So I joined Stacker.news a few weeks ago. It’s like HackerNews if you consider a hot air balloon to rival a MiG-35 fighter jet.
And it turned out to be exactly what I expected.

In-reply-to » (#g4retha) That FAT12 implementation is very naive and unoptimized. You can see in this video that it takes about 7 seconds to copy a ~10 kB file: https://movq.de/v/fbf2b90ce1/los86-fat12-copy.mp4 🥴 I kind of like that, though, because it feels a little bit like an old machine. 😅🤪

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Yeah I have to admit I don’t know nearly enough about how the Linux Kernel works™ much here. I’m quite sure there’s a lot under the covers that we just don’t really fully appreciate 🤣

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Ahh so you lack some kind of an open() syscall to hold some state for the open file, i.e: a “file descriptor”? 🤔

In-reply-to » (#oxk5yoq) @prologic It's hosted at home on an computer I didn’t use anymore. It worked well for a few months, and since maybe the beginning of December, it begun to be very slow. But like I said, I have no time for that now, but if I have questions when I’ll look, I’ll think of you 😅 (but I was thinking about installing a new OS before these problems, I may just do that).

@emmanuel@wald.ovh You’re welcome! 😇

In-reply-to » So... Been a while since I've done this... But on macOS the best way to rip DVD(s) now is to 1) Use MakeMKV to backup the DVD disk and decrypt it 2) Use Handbrake to re-encode the backed up DVD disk into something more reasonable 3) Put it on a NAS or Media Server.

The inconvenience of owning your own media content is such a pain 🤦‍♂️ And no, streaming services are just awful for two main reasons, either a) The content you want isn’t on your favourite streaming service or b) Your favourite content disappears.

@emmanuel@wald.ovh Btw I already figured out why accessing your web server is slow:

$ host wald.ovh
wald.ovh has address 86.243.228.45
wald.ovh has address 90.19.202.229

wald.ovh has 2 IPv4 addresses, one of which is dead and doesn’t respond.. That’s why accessing your website is so slow as depending on client and browser behaviors one of two things may happen 1) a random IP is chosen and ½ the time the wrong one is picked or 2) both are tried in some random order and ½ the time its slow because the broken one is picked.

If you don’t know what 86.243.228.45 is, or it’s a dead backup server or something, I’d suggest you remove this from the domain record.

In-reply-to » (#oxk5yoq) @prologic Thanks ☺️. I simply used the favicon of my website, to see if that works, and it look like it does! twtxt extensions are quite easy to use! You all did a great job.

@emmanuel@wald.ovh Thanks! We all worked hard on these extensions to try to turn Twtxt into something a bit more let’s say useable or “user friendly” 🤣 (without breaking things too much of course!)

In-reply-to » @prologic, do you run a Minecraft server for your children? If so, which one?

@mckinley@twtxt.net I honestly don’t really know how to do this is the problem. I’d love it if I could setup a Minecraft server for my kids and they could play without a Microsoft (silly) Live account 🤣 (seriously fuck Microsoft, they can go to hell!)

In-reply-to » @prologic, do you run a Minecraft server for your children? If so, which one?

@prologic@twtxt.net This is the original Java Edition which is only for PC and doesn’t use Xbox Live, though you do need to use a Microsoft account to play it legitimately and join most servers. There is another version, Bedrock Edition, which is on consoles and phones as well and it uses Xbox Live.

On Bedrock, you can just invite another player into your world, but there are dedicated servers as well and they’re relatively easy to host.

In-reply-to » @prologic, do you run a Minecraft server for your children? If so, which one?

@bender@twtxt.net I have used https://docker-minecraft-server.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ for a group of friends. I like it because the server can be configured entirely using environment variables in your compose file. The only exception as far as I can tell is configuration for any plugins or mods you install. Version, server type (vanilla, paper, etc), Java options, ops, whitelist, anything in server.properties, it’s all in the environment variables.

I’ve also heard good things about https://craftycontrol.com/ if you want a Web UI.
