Google also finds these names confusing. Whenever I try to search for something Stream Deck related, Google returns results for the Steam Deck. It's quite annoying.


that one is on google though


Centralia, PA which is mentioned in the article, is also the inspiration for the town in the Silent Hill games/movie. The real-life town has been burning for 60 years at this point, and it's estimated that it could burn for up to 250 years.

This is incorrect —- American horror novels, particularly those by Stephen King and Dean Koontz, are the primary inspiration for Silent Hill. The game tips it’s hand on this —- many, if not all, of the streets in the first game are named after the authors (and in the case of King, they used his Bachmann pseudonym).

That said, the Centralia fire is a primary inspiration for the 2006 film adaptation of Silent Hill.

Oh, I had read about Centralia being the inspiration for the movie and assumed (or perhaps saw someone incorrectly claim) that it was also the inspiration for the game. Thanks for the correction!


It can be hard to understand complex legal issues. Let me explain.

He was convicted of US Code 18 Section 241 which describes 2 or more people conspiring to deprive victims of their constitutional rights.

Simply tweeting something that is false wouldn't count, and it seems that even intentionally tweeting misinformation wouldn't break this law unless you were conspiring with others to do it.


> even intentionally tweeting misinformation wouldn't break this law unless you were conspiring with others to do it.

Okay, but it has to break some law. You can't be convicted of conspiracy if you're conspiring to do something which is legal. If you actually completed the act you and the other conspirators planned, and this act was not a crime, then your conspiracy can't be a crime either.


Well now it totally makes sense


When I used TikTok on Android, it was the most infuriating in-app browser experience because it had no way to open the URL in your real browser. Not even a way to copy the URL to your clipboard. I guess now I understand why

I started watching his videos about 10 years ago, and while I've shifted a bit toward using more power tools in recent years, I still use his foundational hand tool techniques all the time. He can be a little preachy about his "hand tool only" woodworking philosophy, especially on his blog. If you can overlook that, he has a ton of skill and is good at teaching and demonstrating that skill to others through his videos.


Rather than exhaustively list mine, I'll just list the ones I don't see mentioned in other comments.

- Swag - Nginx reverse proxy for my other services. Similar to other reverse proxies people have mentioned, but it plays nice with other linuxserver containers I run so it's what I've stuck with. Has decent letsencrypt integration.

- Authelia - Integrated with Swag to handle single sign-on for most of my services

- Mylar3 - Helps keep track of comic series and, if you choose, can be used to search and download them as well

- Komga - For organizing/reading comics. I use Klutter as a companion app for reading comics from my Android devices

- readarr - Newer member of the *arr family. Still a bit clunky compared to its siblings, but it's a relatively useful way to organize ebooks and audiobooks. It doesn't do well with mixed book types, though, so I run one instance for ebooks and one for audiobooks.

- Ombi - For managing media requests


I feel like half of Ngrok's value prop is being undervalued here. Namely the fact that it captures requests for inspection and replay. That feature is an absolute game-changer for developing things like Webhooks.

First, it lets you easily see what the Webhooks payload looks like in real life. Second, it lets you hit your endpoint repeatedly with the same payload (while iterating on your code), without having to trigger the 3rd party event again.


That is a great feature, but a dev-centric one. If your focus is instead on self-hosting from behind a NAT, things like end-to-end encryption become more important. There are always tradeoffs.


Ngrok isn't the only one of those that do that though. It's not a unique feature. Hence why there's alternatives listed.


I've more or less stopped using Fiddler and Postman since I started using ngrok.


Fwiw my shell alias looks like this

``` ssh -tR "${HOST_PORT}:localhost:${LOCAL_PORT}" "${USER}@${HOST}" "multitail --basename -mb 2MB --follow-all --mergeall -n 0 -cS apache /srv/mydomain/logs/access.log -n 0 -cS apache_error /srv/mydomain/logs/error.log" ```

Which at least lets me see the nginx request logs as they come in. But no, I can't replay them or anything.


Because vaccinated people mostly don't believe they're immune. We believe we have a strong protection against infection and a stronger protection against death, but that doesn't mean immunity.

My wife and I have been fully vaccinated since May, but we've had several tests since then (so far all negative) when we learned about contact with infected people or were experiencing suspicious symptoms.


> We believe...

I'm vaccinated but had no idea I had such representation on HN, I believe you should speak for yourself sir.


If you disagree, you're wrong, because the GP comment reflects the best currently-available information. Are you OK with being wrong?

That's been the weirdest part of this whole business for me... learning just how many people simply don't care if they're wrong.


I believe most people willing to tell just anyone their beliefs are likely dishonest, and most the honest people are less forthcoming with their beliefs, in part just to avoid potentially having to lie.


It's not the question of being right or wrong but speaking on someone's behalf. It would be enough to say "As a vaccinated person, I believe..."


Are you serious dude relax. It’s ridiculous for someone to say “we” like every vaccinated person acts exactly the same across the whole country, much less the world.


Everyone is different and will have a different lifestyle/environment. It’s completely normal for someone to not have taken a test over the last 6 months.


I bought a copy shortly after it came out. I think I've played it twice for a cumulative play time of perhaps an hour. I expect I'll pick it up again here and there for some stress free fun, but even if I don't I feel it was money well spent.


It scratches the same creative itch as Minecraft did way back when. I could spend hours walking around in first person if only that were implemented.


I used power delivery from my Dell monitor for the last year, but occasionally under heavy workloads it couldn't keep up and my battery would slowly drain. I may have had something misconfigured, but if so I never figured out what it was. Between Yubikey, Ethernet, and two external monitors, I didn't have much choice.

I finally gave up and bought a Thunderbolt dock that actually delivers enough power while also providing expanded port capabilities.
