This (along with basically all instances with communick news behind them) is a classic example of scaling up prematurely.

When this community is brimming with so much content that users start to “miss” posts about [thing x] because there are so many posts about [thing y], then you make offshoot communities, not before.

Using the template syntax you can start by copy/pasting the site to be migrated, and then inject sections that render using markdown syntax.

What templating languages do you know already, and are you running 11ty v3? There are some gotchas around images because (I think) the eleventy-image plugin is enabled by default.

I’ve found success running with .webc which is effectively HTML until you need it to be more.

Sorry, buddy, that game is called Tetris and it’s not even close.

Shout out to my fellow “None Backup Strategies” chaos goblins.

All of these mods were (are?) available to people willing to fork over extra cash to have their own controllers made via Xbox Design Lab.

The train in fallout 3 was just a guy with a train for a head running along a track

This one.

Here I am on 2024.7 waiting for card-mod to unfuck itself.

Scolded me for swearing at it.

“You’ll fucking know when I’m swearing at you,” was my reply to that shit the last time I gave it a spin (after it regurgitated nonsense after many prompts specifically asking for not nonsense).

Here’s the mod’s website.

Amazon SES is dirt cheap, billed per-send, you just need to bring the Everything Else with something like Mailcoach or Sendy.

Yeah, I know. I was speaking in general terms.

An eternity ago, I got really good at manually strafe-hopping in Team Fortress Classic. I got banned from a few pubs for “scripting” anyway.

I don’t like banning users because of the devices they use or the technical knowledge they have. I feel like the onus should be on the development team to make hardware or software macros impossible or unnecessary. Like, maybe the switch from left to right has a random interval that would instantly nerf a script. Or maybe the apex of a player’s jump is also a little variable or random - or deeply tied to their momentum in a weird way.

Barely noticeable changes for natural players, kryptonite to script kiddies and Mad Katz Turbo Mode, but still accessible to people with disabilities who legitimately need macros or weird hardware because they only have 2 fingers or whatever.

This can be made even simpler by installing all the repos you want to mirror as submodules of the parent directory’s git repository. Instead of many git pull or git fetch, you blast a single git submodule update --recursive --remote and go about your day.

Bonus: This has the added benefit of generating a git history for your automated process if you script in a commit message with a timestamp, making your mirrors reversible.

Buzzfeed News did not suck.

Favorite: Nintendo 3DS XL. I never would have thought a resistive touchscreen would last that long. What an absolute beating that thing took.

Dogshit: Microsoft Sidewinder Game Pad Pro (1999 edition). Motherfucker didn’t know up from left.

Or massive layoffs.

We just had a global IT meltdown because an update wasn’t vetted properly and you have the audacity to suggest this for database infrastructure.

I think it’s bad to invent new words for “stopped container”

You’re not wrong!
