Though I read that study was skewed by the average age of people that can afford to live near a golf course. They didn't compare like for like in terms of health (as I recall anyway, open to correction!)

I feel like frame 3 should be clean shaven and frame 4 captioned "everything, right?"

Ah, interesting. Thanks

Unless I'm missing something here... The attacker needs to be running some sort of executable in your network with permissions to:

  • dig the records and assemble the strings
  • write the decoded result to a file
  • make that file executable
  • execute that file

You've got bigger problems than hexadecimal txt records in this scenario...

The only difference between this and a GitHub gist appears to be that security software doesn't scan traffic in port 53... It easily could be configured for that though surely... It's just UDP traffic like any other.

Someone tell me what I'm missing!

Native English speaker here. This is incorrect, the "n" is added for phonetic help "a elephant" involves an awkward break between the two words, so enter "n" to help mouth muscles work around that.

This is the same reason for weird artifacts like: "a unicorn" because unicorn starts with. "Yoo" sound and so mouths don't need the help of the "n" to break up the awkwardness.

I think it'd be more fun if in the last frame the tomato had flourished into a healthy tomato plant.

Hey!

I want to encourage economic activity within Europe and also ethically align with recycled materials etc.

I'm trying to buy myself a hydration pack for running long distance with, and it's hard to convince myself of anything better than osprey:

  • I'm familiar with the company and they have high standards
  • they have a great guarantee to repair products
  • they use recycled materials
  • the product "Duro 6" fits every requirement that I have

Before I go ahead and buy that, can anyone suggest an equal or better product produced in Europe.

Edit: I ended up with Salomon and it's great!

 

Hey everyone,

I have a gaming laptop with fedora installed and in general have no problems with it. However I would like to play some games on it from Steam.

So I installed the Nvidia drivers and when the laptop is not using an external monitor it's great, the games performance are 10/10.

However I most often use my laptop plugged into an ultrawide monitor and when I do that with the Nvidia driver active all sorts of strangle artifacts show up on the screen and the edges go blue and shudder, this slowly gets worse over the course of about 15 minutes until I cannot use the laptop at all and need to reboot.

Using the built in drivers the ultrawide monitor is completely fine, but games run very poorly.

Does any one have any experience with this, and any idea if there's something I can do to correct it?
