  • Fully Virtualized Gaming Server?

    Jump

  • I bought a cheap used Dell R710 on Facebook marketplace for like $100 or so, as well as an ups, rack, 10g switch, etc, from various other sellers. All told, I’ve got about $500 in my server setup.

    Installed proxmox on it. It’s “free” if you don’t buy a license. You just have to put up with a little nag screen when you open the control panel but it still works 100%, much like winrar.

    Works great.

    Edit: just realized this is in c/selfhosted AND I misunderstood the post. I’m gonna leave it here just on the off chance it’s useful to somebody, but I acknowledge it’s not what you’re looking for.

  • This Fan-Favorite Candy Is Returning for the First Time in Over a Decade, Altoids Sours

    Jump

  • My wife and I got some a couple weeks ago. They’re good, but not nearly as good as they used to be.

    They’re now round instead of oval, and you can tell the molds they used are cheap, because there’s big, evident seams. The flavor is good, but a lot weaker than I remember it. Too heavy on the cream, not enough of the fruit flavor. Plus they’re like triple what they used to cost.

    Still good, but not as good as they were.

  • And in rural areas, it'll be called "skeet shooting with prizes". I know exactly what my redneck neighbors are like...

  • FWIW, I've used privacy.com a few times. Works pretty well.

  • Amazon plans to give Alexa an AI overhaul — and a monthly subscription price

  • Of course

    Jump

  • And I was making a joke about the D&D spider goddess.

    But the word is "loath," which has an accepted alternate spelling of "loth". "Lolth" is the Dungeons and Dragons spider goddess, commonly worshiped by Drow.

  • Of course

  • What? This is system programming, not web development.

    Teen rapper accidentally kills himself on social media video after pointing gun at his head and pulling trigger

    Jump

  • Automatic safeties are a thing and pretty common.

    In some cases, the safety is built into the trigger or the grip or both. With a grip safety, if you grip the gun properly, the safety turns off. Likewise a trigger may be split, with one piece further forward than the rest. You have to pull the trigger properly to disengage the safety as you shoot it.

    In this case you have to pull the trigger properly while also gripping the gun properly. No manual safety, but it still won’t fire if you drop it or a pen works it’s way into the trigger guard in a purse or something.

  • What horror story/movie/game/whatever terrifies you even though it's fictional?

    Jump

  • I thought for sure this was gonna be “Everywhere at the End of Time”.

    If you’re not familiar, it’s a 6 hour audio piece that simulates the descent into dementia ending in the complete loss of oneself and eventually death.

    Knowing what it is going in, it’s terrifying to listen to.

    The whole thing is on YouTube, posted by the creator without ads, but I’m too lazy to go find it and don’t want the piped link bot to kill me in my sleep.

  • Cops can force suspect to unlock phone with thumbprint, US court rules

  • You don’t even need to reboot. Just holding the shutdown combination to pull the menu up is enough to activate the passcode lock. You can just hit cancel after that.

  • Excluding the Horror genre and individual movies in a series, what movie story ends with evil winning?

    Jump

  • It's a point raised in the movie. There were no people in the buildings because the bombings were done at night and the only people that would be in the buildings were a part of the group and knew to be out of them.

  • Roku explores taking over HDMI feeds with ads

  • You are a fucking hero. I couldn't figure out why my Roku TVs were still able to get ads after blocking everything.

  • Broadcom yanks ESXi Free version, effective immediately

  • FWIW, I run proxmox at home, and I friggin love it. It's really not hard at all.

  • Understanding ADHD

    Jump

  • I’ve always thought that ADHD is the most poorly named condition I’ve ever seen. It’s borderline offensive. They named the condition after the fact that other people find us annoying, and even then, the name describes a single sign, and is far from all encompassing. It’s like calling Parkinson’s Disease “shaky hand syndrome”.

    The group responsible for the DSM needs to get off its ass and do better.

  • The bolt action is wenge with a oil/wax blend friction polished finish. I'm asking $100 for it with free shipping to anywhere in the continental US. It comes with a free black faux-velvet sleeve for safekeeping.

    I will ship internationally, but that's not included, sadly.

  • I still have the third one available. I'm asking $50 for it, with free shipping to the continental US. It's padauk, canarywood, katalox, and leopardwood with an aluminum inlay and a cyanoacrylate finish..
