I wonder if people complained about the German defaultism in 1911 or 1936.

You’re running closed source software that has permissions to read your keyboard input to other applications (other than apps running as admin), they can access your files, and and they can communicate over the Internet.
You’re inherently trusting these publishers if you’re gaming on Windows. Who is the publisher of Darkest Dungeon or Deep Rock Galactic or Lethal Company?

If you really want to be secure, you can’t do gaming on the same machine as your security sensitive stuff. It’s not limited to these anti-cheats.
- Comment on Begun the kernel wars have 5 days ago:
Tell me how any other app uploading your entire documents directory is okay then. “Into the kernel” is largely fear mongering. Other, less trustworthy apps can do plenty of damage, and you don’t seem to care about those.

These games won’t run on Linux.
They do this to prevent cheaters, and it is effective. Some people who have no problems running any other executable that can do just as much damage believe this load on boot style is too invasive.
I wouldn’t mind this feature dying so I could play on Linux though.
- Comment on Why doesn't the US build a bridge here to connect Alaska to the mainland? Are they stupid? 1 week ago:
To be fair, ambushing anyone on the street, out of context, is extremely likely to get a dumber answer than normal.
This would make a good study, actually. Ambush people on the street and quiz them. For the control group, quiz them immediately, on the street. For the experimental group, take them to a more relaxed location, allow them to sit, give them a minute or two to get collected, quiz them and measure the difference from the control group. You can do it with easy, medium, hard questions.

And even if you do work remotely, you can’t count on that lasting forever.
One of the primary reasons I actively chose the suburbs was so that I’d be able to get another job if I lost my fully remote job. After ten years, exactly that happened, and I got a job with a commute to downtown.

I had to VPN back home to get around the email verification.
- Comment on Developer survey shows trust in AI coding tools is falling as usage rises 2 weeks ago:
You know, you can just look at it. It’s pretty simple, easy to look at, pretty repetitive code where it’s generally pretty easy to spot if something’s wrong.
Vibe coding is more hitting “accept all” and not looking at it at all (or not knowing how to look at it).

Sometimes lorum ipsum is useful.
- Comment on Developer survey shows trust in AI coding tools is falling as usage rises 2 weeks ago:
It’s useful for things I’d otherwise Google. It makes a great ORM, when you know exactly what you want to do with a lot of mundane code. And it’s so much better than adding a framework for an ORM.

Is your life likely to change significantly in the next five years? Most people go through fairly big changes in their 20s. How will your future significant other feel about it? Do you care, or is it a deal breaker?

You have a point. That’s obnoxious. I just wanted straight lines. I’ll see if I can find another.

With straight diagonal lines.
- Comment on Bernie Sanders says that if AI makes us so productive, we should get a 4-day work week 1 month ago:
The other day it spit out a five line piece of code, except, critically, it had used “archived” where it should have used “received”. Small word difference, huge functionality difference.
It absolutely does help, but we’re gonna have a couple whole new classes of copy/paste errors.

Either way, the money grab is why I didn’t get back into MtG recently.
I considered sticking my toe in and was told “oh yeah, just buy a $90 commander precon and hop right in.”
Yeah, no thanks.
- Comment on Basically 2 months ago:
Maybe, maybe not. Politicians have always had a finger in the wind on some issues. I think if you gave a decent historical account including things like current crime rates by race and the bombing of Tulsa, and just mention “generational wealth” like they’re already familiar with it, and then gave them 24 hours to sit on it, I think they’d all be good with it.
Consider if someone took you, shoved you 200 years into the future and said, “Eating animals was some fucked up shit. Do you know what happened in Factory Farms? Really? Of course we’re all vegetarian.”.

Yes, but that’s semantics. Clearly the observation has some effect, but it’s not from any force we recognize.

My friend thinks the jobs don’t exist, and they’re just posted so the company looks good.
They definitely did that at college job fairs. They wanted to keep their spot, but weren’t hiring that year.

You could just as easily learn the opposite.
