The service is ok, but if you (rightfully) do not want to be tied to Cloudflare, take a look at Tailscale Funnels. Same concept, but from a company that values the user and their privacy. Also, for regular personal/small user base, free tier is more than enough. And you get a free .ts.net subdomain to use with your apps, if you need that.

Nice one. Got almost the exact number on third try.

As a man who used to have long hair for decades, this is just wrong. But also, usually using more than one shampoo + one conditioner is not going to make much difference.

Meet Baby Shark. Because… it kinda looks like a shark?

I made the jump recently, and although there are clear issues, I don’t see any reason to use windows as my primary gaming OS anymore. Some games still require some fiddling with proton versions, extra command line arguments, environment variables, etc. That is bad for the average user that just wants to click play and play. Also, I noticed that at least on my setup (alienware laptop with nvidia gpu), some games have clear performance issues compared to windows, mainly some UE games. But it’s not so bad to make me want to boot windows again.

And just some extra two cents: I’m still keeping a windows partition for those games that simply cannot run on linux, and it’s possible to keep your main library on the linux partition (I’m using btreefs) and use that same library on windows. You just have to install a driver on windows, and it works beautifully. Haven’t had any issues so far.

One more candidate: Mini Car Racing Not exactly dark or gritty, and also there doesn’t seem to be pickup audio clips

Have you looked at Excessive Speed? Very similar to death rally, but I’m not sure about the boostah clip…

Seems it has been re-released recently: store.steampowered.com/app/…/Excessive_Speed/

I am sorry, but it seems your Avowed is different from the one I am playing. I agree with your comment, but I am enjoying Avowed like I haven’t enjoyed any game in years! And barely any choices? Really? I just finished the first area (not the tutorial), and there were LOTS of meaningful choices! But speaking of the tutorial, there was a choice there that impacted certain future interactions. The R is definitely there in this RPG. I haven’t played a game where even the little choices matter as much as in this game!

Well, one possibility is using something known as Fabry-Perot filter. It allows an extremely narrow frequency to pass, due to multiple reflections and interferences inside the material. Put the light source material within this filter, and you get a laser. That’s essentially the main difference between a led and a semiconductor laser. The filter makes only a narrow band of the emission be “stuck” there, creating a feedback effect that eventually tends to infinity, and a good chunk of that power passes through the filter reflectors, which are intentionally not perfect.

Other than that, I don’t think there is a filter that could be as narrow as the line emission from vapor lamps. Maybe using metamaterials, but a laser would be so much cheaper and easier. A vapor laser would certainly get the job done, but they are large and hard to maintain.
