But at least they are building a tool to export the rooms into unity which will be available in a week - that is more than most live service games do

- Comment on My brother has or had now a drinking problem. Now he is asking for the worst tasting crap that he can take a cap full like an airplance bottle so his body whenever he thinks about it will remember 1 week ago:
This is also used as nail polish to make children stop chewing nails.
I actually loved the taste of that stuff - it made it worse.

Most of the laws aim for social media, so the 2 bit solution should be enough for most legislation. I would propose an “Birthday” field for legislations where an exact date is needed (which shouldn’t be, because it’s allowing every tracker to identify the DoB) and the “2 bits” for the rest. In my country the ages are 16 for drinking beer/voting and 18 for “mature"/hard liquors/tobacco.
- Comment on What are your hallmark games? What games have shaped how you view games? 1 week ago:
I grew up with DOS games - Commander Keen, Wolfenstein 3D, Defender of the Crown, Hanse, Strike Commander and Wing Commander, Aces of the Pacific, Flight Simulator 3, Stunts3D, Hot Rod - Those are the games that showed me what unlimited amount of worlds can be inside of a computer. System Shock 1 didn’t hook me (but the remake has), first time playing System Shock 2 and Thief blew my mind.

I am very anti-age-verification laws, because they tend to be pro-identification-laws. But adding a simple field signifying the age of the current user is probably as good as it gets, although i would have preferred a single-bit-solution (of age/not of age) or at max 2 bits (<14, <16, <18, of age). Using this to go after Systemd again is a) not gonna work, because it’s here to stay and b) i am very interested in how others will implement the legal requirements.

That was actually accounted for by the study.
- Comment on German man says american are savages 2 weeks ago:
I would take that with a grain of salt, since the study here says it only deals with death inside of the hospital (which is what is expected of a system encouraging the individual to flee the expensive place as soon as possible):
Considering the markedly lower length of stay in U.S. hospitals, it seems likely that more deaths following AMI occur after hospital discharge in the U.S., compared to Germany. This assumption is supported by recent OECD publications, which also report U.S. 30-day AMI mortality based on linked data. This figure was at 9.3% in the year 2020, compared to 4.9% when based on unlinked data. For Germany, national 30-day AMI mortality figures based on linked data are not available to date. In other industrialized countries reporting both figures, the difference between mortality based on unlinked data and mortality based on linked data was not as pronounced as in the U.S.
- Comment on Americans: How the hell do you meet new people or get into relationships after college? 3 weeks ago:
I agree on this. I just commented on my AvPD, which makes social contacts … complicated (just look in my comment history).
I haven’’t been without a partner since i was 18. Im 46 now, and newly out of a relationship (but we had a good run). I never actually tried to flirt with anyone. The only thing i really did is to listen well, make appropriate compliments and give my input. I don’t even look good, I’ve been a fat fuck since childhood and a nerd on top.
- Comment on Americans: How the hell do you meet new people or get into relationships after college? 3 weeks ago:
I’ve been told the same thing from my aunt, which moved into the countryside with her newlywed husband long ago. She only got to get friends after her firstborn got into school - the 8 years until that time were very isolating, even with work contacts.

Family of Secrets -> Oil depletion allowance -> Quartz -> Piezoelectricity -> Ultrasound -> Lazzaro Spallanzani -> List of Catholic clergy scientists -> Lorenzo Albacete -> Catholic University of America -> Charles Coughlin
Thanks for the rabbit hole! I now know more about a whole deal of subjects, starting with a political theme, gliding over taxing of natural resources, physical phenomena, priest scientists, history of how we found out that bats don’t fly by sight, finding out that there were priest scientists in my lifetime, the information that there is an catholic university in the US and landing on the wiki page of a antisemitic radio priest during the time of WW2 (funnily enough tying back into the radio grade quartz that is a valid resource for the Oil depletion allowance).

- Comment on When using rsync to backup my /home folder to an external 1TB SSD, I run out of space, how?? 1 month ago:
A second possibility is the deduplication feature of BTRFS. If you made copies of files on your SSD, they only take up space there when changing something - thats how i keep 5 differently modded Cyberpunk 2077 installations on my drive while only taking up a fraction of space that would be needed - I wouldn’t be able to copy this drive 1:1 onto a different filesystem.

Same here, only exception: Baldurs Gate 3, because i loved the mindset of the devs and i knew from their prior games that they deliver quality.
- Comment on Do you ever feel guilty for trying to sign up for government assistance programs? 1 month ago:
Government assistance is simply the replacement for what society took from you, the option to sustain yourself by foraging. Society as a whole decided that they WANT people to not starve on the street. Get what you deserve.
- Comment on JD Vance visits Milan, Italy 1 month ago:
I had the same impulse when seeing that convoy. I think there should be enough stuff from the war in ex-yugoslavia floating around, and with the current political climate there shouldn’t be an issue finding 50-100 people to place on rooftops.

- Comment on Australians banned social media. Now they are worried about teenagers going outside with e-bikes 1 month ago:
The issue is more that they sell 500-1000W ebikes that are not specced for road usage, only for riding on private ground - and then hand them to teenagers. As so often, the parents are the issue, not the teens. As so often, everyone will pay the price for it through stricter regulation.
