JD Vance (or at least his staff) called the mayor of Springfield before they said anything about it. The mayor told them there was zero proof that it was happening at all, then Vance went ahead and said it was happening anyway.

I would argue that the couch surfing/fucking was verified more than the immigrants eating pets story because no one officially said that it was false before it was spread.

Man, I’m so glad I shelled out $300 for a 16tb HDD and taught my wife how to download movies and shows from a nice web interface (overseer) that I’m self hosting. By the end of the year it will have already paid for itself. No more ads, subscription fees, not being able to watch something because another service owns it, movies and shows moving to other services, shitty UI changes, password sharing crackdowns, or any of the other shitty things about streaming.

Remember kids, if buying it isn’t owning it, it’s not theft to get it without paying. (Moral advice only, not legal advice)

I wouldn’t call the scope of the game very large, the name itself sums it up. There’s a lot you can do, but it basically boils down to:

You mine, and you craft.
You mine to craft, and you craft to mine.
Food? Mine and craft to get stuff to farm.
Monsters? Mine and craft stuff to make weapons and armor.
Better weapons, armor, tools, etc? You betcha, keep mining and crafting.

If you try to go over every single thing they can do in the game, they will probably get overloaded. There is a lot of content, but part of the fun is discovering that stuff for the first time too.

It’s sweet that you think facts or reality matter to her, that went out the window a long time ago. We also stopped talking to her a couple months ago, for a lot of reasons

My MIL went off the vegan deep end about a year ago. She 100% believes that anything can be cured by going vegan, and non plant-based foods are what causes every issue. Not even exaggerating, she believes that within 8 weeks of going vegan, you’ll be cured of: alzheimers, dementia, diabetes, cancer, hormone issues, autoimmune diseases, permanent disabilities, autism, and basically anything else wrong with you genetic or otherwise.

My pepper grinder was $35, got it from a woodworker at a local farmers market, definitely worth it.

Kosher salt ftw, I have a little dish with a lid, looks great on the counter but is also super functional

Keeps my teeth clean, I’m all for it

You can do what I do and just have a branch for the GitHub pages bit, and just point GitHub pages at that branch instead of main to have a consistent webpage that you can rebase/merge into as you test things to make sure they’re safe

If you want a more realistic (mechanics mainly, better graphics too but still blocky) and survival focused game, vintage story is great. It’s meant to be very realistic (mechanics, not graphics) so it’s a very different play style than Minecraft.

Need storage? Make a reed basket with 8 slots and doesn’t help food preservation, or make a ceramic storage vessel with 12 slots that decreases rate of food spoilage. Manually build clay storage vessels voxel by voxel, put it in a pit kiln, cover in dry grass, sticks, and firewood and let it cook for an in-game day then you’re good to go.

Food? Better hunt, fish, and grow crops. Make soups, stews, jerky, etc - better make sure you have a cellar with sealed jars of food for the winter though. Also need to balance soil nutrients for crops to grow well.

Leather stuff? Have you to kill animals, skin them, get pelts, soak in limewater/borax and water solution in a barrel, scrape them with a knife, soak in weak tannin then strong tannin (made by soaking oak or acacia logs in barrels of water), then you finally have useable hides.

Charcoal? Have to get a bunch of logs, cut them into firewood (crafting recipe so this part is quick), make a 2x2x2 to 11x11x11 hole and fill fully with firewood, light a fire on top, cover, and wait a day. If it’s not fully covered you’re just left with a bunch of ash instead of charcoal.

Metal tools? Have to get the ore/nuggets, melt over a charcoal or hotter fire, pour into ingot mold, hammer and clip it into the desired shape, cool in water. Want to carry something hot by hand? Better have some tongs or you’ll take damage.

Trying to cook inside? Smoke can build up if you don’t have a chimney - and your fire can go out if it’s raining and the chimney is straight down.

Everything takes a lot more work than Minecraft because it’s meant to be more realistic - but there are so many mechanics that it’s a ton of fun to learn and complete stuff. My current playthrough I’m still sifting sand to get enough copper nuggets/items to make a pickaxe to mine some copper ore to make more tools, but I have a nice little stash of vegetable and meat meals stored in crocks in my hole-in-the-ground cellar/bedroom. Still need to get around to making an actual shelter and cellar, but I want a pickaxe first so I can make a nice sized cellar to preserve food through the winter.

A little something called mass commercial surveillance. They likely bought that info 100% legally too

Lord Doom - The doom emacs cat, otherwise known as fluffy wuffles

I’ve been on Linux full time for over 3 years - the only time I deal with dependencies is during my twice-monthly manual updates and new app installs, and even then I’ve only run into conflicts that required me to do more than hit y/n a couple of times, and they were easy fixes. My updates every 2 weeks take on average less than 5 mins total, most of it stuff downloading and installing while I continue to do other stuff.

If you’re having a shit time with dependencies frequently, you’re probably doing something wrong. Switch to nixos if it’s that much of a problem, no more dependency issues.

I have a 3080 ti, you can run sway with sway --unsupported-gpu on Nvidia cards, but it has a lot of problems and things frequently don’t work, I don’t even recommend trying it. I’ve tried most solutions that I could find with no success. You’re better off just sticking with i3 until Nvidia or Wayland gives in (don’t hold your breath though, it’s not going to be any time soon)

That’s already a thing, it’s called League of Legends

Seconding magit, emacs is an awesome ecosystem well worth learning, and magit is fantastic. I recommend doom emacs - the greatness of vim keybinds for editing with the greatness of the emacs ecosystem

Fun fact, Tupperware used to rely heavily on MLM schemes for free advertising. Remember your parents going to Tupperware parties when you were a kid? Check out the Tupperware Parties heading on wikipedia (not sure how to link to the heading itself) - https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tupperware

The speed limits were brought in after Transport for London (Tfl) engineers found there wasn’t enough of a safety margin between the speed of the trains and the maximum recommended speed.

Literally the second paragraph

The games themselves are still good overall - but they’re forcing that you need a psn account in order to play them. It started with helldiver’s 2, it was wildly popular - then a few months after launch they started forcing that you had to have a connected psn account in order to play even though they said it was optional when it launched.
