I can do a moustache OR chin whiskers, but not a beard (mustache with chin whiskers)?

My only regret is I get more spam about 'found you on linkedin' than before I deleted my account.

Care to share with the rest of the class?

FWIW - I deleted my linkedin about a year ago and I've received more spam since I deleted it than when it was active.

Important note because DoT deployment has basically collapsed compared to DoH, which appears to have won the market.

My favorite torus game is Tetris on a Torus

very neat. I'd say this is kinda on top of a torus, and more of a cylinder from the perspective of the Tetris pieces. not sure how you'd play on the surface of a torus, since you need to wrap around vertically too.

E.g the pieces from the rows you eliminate reappear at random at the top row.

Embrace it, friend. Shave it all off and grow a goatee (Breaking Bad style). You'll get your mojo back and be better off for it.

Don't forget to learn to play the base guitar!

Scaleway's site and support is horrible, as you've found. But their pricing and offerings are solid and their network is... OK. For the price, they're better than Hetzner... if you can get signed up!

Totally different experience here! For a project I wanted to try “euro cloud”. Something comparable to digital ocean. No need for hyperscaler functionality.

It has been great. Good terraform provider and reliable service. I like their console, although the design feel very vaporwave to me.

Of course stuff can be better, but it is rapidly improving. The way they implemented grafana + user management was shit. But that’s fixed. Grafana still feels bolted on however. And login is a bit weird with their dedibox or whatever button next to the cloud offering. But no where near as confusing as aws is!

Also bumped on a bug in their terraform provider, found a related bug report, contributed some info and it was fixed within two weeks.

Quite happy so far. Running serverless sql, serverless containers. Secrets management and some iam config. No big stuff but quite sure it is capable to run a decently sized saas.

I won't comment on the reliability of their services, as I've not experienced it. I was signing up specifically to provision a M1 mac mini, and couldn't navigate it. It was unfortunate, but worth a comment, in case others experience the same issue (or someone else could point me in the right direction).

Glad to know you've got good experiences though.

It was specifically for the M1 mac minis, so not too fussed about everything else, but judging from the comments, experiences are mixed.

I'll try to sign up again in a week or two.

The map is fake. Please note the X community note on that post: "This map is the prevalence of male circumcision" from a 2024 study https://www.mdpi.com/2563-6499/5/3/36 (see figure 1)

I read the article... did I miss it? I still have no idea how to spot a counterfeit lith-ion battery without a CT scanner.

Looks like it was half written.

But, step #1 is pull up it's spec sheet and replicate their capacity testing method. At least for single cells. For packs there's not much you can do but buy from trusted places- manufacturer, bhphoto (for cameras).

18650batterystore has always been good to me, at least for the 300 Samsung 25R's I bought.

yea they note nothing can be verified visually but one option is to verify the part/mfg #,

“For most of these products, they are sold with part numbers that show an equivalency to a manufacturer’s part number."

Doubt i'd do that, would probably just source from name brands.

"One test, called a destructive physical analysis, involved dismantling small cylindrical batteries. This immediately revealed differences in quality."

hulk smash!
