The kbin logo not linking directly to home was probably one of my top UI gripes. I'm glad to see it get changed. Still hoping there will be an easier way to bring up the list of subscribed magazines.

I had to re-install my PWA, but it now adheres to the rotation setting on my phone. I'm using a Samsung Android phone so it may depend on the OS.

Rub some vegetable oil on it or let it sit in a shallow plate of the oil for a few minutes. Then just clean it all off with dish soap.

Think of it as kindling for a fire. It's not going to fuel the platform long term but it's probably appealing to a lot of folks right now. Hopefully it will spur engagement which will then spread to other more interesting and sustainable topics.

Sean Bean with a small one time appearance as a doomed redshirt... and he miraculously survives. Then he gives a big ol troll face to the camera before credits roll.

Are you not excited for the "Intel Core 9 1900H Mid 2023"?

How else are you going to get that 15 years of experience required for that entry level position?

Furikake and arare. The furikake for flavor and the arare for some nice variety of texture. You can find it as Hurricane popcorn all over Hawaii and I think Amazon as well at this point.

I think it's a healthy part of the growth of the Fediverse. Maybe it ends up being a good idea, maybe not. Hopefully everyone can keep an open mind and learn some lessons along the way both with successes and failures. Let's be real, if this is what kills the Fediverse then the Fediverse was doomed from the start.

This is all early days and I'm just enjoying the ride. It's really just refreshing that it's not some VC backed mega corp making these decision.

Running the hypervisors built in to unraid or truenas are certainly options but proxmox/VMware are just easier. If you're learning about virtualization, you're going to find a lot more resources for proxmox/VMware. Conversely the storage capabilities of proxmox/VMware are either severely limited in the case of VMware or just not particularly user friendly for proxmox. By virtualizing your storage OS you can get the best of both worlds for some situations. Sure, there are situations where it's a bad idea but if you've only got one machine and it has plenty of resources it can be very effective.

Heck even if the main function for the NAS is just windows shares, that full blown storage OS is going to give you redundancy, snapshots, and replication. I'd say those are pretty important even for Windows shares.

Another vote for virtualized router! I keep set a core VMs on that host where uptime is the highest priority. I've upgraded RAM, downgraded CPU, and eventually switched to an entirely new host with 0 downtime over the past few months. I'd rather not have to wait until everyone else on the network is sleeping before doing any tinkering on the hardware. It's pretty neat to be streaming some video and then live migrate the router to another physical host with 0 interruption.

The first suspension was 8 games so the repeat offense being 3x the penalty seems reasonable. Another poster mentioned that it also makes him ineligible for a lot of end of year awards. I Silver mentioning that they found additional information had everyone thinking the new stuff was worse and worth a bigger suspension.

"It's time to enshitify."

The one admirable thing about reddit leadership is how transparent they have been about the enshittification of their product. Usually companies will do some perfunctory song and dance about how great the changes are and how much users will love them. Reddit has been pretty clear that the changes will negatively effect users and that they are doing it for the money.
