I just looked it up on Wikipedia.

The extreme ultraviolet and x-ray radiation from solar flares is absorbed by the daylight side of Earth’s upper atmosphere, in particular the ionosphere, and does not reach the surface.

What else should I know?

Wdym too late? Is there something you could have done if you knew “soon enough”?

The drive with the game files is mounted.

Where is it mounted? Try navigating to that mountpoint, not to the device itself.

Most seed finding is done by the Minecraft@Home community by very technical people using very specific parts of what they can tell about a world, such as the exact position and type of certain trees. I dont think its possible to do that from what someone remembers, as there would be billions of seeds matching that even if it were computationally doable.

I really don’t think that the command line is a uniform interface. Every command has its own syntax, its own take on what its switches mean, its own take on regexes/globs and so on. Moving and editing files is something completely different: one is a simple command to move a file elsewhere, the other is a whole experience which replaces the command line with something that looks completely different and is controlled completely differently. What they do have in common is just the medium - the terminal.

Many developers of command line tools try to at least keep a similar design language as the rest of the world, but it is far from perfect. A lot of these interfaces are like they are for mostly historical reasons without proper planning of the user interface, so imho even something like Material Design is already closer to being the “same interface” in the GUI world than the various command line interfaces are.

we can’t simply reuse the command line

We absolutely can and some of us do. I often manage my files, todo list, etc. in Termux. Its not always the best thing to do, but I like that I can keep a consistent interface no matter what device I am using. Its still the same terminal, just on a smaller screen with a worse keyboard.

Well, the fact they emit objects doesn’t really help that much with the user interface. This just means that the standard input and output of commands is (usually) more unified and parse-able. I really like the idea, and have seen multiple attempts at it including PowerShell, however none have reached the level of usability that the good old *NIX shells provide.

Id love to see an open source attempt at it

Here you go!

I’d be happy with a smartphone equivalent where the differences are similar to command line tools having different syntax.

My point was that I think we have that already. The medium is a touch screen, and apps have over time adapted to that the same way they have to the terminal. Here we scroll by swiping up and down, move between tabs by swiping to the side, etc. All held together by system-wide gesture navigation. And yea, every app does stuff differently, and so does every terminal one.

This only furthers my point, that things could be even better using the same principles, without legacy baggage.

I feel like this is exactly what Google was attempting to do with Material Design: a good, consistent interface / design language. It really was a fairly fresh start using what we learned from the smartphone apps that came before, with the design done intentionally. What do you think they missed?

Another thing to keep in mind is that the terminal is built around text and files, while the GUI is not. You cant expect every problem to be cleanly / ergonomically solve-able inside an Android app, just like you cant expect a good Snapchat / Instagram client in your terminal. There are file manager apps, there are text editors, there are todo lists, but the terminal is just a better platform for some tasks while worse for others.

Can confirm, very easy to setup clients. And since its not a VPN but a VLAN, you wont run into problems connecting between different clients.

This is pretty much open-source Hamachi.

Im not sure how difficult it is to setup a Tailscale client, honestly.

The Zerotier setup is just installing and joining a network by an id. The Windows version has a bit of a GUI, where you have to right-click on a status bar icon, click Join network, paste in the id and join. The Linux version of the client has a cli, which is imho even better, as you can just send them a whole command to copy into the terminal.

I admin a Zerotier network for a bunch of kids that wanna play Minecraft, and they havent had many problems setting up.

There is a bunch of information on self-hosting the whole system, but Ive honestly never tried any of that. It was just nice that this was “just the open-source LogMeIn Hamachi with a superior implementation of everything”.

And the red color on a somewhat-dark gray background with compression artifacts really does not help.

WIPocket,
@WIPocket@lemmy.world avatar

I mean, it might compress it (Im using Eternity on lemmy.world, no clue if images get compressed on federation or if my client chooses a lower quality).

That red color cant have much better contrast on a less compressed image tho.

Which streaming service? I last used yt-dlp with the –live-from-start option on Youtube, it worked fine there.

Isnt that Chrome? Firefox shows an infinity sign past 100.

Lost minecraft license after migrating my account

I migrated my account back in June, got a mail saying it was successful and didn’t think more of it. Today after not playing MC since 2019 I felt like playing again after seeing that Tekkit was back. However when I log into my Microsoft account, my only Microsoft account, all I get is the option to buy the game again, even...

WIPocket,
@WIPocket@lemmy.world avatar

Did you manage find that mail again? There you can check if you remember using the Microsoft account right. Also, if you provide their email about getting Minecraft on a Microsoft account, you can try to claim that it isnt a “migration related issue” but a “microsoft account related issue” or something.

If you also remember your username, you can check if its still taken and registered. Look yourself up at NameMC.

Good luck.

Ive been using Yggdrasil to connect my devices. Unfortunately this doesnt autoconnect wifi, and doesnt have an IM app built for it. It does however allow you to use pretty much anything that uses a direct IPv6 connection, so its really useful to be able to ssh into my devices nearly whenever. Lately Ive been looking at Reticulum and the LXMF protocol built on top of it. I mostly just tried the Android Sideband app, but ran into battery usage issues.

Im not aware of any. Most clones have a very different architecture (and programming language, most clones dont run on the JVM) than Minecraft, even tho some projects go for feature parity and support the original Minecraft multiplayer protocol.

So, no licencing problem Im aware of, mods are free to be shared under whatever licence and many are FOSS, but a technical problem.

!0 is shorter than true, !1 is shorter than false. You are looking at minified javascript.

Yes. I want my old version of an app that will never stop working when someone decides it should. Im ok with paying to upgrade, Im not ok with apps that needlessly need an internet connection and that stop working when someone shuts down their license server.

WIPocket,
@WIPocket@lemmy.world avatar

They dont degrade the service until you pay. They dont lock features behind a paywall, they dont have ads. They beg you to pay, they dont extort you. Why does it matter that they seem desperate?

WIPocket,
@WIPocket@lemmy.world avatar

Ok, so? As I said, Im ok with paying for an upgrade. I am not ok with an app not working offline when the only online functionality of it is license checking. I am not ok with an app not working not because the service it connects to changed their API, but because the developer of the app itself said so.

@WIPocket@lemmy.world avatar

Cant they? Sure, they would have to make up new users instead of simply saying a number, but what is actually preventing that?

T-UI. Probably not everyones cup of tea, but its hard to go back.
