If you use a .local domain, your device MUST ask the mDNS address (224.0.0.251 or FF02::FB) and MAY ask another DNS provider. Successful resolution without mDNS is not an intended feature but something that just happens to work sometimes. There's a reason why the user interfaces of devices like Ubiquiti gateways warn against assigning a name ending in .local to any device.
I personally have all of my locally-assigned names end with .lan, although I'm considering switching to a sub-subdomain of a domain I own (so instead of mycomputer.lan I'd have mycomputer.home.mydomain.tld). That would make the names much longer but would protect me against some asshat buying .lan as a new gTLD.
And that's one of the annoying things about snap: It's fundamentally a nice system with neat capabilities but it's spoiled by Canonical's proprietary backend.
Depends on how the war goes. Nobody uses nuclear weapons as a first response but they're always there as a reminder that if my country goes down, so does yours.
Besides, intercontinental force projection becomes a lot more complicated when your opponent has the ability, theoretical or not, to sink entire carrier groups at once.
I think it'd be more likely that Trump would get immediately kicked out of office if he actually managed to start a war with the EU. There's a limit to how stupid the GOP is willing to be for him.
Counterproductive policies that can be used to pocket some more money? Sure, why not. But a war that threatens to fuck the economy, dramatically curtail international trade, and probably hand global hegemony over to China? Too risky for too small a reward.
The most common mistake when putting together IKEA furniture is forgetting to yell at the hammer. And then people complain that it's difficult. Of course it is if you skip basic steps like that!
No, that's actually the official term for a very specific type of vehicle. It's a hybrid between a Löschgruppenfahrzeug (a multipurpose firefighting vehicle) and a Rüstwagen (which carries equipment for light non-firefighting purposes).
People who actually deal with them just say "HLF".
I don't like systemd on the meta level but I must admit that it's quite pleasant to use. So I'm not quite on the fence about it but rather of the opinion that both camps are correct in their own way.
LLMs are an instance of AI. There are many. Typically, the newest promising one is what the media will refer to as "AI" because the media don't do subtlety.
There was a time when expert systems were the one thing the media considered to be AI (and were overhyped to the point of articles wondering if they'd make jobs like general practitioners obsolete). Now it's generational neural nets. In twenty years it'll be something else.
Depends on what you're wearing. If there's a crotch zipper that's where the fart will usually go because those things often aren't gas tight. Otherwise the fart will bubble up until it finds an opening.
Latex clothing has a lot of not-quite-sexy sides to it. For instance, they tend to be rather sweaty and that sweat has to go somewhere. Prepare for wet feet.
I'm not really a fan of MMORPGs, both due to the gameplay (MMOs are grindy by nature and the hotkey-driven autocombat of most MMORPGs isn't interesting enough to sustain that for me) and because of often aggressive monetization.
I do like some MMOs in other genres, though. Path of Exile is an action RPG with drop-in multiplayer and a rudimentary built-in trading system. It's basically Diablo 3 in good. Plus, its monetization system is one of the fairest I've seen so far, with the only MTXes that offer gameplay benefits being on sale literally every other weekend.
Path of Exile 2 (currently in closed beta) is basically the same with a tweaked skill system and a soulslike dodge roll mechanic that you're expected to use. Pretty decent, a bit slower-paced than the first one.
I should also pick up Warframe again one of these days. The repetitive nature of MMOs isn't as bad when it's a mobility-focused third-person shooter. And IIRC, there's not much you can get with MTX that you can't also get through gameplay somehow. Plus, it's also a game that you can just play singleplayer if you want.
I remember a friend of mine once ordering a Double Triple Whopper and being annoyed that Burger King's definition of "double" is "with one extra patty". So he had to order a Double Double Double Triple Whopper to get the desired result.
They delivered the thing to our table together with a knife and fork. I guess ordering an unholy totem pole of meat like that gets you table service at a BK.
The other thing that was notable about it was that the three "Double"s only added three patties to the burger and nothing else. As a result this caricature of a burger was now 80% overcooked ground beef and extremely dry.
He ate half of it. We took the other half home, put it in the microwave and drowned it in ketchup, which greatly increased it's edibility. It still sucked, though.
But it's still not a backup strategy. You should always have a second partition on the server that you sync your data over to. For performance reasons this partition should be on the same RAID 0 array.
