The live action Super Mario Bros movie.

I know it doesn't meet the "post 2000's" rule, but I saw it for the first time a couple years ago, so I think it still counts. I don't think it was a very good Mario movie since it took A LOT of creative liberties with the source material (tbf, there wasn't a lot to work with in 1993), but as its own thing, I enjoyed it for what it was. Definitely expected a lot worse when going into it.

Xserver's code base would be a great hiding place, for sure.

I know politics can be a very contentious topic, so why don't we try and lighten the mood a bit?

The new word won't use any of the letter you've already ruled out (so if you guess "doors", for example, the new word won't have d, o, r, or s).

I know this isn't exactly a new game, but I thought I'd share it because it is, as the name implies, absurd.

I prefer subdomains, personally. A lot of services expect to run on the root of the web server, so although you can sometimes configure them to use a path, it's kind of a pain.

Also, migrating services from one server to another will be a lot easier with subdomains since all you have to do is change the A and AAAA records. I use ZeroTier for a lot of my services, and that's really nice since, even if I move a container to another machine, the container's ZeroTier IP address will stay the same, so I don't even need to update DNS. With paths, migration would involve a lot more work.

This is so sad. Can we pretend that airplanes in the night sky are like shooting stars?

What is the Krabby Patty secret formula?

Check to make sure it's not a scam (those scammers are getting crafty these days)

For me, it'd probably be teleportation. The possibilities with teleportation are basically limitless.

  • Building's on fire? Teleport in, grab the people inside, and teleport out. Easy.
  • Getting your butt kicked by a supervillain? Teleport to a gun shop, grab some weapons, and teleport back for round 2.
    • Alternatively, just grab your opponent, teleport in front of a moving train or something, let go of your opponent, and teleport away.
  • Need to defuse a bomb? No need! Just teleport the bomb to the middle of the desert. Never worry about cutting the wrong wire again!
  • Want to go to a Taylor Swift concert, but you overslept? You guessed it: just teleport! You don't even need to buy a ticket!

Admittedly, stopping time is another very useful power, but teleportation is just really hard to beat. What say you?

Favorite party games? (lemmy.sascamooch.com)

Whether it be video, board, card, etc., what are your favorite games to play with large groups of friends?

You can't go wrong with classics like Smash Bros., Mario Party, and Jackbox. I also enjoy a good game of Codenames. What are some of your suggestions?

Thanks dude. Always a helpful reminder.

I'm using a Ramnode VPS since I had some unused credit I wanted to use up. 2 vcpu, 1 GB ram, and 35 GB ssd.

Seems to be working well enough so far, but right now it's just me. If I open up to more users, I might need to upgrade, but we'll cross that bridge when we get there.

Edit: I may have spoke too soon; had to reboot the server due to low memory. Hopefully a swap file will alleviate that a bit, but I might have to upgrade the RAM on this server. We'll see.

I think it depends on the subreddit, honestly. For example, subreddits for mental health support (think r/depression, r/antidepressants, r/anxiety, etc.) should probably stay open since many would agree that supporting mental health is more important than protesting Reddit's API changes.

Then there are subs like r/sysadmin. On the one hand, it'd make sense for them to shutdown since they're a pretty tech-savvy group. On the other hand, since this sub is one of the first places sysadmins get information regarding security advisories, for example, it's arguably also important enough to stay open.

Meme subs should probably go dark, though.
