The fact that she blamed the Tory defeat on things like not scrapping the human rights act is spectacularly ignorant. What a useless politician she truly was. Fuckity bye.

As a parent myself now, I completely understand this behavior.

I'm shocked, shocked that outsourcing public sector contracts to the lowest bidder results in this scenario.

I mean, it would have been better if they had dropped their ties with the weapons companies.

I cant help but feel this is some sort of password reset question farming...

Anyway,

ZX BASIC SUSE Linux 6.1

Is it though?

Me. I work in video games, and I have kids.

This is exactly what I do too!

Personally, I don't expose the port externally, so I'm not sharing photos via Immich right now. I host locally and it is on a proper domain with a lets encrypt certificate, and I use Gandi Live DNS to update the dynamic IP, but my DDWRT router is set up to only allow access from internal IP addresses and my current WAN IP. It does work externally, but like you I am bit vary of it. That doesn't just apply to immich. I do the same with my Next Cloud.

Immich is great. I very much recommend it as a replacement for Google photos.

As a game studio - a developer rather than a publisher - it's very much hand to mouth. You are paid by the publishers on delivery of milestones. Milestone reviews can sometimes be subjective. You're basically the lowest link in the food chain and can be subject to a publisher's whim, which can often be a bit random depending on your external producer. Keeping such a studio open in the long term is about chasing new contacts, and any gaps between contacts is expensive because you aren't generating any income, but are having to pay wages. One or two project cancellations can easily shutter an independent developer.

In some cases studio owners may simply want out, or they might legitimately see a sale as bringing stability to the studio... Or it might just be greed. But I think it's hard to say whether a studio would have a safer long term future being independent or being sold.

Most games, especially so called Triple A games, have too much text and NPC dialog. The last thing we need is more of this crap that the developers don't even care about enough to write. How about we focus on making the gameplay good and not how we can fire more developers?

The whole Internet?

No PETSCII?!

I used to have a bean to cup machine and this is basically the only way I could do it with a single hopper. I didn't weigh it. I just used a scoop and got it down so I could eyeball the amount of beans per serving. It's not too onerous. The thing to keep in mind is that most of these machines use a timer to dose the beans, so it's not by weight. It also varies by beans, roast etc. Some beans will take longer to grinder than others. Finally I'd always aim to put slightly less beans in the hopper than the machines timer called for, to make sure there wouldn't be any left for the next cup.

Oat milk is probably the best, imho. Although don't dismiss soya milk, especially the barista versions. Personally I went cold turkey on milk in coffee years ago and never looked back. If it's lacking something without milk, try different coffee! 20 years ago I was a 100% grande latte drinker, but now I'm a freshly ground double espresso every morning.

Needs more arrows

Wait, this Sony?

Sony’s profits up thanks to rising sales of music, games, movies and sensors. https://www.msn.com/en-ie/news/national/sony-s-profits-up-thanks-to-rising-sales-of-music-games-movies-and-sensors/ar-BB1ifEUl

Personally I wish they just made a bunch more Steamworld Digs. They could keep churning those out and I would lap them up.

I have a cheap set of nylon brushes I bought specifically for this, they are a good compromise. Softer than a toothbrush and get into smaller spaces.
