This is really good. Enough of the old levels to keep it vaguely familiar so you’re not completely lost, enough to twists to be interesting. Not an overwhelming amount of new engine stuff, but enough to pull off some very clever tricks. A couple of moments that actually made me laugh out loud, and some genuinely creepy sections that play heavily on your understanding of the old levels. Highly recommended.

My first thought is breakage. Some drunk person ending up with a mouth full of glass shards sounds like a bad time.

Yeah I’m having issues last day or two. I feel like it’s been intermittent up until today. Now nothing loads, here or federated.

EDIT: Okay, weird. Image posts don’t load but embeds in comments do. At least, embeds in comments on federated comms.

EDIT 2: Embed uploads aren’t working either.

Stuff like this isn’t usually packed strictly by weight. It’s packed by “volume that probably weighs about the right amount based on average density”. In most places there is a legally allowed +/- % to enable manufacturers to churn out slop as quickly and efficiently as possible. They’re supposed to have a QA department that makes sure it averages out over a large number of packages, but in practice who knows. Regulators are usually too busy / understaffed / underfunded to police that kind of shit proactively anyway, and even if they do get caught, the fine is probably less than the savings they’d get from shorting customers en masse. The manufacturer will absolutely have done the math on that.

So fuckit, more power to him.

I haven’t read up on Discord’s TOS lately, but I absolutely would not trust them to not spy on my shit.

The site asks for contributions ranging from $10, which will earn donors a vote on the location of where the statue will be permanently installed, to $25,000 to receive a limited quarter-life-size bronze replica.

Oh, it’s a grift.

It’s better than iron dome because it’s gold.

Fun thought exercise but functionally irrelevant. It still feels like I’m making decisions, so that’s close enough.

Perfect. No notes.

Bazzite only really does gaming mode on AMD GPUs (RX4xx+). As a general rule of thumb AMD cards are usually better supported under Linux. Bazzite’s desktop mode should work fine on a 1660 though.

ACAB includes Orion Pax.

Tried this but all I ended up with is random chunks. How do you pull in the remaining matter from the other cans where parts of your tomatoes ended up?

McD’s changes their menu and business practices to suit the local market. In India they don’t do beef at all.

This is covered in another thread on this post if you actually want to know. I suspect you don’t, and just want to post gotcha arguments in bad faith.

Just lurk there for a while. IMO, biggest misconception is that they’re omnicidal lunatics. They have a lot of in-jokes and bits that seem incomprehensible and border on unhinged to an outsider, and sometimes they kinda lean in to the perception. But if you spend enough time there you realise they’re very intelligent and deeply empathetic people. The “unlimited genocide on the first world” rhetoric is an expression of frustration rather than actual intent.

hypothesis two

Jhezes fuck, this is it, isn’t it? They already paid for the subscription so if it doesn’t get used it’s a waste of money and won’t be in the budget next year.

Why the fuck did they use AI for this? Real chess boards aren’t exactly hard to come by.

High five for the invisible hand

My experience as a mature student has been similar, I’ve had a couple of people in group projects try to use AI and get resoundingly mocked for it by the rest of the group. Which was kinda vindicating.

Watching the uni policy on it evolve over the last couple years has been interesting. For a while individual unit heads would just have their own policies so it ranged from “AI = insta-fail” to “you can use AI to help with phrasing in your writing but provide examples of how”.

Now the uni seems to have settled on a cohesive policy of not allowing it for writing, but encouraging its use for summarising articles before reading them to determine relevancy, or rubber ducking your own work.
