EU KIDS Act will require age verification for all online and perhaps offline games to "protect children" in c/news@lemmy.world

Same, plus Carmageddon. I'm actually a pretty decent driver with very few Hit&Runs.

Both games had age requirements upon release, but where I live there was no legal framework of enforcement so anyone could buy any game until mid 2000-s or thereabouts

    Here they are for residential supply. It's been this way for almost 50 years.

    For high voltage AC, underground cabling is actually a nightmare from a maintenance perspective.

    I was considering something new from supermicro, but I decided to go consumer grade for a change, as I mainly just need single threaded performance from this one.

    My only requirement was rack mount, so I went for a Ryzen 5 build inside a rack mount chassis from Inter-Tech. My first build combining these two worlds.

    I'm gonna miss IPMI, though.

    What happened to old info on the web and the ability to search it? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.world
    [–] 4 points 1 month ago

    It's still there, but Google has no incentive to rank it particularly high due to SEO and how they make money.

    There are indexes that are better at searching the small web, instead of funneling everything to Facereddittube l. Kagi is a my recommendation, but there are many others.

    Hanson. Their curse was that Mmmbop became THE hit early in their career. Their later stuff is in fact alright and with a lot more skill involved than a single repeated hook.

    Loads of new stuff in KSA since my previous post. I'll defer to ShadowZone to show you how the game looks like right now (www.youtube.com)
     

    I haven't had much time to update myself on the state of ksaffairs, but the linked video should give you an idea.

    Features implemented since my last post, off the top of my head, includes (but aren't limited to):

    • Craft building
    • Collisions
    • Docking
    • modular BOOSTERS!
    • Official linux builds
    • Improved smoke/exhaust plumes

    As before, the game is available for free at the official site. It is funded partially by donations, including from yours truly, in an effort towards making the game available to everyone and anyone. Any cent contributed to help this business model succeed is greatly appreciated by anyone involved.

    Disclaimer: I am not affiliated with Rocketwerkz or KSA, but i can forward any feedback or issues people may have.

    Given as few intermediary as possible, which item takes the longest to handcraft in vanilla factorio? (sh.itjust.works)
     

    Just asking, because I'm sitting here with modded factorio, and I'm waiting for some handcrafting to finish.

    Sure, some of the intermediaries cannot be handcrafted, such as plastic and blue chips, so we'll say those are allowed.

    Power armor mk2, probably? Anyone tried it to see how much time it takes?

    Also, does the equation change if you have to handcraft any ingredients that go into an assembler to make the non-handcraftable ones?

    Bought an old trailer. Working on refusbishing the important bits (dreifir.com)
     

    Someone sold it for cheap due to the fact that it's 30 years old. I was pleasantly surprised to learn that it's in pretty good condition considering.

    In the picture I am in the process of scrubbing away the worst rust bits. Turned out to be mostly surface stuff. Scrubbed what I could, and got a nice thick coat of Hammerite

    The brakes should be replaced soon, but it's not urgent. Same goes for the bed, but that's not urgent either.

    Lights worked fine, but used the old 7 pin connector. I replaced it with a proper 13 pin ISO 11446 connector so I can plug it into my car without an adapter.
