Ah, sounds like a real hootenanny.

Mewstache

Today I have no idea why one would buy a DVD over a BD

Having bought multiple DVDs (in combo packs with Blu-Ray) in the past year, it's because, unlike Blu-Ray, they actually fucking play reliably on my computer. Blu-Ray is about 50/50 IME. (Entirely the fault of the DRM -- not the physical material.)

What kind of tracking system are they using?

Thanks. I finally managed to get him this morning! Just barely won though. 23 HP left, Estus flask empty and used an Ember for healing late in the fight... One Ashen flask left. Used the Pestilent Mist strategy in combination with Sunlight Spears and Tears of Denial (which triggered twice, I think, during the fight) -- cast using Crystal Chime+5 and unequipped my sword to stay under the 70% weight threshold. 8 Estus / 7 Ashen Estus split. SL143. Ring of the Sun's First Born, Morne's Ring, Sage Ring, Estus Ring. Dragoncrest shield (for fire defense) + Crest shield (for Dark defense) that I meant to switch to for the second phase, but didn't. Armor was a random collection of whatever seemed like it might help -- most significant piece was the Winged Knight Armor; I look really goofy. Started game as Deprived and played early game as Dex fighter before switching to mostly pyromancy mid-game. Highest stat is currently 40 Faith -- I did some grinding to get there from 35 to free up a ring slot for an earlier strategy that didn't work. (The 3 guys who drop down on top of the Archive are worth about ~21K souls each with my best grinding gear equipped and are vulnerable to Rapport -- best grinding location I've found so far.)

I'm sure the guys who live and breath this game will be like "Lol, git gud scrub" but it's my first playthrough and I'm just happy I managed to pull it off at all. :p

Still getting my butt kicked by Dark Souls 3. The end is in sight though. I've already beaten the final boss of the base game, but I'm going through the DLCs. Finished Ashes, but still stuck on the M. boss fight in the Ringed City DLC. (I'm too stubborn to just skip it -- or, well, I have been so far, at least...)

Edit: I did it! Finally beat DS3!

Sweet. There's another issue open on the FHF repo where someone was questioning :latest vs :main tag so, yeah, there may be some mismatch between what they're running and what they think they are running / was originally documented...

It's up and running again, but now it seems like pagination is broken. (Going to any page and clicking "Next" at the bottom returns a "there doesn't seem to be anything here" error.)

Probably has to do with page=0 being in the URL for next page links?

Edit: Looks like line 213 of state.go should be changed to q.Set("page", strconv.Itoa(p.Page+1)) -- I tagged you in the comment I made about it on the FHF repo too but not sure how well GitHub handles @ notifications.

...and it's down again. 🫠️

Thank you. It seems to be working now.

I remember having a devil of a time trying to get mlmym and lemmy to talk to each other on my local system when I was poking around at trying to fix some issues in mlmym a few months back. (I should really get back to that at some point...) They had "https://" hard-coded in front of the domain name parameter -- and I didn't want to have to change the Go source code just to get a dev environment up. I ended up working around it by modifying my hosts file (to add a .INTERNAL domain), ran things under podman with host networking, configured Apache on the host to reverse proxy into both containers, and set up a self-signed cert that I had to rebuild into the mlmym docker (by copying in the appropriate crt files + running update-ca-certificates via the Dockerfile). In retrospect, I probably should've just modified the code...

What was the workaround you had to implement to fix this one?

old.reddthat.com is currently not working (at time of posting this comment). Most pages show unable to retrieve site., although I did get dial tcp (an IP address):443: connect: connection refused. (where (an IP address) is an IP that I've redacted) on some pages.

Glad to hear you've got a handle on it. Thanks for the update!

I have a 1050 Ti running the 580 driver under Linux Mint; it works fine.

I'm still using DDR3 in some of my systems, so there's probably someone out there who could make use of it -- finding them may be a challenge though.

Dark Science lost me quite a while ago, but many of the old one-shots like this one still live rent-free in my head...

Is 4chan still part of the non age-restricted category? 🙃️

97 minutes

At that length, I think I'd call it a movie/film even if it's part of a TV series's progression.

If we're including Japanese anime films in general, In This Corner of the World is supposedly the longest at 168 minutes for the extended version, followed by Final Yamato at 163 minutes, and then The Disappearance of Haruhi Suzumiya at 162 minutes -- according to this list on Wikipedia.

Hmm. I've been making refried beans recently with canned black beans, butter, salt, and cumin. I wonder how they'd come out if I seasoned them more like hummus instead...

• Star Fox 64
• Star Wars: Shadows of the Empire
• The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time
• GoldenEye 007
• Super Mario 64
• Star Wars Episode I: Racer
• Star Wars: Rogue Squadron
• Perfect Dark

Is that right?
