One piece has just so many of these…

Here’s mine:

Ah yes, the voice that sounds like a lot of healthy choices were made to date.

Took me a few tries and apparently it’s case sensitive

And thank you for the short version.

Thank you for the full rundown with the terms, appreciate it

Can somebody dumb this down from a triple negative legalese to average Joe, please?

Bit of an odd question, but did you try booting it from a USB on that machine and see if it worked alright for a few days with what you wanted it to do? Typically if it works fine from the bootable usb, it shouldn’t really have any issues installing unless your drive is copy protected or something, especially if it’s Mint like you mentioned below, also I’d recommend poking their forums if you haven’t yet, somebody might be able to shed more light on what’s wrong with specific errors and behaviours

I agree that it’s rather unique blend of a walking simulator and does explore death and loss through an extremely lengthy story that has some touching moments, however the slog of the “meat” of the game is absolutely not worth it to get to the core of it all.

If you’re interested, I recommend watching the “game movie” on YouTube, where they just show the dialogues and skip almost all of the walking, granted even then you’d probably want to skip/fast forward through a massive chunk of it all where it’s the same animations over and over again. (Such as the load/unload/qpid sequence, etc)

That’s about 1.8k each. Pocket change.

Discord co-founder and CTO Stanislav Vishnevskiy wants you to know he thinks a lot about enshittification.

You don’t say.

With reports of an upcoming IPO and the news of his co-founder to hand leadership of the company over to a former Activision Blizzard executive, many Discord users are rightfully worried the platform is about to become, well, shit.

I’m sorry, about to…? As if the developments of the last 2 years weren’t a downward spiral with the game integrations, ads and garbage UI redesigns one after the next? Alright then.

Again with the “losing money” narrative. It doesn’t lose money, it costs money.

Now. Does it cost so much more than ever before? I don’t know. And if it does, why is that? Good questions.

But if it doesn’t cost proportionally so much more but we all stopped buying stamps or using the paid services it provides to subsidize its operational costs then that would explain the deficit. Otherwise we’d need to ask more pointed questions, I’m with you on that

But you can’t slap “basic reforms” on something when you don’t see or understand the larger underlying picture past the sensationalist headline and that’s unfortunately the point where most people stop asking questions

Canada post is a service. Its job is to provide a service to every person in the country, not to generate profit for shareholders. When it’s doing well, it can self sustain, which is cool, otherwise it costs money through tax dollars as would any services we pay for.

It’s also supposed to be consumed within 15-30 minutes of being prepared if memory serves.

That is a proper workaround when you don’t have a choice, disposable temp sim will get you through their “security”. Unfortunately doesn’t work with virtual sim numbers though.

The first time the credits roll is very much just the end of the tutorial

Does a pihole fall into the “not subtle improvements” category?

Thanks for actually providing a rundown instead of just downvoting.

While I understand that some people can be upset about this, I don’t typically keep up with this sort of stuff and seeing it mutate from one article to another while discussing more or less the same things (mostly protections, rights and such) does put it in the same mutable box of flavours for me.

The fact that the community as a whole can’t even come to a consensus of which one to consistently use signals (to me) instability and infighting rather than a unified power in diversity.

I’ll check the article and read on about what this one specifically signifies but the people who don’t bother saying anything because their whole life revolves around this, and know the ins and outs of it all, really need a wake up call from the ones who at least bother asking or are open to discussion about it rather than just shunning/downvoting them and moving on.

Not sure why people downvoting you. I don’t know what this years flavour is either. Last I remember there was AI or IA or something in there too. And now that’s gone.

Double episode, decent recap, and moving right along into next segment, does feel like they’re going to do a couple of flashbacks to explain some more things as stuff unfolds

Ah yes. The “we shafted you on the console price and now pay us to shaft you even harder with a technical encyclopedia demo”. Delightful
