Thanks for clarification, my unfounded assumption was obviously incorrect. There’s not much info about the AS 3112 type socket but it is, indeed, oriented that way

Both are probably upside down though, because I think the ground pin should be on top to protect against something slipping between the socket and the plug and resting on the pins potentially shorting them

Also for the flip switches down=off is a more common (expected) position

But then again it’s Australia we’re taking about, so maybe upside down was the point

Good. It voluntarily frees up a niche for a better solution

If what you are looking for is a virtual LAN network (like hamachi and tunngle used to be) then I suggest you check out ZeroTier. I had great success using that to easily LAN different machines together over the internet, including the ones on different continents.

Very stable, straightforward, doesn’t introduce much latency and everything you need is provided in a free tier. Ping, gaming, etc - all works well.

You use the website to administer the network but the clients can join just by using the network code.

Let me know if you run into any troubles with it and I’ll try to help you out.

That is fair. I’m just disappointed with the amount of people who buy the government propaganda, but that’s not a specifically russian problem.

Although when the government starts killing their neighbours justifying it “because they’re gay nazis” - that’s probably when the slightest bit of critical thinking should tell them that there’s something wrong with the government and not their neighbours.

Disappearances will continue for as long as the state is enabled to do whatever. It would be very foolish to feel secure only because of staying silent. But to realise that would as well require some critical thinking.

Around half a monthly salary for the low wage jobs. Maybe even less than that.

So, a slap in the face. But watch them thank the tzar instead of reaching for the pitchforks.

Almost like they get the ruler they deserve.

If those are russian-made then one is already broken and the other one is lost somewhere. As per tradition.

[…]Russia will station similar missiles within striking distance of the west.

Both of them?

The court wanted information that would allow it to identify who was behind the accounts in question that were uploading apparently pirated content.

The lack of cooperation from the Virgin Islands led him to take this “precautionary measure,” the judge said in Friday’s order.

It’s basically a self-hosted stream that moonlight connects to within your network. https://github.com/LizardByte/Sunshine/releases You still need any and all software that’ll actually be running on the server, but you can use sunshine either for streaming particular applications from it or just as a general all purpose remote access tool. So it’s like Parsec, only FOSS and imo works better too.

Switched to sunshine+moonlight from steam remote play. Works much better, especially on low end clients. And as a bonus you have full access, not just for steam.

Or maybe they don’t see it’s their place to gatekeep the store based on their own morals. If you start - where do you draw the line? Some examples like such games may be obvious, but there will be a lot more that are less so.

If people disagree with the message - nobody forces them to buy it after all and you can block any game from even showing up for you in the store, in my opinion it’s plenty enough from the valve’s part. I’d rather be the judge myself as to what I want and what I don’t want to see and play, rather than any corporation.

If anyone is targeting the civilians that would be the russian police state itself. The curtain simply displays things, not even actually discrediting anyone. And maybe that should add another little incentive for the russian people to check their attitude towards the government and the state of things. “It doesn’t concern me” works well only until it doesn’t.
