I think HTG used to be, but they seem to have pivoted to more than just their tech listicles and have a few writers that cover niche tech topics

I hope this has movement that feels in any way similar, but aesthetically this looks interesting.

Yes, you got it.

It's possible that however your ISP provided router is designed, it's got some hidden port forward configuration. If that router has an option typically referred to as "bridge mode", you could bypass its routing features altogether and use your own router instead.

ISPs often have clauses about using their residential internet for hosting servers or exposed services, and it's possible your has taken a different approach to mitigating traffic from those sources.

If you can, I'd recommend using your own router rather than what the ISP provides.

If I understand correctly, it sounds like you moved from an ISP that uses CGNAT to one that does not. Does your ISP provide a modem? If so, are you relying on the software features of that modem, or do you have a router inbetween?

I'm using Fedora 43 Plasma under Wayland, with the regular Discord flatpak. Vesktop works, but I recall some oddly hacky things I had to do to make it work

It works and has worked for a while. Application specific sharing for audio is an oddity though, since it can't seem to isolate and you get all desktop audio excluding discord

Because they actually are. There's effectively no rules barring women from competing on regular esports teams, it just never seems to happen. There isn't the same drive or interest, and there isn't enough in the overall culture to support it. This isn't some kind of proposed physical separation, it's intended to drive interest and representation from a competitive standpoint.

It's best practice to keep it separate, and that mostly just has to do with how the different file systems are handled.

These Zen-esque chips have come up before, though it sounds like this might be the first time they've been used in a marketed product. A couple other companies born out of the remnants of Centaur also seemed to have borrowed architectural notes from the early Zen CPUs, potentially as a result of their competitors like Hygon making that deal with AMD almost 10 years ago. It's the first time one seems to be almost a boilerplate 1700x though.

This is convenient. I've found that for most software though, especially legacy software, Heroic seems to work more often than not. Not having to configure some of the parameters myself that are required to get DX7 games to scale properly is appreciated.

In 6th grade, my teacher read us the same book mentioned in the Tumblr post. It's called "We all fall down", and it's written by Eric Walters and is a fictional account. At the time, the book had only come out a couple years prior. It's a good book. It's well informed, well written, and it never talked about who was to blame, only the tragedy that occured. The author is also Canadian and he wrote a sequel that covers the aftermath and emotional trauma for survivors and their family members. It's not a book about the attack, it's a book about loss, grief and shock, and about how people can come together to heal from it.

Of course, it sure doesn't sound like this teacher was trying to send that message. I just wanted to shout out a good book.

Yep. Two different platforms with different developers
