yle.fi Turun jokirannan uudet pyörätiet maksoivat odotettua vähemmän
Pyöräteiden rakentaminen Itäiselle Rantakadulle maksoi kaupungille viisi ja puoli miljoonaa. Summa alitti kustannusarvion noin 700 000 eurolla.
I haven't read the books. Is there any background for choosing vodka martinis in particular? As opposed to, say plain vodka. Was it just a more socially acceptable dose of alcohol?
Yeah I'm sure there is an audience out there. But you guys probably get your inspiration from somewhere other than films, and don't leave your glasses half full.
Keep at it 👍🏻
James Bond is responsible for many wasted vodka martinis
They seem so good in the movies, but actually taste mostly just like straight vodka, which most people aren't going to enjoy.
Thunks, Sharing, Laziness: The Haskell Heap Visualized – Joachim Breitner
A really nice video visualizing how different data structures link together in the heap. Focus is on infinite and cyclic structures, and how to leverage them.
Native in what sense? As I understand it that uses a VM of some sort
I opted for Under the Pendulum Sun from the link I posted. It's available as a DRM free ebook from the publishers page: https://angryrobotbooks.com/books/under-the-pendulum-sun/
Let's see how it turns out.. No reason to stop recommending things though!
Thanks for the recommendation.
Reading suggestions from all over the place, it seems like Lawrence is a staple of the genre.

Standalone Grimdark recommendations
cross-posted from: https://sopuli.xyz/post/23425496
Looking for some self-contained grimdark books to read. Most of the genre seems to be the form of trilogies or even longer series, but I'm not looking to start a long project right now. Just a single story within one book, and then move on to other stuff (unless I get hooked..)
The internet didn't come up completely short on this topic. This article contains some recommendations already.

Thanks this is great!
In general I find that newsoutlets use way too little maps. Like to they really expect me to memorize all the street names even in my own city??

3.5" and 5.25" USB-C front panels
There's nothing wrong with my old PC case, except I'd like some USB-Cs in the front panel.
The panel itself is unfortunately integrated, but it's possible to get additional front panels to 3.5" and 5.25" slots (the ones traditionally used for CDs etc). Here's one example from akasa with at least one USB-C: https://akasa.co.uk/search.php?seed=AK-ICR-36
It's perfectly fine if I have to just disconnect the integrated USB-A ports due to lack of motherboard connectors. They suck anyway.
So, please share recommendations for such devices. Let's not let those old cases go to waste!

Excellent resource for USB4 M.2 enclosures.
Be aware though, the word is these things run hot.[^chip]
[^chip]: Apparently it's not just the drives. The chips themselves heat up.
Beginner resources?
It would be nice if there would be some basic info readily available here. E.g. a pinned post or just some links in the sidebar.
Questions in my head right now:
- What to look for when buying balisongs?
- Materials
- Bearings or no?
- Latch or no?
- Size
- Weight
- Some concrete recommendations
- Training
- Something for utility, not just flipping
- Available outside US too
- Guides or videos for getting started

Plague Tale: Requiem, performance degradation
I've used to be able to play this game just fine at around medium graphic settings through Proton (GE), but today when I launched it again after a while the performance was just really poor.
Like mouse-moves-at-30fps-in-the-menu-poor.
There have been plenty of package upgrades since my last launch including plasma 6, proton and the game itself. So I don't really have any particular suspects here.
Running Arch with AMD GPU. Wayland/Xorg didn't seem to make a difference.
Has anyone else experienced similar performance degrading in this or another game lately?
TIL: There's an ASCII Art wikipage
