  • Autopsy finds Cuban immigrant in ICE custody died of homicide due to asphyxia

    Jump

  • Immigration and Customs Enforcement said the 55-year-old father of four was attempting suicide and the staff tried to save him.

    ...save him...

  • Ghostship, a Super Mario 64 PC port, released for Linux

    Jump

  • Prerequisites

    Those look like build prerequisites. Many decomp projects do not need original game assets at build time, just runtime.

    and after that...

    cdpath and diskpath registry keys [...] point to the correct location for the asset files

    I read this as another implication that original game files are required. Otherwise, why would you need a registry key telling the new game engine where to look for assets? The /assets file in the git repo contains only 3 pngs of icon images. There's no way they've secretly bundled a whole game's worth of models and textures in the codebase.

  • Ghostship, a Super Mario 64 PC port, released for Linux

    Jump

  • Implication from the readme is that the lego island decomp does indeed need original assets:

    The simplest way to use the recompiled binaries is to swap the original executables (ISLE.EXE, LEGO1.DLL, and CONFIG.EXE) in LEGO Island's installation directory for the ones that you've built from this source code.

  • In the US it's up to individual states to set laws that require breaks.

  • MAYDAY from the airwaves: Belarus begins a death penalty purge of radio amateurs

    Jump

  • Fucking insane, and very sad.

    I recall that during the cold war, US intelligence agencies were worried that American hams might be sending secrets to amateurs in the USSR. They commissioned some report and the findings were basically "The only thing these nerds talk about are signal reports and radio equipment".

  • I was there...

    Jump

  • I'm in the habit of shredding everything.

    a) It's so fun to watch a stack of mailers turn into confetti

    b) Deniability. If I only shred important documents, then all my shredded trash is now important. If I shred everything, nobody knows how much of it is important.

    Mostly A though. I'm not yet worried about someone trying to reconstruct my shredded trash.

  • Configuring 2 network devices to be in the same network using systemd-networkd

    Jump

  • Seconding the other user's recommendation of an unmanaged switch.

    If your goal is to add more ethernet devices to your network, adding an unmanaged switch to your router is the simplest way to do it. Anything plugged into the switch will operate on the same network as your router and, as a pure hardware solution, it will never need software maintenance.

    If your goal is to learn how to build a router-oriented linux install from scratch, then go ahead with your original plan.

  • Lovecraftian Physics

    Jump

  • I watched a documentary about that: Into Eternity

    What I thought was interesting about the film was the balance between entertaining a fantastical vision of some future explorer stumbling across the radioactive site, and the mundanity of most of the actual work.

    One of the engineers said something like: "When we seal this up with so much concrete, there's no way you're getting in here without machinery. We should be more concerned about a future civilization that comes back here for radioactive materials when they've exhausted all other natural sources"

    And then there's a whole section of the film about rules-lawyering the storage site. The dump was chartered by the Finish government to seal waste "for all time", and the engineers were mad that nothing is truly permanent.

  • What do we call the career bureaucrats who remained working in Nazi Germany?

    Jump

  • A good friend of mine is quitting their (once) dream fed job, counting down the remainder until their last day. They work for the government to enforce engineering safety standards, but can no longer stomach the gutting of safety regulations that their department manages. Upon raising ethical concerns, they got dragged into a room with lawyers who relayed a parable about ethics. The lesson was: Be "a good soldier" and ignore safety regulations if you're told to do so.

    I go to work everyday and feel like a mail clerk in the Death Star

  • Ironic

    Jump

  • Pedantry:

    I can buy all the drinks I want at a bar. I'm just not allowed to consume them myself.

    No bar is going to eject someone just because they're buying drinks for other people.

  • safe as fuck

    Jump

  • Problem is that if you use white text on dark background, the bugs will be attracted to your code.

    Meanwhile, when I use dark text on a white background, the bugs are only attracted to whitespace. Easily removed with a linter.

  • Blinded by the light

    Jump

  • Solarized gang rise up!

    If I don't want to be blinded by my screen, I either turn the monitor brightness down or the ambient lighting up.

  • [Question] JS8Call CB SSB Bandwidth?

    Jump

  • Does this mean it should be possible to have 30 simultaneous JS8Call transmissions on a single SSB CB channel?

    Yes. If you play around with JS8Call, you'll notice that the UI picks a frequency offset from the SSB band and parks itself there. If you move the offset frequency to be near other traffic, the messages from nearby offsets will auto-populate in the yellow text box.

    Do people have to transmit after each other or can they transmit at the same time while being spaced out within the the same channel?

    Data frames are synchronized to 15 second time windows (I think). You can transmit during the same window as anyone else, as long as you're not both on the same frequency offset.

  • I appreciate that the definition of the does not contain the word the.

  • A new Polymarket account bet $30K on Maduro's capture just hours before Trump's announcement, renewing questions on insider information in prediction markets

    Jump

  • Protos reporting on the bet indicates that this unknown person had been building a position since December. The list of people who knew so far in advance must be smaller.

  • New York teachers stunned to learn some students can’t read time on old clocks after phone ban comes into play

    Jump

  • I like analog clocks because they're usually more decorative than digital clocks. If I'm going to hang a clock in a room (and I will, because I hate not knowing what time it is) then chances are high that I'll get some cool artsy analog.

  • A collection of easy-to-use tools developed by a radio amateur for use by anybody with an interest in designing and building their own lightweight portable wire antennas for the HF amateur bands.

    Jump

  • These are really cool! I've been meaning to get a 6m antenna ever since I got my IC-705. Now that this page has taught me about the hentenna, I think I might build one.

  • Why Does The Seahorse Emoji Drive ChatGPT Insane?

    Jump

  • Not sure if you're making a joke, but that's also the conclusion of this video:

    ChatGPT was trained on mandela-effect data (reddit posts) talking about emojis that don't really exist. When asked about these specific emojis, its text prediction is primed to answer that they exist, but it cannot substatiate that prediction by outputting the non-existing emoji.

  • Midnight is a stupid time for the clock to roll over to the next day

    Jump

  • I've heard people say "the wee hours of the night" to refer to time between midnight and dawn.

    I think one of the reasons that there's not a good word for that in English is because it's the time anyone is least likely to be awake, so there's not much reason to talk about it. And then by the time humans built enough lights to do something worthwhile at 02:00, we also had clocks and started to describe that period in reference to clock readings.
