Gaming industry collapse doesn't sound good, I've been liking indie games a lot.

Yeah, that's definitely true, espresso shots can be pretty ass at room temperature and you need to get through the bitter foam while it's still hot. I feel the beer one specifically is an acquired taste, at first I felt too exposed to the beer taste but now I enjoy it, to me a shit beer tastes both bad cold and room temp.

Special case for beer is around 35C (100F) it becomes kinda weird IMO.

Room temperature coffee and beer tastes just as good.

I forked an opensource project to add a couple features for my wife. 😊

For people who don't know Ken Cheng is satire and making fun of LinkedIn people.

Meanwhile Microsoft makes the start menu with React

You can also just do a sudo !! the !! is a shorthand for whatever you tried to run previously.

The Indian operator just finished his shift

At some point in the future Linux will support more windows applications than windows

FF is doing great. All the have to do now is the Steam strategy. Do nothing and wait for the competition to fuck themselves over.

There are downsides to nuclear these days. Incredibly high cost with a massive delay before they're functioning. Solar + wind + pumped hydro + district heating is where it's at in 2024.

So many people have thought I was gay I went into introspection. Turns out I'm very straight.

"LGTM, merged" 😏

Anon had a massive dunk on his professor lined up.

"You said there would be no judgement and said that people should lie rather than put an accurate score on an ethics survey. Wouldn't that make your score lower than 36 then?"

I was looking up how much RAM it would cost compared to a native WinUI 3 start menu in C++ and the difference is 20-100x for a hello world app. Having to load a JS and React Native runtime makes it load 150MB of RAM.

Roman history is amazing. Everybody hears of Julius Caesar and maybe Trajan and Hadrian but then pretend that nothing happened after that. Like poof, it was dead, inevitable, Franks and Caliphates are now a thing.

Then when you realise how much Rome had to screw itself over to even get to that point while being struck by famines, massive migratory invasions, the huns while still being in a moderately good shape... That's the good stuff. The story of the fall is a marble being chipped away slowly while telling a beautiful story until there is nothing left of the Western Roman Empire. If Rome had a favorite hobby it would be waging war on itself.

Eastern Roman Empire was alive and kicking until the 1450's and if you think there's not much there then look up Justinian's restoration. They even had horseback archers like the mongols and huns for a while that had to train for many years. Hell, even look at a map that goes back some years pre-caliphate period.

Even as recently as 1912 there were people in the Aegean islands that identified as Roman. I wish there would be a series that would cover the history of Rome properly and not just "CaEsAr KiLlEd gAuLs aNd sExEd cLeOpAtRa" for the billionth time.

I think people should need a licence to drive anything that has a tall nose. The chance of fatality is really high for those cars and people need to be taught that.

That's nice and all but these are fungi release CO2 into the atmosphere just like burning it would. It's a bit counter-intuitive but burning it with carbon capture is less CO2 emitting.

Filtering out particles is obvious requirement and easier than filtering CO2. This is all a worse solution than to simply use less plastic. Taxing plastic out of existence is the real solution.

I'm gonna cast doubt on this. It happened too conveniently after people figured out long distance sea travel.

If they would have floated it's much more likely that it happened somewhere in the last million years rather than the last 500.
