a set of Torx Security 5-point Star bits are on the way
I know some Apple products use tiny pentalobes but this is a ~4mm screw. way bigger.
@silvermoon82 yeah you'd think they'd consider it a positive! clearly I'm good at following orders
I got offered a 300k/year rust job but they said they'd only hire me if I promised never to use cargo-mommy.
So needless to say, I'm still looking for a job.
(for mastodon reasons I must make it clear that this is a joke)
@zens send me the url
I'm was thinking something that combines bittorrent with git, but now I realize it sounds like I'm talking about a blockchain.
Eh, nevermind, just run a git repo on a tor hidden service.
Hmm... Can git check out from onion:// urls?
I wonder how long until someone builds a decentralized source repo with deniability...
Solely to avoid cease-and-desist letters on Nintendo fan projects?
@ADisorderlyFashion some hardware for scooter delivery drivers.
You should immediately change your safeword if it's ever exposed.
Otherwise someone could use it to safeword on your behalf, ending a scene immediately!
This is known as a Denial of Service-top Effect.
It used to be the recommended practice to change your safeword every 90 days or so, but this is no longer the standard. It doesn't help much with safety and it just encourages users to pick bad safewords.
@skaverat now that it's been leaked on mastodon, do I have to change my safeword immediately for security?
COUNTERSUNK SECURITY PENTALOBE?!
You know a piece of tech is going to be fun to take apart when it makes you go buy a new set of bits just to be able to open it
@HEXWALKER I actually did that once! I modified all the textures to be 1x1 and played the game flat
@nina_kali_nina @fraggle oh that's a clever cheat
@fraggle nice!
Alternatively we could make a cut-down version of Doom, so it's smaller. Textures are a huge part of Doom's file size: if we shrank textures, we'd need fewer disks.
Maybe a minimalist doom could fit on one disk?
We'd also need to rearrange the textures so that they'll be located on the same disk as the level they're used in.
We might could lower the disk swapping by having duplicate copies of textures. But that'd mean more floppy disks, but fewer swaps
You might need to shard the WADs, so it knows which disks it needs when.
This implies a different WAD structure, since the way they work now has no index. When DOOM needs to load a given texture, it knows it's in one of two WADs: the IWAD or an optionally loaded PWAD.
So it can just scan through the file and find all the lumps. With a multi-disk system, either we make the user insert all disks at start (to find out what's where) or our WAD format needs an index
