I don’t use mine nearly enough :/
So the Flemish part of Belgium has “tenen”, which is not toefinger. The french have “orteils”, which is also not fingers of the foot( finger is doigt ).
So the map is at least wrong for those two countries.


While starting to actively block casting. Because you know, going to a vacation home and logging into a foreign device is a million times safer than just plugging in your own Chromecast.
Forcing people to buy smart TVs so they can watch your content ( or enable the smart function so they might get bombarded with ads ) is great customer service.
Just like telling everybody to share accounts with friends and family and then doing a 180 and complain that you’re losing money over this and we should pay more.
I have a hunch that 2026 will be the year off “piracy is skyrocketing once again and we have no idea why”.


Interesting. Thanks for that insight :)


Personally? No I’ve never bought a cert before. Given there’s free alternatives and it’s a homelab it doesn’t make sense. Otherwise I’ve used them on AWS, where ACM also just provides them for free.
What you’re saying is that certificate providers will still charge you and provide certificates for a year, but just provide you with N certificates to span that year?
E.g. if the duration is 45 days then they will give you 365/45 certificates ?


Don’t worry they’ll reduce the cost of certificates proportionally to the longevity of the certificate.
Right? Anybody?

Edit: obviously not LE, but other certificate vendors.
And once the sub stops you lose access to the games.


Where is this even coming from? The guy above me is saying not to give devs better hardware and to teach them to code better.
I followed up with an example of how using indices in a database to boost the performance helped more than throwing more hardware at it.
This has nothing to do with having worked on old code. Stop trying to pull my comment out of context.
But yes you’re right. Adding indexes to a database does nothing to solve adding a new feature in the scenario you described. I also never claimed it did.


Note to self: move to finland
Edit: where I live they also introduced a 4 day workweek. You do your 40h in 4 days instead of 5 and now you have an extra day a week ( to recover from all that overtime ).


This is very true. You don’t need a bigger database server, you need an index on that table you query all the time that’s doing full table scans.
Hetzner has been solid for me ( and eu based if that is relevant for you ).


You’d be surprised how often DDOS can be an inside job.

Come on France. Do what you do best and go on strike until you turn green.


You are correct. I misread ( or my brain farted ) and looked up the wrong one.


Libreoffice their latest blogpost is from the 20th of August 2025. There have been a few releases in the past few months as well.
Openoffice their latest ( Apache Openoffice 4.1.15 ) was released almost 2 years ago ( December 2023 ).
Libreoffice seems like a more recent, better supported tool over Openoffice which hasn’t seen any updates since 2023 according to their own website.
I’m on my phone, so I didn’t search extensively. But I think that also plays a role in why there’s a much larger fanbase for libreoffice rather than Openoffice.
I’ve no recent experience with either so I can’t comment on how well either works.
Edit: I looked up the wrong one. My statement remains correct w.r.t. Openoffice, but they mentioned Onlyoffice which is a different product.


Connections timing out have always been a firewall issue for me.
Client sends packet, firewall drops packet, client waits for a reply that’ll never come. Client times out.
I would check firewall logs or temporarily disable it to see if it works without it.
so yeah check the firewall on the server, the client and in between ( if any ). That’s what I would do.
Half life 3 will simply never live up to the hype/fantasy people have for it ( I think ).
After all this time I feel they’re either never going to release it, or release it when the bar from the public becomes… Realistic.
I did :( I’m very happy with it too.
