Strange Adventures in Infinite Space
G’bye! So long! Bon voyage! Don’t forget to not write!
Also, if you agree to this and your wife dies due to allergies in one of your theme parks, they may use the TOS on this trial to rule you agreed to binding arbitration in court.
I saw pigeons at the Washington DC Amtrak station last year. Birds will bird.
They’re back? Oh please oh please oh please…
The Vice President can’t do that without “a majority of either the principal officers of the executive departments or of such other body as Congress may by law provide” on their side. That can’t happen without either the aid of people that Trump would have to select (and he’s notorious for picking toadies) or Congress passing a bill to create a body to evict him.
Doom is overstating things, especially with the fucking electoral college in the US and election shenanigans afoot in Georgia. Don’t lose focus!
Wait a moment…
“Work from home is here to stay, US data shows”
“Old MacDonald had a farm, E-I-E-I-O”
Even 20 minutes seems like too long, but that would still be wonderful.
They also hate the idea of phone trees. Companies don’t care unless we make them not care.
Saying “American people” the way the Beastie Boys would say “Another dimension”
It just seems like it’s a lot of papering over a fairly substantial problem. While the example I gave was Handbrake, which does seem like it should be a unique example, every other piece of software that I check Flatpak versions of also had ludicrously wasteful storage issues.
I’m aware of dependency hell, but it seems to me that most software doesn’t have that as a problem, not if the libraries are sensibly maintained? After all, the fact that upgrading a library can improve all the software that uses it seems like it’s usually a positive thing. And the ballooning storage requirements of Flatpak make it a tool that should be used occasionally, rather as a primary way to release software. Using a filesystem that can detect duplicates would help, but itself also seems like a special-case kind of solution, and not a great solution to turn to just to avoid what seems to me to be a significant issue.
Wizardry inspired a lot of games, but the three games listed have greater influences elsewhere. (FF and DQ in particular are more like Ultima.) Sadly the games that were most inspired by Wizardry, sometimes called “blobbers,” have mostly died out: The classic Bard’s Tale games, Might & Magic, Dungeon Master and Eye of the Beholder. Etrian Odyssey and the Japanese Wizardry games hold the torch but are pretty niche these days.
The demise of the original Wizardry series is one of the greatest injustices in the history of computer gaming, up there with the closing of the original Atari.
DOS Wizardry has a significant bug that makes it one of the worst versions.
Warning: this is secretly a Nethack thread!
So, the model was playing on average 2,000 points worse because the player was luckier? The things about werewolves and dogs is a factor but is statistically insignificant.
Nethack has a couple of other gotchas like this. They should be grateful they weren’t playing on Friday the 13th…
The operator for ensuring something appeared in a search used to be “+”, but they stopped using that for some ???mYsTeRiOuS rEaSoN???
But it appears like we’re in a situation where it’s not used for specific situations, but for lots of different things. Just a few Flatpak programs starts to chew through a significant amount of disk space, and some programs are only being distributed as Flatpaks.
Google constantly puts Youtube ads at the top of searches for information! Countless people put their information on Youtube in the form of videos! Tutorials get put on Youtube as a matter of course! There’s a trove of old media on Youtube that can’t be accessed any other way! Congratulations, you’ve won the award for the most thoughtlessly dismissive person on the internet today.
