The one where the the front fell off?

no need to seriously adapt to their environment.

Yeah, cats make everyone and everything adapt to their environment. You have to completely go outside the environment to avoid their influence.

Booze.

I have huge chunks of memories missing and that ain’t exactly a bad thing for my older, and sober, self. (Sometimes I still get flashbacks of blurry memories and it is very anxiety inducing. Booze memories are weird and were written to some corrupt cells or something that only pop back up under strange conditions.)

One of the other notable scenes with her sister was in the steel factory, when the T1000 was mimicking Sarah. The T1000 was actually played by Linda Hamilton and it was her sister with the shotgun.

Let me rub it in then… ;)

That is Sarah Connor from Terminator 1

For anyone wondering, that’s Sarah Connors dream from Terminator 2 right before the city gets nuked.

That would mean the coffee supports Unicode better than my Lemmy client. (The “i” is broken for me.)

Brosnan was great but Sean Connery was impossible to beat.

Do a look-through of that XML folder as well. Images could be base64 encoded in those XML files. I remember several instances where XML was used as a template “language” for old style GUIs. (When XML and HTML diverged, a lot of that kind of thing was happening.)

There are some kind of instructions in this video that go through a logo change process. I don’t know if this helps, but I tried: https://youtu.be/QrobPTgu7C0

Also, does it use some kind of database? The images seem like they would be small enough to jam into a blob and just store alongside regular inventory information. If there is a database, it’s probably third-party. If it’s third-party, I would see if it had its own installer packaged inside of the application installer itself. (A third party database would likely be outside of the main app folder.)

Just dumping random thoughts.

Observe while participating is what I meant. The intent is to give a person a heads up that cliques still exist on Lemmy and it may take a bit to understand them. In my case, I found the first instance I wouldn’t participate on when I was classified as a fascist baby killer for some reason. (Some instances hadn’t been mostly defederated back then.)

I would tweak that a hair and tell people just to make an account somewhere and observe for a bit. Lemmy can have some very distinct groups that reside on very specific instances. Or not. It’s a “pick your adventure” kind of scenario, IMHO.

It took about six months or so for me to settle into .ca after bouncing around a bit. It’s not really a pain to switch instances, but I personally like my chat history in one spot and I like the concept of a ‘home instance’.

Depending on your client and your settings, your feed could have a bias that leans in the direction of the posts on your home instance, so that is something of note. Not saying that is bad or good, it just is what it is.

It finally feels like recent microcode updates have improved RAM stability at and over 6000MHz. I was an early adopter of the 9950X3D with an X870E, and it’s been a slow and painful wait while stability issues were worked out over this last year. (Since I migrated to AMD with a 7950X3D, memory training has always been hit-or-miss. Usually a miss unless starting from cold boot.)

Realistically, there isn’t a huge benefit for RAM speeds over 6000 for now, but I can say with confidence that AMD @ 6000 being the sweet spot may be finally in the past. Hopefully. Maybe. (I am running a Crucial 6400 64GB kit now with some tight timings and a mild overclock and it’s rock solid, but it was a long wait to get there.)

How will you know you are in the best timeline? If you hit the jackpot and timeline is already perfect, there is no way to know. Any other coin flips will always produce sub-par results after that. (Unless multiple chances at perfection are possible, that is.)

Get your hand off my penis!!

Mixed theories on that, and most are older.

On earlier computers, I had several ICs walk themselves out of sockets due to repeated thermal expansion cycles. Keeping the computer turned on eliminates most of that.

Mechanical wear was another problem. Booting a computer was extremely taxing on old HDDs and floppy drives.

Edit: Mechanical stuff also takes much more power to spin up and get running. The energy savings might be measurable if you just kept a computer running and didn’t power cycle it everyday.

Most power supplies are really well designed now but they had a tendency to spike power briefly in when turned on. This was especially bad for older capacitors but also not healthy for the ICs. This still happens to a degree, but it’s not an issue.

Now that boot times are reasonably fast and most everything is solid state and power managed really well, turning a computer off is fine.

However, I just assume most electronics now just go into some type of deep sleep mode unless fully disconnected from any power source. That likely isn’t true in many cases, but I consider it healthy level of paranoia.

Could be as simple as a sensor. If there are other engine codes, that could mean a bigger issue. The obvious first steps are to check if the cat is actually still there or if wires to the sensors are damaged.

Catalytic converters can last a long time unless combustion issues or other serious engine problems are ignored. TBH, catalytic converter codes are generally just a symptom of something else. So, do as detailed of an inspection as you can for any wiring damage or leaks. If you have any leaks, try your best to identify the kind of fluid it is. Maybe you can get a hint about what else is going on.

Combustion control is horrendously complex, so it could be any number of things from bad spark plugs to a malfunction in the EGR system. Any information you can gather about the problem now may save you some time and money later.

(I dunno if you know anything about cars, but I just covered the basics, just in case.)

Gleba was a pain. Once I got defense figured out and wasn’t getting harassed any more, it was much easier to focus on my builds.

While I still don’t like Gleba, it taught me how to create extremely resilient builds and forced me to fully understand belt logic. (I had an oopsie last night where I forgot about a one-off process I was running and I came back to 4M spoilage in storage. However, everything was still running and it was fairly easy to purge the mess.)

Give it a try again if you can muster the strength. It really did change quite a bit about how I solve problems in Factorio.
