I have a small 40+cm deep niche in my "computer room" which I'd like to fill with a bookcase with glass doors or a storage unit to keep the stuff in. The ideal color would be either black/dark grey or dark wood finish.

The niche is around 106cm in width, so I searched for a bit for 100cm-wide options in IKEA. And I'm baffled:

  • BILLY seems to come in 40 and 80 cm widths only
  • BESTA is 60cm wide and multiplies
  • PAX comes in 50 and 100cm sizes (hooray!) but they only have full-height doors, and the glass option is non-transparent and white only

The only other idea I could come up with is to use black METOD 200cm tall kitchen cabinets, with additional cabinets as toppers, combining the 40c

It seems that since around the beginning of July the option to turn live captions on in a meeting disappeared.

It used to be available in meeting window in More -> Language and speech -> Turn on live captions. It seems that this option is now available only when voice-calling people, in case of scheduled meetings the only option in Language and speech is Turn on Speaker Coach.

There's also a promisiong option in More -> Record and transcribe -> Start transcription, but it's permanently greyed out for me.

Any one else has this issue? Did the option move somewhere else? Maybe it's been acknowledged by Microsoft? I only found [this issue](https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/msteams/f

Is it possible to establish an EoIP tunnel between two mikrotik devices, of which only one has a public IP address? All the examples/guides seem to show the simple configuration where each of the routers specifies the IP of the other end of the tunnel.

What I wanted to achieve is simply to connect two private LANs so that they would be bridged over EoIP, but in my case only one of the gateways has a public IP address. I imagine it could be possible to set it up so that the "public" gateway works like a "server" listening to connections, while the private gateway connects to the public IP address to establish and maintain a two-way tunnel.

Is it achievable on mikrotik devices via EoIP or ma

I need some advice about how to mentally approach certain situations so that I do not lose heart towards games I enjoy.

I bought Hades the other day during Nintendo's February sale and I've been enjoying it immensely since then. I always had a thing for roguelite games, having maxed out Enter the Gungeon and having a soft spot for other games in the genre. So, after about 10 hours in Hades, I have one thought: I'm a dumbass for not trying it out sooner. The gameplay, the overall design, and above anything - the captivating backstories of side characters that make every failed run feel rewarding... all this struck a chord with me and I already know what I'll be grinding for weeks to come.

DGR put a "bingo" video today and that inspired me to make a randomized SMM bingo board generator, with many more categories! Check the TL;DR below for the link.

Currently the site generates a 5x5 board in the SMM2 color scheme with the middle cell being a "free spot", but it's ready to accomodate larger and smaller boards (3x3, 7x7, 9x9).

You can click on the SMM2 logo to hide it to maximize screen real estate.

You can right-click on the cogwheel to hide it.

I would be grateful for any feedback and for any ideas for more categories/events!

Some things I already have in mind:

• shareable board URLs (coming very soon)

• configurable randomizing, i.e. possibility to disable specific

I'm interested in buying original Pixel XL (NOT Pixel XL 2), Australian Model, and I'm concerned if there are any differences in the phone internals itself compared to the international edition.

I visit Europe a lot (business travels, sometimes visiting family), and I'm worried about the supported LTE/4G bands - they're slightly different in European Union than in Australia.

I'm not at all concerned about charger adapters, cables, accessories etc. - I only want to know if the phone will work in EU.

I tried emailing Dick Smith and Kogan but they responded with a general, vague reply along the lines of "our phones are brand new, unlocked and can be used on most international networks". S

I have been trying to remember a movie which I've seen as a child (the movie is probably from 70s or 80s), which had one distinct image imprinted into my memory:

A line of slaves, probably chained together, is being thrown into a lava pit. There was a circular hole in the floor of the temple or cave it was taking place to, and in the birds-eye view you could see that it was a lava pit as its bottom was bright yellow/orange. The slaves were struggling and protesting but all the people in the line were forced into the hole, either as a punishment or a sacrifice.

Does it ring a bell with anyone?

For instance, how did Marie Curie realize that the new substances she found - radium and polonium - were actually pure elements, rather than compounds? When Michael Faraday liquified oxygen, did he realize that it was an element? How and when did people realize that "liquified nitrogen" was of different nature than "liquified air"?

I'm trying to find a music video which is driving my girlfriend crazy because she can't remember the name of the song.

  • it's from around year 2000
  • the video features a boy and girl, probably lovers, enjoying time together on an island, with palm trees, beach, etc.
  • the girl in the video has long hair
  • the boy is bare-chested ;)
  • the time-of-day is rather full day rather than evening
  • the couple is swimming, fishing, running on the beach, swimming on the boat
  • there was a scene where the boy intentionally scared the girl by pretending he was drowning by staying under water for a long time
  • the girl in the video is NOT the singer (the beach girl is light-skinned, the singer is more

Platform(s): PC DOS

Genre: RPG / adventure

Estimated year of release: 1986-1992

Graphics/art style: 320x200, probably 16 colors (maybe more), side-view and map

Mechanics: I don't really remember the actual purpose of the game (I vaguely remember it was probably an RPG), but I distinctly remember two aspects of game, which probably served as "minigames" rather than the core gameplay:

  • to travel from place A to place B, you played a "horse travel" minigame, where your horse was galloping from left to right (on its own), the terrain moved under your feet and you had to jump at the right time over rocks etc; I think it was possible to select the actual road to start the travel (in a sort
