You could probably buy another cheap router and connect it to the first one using an ethernet cable. Set the second router to access point mode, and disable wifi on the first router (some routers have a physical button for that). You'll be able to connect only to the second router using wifi, but still use the first router with a physical connection.

So you can sue that moose for damages when it jumps in front of your car.

He should be given all the time he needs to truly realize that... In an italian jail.

Just by taking a glance at this list I can see I already have at least 80% of the games, if not 90%. I've been looking through the Steam shop and there just aren't many good deals this year, that haven't already been on a steep discount.

There's a bot I've been seeing these past couple of days that is constantly reposting posts with the title cut off in half. Like, it'd just cut it off mid sentence and replace the rest with three dots. I think it's called @L4s@lemmy.world

The only thing we can do is wait and see. It's only three days from now. My personal belief is that there is definitely going to be an influx of new users, but that number won't be too big or unmanageable.

I definitely will! Actually have it downloaded and just sitting on my Kindle. I should really get to it one of these days.

We'd usually gather in the living room and watch movies together as a family, and Lord of the Rings trilogy quickly became a fan favourite. (still rewatching it annually!)

After that I played Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King and Battle For Middle Earth 2, although I'm not sure which one I played first.

We also had the Lord of the Rings animated cartoon on a CD, which was unfinished IIRC.

Only years later have I finally read the Hobbit (found a great annotated version in the library), but I've yet to read the LOTR.

It's due to the way getchar() and console input work. When you enter "abcdCTRL+D" on the keyboard, here's what happens:

  • abcd characters are added to the stdin buffer and consumed by getchar()
  • CTRL+D (or EOF on Unix, CTRL+Z on Windows) is left in the input buffer (it's not yet consumed by getchar()!))
  • The console is waiting for more input, and the next time you press ENTER or CTRL+D the previous one will be consumed by getchar()

Think about this scenario: What happens if you only enter "abcd" and not press anything else? The program will still be waiting for more input. It needs to receive a signal telling it to stop with the input and proceed with the code execution. But if you press enter, it won't automatically add a new line to the string, because the new line character is still in the input buffer.

My router died a couple of days ago (using mobile data to post this) do I have to play offline games... Good thing I installed a bunch of games on GoG just in case. Tried out Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis this morning, currently clearing the tutorial dungeon in Daggerfall Unity.

The entire game is basically exploring dungeons and killing dragons.
