If you export it “wrong” once, you have to change the generated exe name, or windows will refuse to use the new icon.

Sounds like you just need to clear the icon cache. It’s been a minute since I’ve written Windows apps, so I don’t remember that process, but I’m sure google could help you out.

Programs compiled “from scratch” don’t have an icon…

As someone that wrote Windows applications for a living, that’s wrong. You just have to add a resource file and your icon.

Media server: Alexandria
Firewall: Hadrian

I think there’s a bug causing threads that don’t have an image to pull a random thumbnail. I’ve seen a lot of unrelated thumbnails the last couple of days, but this is the first NSFW one.

Man, I hate that BlueTooth doesn’t have an equivalent of “line-out” that isn’t affected by the host devices’ volume settings. It’s so annoying when I can barely hear my music because I turned the volume way down on my phone while watching a video late last night.

That’s a ceramic. Not exactly what people mean when they say “aluminum.” I mean, if that’s considered aluminum, then so is sapphire.

Yo dawg…

There is a such a thing as an affirmative defense, though. An affirmative defense allows a person to commit an act that would otherwise be illegal under certain circumstances. However, as the name implies, an affirmative defense has to be argued by the defense. The burden is on the defense to prove that they acted under the circumstances permitted.

Consider murder, for instance. Self-defense is usually an affirmative defense. The prosecutor’s only burden is to prove that you killed someone. You have to demonstrate that you were acting in self defense in order to avoid the guilty verdict for murder.

So @vettnerk is asking a good question: will it be assumed that the doctor acted in good faith, or bad faith? Does the defense have to justify the abortion, or does the prosecutor have to demonstrate that it wasn’t necessary?

Has ending on a cliff-hanger ever worked to get a show renewed?

I don’t know how it is in practice, but conceptually clearing a jam in a 40mm grenade thrower sounds nerve-wracking.

I’ve got an older 3900X that’s Zen 2, but I’m otherwise clear, too.

It’s kind of hard to figure out which Zen # a CPU falls under, so here’s the Wiki page listing all Zen 2 CPUs.

Heat pump water heaters already exist, but I think they’re pretty expensive compared to gas/resistive heat.

I wouldn’t be surprised if electric tankless water heaters are indeed infeasible under this mandate. Heat pumps generally aren’t powerful, and tankless heaters require enormous amounts of power while in use.

I’m a month or so into switching from Windows 10 to Ubuntu. I’ve never lasted this long in prior attempts to switch over.

Gaming has been quite good. Steam just works for 99% of the games I’ve tried, with the 1% being one or two minor bugs in games that otherwise worked fine. Lutris, on the other hand, did not work at all. 0% success rate installing or running games.

Linux does still seem brittle and/or unnecessarily complicated, though. For example, I have a super common nvidia card, and my first post-install experience was having to boot into safe mode to fix the drivers. Then Ubuntu updated the drivers and my screens didn’t come back up. I had to hard-reset to get them back. And I have yet to get NUT installed and configured correctly so I can have the PC power down gracefully when the UPS runs low, something which is trivial in Windows.

Is all the frustration worth it to have an OS that isn’t selling me ads and trying to move me to a cloud account? Probably.

For me it’s Fusion 360. The launcher for it opens your browser to log you in via the Web. Wine doesn’t seem to support that.

DCS has some sort of time/zone issue preventing me from logging in.

My MX Master scroll wheel behaves oddly.

Other than that it’s been not awful since I switched to Linux last month.
