If paying on a monthly basis, as soon as you pay for 12 consecutive months, you will receive this perpetual fallback license providing you with access to the exact product version for when your 12 consecutive months subscription started. You will receive perpetual fallback licenses for every version you’ve paid 12 consecutive months for.

So, in your example, you unsubscribe in month 15. This means, you paid 14 months so you get to retain the version from month three (which is 12 full paid months to 14). This means a downgrade to 1.0.x and not to 1.2.x

I remember having a defective hdd in my PC. I brought the pc to the shop, where I bought it from to get it replaced under warranty. They told me they couldn’t restore my data (I had backups) and asked if I wanted them to install windows on it. When they asked for my key I was like “FC…” and they responded “ok, we know that one, no need to spell it out” and proceeded with the installation

IIRC if you cannot do it because you never learned it it’s “Je ne sais pas parler français”

Je suis dans ça mème et je ne l’aime pas.

Oui, j’ai appris la langue française à l’école aussi.

Non, je ne veux… sais pas parler français!

When I was a student, I did an internship in a chemistry lab. On one of the days, someone brought in some samples of skunk secretion for an analysis.

Everyone was like Not again i dont want that, let the intern do this!

I thought how bad could it be?. Turns out really bad. It days to stop that smell. And I mostly handled the sealed phials and only opened a single one for a gas chromatography without spilling something…

Smork Alam! 🎶🎵

Best I can do is toes with no feet ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

The big note reads $550, yes. But it’s cropped in a way that $5500 is possible. And if you take a look at the small price tag in the top left of that issue, you can see, that its $5500.

Followed by a Release Candidate - a beta build that got labeled differently because management said it was time to wrap up development and ship it

Is that KNEE BOARDING guy jacking off?

My newest vps runs with Caddy. Works like a charm. The downside was, that I didn’t think of the automatic certificate deployment when I set everything up and it wouldn’t come up a first when I only wanted to connect locally to it, as it tried to get a certificate but the challenge failed because I hadn’t the firewall open yet. But besides that it was very smooth so far.

Amazon Deep Glacier is a lot cheaper for storage (but expensive for retrieval).

I use Archive Storage in Oracle Cloud S3 for my dr backups which is their equivalent of AWS deep glacier archive. It’s quite cheap, no restore fees, inbound traffic is free and outbound traffic is only paid, when you’re using more than 10TB per month. (Also first 10 GB of S3 storage is free)

It’s not the most detailed thing, but I just use a free account on cron-job.org to send a head request every two minutes to a few services that are reachable from the internet (either just their homepage or some ping endpoint in the API) and then used the status page functionality to have a simple second status page on a third party server.

You can do a bit more on their paid tier, but so far I didn’t need that.

On the other hand, you could try if a free tier/cheap small vps on one of the many cloud providers is sufficient for an uptime Kuma installation. Just don’t use the same cloud provider as all other of your services run in.

Have you watched Shrek?

Dragons and Nymphs don’t fuck around. Got it.

I remember this from Win 95 and Win 98, maybe even XP? You usually had a GPU, but they were more simple than today’s GPUs. Oftentimes they were on-board (in contrast to today’s iGPUs that are part of the processor, not part of the mainboard).

In the very early times you had 3D cards like the 3Dfx Vodoo cards. Those could only render 3D. Your desktop and other programs were still rendered by your normal GPU or on-board graphics card. They did only render 3D. You had to put a small cable from the output of your regular GPU to your 3D card’s input and then plug you monitor into the 3D card. While you didn’t do 3D, the 3Dfx Vodoo would just output everything it received from your regular GPU. When you played a game, it would output whatever it rendered instead.

Back then, there was less hardware acceleration for the regular desktop stuff. Probably it just copied the data from the software rendering, and there it just defined that this part of the screen was hardware accelerated and this region pointed to vram instead of regular RAM.

Not a fever dream, I remember this, too. You basically got a “transparent” image through which you could see the rendered live (or game, as it happened with those, too). As soon as you closed the video player/game, or saved and reloaded the image, the effect was gone and you were stuck with a… I think it was just a black image?

I was wondering the same, but I didn’t find any information on how it builds the search index. I guess it takes quite a while until it’s usable. Also, it might be very dependent on the speed if the internet connection and also the available storage.
