This is peak incompetence, I think, but it maybe shows that they see their mission not in preserving credible sources, but in breaking paywalls or something else entirely that is not forfeited by petty revenge edits

This is still my number one fear to hear about any archive, because altering the data when done properly may go undetected and lead people to wrong conclusions

This is why I usually enjoy the book more if I know some context about a writer, even if my conclusions about how it influenced a book are entirely wrong. I think it's better to know context for visual art, too, but indeed context is not a part of the artwork itself (although I believe not everyone thinks this way, and I don't know if I agree with them or not in the end)

I think maybe it's because almost any vapourwave scam has some legitimate use (NFT is definitely an exception, so maybe I'm totally wrong with other cases, too)

It was even licensed and translated for broadcast in other countries, but I concur that Lexx is a bit obscure one

[–] sukhmel@programming.dev 4 points 2 months ago

Yeah, and that's possible even if they take it for a joke that it is (or isn't)

[–] sukhmel@programming.dev 4 points 2 months ago

Yeah, the thing also has limited scope and requires some meddling to point to necessary includes as evidenced by the first issue, afair. And the code produced is subpar I heard

[–] sukhmel@programming.dev 4 points 2 months ago

I would've never understood that it's a label on the water if it weren't for your explanation. I second that it's conveyed rather suboptimally

They will be bailed in order to ‘compete with China in AI arms race’, imo

The Witcher 2, native Linux version

That is a bit more problematic than it should, the launcher doesn't work without discontinued dependencies, the configuration doesn't work at all (had to edit configuration file manually), and the controls seem a bit off so I decided to play on easy difficulty not to embarrass myself too much with doing completely wrong moves because they are mapped in a weird way (imo)

But it still looks pretty good and seems interesting so far, it will definitely take a lot of time to explore, and then I will still have a third game to play

This shouldn't be a problem anatomically, it's hard to eat anything with a foot in your mouth anyway

Yeah, afaik, there's need for accounting for magnetic North difference from North when navigating even on foot, so it's stated on the map with small enough scale
