Geyser had some issues lately. I run geyser standalone on a vps on the web, the server itself is in my home. The geyser server would sit at 100% CPU all the time. From what i understand: they had an issue recently that would hackers use geyser to run DDoS attacks. It was fixed but the hackers still try to connect. All the time.

I don't know if it is released yet (check their Discord) but they quickly released a patched version that would rate limit connection attempts (block the IP after X attempts). This fixed the issue for me.

You can rent a vps for 4$ / month, Forgejo for server is open source.

This song (and the video) is so much fun

I guess he did a great job! :-)

So they have someone for mixing? I thought Liam Howlett would do that himself?

I only watched the summary, was one of the takeovers on Alonso due to the puncture? I can imagine being taken over, but 3 in a row is a bit much for a driver of his skill :)

I entered the world of Java a few years ago, there were already memes about eclipse back then, so I was prepared to prefer Intellij.

I tried both. Intellij is much more polished, it had some annoying bugs too, but the selling point for me was that eclipse was (is) really good at syncing every change directly to wildfly. This is a huge timesaver. The maven to eclipse plugin I think?

I've tried with jrebel but it's not as quick and reliable as with eclipse.

I am fully prepared for a solution where Intellij is better so please let me know, but no one in our organisation (which has about 50 devs) has found it.

This .. is actually quite accurate.

And for most cases this is perfectly fine!

 

The least subtle song of the 90s, both in lyrics and the trumpet.. or do you know less subtle ones?

Back then it was a place for us nerds, techies, early adopters.

Now it's a place dominated by the rest of the world. Including all the bad stuff like politics, big corporations and ads.

It was nice for a while... We need a new place :-)

This might just be the best song ever.

Groooovy

I just read the penalty for Alonso and sounds like RUS is not at fault here.

Nah, Netflix prefers to create their own stories over displaying the actual stories.

 

I am trying to choose between buying a Nintendo Switch or a Nintendo DS.

This may not be the perfect community to ask - but I can't think of any better place.

The reason for my question: I don't want to own obsolete hardware in 10 years. Lately most games seem to depend on a "phone home" feature, which is not really an issue for my pc because it is always connected, but a console is something I want to play always and everywhere.

I already did some searching and found that games can be played offline fine (most of them, some exceptions are there like Multiplayer and Mortal Kombat), but:

  • There is something like the paid Nintendo Online Account. I am not planning on having a paid account. How much of the system depends on the account?
  • Can I have progression in a game (let's say: one of the Zelda franchise) and will my Wife and Kids all have their own progression, without having to pay for X accounts?
  • People who own a Switch, let's take this to extremes, do you feel like in 20 years from now you can still do the same things on your hardware as you can do now? (No multiplayer is fine)

Also, feel free to rant about "paying is not owning", the state of the gaming industry is horrible.

edit: Thank you all for the comments! I don't post a lot, so it was kinda overwhelming :)

For clarity:

  • I meant I want to "buy for life" (not really "life", but, if the hardware survives you can play on pre-internet consoles forever - you can even buy more games if you can find them)
  • I want to buy a physical copy of the games, not download them

I've decided to go with the Nintendo DS for now (I have a DSi - this week I bought a couple of games, 2nd hand). Reasons:

  • I already had it
  • Joycons on switch. Multiple people mentioned having problems with them. I don't count on being able to buy them new in 10 years, meaning they will have to last.

Again: thank you all for the useful input!
