  • Except we do. Canada's military isn't large, but it's quite modern. We've been a significant part of training Ukraininian forces on how to use NATO equipment. I think you're a bit confused.

    And while I don't agree with our participation, Canada hasn't been a peacekeeping corp in a long time either, having been a player in the war in Afghanistan and Syria. We've pretty consistently assisted American troops in these areas. Canada is a member of NATO, and a developer of arms and munitions as part of the indistrial military complex. We aren't reliant on an island across the ocean for our own protection.

  • Definitely a valid thing to have. Imo, as long as it provides value to you creatively or intellectually, then it's a worthwhile hobby. It sounds like you are using it as well, so that's just a bonus really.

    I'm halfway into that mindset, but got myself a bambu after fighting an Ender 3 for so long and for now at least I'm content to just have a working printer instead of a half assembled one 80% of the time. So many calibration cubes.

  • The company providing this promotion has a set budget that covers the "cost" of the giveaway. Since this is a monthly service, that budgetary constraint is likely just the value of 6 months times the number of people they feel is acceptable to lose money on in the efforts of a marketing campaign.. Once that allotment has been used, by way of people redeeming the offer, they end the promotion.

    The people who redeemed the code or whatever credit to their account is still going to get 6 months of that service. There's no threshold that has to be met in order for everyone to get it.

  • The problem is they didn't initiate the DMCA process at all, nor did the report submitted have anything to do with Copyright Infringement. They submitted a fraud/phishing report, as if the domain itself was serving or facilitating malicious content harmful to someone who visits it.. So forget the DMCA process, this was straight up just corner cutting on the part of the firm representing Funko that misrepresented the nature of the situation as a whole.

  • Because you're serving the website on a non-standard port, you will always need to provide the port in the web browser.

    That said, I don't see anything wrong here. It looks like you've got the right ports set, TCP should be correct. You may not get a ping, because ICMP is likely not enabled at the modem. When you ping, you ping the first device that's exposed to the internet, not an open server.

    Just to be sure, when you're on your phone, you're using data? If you're on wi-fi, the modem/router may not be configured to perform NAT reflection, so you won't be able to access anything via your WAN IP.

  • Was gonna say, I explicitly recalled it being the removal of the scaling algo, so if anything the current vote counts (this has possibly changed since that 2016 adjustment) are more accurate. Reddit has a massive userbase, and posts in default subs are naturally going to get upvoted substantially. There's no real viral algorithm to reddit, you just see things that are upvoted.

  • I am a Linux user. Bizarre assumption to make given my excitement over a Wayland specific Discord feature. But I don't have any actual qualms with how Discord implements its own services. Matrix just doesn't fit the bill for me. If you enjoy it, and it suits your needs then all the power to you. It just isn't what works for me.

  • Not if I want calling, video chat, screen sharing and role based chat rooms all in the same place. I've explored this, but it just isn't feature complete enough at the moment. I'd definitely describe myself as a Discord power user and Matrix just doesn't manage it.

  • Oh my fuck, finally. Good lord Discord, only took you eons to get that working with Wayland after you broke it.

    I get that there's other things like Discord out there, but nothing works like Discord.

  • I took this to mean University/College. I ask myself the same thing constantly now that I'm working full time. I don't know how I dedicated the constant hours to schooling and a part time job for so many years. Maybe it's just the opportunity for variety.

  • That's unfortunate to hear. Jellyfin does definitely suffer the from the problem of not having a teams developing apps under a unified banner. You can make your own, provided you're determined enough, but guidance from the core Jellyfin team is not to be expected.

  • Not an expert, but molten salt reactors are correct. MSRs are especially useful as breeder reactors, since they can actually reinvigorate older, spent fuel using more common isotopes. Thorium in particular is useful here. Waste has also been largely reduced with the better efficiency of modern reactors.

    Currently, Canada's investing in a number of small modular reactors to improve power generation capacity without the need to establish entire new nuclear zones and helps take some of the stress off the aging CANDU reactors. These in particular take advantage of the spent fuel and thorium rather than the very expensive and hard to find Uranium more typically used. There's been interest in these elsewhere too, but considering how little waste is produced by modern reactors, and the capacity for re-use, it feels pike a very good way to supplement additional wind and solar energy sources.

  • Can't speak for them, but it's very useful for interfacing with any number of smart watches/scales and more with on-device data storage. It doesn't always support things perfectly, but it's definitely good enough to prevent a need for manufactuer specific apps for the devices it does support.
