Forcing stalemate if you're super down in material

I've got optimizer tendencies, but we've also got another member who is 100% "What would my character do in this high stress situation with the knowledge they have" and I've found myself leaning that way during combat more and more.

I will still scrutinize everything outside of combat though, and I'm thankful for the IRL time pressure to get me out of that.

I know that "Vanity Addresses" are a common thing for onion sites, and there are tools which generate tons of keys looking for prefixes. I haven't seen such a tool for ssh host keys though.

Taking courses which involve subjects that you will likely never encounter in the workforce is a thing in every discipline. Most engineers don't need to manually solve differential equations in their day jobs, they just need to know that they exist and will often require numerical solutions.

Getting your hands dirty with the content provides a better understanding when dealing with higher level concepts.

It varies. Reddit is/was the primary forum for a number of projects, and as each sub is community moderated, could be quite rich, even if the whole is "generally full of garbage".

I did about once a year until 2018 when I settled on Arch.

But now I've got a server on NixOS and loving it, so I might be switching my laptop soon.

My experience is still a good success rate there. Back in ~2015 my family got an USB WiFi card which needed an out-of-tree module, which the manufacturer had on Github, complete with DKMS instructions. It was upstreamed after about a year, though!

The only completely unsupported device I've had is my laptop's fingerprint sensor.

I think this is a good default.

An impossible dream of mine would be to check a list of devices with haptic touchpads, and disable tap-to-click on those.

Fwiw, gitea has compatible actions. Not sure how compatible, though.
