Wdym “Brits and”? I’ve only ever heard about that being a thing in GB, and I don’t think it’s all that popular there either

Who needs housing, medicare, tourism, foreign relations, chips, rare earths, democracy, independent media, uncensored internet, demilitarized police, social security, general education, affordable higher education, a clean environment, worker’s rights, women’s rights, sexual freedom, separations of powers, separation of church and state and probably a couple dozen other things anyway?

I thought Wikipedia doesn’t accept anything that seems AI generated? In other words, the worse the article the smaller the chance it will make it on the platform

Note that you can share games from GOG, but it is illegal probably everywhere where GOG is available and if law enforcement ever catches on, you’re fucked.
Afaik this is not happening right now, but there’s nothing stopping GOG from poisoning your downloads in a way that ties all copies to your account

Domino’s is ridiculously overpriced in Europe. So much so that I bought pizza there once and then never again.

- Comment on New 7-Zip high-severity vulnerabilities expose systems to remote attackers — users should update to version 25 ASAP 2 weeks ago:
Yeah, sure, and the remote hackers access my system how exactly to run 7-Zip? Do they use the well know ZIP-socket Linux exposes, designed to unzip stuff for random people in case of archival emergencies?

- Comment on A Flagship Smartphone With Kill Switches? Meet the Murena-Powered HIROH Phone 5 weeks ago:
The HIROH Phone (Powered by Murena) is available for pre-sale. You can pay a €/$ 99 deposit to reserve your device and get a voucher to buy it later for €/$ 999, discounted from the retail price of €/$ 1,199.
1,200 moneys is an absurd price for a phone like that IMO. You can get a Fairphone for literally half that. I’m not so sure there is a market for ‘premium privacy phones’ that is not already satisfied by (also significantly cheaper) Pixels with GrapheneOS

I can make the connections for computer science, but how the hell does welding attract da queerness? (And how the hell did my phone autocomplete that sentence?)

Because Python wants you to read it like English: English:

Which, tbf, gives you the amout you pay back in ingame currency, of which you will need at least some if you want to trade stuff / the MMO experience
- Comment on No Man's Sky: Voyagers update releases today, introduces customizable "colossal, fully furnished, completely bespoke Corvette-class starships" 2 months ago:
It’s okay. As the other comments pointed out, it kinda feels like a really cool tech demo. Lots of systems to look at, but everything is disconnected. That’s what makes the game feel shallow. You can completely ignore most stuff without any consequence

I was about to say, I put 2000 hours in League of Legends and I’m not sure whether I enjoyed that either :D

I really don’t know what to think about this game. It definitely has come a long way, but to this day, it feels… Shallow.
It’s a sandbox game where building, crafting and trading are not great, not terrible. It’s also an adventure game, but the story is overall very predictable and combat is again, not great, not terrible. It’s a multiplayer game, except no, not really, since you don’t share quest progesss and almost never meet random people (if you aren’t close to the center of the galaxy).
I’m about 200h into it and still can’t tell you if I like it or if it just keeps me busy. I have high hopes for Light No Fire tho.
- Comment on UltraRAM scaled for volume production — memory that promises DRAM-like speeds, 4,000x the durability of NAND, and data retention for up to a thousand years, is now ready for manufacturing 2 months ago:
RAM = accessible anywhere (very simply put) D = Dynamic = loses data if power is gone
This is NVRAM tech, NV standing for ‘non volatile’. That means it keeps the data if power is lost. You only need to re-write if you read that data. There is probably a hardwired option to do this immediately, perhaps even capacitors to ensure this goes through even if you happen to lose power that very moment.
Consumes extra energy, may add some latency to reads, but there’s more to being fast and non-volatile at the same time. May be wort it, may be not.

Oh, sorry, yes I mean a microwave + convection oven combo. Didn’t know how to translate that properly. My mom got one and it’s basically an air frier, a microwave and a mini-oven in one. Pretty cool stuff
