@Asimech

Of course, yes. Not as much more as you'd think, but of course you can get the raw LEDs for dirt cheap nowadays.

@gkrishnaks

Oh, quite the contrary. Been using it since 2006 or so.

@KopfKrieg

I'm actually not too worried about that. I'm not moving my home and my dotfiles got me covered 🙂

I haven't done this in many years, so I guess it's about time: installing ArchLinux freshly on a new disk.

I'm rather curious what this process feels like in 2019 :-)

@mattgen88

It's certainly a great game that incorporates worker-placement, but I don't consider the two to be all that similar really.

There are no resources involved in Carcassonne, and instead of dice as a random element it's card-shuffling/-picking.

There absolutely needs to be a sequel to Settlers of Catan. I don't mean another expansion pack, I mean a proper sequel:

Ideally, it'd get rid of the dice (altogether) and become more of a worker-placement game. I'd love to see that!

@archadia

I'm sorry about that! I did ponder doing that, but eventually decided a white piece of non-functional plastic is OK. It still resembles a gun obviously, and that's probably the crucial point. So, I guess I misjudged and I'd like to apologize for that!

@sara

Spot on!

@Irina

Oh come on! I knew it was just too easy.

Well, I guess I should just be happy this model is recognizable enough 😆

Looking at this unpainted, unfinished, 3D-printed gun model, can you already guess which character & game it is?

@foks

Thanks, I did not know that! Guess I'm just not sensitive to that kind of effect personally, as I've never noticed it with those LEDs.

If you're ordering surface mounted RGB LEDs, make sure they already come with pre-soldered resistors.

They usually cost about the same, but you don't run the risk of frying the LED, and there's no need to manually wire up resistors anymore.

Good: the right one

@drewcassidy

That's what I was hinting at:

It's certainly true for old-school TV, and yet multicast streams over the Internet are royally f*cked. That could be solved, TV stations could broadcast their stuff that way and we could save a bunch of premium frequencies and bandwidth.

@vy

I quite like the Breeze Dark workspace theme (nothing too fancy here, sorry), but recently switched to a fairly bright/light color scheme: "Ambiance-like".

I've tweaked it a bit and will probably upload my own scheme to the store, sometime soon.

Let me know what you end up using, I'm curious!

@ayy

Sure, if you already know what you wanna watch (and hence record), then that's an easy solution.

@Tau_Leonis

It's not even the commercials. I kinda understand why they don't want you to skip them (no matter how much I'd like to skip them altogether) 😆

I guess I'm just getting less patient with the shows I consume. If I notice they're wasting 5 minutes of my life with something I'm not interested in, I just want to fast forward (or I simply turn off the TV).
