GiantRobotTRex,

That’s not why they’re going after Sony though.

She says the company abused its dominant position by requiring digital games and add-ons to be bought and sold only via the PlayStation Store, which charges a 30% commission to developers and publishers.

Maybe Nintendo has a similar practice with their Nintendo shop that they could be sued over, but regardless they’re still allowed to price their own games however they want.

GiantRobotTRex,

Isn’t Kel the one that loves orange soda?

GiantRobotTRex,

No, The Pirate Bay didn’t exist until 2003

GiantRobotTRex,

Then what kind should I use instead?

GiantRobotTRex,

His name isn’t Adam. He just makes a comparison between himself and Adam from the Bible. The quote is:

Remember that I am thy creature; I ought to be thy Adam, but I am rather the fallen angel, whom thou drivest from joy for no misdeed.

PSA: For those who want signal on secondary phone, use molly.

Recently discovered this. Molly supports link with existing device just like on signal desktop. It even has benefit of getting entire chat history unlike signal desktop. Just restore the signal backup file during setup and then click link with existing device. Then scan with you primary phone. Beauty of open source. Molly:...

GiantRobotTRex,

I’ve used signal to buy molly

GiantRobotTRex,

He played the Joker against Adam West’s Batman.

GiantRobotTRex,

I agree that it’s the most obvious choice, but it also doesn’t work when there are hidden buffers open. :qa! and :cq should always work so they are arguably more correct

It’s useful when vim is being run from a different program or script.

For example, if I run p4 change to create a new Perforce changelist it will open up my editor (which I have set to vim) so that I can enter the CL description and other fields. If I realize I don’t actually actually want to create the CL yet I can use :cq to quit with an error so that p4 knows to abort.

I also have a script I use for diffing a list of file pairs. It runs vimdiff on the first pair of files then if I exit with :qa it will move on to the next pair of files. But if I exit with :cq it will just abort and skip all of the remaining file pairs.

GiantRobotTRex,

They managed to get quite a lot of bias squeezed into that title. Apparently it doesn’t actually matter that much which state is doing this, as long as you know that you’re supposed to be mad at the Democrats.

GiantRobotTRex,

If he’s not thinking clearly, why he would he choose your proposed suicide method? It’s a more rational choice but like you’ve said this isn’t a decision being made rationally.

CIA publicly acknowledges 1953 coup it backed in Iran was undemocratic as it revisits 'Argo' rescue (apnews.com)

While revealing new details about one of the most famed CIA operations of all times — the spiriting out of six American diplomats who escaped the 1979 U.S. Embassy seizure in Iran — the intelligence agency for the first time has acknowledged something else as well....

GiantRobotTRex,

Are you saying that the Nazis were communists?

GiantRobotTRex,

Why?

The Link’s Awakening remake was fantastic. I would love a similar remake of A Link to the Past.

GiantRobotTRex,

Aside from a few classics I’m sure you’ve already played, I remember playing Wario Blast and Taz-Mania fairly often.

I haven’t played either one in years, so I don’t know how well they still hold up.

GiantRobotTRex,

It’s the one I owned, haha.

I never played any of the other Bomberman games (until Super Bomberman R) so I’m not sure how it compares.

GiantRobotTRex, (edited )

I just looked it up since I didn’t know but the Game Gear version definitely looks different from the Gameboy one I remember.

GiantRobotTRex,

But the DX version supported the Gameboy printer. How can you not love the Gameboy printer?!

In all seriousness though, the color dungeon and the tunics were fun additions.

GiantRobotTRex,

Ender’s Shadow would actually be an excellent way for them to soft reboot the series.

GiantRobotTRex,

Unfortunately that would disproportionately impact small local businesses far more than large corporations.

GiantRobotTRex,

Yeah, I use an old ID card to break up my coke instead

GiantRobotTRex,

I am reading Leviathan Falls now. The entire series is great. I haven’t wanted to put any of them down.

GiantRobotTRex,

It makes more sense when you realize it’s based on code.golf submissions. No one is going to create a class like that for a code golf problem. They’re probably not going to create any classes (other than one just to hold the main function).

I’m pretty sure I can do the Fibonnaci one with less code than your simple class. Because these problems are simple enough they don’t benefit from any OOP stuff so you avoid most of the syntactic overhead.

I am surprised it’s not higher in the list since the overhead of setting up a main method is still quite significant compared to most languages. But other than that, these problems can be solved without running into any egregious examples of overhead.

GiantRobotTRex,

I hadn’t heard the term either but wikipedia says you’re correct: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Garbage_disposal_unit

GiantRobotTRex,

I watched this TED talk about 15 years ago and I’ve been trying my shoes that way ever since. It really is much better.

GiantRobotTRex,

If you die from cancer you can’t die from a car wreck.
