@aras I was just going through my bookmarks to clear out old broken links. And I found this bookmark from 9 years ago, long before I worked at Unity, and even knew who you were. The tech industry is a small place.

Today, I login, and see posts, thinking you came back, check the history, and 100s of posts filled in. I suspect Hachyderm had some kind of synchronization issue with your instance for a while.

Firefox doesn't have WebUSB, and I rely heavily on that for managing certain hardware on Linux. So until Firefox gets WebUSB, it is a no, even though I like a lot about Firefox.
I have been using Brave, but they broke something recently on both system package and flatpak, as it doesn't work on any of my machines.
Do I go back to edge? or Vivaldi? A new fork I am not familiar with?

Family slept well enough the first night, but we will probably be jetlagged and sore for a few days. But we will probably just explore and buy furniture for our new home. Excited to be in Europe.

There were options suggested, but have to be very careful not to get accidentally charged the GDP of a small country. Doesn't need to be free
So what are some of your alternatives to Cloudflare? Especially for Cloudflared/Proxy/Tunnel, Auth, CDN (free egress), etc
I will blog the results. Pls boost for reach.

Did you find a homemade route? Thinking of building something for my daughter, she's 2.5, but a physical card thing will work for her, she loves music and dancing

Or rebuild in Lume/Deno/Typescript, which is pleasant to use and has fun features.
I partially blame @cadey for showing me cool new things to tinker with.

Does that mean you no longer monitor this account either? And since you are on Instagram, do you plan to do Threads? Threads plans to federate with ActivityPub so it could be an easy way for people on Mastodon to follow/interact while easier for you to manage if you plan to leave Mastodon.

We are curious if anyone in the #danish or #german community could help transliterate my last name using local pronunciation/vowels. My last name is `Kuncheff`, originally `Кънчев` (Kunchev), but adjusted to be easier to pronounce. the `Kun` is pronounced like fun, sun, gun, etc. In america, its regularly mispronounced like `boon` instead. And the V is more inbetween a hard V and an F, hence the FF

I had a similar adventure recently with Hetzner. I wanted to use the IPv6-only option, but then i hit problems with Docker, and other sites not having IPv6 addresses. I eventually caved and paid extra for an IPv4 address.
But I didn't know of NAT64 and other stuff you mentioned, so I might give it another go soon.

This article about how MTG Arena handles card rules is a nice insight on how to solve a complex problem space, even if there is no code to look at.

"If you won the DIY NAS: 2023 Edition, what would you do with it? What sort of problems would it solve for you?"
I would setup offline backups for all my cloud stores data, you never know what will happen or what policy change can lose your data. There are so many important photos on Google Photos, and while I do automated takeouts to OneDrive, I would like to finally setup a NAS to stuff something at home.
Planning to build my own if I don't win.

It's open source though, so if anyone feels like contributing, you can run the pandoc commands on the new SRD and old SRD, compare to find what's new, and open a PR, I will review and approve.
Otherwise, I'll get to it later.
