Oh man, Ra was fantastic. I love when you learn why magic was discovered in the year it was. It took me ages to correlate the two seemingly completely separate stories going on.
I love Odysseus so much. On one hand I think it sounds amazing and would love the opportunity to play it one day.
On the other, from a technical accomplishment of volunteer work it is amazing! Just the IT work alone. Here's a video I found years ago by one of the volunteers talking about the work they put into the electronics.
Maybe someone here knows a solution. The ONLY thing keeping me on windows is that my employer uses F5/Big IP edge clients. I cannot find a Linux client that can also handle Web SSO. Does anyone have any Linux experience with this?
From the littlei know from a breath holding workshop I did awhile ago (for trying to get into freediving) it's the carbon dioxide build up in our blood that gives us the urge to breath, and not the lack of oxygen. If this method allowed for the removal of carbon dioxide from the blood then holding your breath might not even be discomforting.
I was kinda similar when I first started using it. I watched heaps of videos and had so many plugins installed but I was never really sure if I was doing it "right". Then one day I got annoyed and uninstalled every plugin and just went back to basics. I only reach for plugins when I feel something is missing, but honestly the only plugins I use are Style Settings which let's me customize the theme a bit more and Calendar so I can have... well... a calendar.
I think the real power of it is the fact you can extend as much, or as little as you want!
I know technology has come a long way, but it is amazing to me that they can fly two hunks of metal through space and align their positions down to a millimetre, while being a footy field and a half apart.
I wouldn't even know where to begin to tackle a problem like that.
Oh wow that's neat! I honestly didn't think of using chunks instead of a single line and the result looks pretty good.
I love the fact the top (or first?) comment is by dllu, and looking on their webpage I saw the tram photo from Wikipedia! It's cool to see the photographer talking about their work. I think about that tram photo so much.
I love line scan cameras. Wikipedia has an awesome photo of a tram taken with a line scan camera on the relevant wiki page[1].
I've just moved to a house with a train line track out front. I want to see if I can use a normal camera to emulate a line scan camera. I have tried with a few random YouTube videos I found [2].
I think the biggest issue I face is that there simply isn't the frame rate in most camera's to get a nicely detailed line scan effect.
I remember years ago seeing a prerelease version of one of the wolverine movies. As the CGI models were still grayscale, it was cool to see at what points the fights were actors and what points it was CGI.
Odysseus is the one of the few things to get me truly excited an quite some time. I will most likely never be able to attend one but by god I would love too.
I want to try get involved in the local event scene to get some experience. I think the only way I will get to experience something like Odysseus it is to run my own.
Man, there is no way I can read this. I got choked up just reading the titles of the blog posts, knowing what was coming.
I remember being younger and not being emotionally bothered by anything. Yet as I get older I am able to relate to so much more and everything hits so much harder because of it.
Yeah, I made a mistake with my config. I had setup SWAG, with Authelia (i think?). Got password login working with 2fa. But my dumbass didn't realize I had left ports open. Logged in one day to find a terminal open with a message from someone who found my instance and got in. Called me stupid (I mean they're not wrong) and all kinds of things and deleted everything from my home drive to "teach me a lesson". Lesson painfully learnt.
But before that happened Webtop was amazing! I had Obsidian setup so I could have access on any computer. It felt great having "my" computer anywhere I went. The only reason I don't have it set up is because I made the mistake of closing my free teir oracle cloud thinking I could spin up a fresh new instance and since then I haven't been able to get the free teir again.
This is awesome. Many years ago I tried making an Android app for uni that would help you point your phone at the star you selected. The maths for that was insane and way over my head, I can only imagine that satellites would be much harder.
