Yeah isn’t this like the thing that California required them to do?

Netherlands :)

For me it’s not the time spent at the checkout that matters, it’s the time spent waiting at the checkout. Also over here cashiers don’t bag your items for you, so you have to do that anyway

Also also, they have these really handy hand scanners over here so I can already bag my items while I’m walking through the store, and then the only thing I have to do at self-checkout is hand in the scanner and pay for the groceries. That is genuinely a lot faster than normal cash register shenanigans.

I got taught that rule in my freshman year, but then my thesis advisor told me to stop doing that because “only old people write like that”

So I suppose academia is evolving (however you still aren’t allowed to use first person speech)

Ayooo

I would put Russel’s reaction in “sehr Mäßig” and Toto’s reaction under “was hab’ mich überkommen 😭”

Spheres of Chaos is an old asteroids based game that really ups the ante on trippyness and cool sounds

I should warn you though that it is very flashy, so epilepsy warning is in order

Honestly all of the mysims games I played were the shit when I was a child. Don’t know what I would thing about them today though but

Yeah if you play ssf you sidestep these problems entirely and then the only problem you might have is simply just inventory management (which also only comes up in the lategame)

You can easily get through PoE1’s main campaign without paying a dime

Someone also posted a video of them essentially getting through the “midgame” of path of exile in 24 hours without paying as well https://youtu.be/JeIDCxQhZM4

However, during that midgame he shows that he really starts having trouble with the lack of stash tabs for trading. It’s doable, but that’s kind of where you start hitting your limits

All in all, if you play for the main campaign it’s essentially just a free game, and if you play without trading the game is still designed to be somewhat doable. Really the only thing you miss out on is trading

As a nix user, guix looks legit nice but it took me until 2 days ago to actually find community projects made for guix(https://whereis.みんな/) . Sometimes I just wish they used the same store and daemon as nix so that nix packages can work as guix dependencies and vice versa.

(Also major thing stopping me from using guix is I don’t get service types at all, let alone how you’d define your own service :( )

Very cool!

idk if all my calendars around me have been implementing it wrong, but if not, UTC is also affected by daylight savings, making it the same time zone as GMT

That’s only if you’re working with the perspective of it being a polynomial. When you’re considering the polynomial as a vector however, that operation simply doesn’t exist

What are you on about? The open letter was specifically advocating against sponsorships and advertisements of the Military Industrial Complex. I.E. private companies who specifically try to turn a profit from countries going to war. Companies that literally earn money over people’s dead bodies. I think the people that wrote the open letter were very aware that being sponsored by the military was something that is hard to avoid. However there is a clear difference between being sponsored by a military and being sponsored by, like, literal death merchants

Hate to be that guy, but all those articles are 5 years or older. Have people had more recent complaints about systemd or did that movement that complains about it kinda move on?

Thunderbird has matrix support now? 🤯

Count this comment as irrelevant if you will, but I think one of the biggest missed opportunities of EGS is mod support. They have this world-class game engine, and they do so little with it. Maybe it is because of Unreal Tournament 4 failing to take off. Maybe they think just hamfisting a bunch of this modding stuff into Fortnite is all they need, but still I feel like the EGS version of the steam workshop is an open goal. Hell, with the money they’re saving from pawning off Bandcamp you can even buy off mod.io to get support for virtually no work at all. Like why hasn’t this happened yet?
