also worth noting that Windows is especially bad about actually shutting down when you tell it to shut down because something something fastboot. I’ve seen similar inconsistently on Linux but I strongly suspect that to be more edgecases with specific hardware and my install.

The lights are blinking because broadcasts packets from other devices on your LAN are sent to every device. This is normal and expected behavior.

Just building off of this, modern computers are chatty as heck and there’s just constantly little bits of chatter spamming out on LANs. This is normal and expected behavior

The EFF had a handy explainer a couple of years ago on basically that subject:

https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2022/12/user-generated-content-and-fediverse-legal-primer

Child Sexual Abuse Material (CSAM): Service providers are required to report any CSAM on their servers to the CyberTipline operated by the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children (NCMEC), a private, nonprofit organization established by the U.S. Congress, and can be criminally prosecuted for knowingly facilitating its distribution. NCMEC shares those reports with law enforcement. However, you are not required to affirmatively monitor your instance for CSAM.

By my understanding, you don’t have to setup proactive monitoring for CSAM being federated in, but if you specifically spot CSAM or it is reported to you then you are legally obligated to report it

Y’know what, I stand corrected

I’ve said it before I’ll say it again, mandate that companies offer remote work options to office workers. We’ve already seen the positive impacts that has on people, businesses and the environment. Its the easiest freaking solution.

About a month ago I got a dozen for $3 from a neighbor. Delicious!

For public facing only use key based authentication. Passwords have too much risk associated for public facing ssh

My niece attends school in a town with a population of less than 5k and even there she learned all about various different forms of sexuality and romantic interest just through conversations on the bus and was not only accepted but able to explore herself

I’m guilty of 8am yardwork, but mostly mowing in the hottest part of summer at the coolest part of the day. I’m also guilty of 8pm yardwork when it’s just the only time I can find to get it done. I only mow once every 2-4 weeks depending on how much my grass has grown, so I figure that balances it out somewhat

The Sims 2 had wonderful keyboard shortcuts for toggling walls and jumping between floors via Home and End and Page up and Page Down respectively and this was carried through to The Sims 4

The state university in the town I live in has a policy that freshmen must live in the dorms unless they already live within city limits (small college town, so the university literally has a student body of about 1/2 the permanent residents of the town)

What is it with these schools and not just using WPA Enterprise? They already hand out an email to every student so it makes it dead simple to deactivate the account’s PSK upon terming the student

About a decade ago I was playing a game on Linux and the game crashed and took the entire DE with it. So I went to a different tty and started a fresh x desktop session and started playing again until the game crashed again (I was running a bunch of mods so it would crash every couple of hours or so) and still didn’t feel like rebooting so I went to yet another tty and started yet another x desktop session. I did this about 3 times in total before I finally went “I should probably actually reboot because this has to be making a bigger mess of things”
