Between season 18 and 19 was when the movie came out it IMDb’s dates are correct.

An Apple TV actually fits this use case pretty well. Being Apple most providers will have native apps available for the device (they definitely have Netflix, Prime Video and Disney+), it comes with a remote but supports using other infrared remotes (you can train it to recognise specific buttons so doesn’t matter what remote you use), and you can also control it from your phone (it works natively for iOS but there are Android apps that can do it too).

For casting, if you use Apple devices it’s easy with AirPlay. If you use Android devices there are apps you can get that support Chromecast, however haven’t ever used them personally so can’t comment on their effectiveness.

And to date Apple haven’t put ads into the tvOS interface. It’s basically a grid of apps and you just open the one you want to watch. It’s been our primary TV device for years now, and is simple enough to use that even my 60 something tech adverse mum likes using it.

For most of my internal services that are sitting behind Traefik I use step-ca which basically gives you a Let’s Encrypt style certificate while working over the local network. The root CA has a long expiry (so might not be what you want if your goal Is a short lived root CA) but the actual certificates for each service are short lived (a touch over 24 hours from memory?)

We had a system at work that generated 4 character alphanumeric reference numbers. Originally to avoid this they just excluded vowels from the letters but eventually they grew enough they ran out of available reference numbers so they added the vowels back in and I had to built the blacklist to avoid stuff like this happening. I reckon I probably tripped every IT filter known to man in a week long period looking for swear words in a variety of languages 😂

The part where people share asterisks when they talk about their passwords? Just seems like good security honestly 😂 Glad Lemmy is keeping up with this pinnacle of security best practices.

It’s definitely a spiritual successor to Apollo and is the main reason I’ve stuck with Lemmy.

Games that have already been classified prior to September 22nd aren’t affected by this unless they need to go through classification again, however I’m going to laugh if Pokemon Red & Blue are rereleased on the Switch 2 at some point in the future and get slapped with an R18+ rating 😂

Okay, my sister in law is a big fan of lizards and sneks, so now I’m embarrassed that’s not where I went to first 😅 However I wish you the best of luck with your Llama owning aspirations in the future!

I’m allergic, so wasn’t the first thing to come to mind. However yes, would also be a valid alternative.

I’ve seen the acronym DINKWAD before, but never DINKWAL. I know DINKWAD is dual income, no kids with a dog, so now I can only assume you own a Llama.

I created an SMS to Email gateway back in 2011 when data was still expensive on phones and I was trying to see if I could turn an iPod Touch into an iPhone. (I was a poor student at the time, was trying to find ways to save money 😅)

Basically I had a 3G modem plugged into a Linux server that could receive the messages, a prepaid SIM card with a long life credit expiry, a domain name set up with unknown email address capturing, and some tools to handle the actual SMS part.

At the time I published the scripts I used online and apparently they’re still online 😅 This is on Whirlpool which is an Australian telecommunications forum.

That good advice, thank you, will definitely give that a shot!

I have Ventoy on a USB stick, tried to use it recently for DBAN and it didn’t work, is there any way to get around that these days? Haven’t looked into it recently.

Not broken, you just weren’t fast enough, someone got to it before you did.

Was looking for this. The crossover randomiser of Link to the Past and Super Metroid is a masterpiece, and if you like one or both of the games it provides you with a new way to have the complete the game every time you play it.

Add in the different flavours like entrance randomiser (where not only are the items shuffled but the doors you enter don’t go where they normally go), or keysanity (where keys don’t stay in their dungeons and can instead be anywhere) and it turns what was already a great SNES area game into something you can play over and over again.

The last time France used it was in 1977, so while it might have started a while back they only stopped using it less than 50 years ago.

Someone crunched the numbers and worked out this was cheaper than dealing with people wanting refunds of their DLC content when the main game was delisted.

I can’t speak to the Xbox stuff but for the most part I feel the Dawntrail launch has gone really well. Yes, there’s some bugs, that’s usually inevitable for a launch of this size, but the only game breaking one I’ve seen was Syrcus Tower which was fixed in under 24 hours without bringing the game down for maintenance.

But I don’t think there’s been anywhere near as many queuing issues as there was in Endwalker, and while I’m only just past the first dungeon in the MSQ the only issues I’ve seen (other than ST) have been cosmetic.

Halocene. They got noticed for their covers of a variety of songs but they’ve also got their own music as well. Here’s a couple of my favourites.

Hold Me Help Me

Maleficent

Devil Inside Me

They’re currently touring as well through Europe and back around the US later this year.
