It depends on how fancy of a website you are trying to make. But check out something like Hugo or Jekyll. I haven’t used Jekyll personally but have used Hugo. There are plenty of templates to get you started depending the type of content you are planning on putting up.
And the best part is you can host the site for free on GitHub or Gitlab, so the domain name is the only cost.
Schools will be closed through the end of the week, the superintendent said.
Only in America can 2 of your teachers and 2 of your classmates be shot dead. And they are like we are only giving you 2 days off while we clean this up, but hey we will be ready to go Monday.
I guess along with those active shooter drills they also got an active shooter cleanup plan.
The thing that I don’t understand about self driving is the need for it to be this high tech super computer thing.
Especially in the case of a tunnel why not just have it drive on a wire like robots and fork trucks in factories do currently.
Outside of the system to track the wire all you need are the sensors which a lot of new cars already have for keeping distance with variable cruise control and automatic braking.
Or hell it’s a tunnel just make it a conveyor belt like the car wash.
Or i don’t know, maybe some sort of electric underground tram system. You can even give it a fancy sci-fi name like “rapid subterranean transit system.”
We all had commercials in our dreams but you don’t see us running off to buy brand name merchandise at low low prices.
The MPC is a standalone unit. It is a DAW so you don’t need a PC. You can make an entire song on it without ever needing a pc or external editing software, you can connect instruments mics right to it. It’s basically a portable studio.
You can even download updates, instruments, sample kits right on the unit.
It is annoying tho since they started adding features to the PC version of the software that aren’t available in the standalone versions. But you get access to them if you own the hardware.
Cmdchallenge is similar to Linux survival. But is mostly command line basics like moving around directories, searching, etc. It also gives a list of solutions that people have used for each exercise, which is interesting just to see different ways of doing things.
If you have libreOffice installed I believe you can edit pdfs in Draw.
You can also try Inkscape.

To the Board of Directors at OpenAl,
OpenAl is the world’s leading Al company. We, the employees of OpenAl, have developed the best models and pushed the field to new frontiers. Our work on Al safety and governance shapes global norms. The products we built are used by millions of people around the world. Until now, the company we work for and cherish has never been in a stronger position.
The process through which you terminated Sam Altman and removed Greg Brockman from the board has jeopardized all of this work and undermined our mission and company. Your conduct has made it clear you did not have the competence to oversee OpenAl.
When we all unexpectedly learned of your decision, the leadership team of OpenAl acted swiftly to stabilize the company. They carefully listened to your concerns and tried to cooperate with you on all grounds. Despite many requests for specific facts for your allegations, you have never provided any written evidence. They also increasingly realized you were not capable of carrying out your duties, and were negotiating in bad faith.
The leadership team suggested that the most stabilizing path forward - the one that would best serve our mission, company, stakeholders, employees and the public - would be for you to resign and put in place a qualified board that could lead the company forward in stability. Leadership worked with you around the clock to find a mutually agreeable outcome. Yet within two days of your initial decision, you again replaced interim CEO Mira Murati against the best interests of the company. You also informed the leadership team that allowing the company to be destroyed “would be consistent with the mission.”
Your actions have made it obvious that you are incapable of overseeing OpenAl. We are unable to work for or with people that lack competence, judgement and care for our mission and employees. We, the undersigned, may choose to resign from OpenAl and join the newly announced Microsoft subsidiary run by Sam Altman and Greg Brockman. Microsoft has assured us that there are positions for all OpenAl employees at this new subsidiary should we choose to join. We will take this step imminently, unless all current board members resign, and the board appoints two new lead independent directors, such as Bret Taylor and Will Hurd, and reinstates Sam Altman and Greg Brockman.
You better download 2 cuz I’m not sharing.
There are watches that have an actual 24hr face as you describe the normal 6 position is 12 and 12 becomes 24. Which I think are fairly uncommon, I don’t recall ever seeing one in person.
More common to just see analog watches with dual time markings say a 24 under the 12.
An image search along the lines of “24hr watch face” will show some examples.
I am sure there are plenty of people with more technical knowledge on the subject, but I had something similar happen not too long ago.
My issue was in the bios on my laptop had secure boot enabled which wouldn’t allow gnu/linux to boot.
Caused me a huge headache. But after I disabled it and went through the install with the USB again it booted right up. Might be worth checking.

Hello everyone!
It’s been a while. I hope you are all well.
Unity has recently taken some actions to change their pricing policy that I - like most of the community - do not condone in any way.
I have been using Unity for more than 10 years and the product has been very important to me. However, Unity is a public company. Unfortunately that means that it has to serve shareholder interests. Sometimes those interests align with what is best for the developers and sometimes they do not. While this has been the case for a while, these recent developments have made it increasingly clear.
Unity has pulled back on the first version of their new pricing policy and made some changes to make it less harmful to small studios, but it is important to remember that the realities of a public company are not going to change.
Luckily, there are other ways of structuring the development of software. Instead of a company owning and controlling software with a private code base, software can be open source (with a public code base that anyone can contribute to) and publicly owned. Blender - a stable 3D modelling software in the game dev community - is free and open source. In fact some of the largest and most advanced software in the world is built on top of open source technology like Linux.
The purpose of this post is not to denounce Unity because of a misstep, to criticise any of its employees or to tell anyone to “jump ship”. Instead I want to highlight the systematic issue of organizing large software projects under a public company and to let you know that there are alternatives.
I believe that the way to a stronger and more healthy game dev community is through software created by the community for the community. Software that is open source, democratically owned and community funded.
Many of you have been asking for us to produce new tutorial series on alternative engines such as Godot, which is currently the most advanced open source and community funded game engine. I don’t know yet if this is something that we can realise and when.
I can only say that I have started learning Godot.
Best of luck to all of you with your games, no matter what engine they might be built on!
Sincerely,
Asbjern Thirslund - Brackeys
In case anyone was scrolling by and is interested the quote is a bit misleading out of context, Marx isn’t saying we should do this, he is more saying that capitalism requires “us” to do this, while telling us if we just stop eating avocado toast we too could become part of the billionaire class. While of course they themselves would never live without these supposed needless things.
Read it in context here Need, Production and Division of Labor, this link is directly to the section the quote is from but in my opinion the formatting isn’t as good.
