You’re approaching the turbaconepicentipede

For Valve, this is actually a more open way than they have historically done. Typically Valve publicly gives very little to no information on a project until it’s done or almost done.

Before I got laid off, I was told by my manager of the company I was contracted to that people higher than him were wondering why I hadn’t installed the copilot extension in vscode; he strongly recommended I do so. So I did install it. I then proceeded to immediately set the ignored file types to “*” (which, for those who might not know, is shorthand for “everything”.) I didn’t hear anything about it afterwards.

I used to contract with a company where it was almost ubiquitous for someone to start a text-based conversation with the entire message: “Hey…” — ellipses and everything. It was bad enough that other members of my company that were contracted to the same contract would jokingly add ellipses to random things when messaging each other.

It’s rounded to the nearest multiple of 10; it could be up to 5 (exclusively), and could still be listed as 0. It’s why so many lower-calorie products are listed with a zero-calorie serving size in the US. I’m not sure about the specifics of regulations — if any exist — on selecting serving sizes; this particular example feels a little fishy to me.

It’s not so rare now; but on the second day Silksong was out, I got the achievement for defeating Phantom when it was still 0.1%

Tesseract was an alternative frontend instances could host. Despite having configuration options for filtering or the lack thereof, Tesseract would silently both download and enforce a custom filter; this hidden filter could not be overridden by any custom configuration. The hidden filter included regex to block keywords, users, and instances, showing a generic error about anything filtered as being “incompatible with Tesseract”.

It’s purposefully worded that way to be misleading, even to native speakers. Explicitly calling something medicine or a cure means it would have to be tested and regulated. However, labeling something as being for wellness isn’t covered by that, and is just vague enough to have people think positively about it. That’s not saying that there aren’t beneficial things labeled under wellness; roughly speaking though, it’s can be used to sell whatever you want, while making people assume it’s actively good for them.

Say goodbye to her for me.

It’s blatantly a bad stance from them; but it doesn’t even touch on games that use internal client/server models even when playing single-player — which includes Minecraft. If their argument were law, would I be breaking it by just playing Minecraft at all? With the way it’s worded, I would think yes.

That doesn’t even take into account that Minecraft in particular can turn a single-player client/server into a multiplayer with one button press. Would that be illegal? Maybe they’d argue not, because it’s LAN only (which is a flimsy argument as well). But with a little effort, you could open up that LAN server up to whomever you wanted.

Very obvious they didn’t think it through, they just want you to own nothing.

Looks like a slower-paced YOMI

Love seeing mbmbam references in the wild

I think it’s funny that I didn’t even find the Last Judge until the end of act 2, so it was a pretty easy boss in my playthrough

Back in maybe 2012-ish my friend built a new pc with some excessive amount of ram for the time. He had a small enough amount of stuff installed on it that he was able to just load the entire fs into ram, and just load anything off of it effectively instantly.

Like a lot of people mentioned, there’s a few good things you could start with, but C is probably not one of them. At my old job I ran a course for software engineer 2s to go over C, and even they had some struggles with it. If professional engineers struggle with C, it’s maybe not the best starting point. Even C++ might be better, but still adds a lot of complexity that isn’t necessary to know as immediately as the beginning.

Whenever people ask me where to start, I say python. It gives you a relatively tame taste of environment setup, and can run code very easily and flexibly. Its type system is flexible enough to make a user aware of it, without it being as rigid as C or as vague as javascript. Because there’s enough libraries that are easy to pull in, even a beginner can start building useful programs without having to know how to build something equivalent to those libraries themselves.

Obviously if you want them to make websites, javascript will be necessary eventually, and isn’t a bad place to start. If you’re going purely for CS knowledge, I do think python is a little better; going from python to JS is probably easier than JS to python.

My wife and I play a lot of games; my wife is also not super technical — she can get her way around some problems, but not deeper ones, and never uses the terminal, — and we’ve enjoyed bazzite quite a bit with almost no issues.

I also do development, and that’s been fine as well.

“If you really want to vote for someone, but don’t think they’ll win, put them at the top choice with your next choice as a backup; repeat for as many choices as allowed or desired. The backup choices will only be used if your higher choices don’t win. If you don’t want to engage with ranked choice, put who you want as top choice, and stop there.”

With reflowing zoom, all elements get bigger, but lose their relative sizing; eg. sidebars will remain on the screen, taking up relatively more space than they usually would. With pinch zoom, all elements get bigger, and retain their relative sizing to each other.

Basically, reflowing zoom tries to fit everything into a smaller space, while pinch zoom expands everything equally.

I was on Windows 7 until April of 2021, when I was taking a certification exam remotely, and didn’t find out that the software they used for it didn’t work on 7 until after I had paid the registration fee. Windows 10 was useable enough, but I never thought it was preferable over 7. Anyway, I’m on Bazzite now.
