    This is simply not true. Nitrogen is not the issue, CO2 is. If you breathe too much CO2, your body panicks.

    So do it properly and the worst you get is a slight headache. But since you are „high“, you don’t care anymore.

    How is this type of shading called?

    I like it very much, as it is a type of shade you cannot achieve with an algorithm (at least not that easy and perfectly). Would love to have a tattoo like that.

    Wayland 1.0 was released in 2012.

    Now, 12 years later, it still is not production ready. I lost hopes long ago and rather stick to a security flawed but stable X11.

    I am very glad with the proposal of the Frog protocol, as Wayland was dead before it could even walk.

    I am Swiss and member of the other big organization which helps people die. Not because I want to die, but I think it is every persons basic right to decide, when their life should end.

    Since you do not work with a hermetically sealed environment, it is totally enough to use duct tape to bridge different hoses. The goal is to have a steady stream of nitrogen which you can breathe for at least 60 minutes. Not that you need this long to die, but in cases like this, I would add 3-4 times the amount of safety, so you are clearly dead and not just a veggie in a coma.

    This. So don’t just put a bag over your head. The CO2 buildup will make you feel how you suffocate. Just order a gas mask like thing (hardware store, medical suppplier, scuba gear,…) and make it so you breathe nitrogen, but exhale the used air to the atmosphere.

    I can totally relate to that and I think I fail at being patient mainly. Now I have every reason to try even harder

    Serious question: how to give back to those people? I struggle to understand sometimes how I can be a good friend to them.

    Yeah the Open Source version. I doubt that the hosted version is using that. Cloud providers have super fast DB’s that are basically compatible with the MySQL syntax

    My question was ironic, implying that anyone using it in a productive system/software/service is doing a very bad job at software architecture. I avoid any product relying on super slow software pieces.

    Well, who is using mysql/mariadb nowadays anyways? If you haven’t made the switch to at least postgres in the past 5 years, you messed up anyways.

  • This year I‘ll be able to upgrade to 25/25Gbps and I‘m planning on using at least 20Gbps for seeding 24/7. Is any maintainer of private trackers interested in inviting me?

    I‘m trying to repair my Polar Vantage V2, as it has some electrical issues (display errors and unwanted button behavior). The watch is waterproof, which means the parts are most likely glued together. The watch doesn’t have to stay waterproof after repairs. So far I only saw one screw on the side. Removing it did nothing. I also baked the watch at 80°C and 105°C for about 10 mins each in hopes it would soften the glue enough. I tried to use a suction cup to pull on the display, but nothing moved. I tried to put something between the case and display glass, but the gap is just too narrow. I think increasing the oven temperature might end up in a damaged battery or display. Any other recommendations on how I could open up the watch?
