Rust dev, I enjoy reading and playing games, I also usually like to spend time with friends.

sukhmel,

Could you elaborate on “harmful to the community” part? It was mentioned in another thread that they could brick the device, but I couldn’t find any details, for now at least

sukhmel,

Plot twist: Genie is just impersonating a djinn, but in fact he’s an eldritch god 🌚

sukhmel,

That was good, what an angst for a djinn though

sukhmel,

Was one of the first anime series I was watching on purpose, not because it was broadcast. Too bad I never finished, and afaik it doesn’t cover all the manga (which I didn’t finish either 😭)

sukhmel,

That statement may be false, a simple explanation is that if you make a number out of π by removing all 9s it will keep the properties of π being infinite and non-repeating but never contain 9.

sukhmel,

I haven’t looked at it yet but if u understand correctly you just have to search for a page where surrounding gibberish is also words. Probability plummets to zero fast, I’d guess

sukhmel,

The point is that just because π is infinite it isn’t guaranteed to have any combination of numbers in it

sukhmel,

I’d disagree with the last statement as negative results may still be useful. But I didn’t watch the video, maybe it really was not worth being made

sukhmel,

I found an article from 2019-08-29 with this same video claiming that the thing is unknown to science, tried to chew off a tourist’s foot, and that the incident is hushed by government.

As far as I am concerned everything screams that this is horsecrabshit and the video is fake. There is a small chance that the video is not fake but the article is.

sukhmel,

Looks like a horseshit fake

sukhmel,

I tried searching but to no avail, is it a quote?

Tips on making your data less sellable?

A charity I’m volunteering for and a contractor I know insist I have a facebook account for contact reasons. Naturally I bought a separate device to use for that, but I was wondering if there were ways to make my data undesirable to potential buyers. So far I got the obvious tiennamen square posting and that gay putin pic, but...

sukhmel,

Is Messages referring to SMS/MMS?

sukhmel,

There are more even, which surprised me when I first found out. Even Rastafari is listed as Abrahamic there.

sukhmel,

And that’s exactly why I have installed a bunch of spy-cams everywhere around my house /s

sukhmel,

In short, when Mariupol got occupied the hospital destroyed the documents and uniforms of injured soldiers to make them pass as civilians injured during the onslaught. The person in question outed the soldiers and the doctor who assisted in concealing them to the Russians during the walkthrough of the medical facility.

sukhmel,

Dunno, reads quite like an intentional action. Maybe, this could be attributed to her not knowing that the documents were destroyed and being afraid to be prosecuted by the Russians when they find out, but that’s a bit of a stretch and not a very good reason still

sukhmel,

I would argue that zero loyalty may be as bad as full loyalty. Also that things are maybe more complicated than subscribing fully to own or other’s values.

sukhmel,

My perspective is that when everyone is only loyal to their own interests this becomes an extremely divided and trustless environment. Whether it’s social or workplace this is quite toxic to my views

Starfield design lead says players are "disconnected" from how games are actually made: "Don't fool yourself into thinking you know why it is the way it is" (www.gamesradar.com)

apparently this is in response to a few threads on Reddit flaming Starfield—in general, it’s been rather interesting to see Bethesda take what i can only describe as a “try to debate Starfield to popularity” approach with the game’s skeptics in the past month or two. not entirely sure it’s a winning strategy,...

sukhmel,

What game did Blizzard try this with? I’m just too ignorant about their games beyond Warcraft and Diablo, or was it that WoW add-on that killed WoW popularity back in the days?

sukhmel,

No-o-o, you must offer a solution to be eligible for criticism111

!Man, this is such a lame argument 😅 can’t believe people use it!<

sukhmel,

So, they were right about knowing better, after all 😉

I actually think that this is a marketing fallacy some (?) big corporations use to create a self fulfilling prophecy of what people want. Wery rarely is it really a novel thing that just requires users to understand how good it is, very often it’s just gaslighting

sukhmel,

They are generative in the sense of generating output, nothing more. With the “intelligence” part of the AI we got a fluke, should’ve called it something else until it gets to the real intelligence level (that is now dubbed AGI)

sukhmel, (edited )

Oh, if you wouldn’t make this comment, I wouldn’t even notice that it was you who started this thread. Honestly, I think following around and downvoting is uncultured behaviour, but I find whining about something that doesn’t even affect your user experience in ways other than hurting ego… unpleasant, at the very least

Besides, weren’t you bragging about how glad you are to reach -50 and then -100? What’s the big deal then?

sukhmel,

I’d guess, that hedgehogs come in a variety of different species and characters. We had a local hedgehog that woke up in the middle of winter and jumped people, mind you, it did that from an elevation so a couple of faces were hit. Besides that, in the regions with rabies they are carriers and should not be apprehended in the wild

sukhmel,

Ah, nature is amazing

sukhmel,

It still hasn’t stopped to this very moment

sukhmel,

You will now never be able to sleep or do anything, knowing that the moment you let your attention slip they will die only to be revived to die again

sukhmel,

On the internet nobody knows…

sukhmel,

Well, this is a history, somewhat

sukhmel,

No, in the past, yes.

Next!

sukhmel,

I understood it wrong, too 😅

sukhmel,

It’s when you’re out of latin letters because gen-Z

sukhmel,

You’re absolutely right, I remembered that it started before Z, but couldn’t remember how far back it went

Edit: but I can totally see a conspiracy theory about humanity being less than 30 generations old arise from this naming

sukhmel,

An acquaintance of mine bought an ice cream in china thinking it to be grapes or something, but it was bean ice cream, they were pretty shocked. But anyway sweet bean paste in pastry is really good, and seems to be popular in all of the Asia

sukhmel,

Inner walls in Europe may still be drywall, wouldn’t recommend checking it out hand-first though

sukhmel,

I’m glad you said “nearly”, because indeed I worked only in one startup and it wasn’t toxic, maybe because we we just marginally successful and there were like 10–15 people at most, half of them being the same ones during the whole lifetime of about three years our startup existed. Also we were as far away from the Silicon Valley as it can get, so that may also be a factor

sukhmel,

Well, I’d say it is something to expect: someone without experience is trying to understand, most likely in good faith. If anything, thank you for sharing your experience, I’d say it wasn’t necessary to rant this much but at least you did give an educational reply, thank you for that

sukhmel,

Could be individual, I know of cats that are super noisy at night. Otoh know cats that are active but pretty stealthy at that (like they are supposed to be being stealth predators, idk)

sukhmel,

I’m mostly with you but “didn’t want to release prematurely” is not a promise, as you can never know when one sees code as matured.

sukhmel,

I’ve nothing to say more on topic. Off topic, people may be quite different and even if objectively there should be nothing bad in releasing pre-production, they may find it sensitive + there might be someone to actively offend for that. I only encountered the former, luckily

sukhmel,

Man, what an extremist you are

sukhmel,

People often can’t make companies to do stuff even if they pay for it, so that is a really meh argument 😔

sukhmel,

And because they must look good to the majority that may be not versed enough to understand what is better long-term

sukhmel,

Well, I have 9 years old laptop and when I play something demanding like Valheim, or Risk of Rain 2 with my friends, I have to run Discord on my phone because otherwise I get either performance lags, or network lags, or both. May also be an issue with a shitty network bandwidth, but the phone and laptop are both connected to the same network.

sukhmel,

Besides the already stated fact that global warming will only make winters worse, there are better ways like cleaning the snow (ok, that’s radical) or using abrasives like sand or gravel.
