That’s how politics work in the US.

Not really, unfortunately. All these “if you don’t vote for A you’re voting for B” arguments would be a little more applicable if the US presidential election was a simple majority vote, but anyone with the most basic of US politics knowledge has heard of the Electoral College. Hillary Clinton wasn’t elected president in 2016, but not because more people voted for Trump.

And that’s without taking into the account voting suppression. Would you tell someone who can’t vote because of racist laws that they are “voting for Trump”?

I like the ideas behind PRQL, although I’ve never used it in an actual project. It compiles down to SQL but has a clearer model based on pipeline and a much better suntax.

Malloy is a similar project but I haven’t look into it yet.

My hot take: Vi, make and C would have gone the way of COBOL a long time ago if it wasn’t for a lot of programmers thinking “my tools are more difficult to use, hence I’m a better programmer”.

Regarding the IP address, how are they going to get it? I assumed that servers wouldn’t pass them along to other nodes, isn’t that the case?

Look up the Everburn Blade in Baldur’s Gate 3.

REMEMBER US! REMEMBER THAT WE ONCE LIVED!

Yes, you can manually assign each wheel slot, but when you have a few dozen spells and actions it’s really long and boring. I’d like it more if it behaved like the hotbar, with things sorted automatically and space for personal favorites.

You can’t multiclass on Explorer, but I think you can change the difficulty while at camp, level up or respec to multiclass, and change it back again.

I love playing from my couch with a controller! I work in front of my computer all day and afterwards I really don’t want to spend more time there.

The only problem I’ve found (besides minor bugs) is that after you go up a few levels the action wheels are a complete unorganized mess. I hope Larian adds some way of auto-arranging them into actions, bonus actions, spells, etc. like the hotbar does.

You can cast a spell tagged as Ritual and it won’t use a slot if out of combat, but you need to prepare the spell before. You can change prepared spells at any time outside of combat too.

It’s great they increased the caps, but at the same time those materials won’t go to the Postmaster anymore if you’re at the cap. So if you play multiple characters you can actually store less, not more.

And it’s not like they take up physical space anyway, it’s just bits on Bungie’s servers. Besides FOMO and maximizing engagement, is there any reason for the cap not being 2⁶⁴?

It’s the same, but in the US you have to add the sales tax ($2) and then tip at least 110%. That brings the total to $21.

I run my own Synapse server with bridges to WhatsApp and Telegram, along with a few other services, using Yunohost. I haven’t observed any huge resource usage, and I like the centralized management/update. One possible downside is that you won’t get the latest versions immediately, the Yunohost maintainers take time to test those. I prefer the stability that gives me but if you want to be on the edge a docker setup will be better.

Damn, they fixed Stronghold. I’m not surprised, but being an invincible swordmaster was so much fun…

A real-life moth was found to be the cause of errors in a computer, popularizing the terms “bug” and “debugging”. The culprit was attached to the report as proof:

I got Stronghold recently too but don’t have The Lament (yet), so I made a void build with Black Talon and I’m having a lot of fun with it. It’s like having a rocket launcher that gives you restoration, devour and volatile explosions all in one.

This is terrible, and Russia should be punished for it.

The correct way of influencing Spanish-speaking countries is to install fascist puppet dictatorships. Arming and bank-rolling right-wing militias is also accepted, you won’t be getting DW articles about that.

Do you all seriously edit text files directly‽

I use hexedit for all my programming, that way I can see my text’s source code. It allows things that are impossible with lesser editors, like differentiate l and 1. Newer versions even provide a “live view” that shows your text’s output right beside its source, updated almost instantly. I don’t personally use it as it consumes a lot of resources but it’s a great help if you’re just starting out.

I seriously doubt you’ll be able to see Instagram content from any other app. At most, they’ll federate Threads content. But more probably they’ll only federate inwards: Threads users will be able to follow anyone on the Fediverse, no one outside will get to see anything from inside.

I don’t think it’s BattleEye, I’ve also been getting those messages lately and I play on a PS5.

As much as all the official communication (error messages, FAQs, manuals, etc.) would have you believe the problem is on your end, I’m afraid the reality is that Bungie’s server infrastructure is just shitty and overloaded.

When the game says “You are experiencing network difficulties”, I read it as a plural you, as in “You the players”.
