Found a blog post that gives a quick overview of how to do git via email in general: https://peter.eisentraut.org/blog/2023/05/09/how-to-submit-a-patch-by-email-2023-edition

So at least from my understanding you’d make your changes, email the contents of the patch to the maintainer, and then they’d apply it on their side, do code review, email you comments, etc. until it was in an acceptable state.

There’s also the full kernel development wiki that goes into all the specifics: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/v4.16/process/howto.html

(I never got through the whole thing)

I’ll also throw out: aging infrastructure, build systems, coding practices, etc.

I looked into contributing to the kernel - it’s already an uphill battle to understand such a large, complex piece of software written almost entirely in C - but then you also need to subscribe to busy mailing lists and contribute code via email, something I’ve never done at 30 and I’m betting most of the younger generation doesn’t even know is possible. I know it “works” but I’m really doubting it’s the most efficient way to be doing things in 2024 - there’s a reason so many infrastructure tools have been developed over the years.

The barriers to entry for a lot of projects is way too high, and IMO a lot of existing “grey” maintainers, somewhat understandably, have no interest in changing their processes after so much time. But if you make it too hard to contribute, no one will bother.

I’m surprised by Helldiver’s. Has there been some performance patches? I tried playing that on my deck near launch and it really struggled even at minimum settings - I can’t imagine how it would run at higher difficulties.

Artist is apparently Bruce MacKinnon.

Wouldn’t this be the equivalent of the mob mailing their own finger?

Out of curiosity, what switch are you using for your setup?

Last time I looked, I struggled to find any brand of “home tier” router / switch that supported things like configuring vlans, etc.

Maybe I am not thinking of the access control capability of VLANs correctly (I am thinking in terms of port based iptables: port X has only incoming+established and no outgoing for example).

I think of it like this: grouping several physical switch ports together into a private network, effectively like each group of ports is it’s own isolated switch. I assume there are routers which allows you to assign vlans to different Wi-Fi access points as well, so it doesn’t need to be literally physical.

Obviously the benefits of vlans over something actually physical is that you can have as many as you like, and there are ways to trunk the data if one client needs access to multiple vlans at once.

In your setup, you may or may not benefit, organizationally. Obviously other commenters have pointed out some of the security benefits. If you were using vlans I think you’d have at a minimum a private and public vlan, separating out the items that don’t need Internet access from the Internet at all. Your server would probably need access to both vlans in that scenario. But certainly as you say, you can probably accomplish a lot of this without vlans, if you can aggressively setup your firewall rules. The benefit of vlans is you would only really need to setup firewall rules on whatever vlan(s) have Internet access.

I loved the original Hades, but I played it after it left Early Access.

It’s going to be really hard to resist jumping in early with Hades II.

So maybe you’ve heard something I haven’t, according to this timeline, there was only 2-3 minutes between when the ship issued a mayday and the bridge collapsed: https://www.cbsnews.com/news/francis-scott-key-bridge-collapse-timeline-911-call-dali-cargo-ship-mayday-maps-construction-worker-recovery/

It sounded like there was 1 police officer already stationed on either end of the bridge, so thats the only reason they were even able to close the bridge before the collapse.

In the time it took them to do that, I can’t see how there would have been time to warn them physically (it’s like a 2 mile bridge). From the article, it sounded like there was confusion about if a crew was even on the bridge. I also don’t know how often / what mechanism police can use to directly contact crews, if there even is one.

NPR News Now publishes great little 5 minute podcast digests every hour or 2 summarizing the big news items of the day / hour.

Their politics podcast and Trump’s Trials podcast are also good.

All three of these are very U.S. centric, obviously.

So I know that will make it look correct in sync, but I guess what I’m getting at is that the comment is an example that looks right in other clients but NOT in sync.

Sync should show the list correctly like other clients do.

The bullet points in my comment here render correctly in the official Lemmy frontend, but not in Sync: https://lemmy.world/comment/6271596

I’m hoping the new update will include the new “scaled” sorting option. I think it will really help support smaller communities on Lemmy if more people use it.

This was my experience as well, though I did notice that many games did not properly isolate game saves from separate steam accounts.

Tip to any devs that might read this: organize saves based on the steam account logged in, not the user of the PC (always “deck” for the steam deck) and definitely not just a single location among the game’s data.

IIRC Alaska Airlines knew the plane had issues and decided to keep flying it anyway.

So yes, it’s Boeing’s fault the plane’s door blew off, but Alaska Airlines also deserves blame for continuing to fly a plane that was reporting issues with the door hatch.

I got a bunch of board games for Christmas, and so far I’ve gotten to play:

• Jaipur - Nice little 2 player game about becoming the richest trader in the market - this one had very simple rules, and felt competitive without feeling too “mean” - both games we played were close. The “camel” system definitely keeps things interesting.
• Hues and Cues - A very simple game - you are simply trying to give word clues to get people to guess the exact color on the board - my family definitely had some fun, but we also unanimously agreed to play it only to 25 points - the board goes to 100 which would absolutely overstay its welcome. There were also issues with indoor lighting / shadows causing colors to appear different to different people.
• Coup - This one is a classic and I was so excited to play it - basically a bluffing / assassination game. My family didn’t have too much trouble learning it, though we definitely did not play optimally. It’ll be interesting to see how I feel about different player sizes - we played with the maximum player count (6), which for better and worse meant that in time you could pretty confidently learn what was in the entire draw pile. I’m definitely interested in picking up the “Reformation” expansion - I think the new card is really interesting, and the entire faction system could really shake things up for experienced groups - and it’s cool that you can add one or the other or neither, and the game still works.

I ran into the same thing. I’ve always just worked around it, but I believe I did find the solution at one point (can’t find the link now).

But if I am remembering right, I believe you need to manually create a bridge between the two networks - by default it isolates the VMs from TrueNAS itself for security reasons.

Sorry I can’t link the exact fix right now, but hopefully this will help you Google the post I found on the subject.

Simple thing, but are you sure you mounted the NFS share as NFSv4? I don’t have access to a machine to check right now, but I think it might default to mounting NFSv3, even if both sides support v4.
