GOG for offline games, Steam games that are online multiplayer or can benefit from cloud saves.

For me what made a huge difference was adding acid, specially for stews. A hearty splash of vinegar or soy sauce while stewing, or even a dash of lime just before serving takes it from "meh" to "seconds please!".

There was a period when game music had some really memorable metal. Another one that always stuck with me was the Mechwarrior 2: Mercenaries soundtrack.

Donwside to 2: Your VM becomes harder to move between hardware, you lose snapshotting capabilities from a copy-on-write image.

5 is flexible, but has limitations. For example you wouldn't want to run databases on NFS volumes.

If initialization time is the only problem with 4, you could create several smaller images on the disk. Create the first one, initialize the VM and set up an LVM volume on it, then start creating more volumes and extend the LVM volume.

What REALLY irks me is that the gboard keyboard on Android is context-sensitive. No, I don't want to have a shortcut for ".com" when long-pressing the period key while typing an address, I want to type a fscking dash!

Right?!! Consider this - if you replace the scroll wheel with two buttons, which one would you press to scroll down?

SO: asks a yes/no question

Me: elaborates first for 5 minutes, forgets to say yes or no

No. What's terrifying and dystopian is that the industry has been turning a blind eye to abusive behavior for so long that deplatforming becomes necessary.

I've had acquaintances waste away trying to delay cancer death. Hospice is not fun, so I'd rather go out on my own terms.

Plus, any kind of money making scheme I'd think of is likely going to end up like the "aim for the bushes" scene in The Other Guys.

Monitoring and observability tools commit the cardinal sin of tricking people into thinking monitoring is an easy problem. It is very simple to monitor a small application or service. Almost none of those approaches scale.

 

This release brings two significant new features: a config-driven import workflow and check blocks. Config-driven import is a new declarative workflow to add existing resources into Terraform state and solves the limitations of the existing import command. Checks are a new way to perform functional validation of provisioned infrastructure to ensure the real world matches expectations.
