There’s the camp of those who say that inheritance is synonymous with OOP. I’m not in that camp, but I’d like to see you duke it out with them.

Free games on Gog are hardly one click, since you have to go into the notification settings in your account to turn the marketing emails back off after they were turned on because you claimed a free game.

My 2DS is my retro handheld.

I can see why you’d look at it that way, but it just says it can extract confessions, not that those confessions are truthful.

Ooo, old school AI 😍

In our current cultural consciousness, I’m not sure that even qualifies as AI anymore. It’s all about neutral networks and machine learning nowadays.

Pizza Tower is genuinely amazing.

Cassette Beasts also surprised me in how good it was.

I remember being like that as a teen. Unfortunately, Linux has had an air of elitism around it for a long time, possibly since its inception.

4chan was never based.

Being able to black list, downplay or uplift specific sources is awesome

I’ve never heard of Kagi, but yeah, those features sound like a godsend. I’d love it if you could have that on a search engine that isn’t pay to use.

As much as I’ve come to loathe Google, I think even that is a bit unfair to them. Search engine optimization is a result of the existence of search engines, because being at the top of the results is always worth good money.

Back before Google was the top dog, there were numerous search engines, and I’m pretty sure people shared tips on how to get further up on the results even then, they just didn’t use the term SEO yet.

Google became the dominant search engine because it gave better results than anyone else, because it wasn’t so easy to manipulate your ranking on the results. But there were always sites that wanted to be on top even when they shouldn’t be. Google stayed ahead of their game for some decades, but now it looks like they can’t or won’t keep it up anymore.

You guys have to be memeing. I can sort of see the 4, although it’s pretty subtle. But there’s no way that’s a 7. It clearly curves at the top, like a 2.

Edit: Ok, nevermind. I just loaded up the image in an image editor and shifted the hue a bit. I can see the 74 then. I knew from previous color vision tests that I had somewhat less than average color vision, but I didn’t think it would be this striking.

I honestly wonder if this is going to end up forcing the X graphics system to rename itself based on trademark law.

Hm yeah, competing with such loss leader printers would be difficult. But how come I’ve never heard of anyone making things such as bootleg printer ink? Or does the police barge into the doors of anyone who tries?

I feel the need to remind people that the concept of the ecological footprint was invented by BP to direct the focus of climate fears away from large corporations and onto individuals.

Is it really that dumb though? Small instances might provide a better experience until they close down.

Lucky you. Half my wishlist is games that aren’t even out yet.

I suppose you’re right, though that’s quite involved when all I want is to host an image.

Is pixelfed really a good way to prevent dead links? I don’t know much about it other than that it’s part of the fediverse, so I’d assume any pictures hosted there last only as long as the instance they’re posted to.

It’s a chicken and egg problem, unfortunately. Cities won’t improve conditions for cyclists if they only see car traffic and people will avoid cycling under bad conditions.

A somewhat obscure one but the Star Renegades OST always struck me as something different and I still occasionally listen to it years later. Every piece of battle music essentially sounds like a boss theme.
