And in practice this means that out of the first four games:

• the quickest took 4 hours and 18 minutes
• the slowest took 4 hours and 44 minutes

The final starts in 5 minutes.

Edit:

• Interview with Reckless developer Arseniy Surkov
• Dev teams agree to Superfinal restart! Regression in nodespeed caused by the combination of a rustc upgrade and the TCEC hardware (2x AMD EPYC 9754 (256 cores/512 threads))
  Stockfish devs “[…] encourage adding some rustc / g++ meme to TCEC chat.”

slice::element_offset() looks really nice. But I don’t know yet where I would use it.

Oh damn, this is more of a headache than I expected.

I’ll take a look at termux and syncthing-tray when I have time for that.
I already had a cursory glance, and syncthing-tray seems to have a lot of caveats and syncthing on termux is not quite the gui-app I wanted. But at least there are some apps even if they aren’t ideal yet.

And in the process fucked up how Germans say numbers for centuries.

Sounds interesting. Do you know where I can read more about that?
When I try searching for Luthers influence on numbers, I just get data about Luther (year of birth, age at death, etc.).

OpenSuse Slowroll (rolling release with constant updates plus an update burst every two months)

• Prefer rolling release over fixed release.
• I do like OpenSuse in general.
• I install a lot of packages and want to stay up to date (security & GUI notifications). With OpenSuse Tumbleweed I have to install a couple gigabytes of updates every week. It’s not ideal for me.
• Too impatient to wait for the proper release of Slowroll.

How numbers are pronounced.
In German the number 185 is pronounced as “hundred-five-and-eighty” (hundertfünfundachtzig), the digits are not spoken in order of their magnitude.
Not terrible, not great.

The security of a fully random password depends on the number of available symbols (alphabet) and the length.
The strength of the password is simply symbolcount^length.

For a conventional password the symbols/alphabet are characters, numbers and special characters.
For a mnemonic the symbols are simply full words and the “alphabet” is a list with a couple thousand words.

Mnemonic passwords are secure because of their large alphabet, and easy to remember because of the lower length (in symbols) and because human brains are good at coming up with associations (usually stories) for random words.
If you want to generate your own mnemonic password you can try diceware.
With diceware you roll a few dice to select random words from a list.

Iced 0.10 just got released (changelog),
and includes support for incremental rendering (#1811).

Servus.

“This release includes major improvements to performance, specifically optimizations of database queries. Special thanks to @phiresky, @ruud, @sunaurus and many others for investigating these.”

Hehe, lemmy.world doing some stress testing for the entire lemmy project.

Seems like the subscript markdown doesn’t work on Jerboa yet.
Apologies to anyone bothered by the tildes. 🙇

There is value in real people selecting what to post on a link aggregator like lemmy/reddit/… .
I don’t want to loose that human feeling, both in posts and comments.
Of course the voting mechanism can do a lot of the heavy lifting, but having a flood of robot posts with a score of one might have a negative effect on good posts getting discovered.

_{Hopefully the community will grow naturally to a point where it can satisfy my doom-scrolling addiction.}

Captchas depended on websockets which were removed.

“Note that captcha uuids and answers were stored in-memory in the websocket server which is removed now, so its necessary to add a new database table for captchas.”
