#dnd movie advance screening 13 March in Queensland Australia https://www.eventcinemas.com.au/EventsFestivals/DungeonsAndDragonsAdvScreening
It is annoying that so few #Microsoft #Azure services support #ipv6 but I'll accept that. What really irks me is the features that don't work at all with dual stack enabled, e.g. when adding a virtual network to a Function App it didn't work until I found the limitation "The integration virtual network can't have IPv6 address spaces defined". Not supporting it is fine; not working when it is enabled is just really bad.

My programming hot take of the day is that your user model shouldn't contain your password hash field.
It should be a on a separate table and web app tutorials should go through the effort of putting it on a separate table.
Because eventually you're going to log or serialize the user model in a way that is going to accidentally leak the password hash.
And while systematic log redaction is nice, it's much harder than simply not storing the two things with each other.

BTW, mastodon has thoroughly eclipsed Twitter as the meeting place for developers and clear-thinking users. I don't imagine you'll see too many more Twitter links from me.

And lo, the entire D&D 5th edition System Reference Document has been published under a Creative Commons license. At the end of the day that’s one of the most culturally significant CC releases ever. Wild. Thanks to all who advocated. #TTRPG #CreativeCommons

Ahh... I mean sure. But only a melon would publish under 1.0a at this point. The Creative Commons for the D&D SRD is rather more relevant.
Oh! Which means that when Level Up takes the plunge you'll get the full rules for D&D 5e AND everything under Level Up 5e which is _rather more generous_ and offers rather more support.

So @montecook, are MCG now going to release the #Cypher core system under #creativecommons , and join such great games as Blades in the Dark, Dungeon World, Gumshoe, and Fate?
The #srd is such a small amount of content that putting it under #creativecommons has only benefits, and zero cost -- rules can't be copyrighted, and the #ogl was perpetual. Many other games already use CC. Negative association with brand doesn't make sense, as the SRD doesn't contain any brand stuff.
Another upside, is that it leapfrogs the #opendnd and #orc crowd -- so are Paizo #pathfinder, @peginc@savageworlds.social #SavageWorlds, Chaosium #basicroleplay all now going to move to Creative Commons as well? That would be great.

I got TeslaMate (https://github.com/adriankumpf/teslamate) up and running via docker, so I can start collecting some data from my new car, and just did my first trip (to the shops at lunch).
Just a simple docker compose deploy, with PostgreSQL for the database, Grafana for the reporting, and Mosquitto (MQTT) for integration.
It runs on my own local server (QNAP NAS), but could be your own server in the cloud (you would need to add a secure proxy in front for access), and calls the Tesla API for realtime data.

Of a half dozen pages on how to remove dual boot Linux (I'm giving an old computer to someone else) only one of them had a sanity check to change the default boot loader first, and make sure it was working (reboot a few times) before deleting the Linux partition. All the rest said to delete Linux first, then try and repaid/fix the boot, which seems quite crazy! The safe article: https://itsfoss.com/uninstall-ubuntu-linux-windows-dual-boot/

Took me a while, but just realised the Tesla models are based on l33t -- they even have t-shirt/clothes with S3XY on them. Nice.
