Monopoly Deal on the other hand is an excellent game, quick to play (10-15 minutes), works well for 2, 3 or 4 players and the rules are clear and simple. Not to mention how cheap it is, usually less than $5.


Yes, Amazon had it as a stocking-filler a few Christmases ago at $4. The card version is fast and requires no board, so can be played with kids aged 8+, on a restaurant counter/ park bench/ bus/ plane/ whatever. There is a small amount of strategy and remembering what has been dealt, but BoardGameArena rates it easy (complexity 1.3/5).


Monopoly Junior is also reasonable for kids. We have two sets of regular Monopoly but avoid them.



Syncthing is great (I use it daily!) but I'm not sure it does the Dropbox/NextCloud thing that BTFS does where you can see remote files and download them on access. Syncthing rather just syncs folders as far as I can tell.


Syncthing experience is greatly improved if you also host your own discovery server, and if you can port forward.

Pretty minor to do, but, it's a big speed increase.


Look up a south asian grocer for Soan Papdi, it's a similar sweet that's not too sugary (by south asian standards anyway) : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soan_papdi


IIUC, the salient points are: - target area was very small (500m x 500m) for CY2. With CY3 they've made it bigger at 4km x 4km, allows for larger margin of error.

- CY2 lander had limited leeway in fixing issues, by design. CY3 has more and has landed itself, no assistance from base.

- CY2 lander had limited time to fix itself, apparently it was just a few seconds short of making it fine


+ Software limited the upper limits of thrust correction/per second to 10% of what was possible.

In other words, it could perhaps correct itself in those many seconds but was allowed only small degrees of change.

Great game. One suggestion is to present fake flags as another toggle. Helps spot real vs fake flags

Have you tried KeyCloak?

Minor improvement, cc can be replaced by S


Is shift-S faster than cc? The keys are farther away from each other, but I guess you can get some bonus by pressing them "in parallel"... For me, cc feels faster. Although I might feel differently if it was, say pp vs shift-S.


> Is shift-S faster than cc? The keys are farther away from each other

In my case, my left pinky rests on the shift and my left ring-finger rests on the "s", so shift-S is just pressing the keys my fingers are already resting on.


Your pinky rests on the shift key? My touch-typing teacher would have smacked my fingers with a ruler. :)


I guess it's a habit from using the left Shift (and left Ctrl) a lot more frequently than the "A". If I just used the keyboard for writing text, perhaps resting on "A" would make more sense for me.


Nothing wrong with that! Some of us were indoctrinated to rest our hands in a certain way, no matter what kind of typing we do. :)


cc keeps {my} cursor at the current indent. S does not.
