Came here for this. You can basically use LARP as an excuse to further almost any creative hobby. For PAX Unplugged I made a LARP Escape Room, and that was an excuse for me to learn how to use Arduino controllers and wire hardware in order to make a robot puzzle for the event.

It depends on how many versions I am away from the latest, and how much I've messed with the distro.

Usually I stay on an Ubuntu LTS and upgrade from LTS to LTS when that upgrade path is ready. I upgraded from 20.04 to 22.04 this way.

But this time I wanted Pipewire in 24.04, and didn't want to wait for a 22.04 to 24.04 upgrade to be ready. I'm using a bluetooth headset and Pulseaudio is pretty terrible at switching headset profiles. Between not wanting to upgrade an upgraded install, and having messed with Pulseaudio quite a bit trying to get it working, I went ahead and clean installed 24.04 and moved some configs over.

You might want to look into taking an older car and paying to get someone to install a conversion kit. If you have an existing car you could see if there's a compatible kit that'll save you some money.

“An atomic clock on the moon will tick at a different rate than a clock on Earth,” said Kevin Coggins, Nasa’s top communications and navigation official. “It makes sense that when you go to another body, like the moon or Mars, that each one gets its own heartbeat.”

It's possible that they don't end up putting atomic clocks on the moon, but it's on the table, they haven't worked out the details yet.

The point of the lunar time zone is not to have a specific UTC offset like other timezones. The moon would have its own set of atomic clocks, and time could be coordinated with earth based on ratio instead of offset.

The fact that reddit cares is mostly used for harassment told me all I needed to know about how they're handling their community.

I don't know of a good way to route other application's traffic through the VPN container with them being in docker containers, unless you use some intermediary setup. That's why I have socks proxies routed through the VPN, so I can selectively put traffic through it. If the app supports a socks proxy you could do it that way. At the least you could use Proxychains to do so if the program does TCP networking.

So it's always going to be used for technical things, but not necessarily development things. I use it for both.

For my home server setup I have docker setup like this:

1. A VPN docker container
2. A transmission (bittorrent client) container, using the VPN's network
3. An nginx (web server) container, which provides access to the transmission container
4. A 3proxy socks proxy container, using the VPN's network
5. A tor client container
6. A 3proxy socks proxy container, using the tor container's network

Usually it's pretty hard to say "these specific programs and only these should run over my VPN". Docker makes that easy. I can just attach containers to the same network as my VPN container, and their traffic will all go over the VPN. And then with my socks proxies I can selectively put my browser traffic over either the VPN or Tor, using extensions like FoxyProxy. I watch wrestling through my vpn because it's cheaper overseas and has better streaming options, so I have those specific sites set to route through my VPN socks proxy. And I have all onion links set to go through my Tor proxy.
