Huh, that dog is pretty much identical to my dog with the saturation turned way up. It’s uncanny. Justice for Xiaopang!

I think a lot of the shivering isles aesthetic holds up better. Lots of vibrant colors and weird shapes that made it a lot more interesting looking than Skyrim, which is just as outdated looking but also boring

I switched off Duck Duck Go when the Ukraine war started and they proudly began censoring Russian websites. (Tweet, lib news). If they’re gonna do that what’s the point in using them over Google or Bing? Plus they were advertising on the local radio in my tiny shithole town, which seemed like a red flag for a “less corporate” search engine.

Yandex has been good, mostly glad that it seems better at including the more niche keywords I search instead of ignoring them like Google does

Zuckerberg and Musk both feature themselves heavily in their company’s marketing, unlike Google’s founders. It’s hard to see any news about the companies without seeing those two.

Also Americans hate Gates and Bezos? I hear people shittalk them far more often than Zuckerberg in real life. Especially Gates, since he’s the center of a lot of conspiracy theories too

Thanks for reminding me to delete my account. It’s been trying to force that log-in thing for a while for me at least. Imagine making a competitor to GitHub that sucks even worse

I remember that developer posting about his game on a development forum on Knockout.chat and getting banned because a zionist threw a fit. Good to see he’s still active!

Pistachio milk is pretty good but stronger flavored. Macadamia nut milk is all around great.

Rust is very complex, in part due to the obsession with zero cost abstraction that leads to caring about lots of edge cases like NonZero types. But at least when I’ve worked with it, a lot of that you can just ignore and write straight forward code, and it’ll still likely be very performant. Although the Rust sort of philosophy vibes with me better, so not all might find that so forgiving.

I did quit using Rust due to its compile times though. Even using dependencies that would advertise fast building like Bevy quickly started taking more than a minute to build (not from scratch, just making one line changes). And during that minute I’d get bored and do something else, and my productivity plummeted.

every pathfinder 1e character being a Reactionary because some writer making that mistake on one of the most useful traits

SMT negotiations are by far my favorite monster-collecting methods. Just equal parts philosophy, flirtation, and gibberish as they vibe check you.

What? Norm was always an “apolitical centris” at his best, and was usually far more conservative, who would frequently punch down, like when he

That’s the context for his “I think everyone involved in this story should die” quote.

He stayed conservative, defended trump and attacked #MeTwo towards the end of his life. Other than like one 9-11 joke, I don’t see any reason why leftists would want to claim or defend him?

Add duplicates of badly named ones with new standardized names. And filter out the old ones from the emote picker so they don’t get used much again.

Looks like going back to old English, strawberries were still berries. The botanical meaning was only added in the 1700s.

So blackberries, raspberries, tomatoes, pineapples, strawberries, and eggplants are all berries

Looks nice, but it fucks up the ligatures in a lot of functional languages other than pipes |>. Poor <$>, >>=, *>, >>>, and all their friends

That sucks. Where I live this is pretty much the only way since we ran out of injectable estrogen for a long time, and the pharmacies here won’t tell us if they can re-order it so I don’t know if the drought is over.

Edit: this prompted me to call around and see if one would answer. Walgreens is claiming they can, but they did that last shortage too.

Wow, I didn’t realize engineers got this upset about it. Definitely using the term Software Engineer instead of Programmer from now on
