It is an old joke that I thought was very well known, at least for people that know about emacs, my mistake, but hey, Luck 10.000 of you, so here it goes:

“Emacs is a great operating system, lacking only a decent text editor”

I love insta ramen. I really do, and you can do a lot of variations, and I am not saying stuff that is like cook a meal and add ramen. Just simples stuff that is extra delicious.

For example, if I like the seasoning I sometimes save extra seasoning packages to make it extra seasoned.

You can make it and drain most or all water, add seasoning and butter and that is it, awesome.

You can drain some or all water and add heavy cream or even just milk, butter and extra seasoning. I like this chicken of beef bouillon, but any seasoning that you like works, just need to be something that dissolves easily and you don’t need to cook for a long time you extract flavor.

If you are feeling fancy you can add some hotdogs.

That is it, I love it and would eat more and pass on a lot of dishes for insta ramen but when I do people think I am only choosing ramen because I don’t like the other options, like a last resort, but cound not be further than the true. I tell people I really like it and prefer it, but they have a hard time believing me.

*And vim~~/nvim~~.

I am sorry? Are you suggesting that somehow an text editor has more functionality than a fucking OS?

People keep saying that but you have to realize that laws are only enforceable or even a thing when the mechanisms in place and society wants to enforce it. There is a bunch of outdated laws that everyone kinda decides to not enforce it anymore. And here we have all the 3 powers that should keep each other in check all working together. Most of Congress (both the Senate and the House of representative), the courts and the executive branch all supporting the government agenda, and it is both on all levels of government, local, state and federal. And to make it worse, all the media corporations that sometimes work as a 4th power also support it and close to half the population also supports the government. So it does not matter if it is legal or not.

GRIS

I know that you said multiplayer, but if I can be one more voice on single player games that you guys may enjoy playing in turns I strongly recommend GRIS. It is so beautiful and I think it suits itself well for shorter play sessions.

Some of the hardest part in software development are testing, validation, code review, is so tedious, the majority of people don’t like to do it so is hard to find qualified people and so on. This AI thing just put way more stress in the already dire part of the whole development.

Hey, I know this drug, it makes your snipe zoom more stable in Metal Gear Solid.

So, what you are saying is that you didn’t see them being summoned, just that the despawn takes a couple of hours. That makes sense otherwise it would be too op.

I don’t know if that is the reason but I wonder if the recent ruling that made Firefox loose on the cash income from Google as a default search engine has them doing a similar type of deal with AI companies, even Google, like, Firefox has a built-in interface for AI and the backend you can choose but the default one is one that some AI company pay a fee to be.

If that is the case I think it is fine, it is like a wink-wink situation, you have to have it enabled by default and with a default provider for it to be worth something for someone to pay for the privilege, and then the users can simply change it be gone with it without affecting the payout. (Unless the pay or renew pay has some metric like use statistics)

How parsing (as in programming languages and commands) works is so interesting and is so hard for people to grasp and is really interesting to see how what you think is obvious is not for most people. I saw it all the time when teaching cs102. It is so hard to explain the difference that a blank space makes and why sometimes it is necessary and why sometimes it is not.

That is all to say I find it really interesting and funny when OP says double pipe, because of course it looks like double pipe, you gonna tell me That || is something completely different than a single | ?

There was a video essay by Folding Ideas (From “the line goes up” fame) about a weird documentary narrated/hosted by Idris Elba, and If I am remembering it right it was basically a propaganda/ad film targeting people like peepers and that are skeptical of the government and such. So I believe there is at least a push to make gold more marketable and in fashion, like De beers did for diamonds.

I don’t know if I am allowed to link to outside content (because the rule of no reposting outside content) but in any case it should be easy to find for anyone interested.

But then there would be less garlic :(

I almost bought that keyboard, but never did in the end.

It was not most resources. It was just one SPE that was locket behind for the firmware.

I feel the standardization they mean is in the spec and not the specific build. Like, a lot of games are terrible optimized, not only on runtime but also in space needed, it is getting out of hand. But if you have to target a popular machine like steam deck or the steam machine that is not super high-end and have lower capacity storage you have no option but to put some attention on optimizing you game at least a little.

Then it adds barrier to entry. If it costs money it will be a problem for the more vulnerable population. If it is free and you can have as many as you want it is gonna be abused, if there is a limit it again starts to be a problem.

I always dread picking up a new game that is kinda demanding on the hardware because I hate to keep testing all graphical settings to have the best graphics with good fps. The least they could do is show a split scene with each setting on or off so you can judge with your eyes, but a button that you set the fps and the game crunches some numbers and benchmark to find the best quality graphics settings it can do at the target fps.

If it can adjust the graphics on demand would also be awesome because some games can have variable demands during gameplay.

Oddly enough I think that porn games are a little closer to do what you suggest because rewatch the cutscenes is kinda important it seems in that genre 😅
