There are much longer versions on the YT channel of Ivan Miranda who built it: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCF3cDM_hQMtIEJvEW1BZugg

It works by pushing out wrong marbles in the elevator so only correct ones for the current time make out to the queue.

European propaganda DESTROYED in c/lemmyshitpost@lemmy.world

We need to collectively realize that both Celsius and Fahrenheit are mostly arbitrary and not more than practical conventions to assign numbers to temperatures. Kelvin makes more sense but is impractical for daily use. It's just US-Americans distracting from the fact that most of their units are objectively bad compared to Metric by pointing out that Celsius is only marginally better.

E-Mail with own domain in c/selfhosting@slrpnk.net

Yeah, that's kind of what I thought, and if dynamic DNS is a problem then that already rules out self-hosting for me.

Thanks, the docs you linked really made it clear how the domain is connected in practice.

E-Mail with own domain (programming.dev)
 

I was thinking about how to improve my email situation, because at the moment I am using an address of a commercial mail provider, which obviously brings some concerns of lock-in.

While fully self-hosting the email is an option, I am a bit wary of this, because having a working email is very critical and I do trust the commercial providers to give better uptime and reliability than my old server in the closet. Does anyone have experience hosting an email service and what is it like/could you recommend it?

The other option that I am more inclined to is having the email hosted by some cloud provider, but using an address under my personal domain name. The point would be of course that I could change the email provider while keeping the address. Which providers supporting this could you recommend? What is the process like linking a domain to an email host?

Could he not have at least had one of his aides rewrite the letter in a normal language?

I assume they decided not to publish on Steam because of their proximity to Minecraft, whose players are already used to having an extra launcher.

I just think it's pretty cool that Felix, who has never really mentioned anything Linux before, chose to go with a Linux distro for the PC he put together.

What were your favorite puzzles of 2024? (programming.dev)
 

Now that Advent of Code 2024 has concluded, I wanted to get people's opinion on what puzzles they especially liked looking back. This could be because of the puzzle mechanics, the description, because you are especially proud of your solution that day, or for any other reason.

Feel free to answer even if you only saw part of the puzzles.

My picks would be:

  • 14 (Restroom Redoubt, robots moving into christmas tree shape). Even though it caught me off-guard in the moment, I did like that part 2 had this very imprecise requirement for once. Definitely made for varied, creative solutions.
  • 15 (Warehouse Woes, robots pushing boxes) The second part was a fairly big complexity spike with just a minor change in the tasks. Basically a form of simulation where the hard part is finding a good data representation for the setup. I liked this one because debugging was such a visual process for me, by printing the grids.
  • 17 (Chronospatial Computer, running a machine code) For me the first really tricky one, but still doable. These assembly puzzles are just neat. A lot of computation is started with a pretty small input, and the task is basically to really understand how this "computer" works.

What have been your favorites?

The EU wants to cut funding for Free Software. Tell them why they should reconsider. (fsfe.org)

In its current plan, the EU commission intends to cut €27 million in funding for Free Software. The article has a link to a questionnaire that you can fill out and express your opinion about the plan. I believe non-EU citizens can participate as well.
