Sure.

0) Neuroshima Hex! - It's an OS for battles. The armies are little programs and battles are when you let two programs execute simultaneously.

1) 51st State - Same universe/publisher as Neuroshima Hex! You carve out turf in a post-apocalyptic America. Cards in the game can be played in 1 of three ways. a) Incorporate. Bring it into your state. b) Make a deal. Establish an ongoing trading relationship. c) Conqueror. Smash it for parts. A school would give you a worker/turn + victory point if you incorporate it, a worker/turn if you make a deal, and three workers at once if you conqueror it. Some factions are better at offense, some are better at trading, etc. It's great with 5.

2) Ticket to Ride. It's simple. Got it when it first came out, still play it.

3) Cuba Libre/Falling Sky/GMT COIN games in general. It models insurgencies across history. Caesar in Rome, The American Revolution, etc. Great ways to get people interested in history.

4) 4X Space Games. Space Empires 4X & Twilight Imperium especially.

5) Codenames. It's the best way to get to know new people. Like really get to know how they think. I made a massive multiplayer version of it a few years ago.

6) Bios Megafauna. The rulebook for this one is not the product of an ordered mind. The rules are in seemingly random order, some rules or exceptions only appear in the glossary, and the footnotes are full of scientific/pseudo-scientific ramblings.. And it's a lot of fun.

7) Starship Troopers. The 1970's Avalon Hill game. It's a neat hex-and-counter skirmish game.

8) Railways of the World. Started off as Railroad Tycoon: The Board Game. Play it with as many people around the table as possible.

For RPGs:

0) Warhammer Fantasy Role-Play 4th edition. Incredible. I had absolutely no interest in Warhammer before picking it up.. Now I'm painting a few Warbands for Warcry, have 6th-8th edition of Warhammer Fantasy Battles, and Blood Bowl is setup on my table. WFRP's a really solid game that blends the best of D&D and Call of Cuthulu. And, I really like The Old World as a setting.

1) Conan: Adventures in an age undreamed of. It's a 2d20 game (the Star Trek version is great too) that's equal parts RPG and dissertation on the works of Robert E. Howard.

2) DCC RPG. If you like D&D, play DCC. It's a heavily modified 3rd edition with a bonkers spell system and level-0 meat grinder dungeons. Some games try to be weird through art and tone.. DCC is weird through mechanism. It works. Everyone generates 4+ characters, runs them through a meat grinder, whoever survives to the end is your 1st level character, backstory included. <--THIS IS THE ONE if you want to create your own setting or run a hex crawl.

Overwhelming number of games:

I don't read reviews or watch videos. I still do what I've always done: Walk into game stores/conventions and buy what looks interesting. You get a lot of junk but also find great games that you might have missed because the internet decided that they are bad. If a game is popular you're not going to miss it. Just look around to see what people are playing at 12:00 AM at game store/con.
I agree that Google is terrible at its job and produces garbage most of the time. That's the only reason why an LLM chatbot is seen by anyone as a viable replacement.

But at the very least Google always gives you the source, which allows you to read it for yourself and judge its trustworthiness. No such option for ChatGPT.

I do not have a specific answer for you but I can give a generalized one. Avoid at all costs the domains that historically had the least costs. Spammers pick up the cheap/free domains and their TLD's gain a very bad reputation. Spamhaus [1] has a list of the most abused top level domains. Avoid those at very least.

I’m running the Steam Deck and it is an absolute generational shift in gaming on Linux. The majority of games now run totally without problems.
At first glance you seem to be comparing events that have to be witnessed vs database entries that are centralized, heavily audited, and very accurate.

It’s a lot easier to match patterns in a db vs. real life crime.
Something along the line of stimulus money, they could say something like when we gave free money to people during covid, and a lot was stolen. With CBDC's we can protect you, and stop the bad people, it's highly secure and can't be used for bad things. Without CBDC's we can't give you the free money you badly need, the people that argue against CBDC's are bad, they want to stop you feeding yourself and family with the free money we want to give you.
I use input-mapper on Linux to achieve the same. It’s truly a game changer. Converting 1 useless but highly accessible key into 2 useful ones is fantastic.

You never told me this so I didn't know, short of email there is now way to contact you without a public post either. How would I know you would consider light humor in that specific context (with positive upvotes) "low quality", the humor and sarcasm behind the rate of poor quality products from Google resulting in a continuous stream of HN posts like "Tell HN:Help, google locked me out" was the value in my comment, if I don't know that you consider something like that low value and why that is, I will just continue to post the same type of comments forever? There are many ways you can show me my account is in such a state as well so I can evaluate the quality of my post.

Again, I don't criticize the measures you take just the lack of transparency and communication. I have no desire to debate your rules, just to undersrand them so that I can follow them.

I think you know like a sibling comment mentioned, how easy it is to just create a new account or be hostile/uncooperative. If you prefer that, your plan will work with most people (and eventually myself unless my writing style gives me up). Shadow moderation is an act of hostility which is unfair when we are being cooperative.
It gives literally the same argument for 42 being prime as 23.
Where I work our laptop runs OSX but we're not allowed to do any work on it (and it's heavily locked down to prevent it.) Instead all of our actual work is done on a machine we ssh into.
If you use Windows at home I wonder if it would be wrong to list all three popular OSes.
My 4 year old Mac Mini had been showing some flakiness and finally I got an error about "hash mismatch detected on volume" - ran memtest and sure enough the RAM had gone bad. I rely on this machine for all my media, backups, etc, goodness knows what data I may have lost while the RAM was bad. It's a moderately common problem, found plenty of people with the same issue.
ICEs will also use recycled exhaust to warm intake air. There's a separate sensor for intake air temp and I think a separate oxygen sensor that should inform the fuel mix.

At least in my performance car, there are separate gauges for engine oil, transmission fluid, coolant and air intake temperatures. Those are all exposed to me in dash.

I think traditionally, the only temperature exposed to the driver is the coolant temperature as that's usually the only one that really causes problems with overheating.
Modifier keys all belong under the thumb. Keyboard designers absolutely need to read John Napier’s masterpiece Hands and design to account for this anatomical reality. The thumb works in opposition with the fingers.
Can you point to any specific incompatibility? Most OS licensed code can be used as a dependency in AGPL code.
"Australia", understood as a nationwide polity attending to its aggregate interests, barely exists. The part of it that decides what happens to resources (ie. the resource owners and client governments) doesn't give a crap about value-adding, because it can make scads of cash from exports without having to deal with much in the way of messy labour relationships, etc.

There are some signs of change however. The resource industry is currently looked at with more suspicion than I've seen here before. Time will tell.
I'm not questioning the AI revolution, I'm questioning the applicability of large generative language models to information retrieval. We need a different kind of model for that, not just a few tweaks here and there to this one.
My experience is that the viscosity modifiers are more warm-thickening than cold-thinning modifiers. It seems to behave like a low-viscosity base oil and additives to reduce thinning with temperature. (Not a petro /materials engineer.)
Not at all. I'm sure that with practice i could outperform the car. But why bother? My view of the automation in my car is that together we both drive better than either of us do on our won.
It sucks for things that can be monetised. Searching info on products for example. Just because SEO spammers are too good. text generators will make this problem so much worse because the spam will look exactly like the hand made content.
Let’s not forget that the other players in the OS game are literally the biggest and richest companies in the world. Apple, MS, Google. It’s phenomenal what Linux has achieved and will continue to achieve
That has been my experience this year as well. After a frustrating bout with my video drivers on windows, my thinking was "well, that is usually what keeps me coming back to windows whenever it happens on Linux, so what do I have to lose?"

Turns out Debian+KDE +Wayland is exactly right for me, especially KDE connect. The only pain point has been VR gaming, so I've kept a minimal windows install on a small ssd. Everything else has been smooth sailing and I'm considerably less frustrated by design choices when I can just fix them.
>One thing I can’t get my head around is Twitter censoring joke accounts. Do you think it was because they were under so much time pressure that they erred on the side of trusting the Government suggestions?

If a joke account specifies it's a joke account in it's profile information, great. But that content doesn't get displayed when someone shares a tweet made by that account.

Now, think about how many times you may have come across something on the internet that was a joke, but also easy to misread as a serious comment. Such is the nature of a lot of online dialogue.

You've now got a tweet that can easily be (mis)read as truthful, being shared by people on their accounts who could insist to their own followers (who might not do their own due diligence and look at the joke account's profile to see that it's fake) that it's real, and voila, suddenly you've got a joke being used to spread misinformation.

I'm not defending Twitter or taking a side here, nor am I saying that's what happened. But it's a possibility that that's one perspective taken.
Isn't Toyota thinikg this, and has said so much already?
You are completely right, this is hosted by Bitwarden so in the end you would be better of building from source yourself.
I like valtio, works w/ React or just js. Has subscribe, derive, and more.

I don't know. It'd be interesting to know. But I imagine there's less public information about their investments after their terms end, no?

In any case. I'm not saying there is no insider trading going on in Congress. After all, there are hundreds of representatives. Of course some are greedy idiots, and some even criminals. But the majority, and I believe thats a large majority, are honest people who care about the people they represent.
> If you need to build an architecture which involves microservices, I am sure that your cloud provider has a solution that fits better than Kubernetes. E.g: ECS for AWS.

Thank you! So many people running unnecessary things on Kubernetes
If you have a few days in Paris, visiting the gardens and the house of the famous painter in Giverny is highly recommended.

It’s a wonderful and inspiring place of peace and beauty, and the inspiration for Monet’s work.
When the incentives are 70% of your revenue, very difficult to change track in 1-2 years.
I respect your passion and faith but I think you are very mistaken.

I tried to read some of the Quran but couldn’t find anything that spoke to me. Can you recommend any good sections or translations? Maybe the parts that make you so certain of the afterlife?

I will criticise one of your points since it seems fairly objective. Aren’t there many versions of Quran and countless hadiths? https://answering-islam.org/Green/seven.htm
OP said: We can do better

You replied: it should be improved, not (it cannot be completely 100%) fixed

Your error: replying to a strawman
I feel like non-free OSes like OSX and Windows are exhausting. Everything is driven by politics and PR rather than what actually works and it's all made artificially inflexible. Trivial things become rocket science because of this war over mind share.

I think it really depends on what you use at home though. I've run Linux as my primary OS from the beginning (when I got my first laptop at 10y/o.) If you use different technology at work and at home you're probably going to run into this. Something I've done in the past when this gets bad is to find excuses to use the technology at home (even if I think it's inferior to what I would have otherwise chosen.) This tends to resolve the problem even if I don't stick with it.
A 128-core 4TB "pet" is much easier to manage than the equivalent Kubernetes cluster with same capacity.

Not saying it's the way to go for every situation.
Or we imagine chatgpt running on a beowulf cluster to confirm that bsd is dead.
This is just weird. Not living on the US and people here take taking antibiotics seriously, because they often have nasty side effects like messing around with digestion, making you otherwise feel like shit. People don't ask for strong antibiotics just for a common cold or the flu.
The scenario sounds extremely implausible; a chain with 90% colluding actors would be worthless, and the remaining 10% of honest users would likely exit to another chain that is not majority run by malicious nodes.

For example: migrating to a new chain ID and restarting with a validator set limited only to the public keys of the 10% who are acting honestly, and loosening that restriction slowly over time.

The attack would end up being extremely costly: not only because it makes the original chain’s token price worthless (who wants to be on a malicious chain?), but because the attacker may also have their deposit slashed in the new chain by the now-majority of honest users defending it.
They are equivalent in the US layout, which doesn’t have AltGr. For software developers, the US layout is the most ergonomic, and I’d recommend using a Compose key for diacritics and such (I use the Caps Lock key as the Compose key). I’m not from the US, so no home bias here. :)
> I get it's a hard problem. The primary source could have reasons to lie. I've just seen too many cases where I've seen the secondary source was wrong either being the primary source or being at the primary source.

I've seen just as many cases where the subject of some article tried to influence it, bend it, or outright fake facts on it. Believing them could be considered worse than a bunch of secondary sources. Those are obviously not bullet-proof either, but there is more inertia to it to fake it. Like paper ballots. In theory, can be faked, but the endeavor is enormous.

You're right. It's a hard problem.
I’m not sure this is a case of bring crippled or a purposeful design. It is not thinking. It has consumed all kinds of political articles and it is generating responses in a predictive manner. It is not thinking about what you actually want to know.
Is this an actual release or a nebulously-licensed dump of some random port? If it's the former, that's awesome as this was one of my favourite games as a kid.
> If they were genuinely valued product differentiators those models would have been rewarded

Can't vote with your wallet for a product that nobody is offering.

But you're half right. When my mom buys a phone, she doesn't think about those things, but when she calls me and says "my phone is full what do I do?" I would previously have advised her to pop in an SD card, but that option no longer exists.
I will offer a third perspective: Linux has a really horrible user experience on the Desktop but it is the least shit option of the mainstream operating systems.

For me the choice is simple because a non-free operating would not be acceptable. And no, I am hardcore ideological about it, I use a Linux Kernel with binary blobs and all but the point is having system that serves me and me alone. Telemetry, advertisement, forced updates, not allowing me to do whatever the fuck I want with my system are non-starters.

Beyond the ideological I want to note that while learning curve with Linux is steep there are some aspects that make it worth it:

It is mostly a one time investment: Linux is pretty conservative. Once you get it, you get it and wont really have to learn anything new. Most of the time even the bigger disruptions to the ecosystem are not that relevant to the end user and can always be simply avoided if one chooses to, not just for years but decades or forever.

Compare this to Windows. I used Windows XP heavily and absolutely wouldn't be able to perform basic tasks on an modern Windows system. In comparison, if as Linux user from the Windows XP era were teleported into our times, they would still feel at home on today's Linux and could be perfectly productive in nearly not time.

If you are in tech, you might have to learn Linux anyway: Linux server skills are really important to have. And these skills translate back to the Linux Desktop and vice versa as well.

Also docker performance is vastly better on Linux than on Windows or Mac so that alone makes the Linux the best platform for developers. (Not to mention many tools being only Linux native or having priority Linux support.)

Also people need to stop using Ubuntu. I have been using Linux for ages and find the UI super confusing and wouldn't be able to do anything on it. It's just shit.

Use Linux Mint.

Oh and I am using NVIDIA GPUs just fine on Linux. I had some trouble with freezes and crashes but most of these got fixed in updates.

Maybe we can use Haiku as a daily driver one day but for now there is really no good alternative to Linux.
Both movements in the US are very neoliberal.

The US doesn’t have a real “left” movement. It has a center movement at most.

Most posters here are talking about economics - which have little to do with “woke” anything.
Yeah some sects can get whacky. I think the core Buddhist tenets are pretty much absurdity free but I agree that it’s not simple to determine.

Are there any beliefs in particular you were thinking of?
I really hope a solution can be found and python can get true lazy imports (without doing the manual thing). I work in the ML/AI space and manual lazy imports are basically mandatory unless you want several seconds to see usage text from `footool --help`. Why "pay" for executing code you don't use?

Manual lazy import meaning:

def uses_foo(x):
import foo
return foo.bar(x)

Manual lazy import sucks because:

- it's just ugly, I like imports all at the top so I can see all the deps

- bad for static analysis

- performance hit every time the function is called

Eschewing lazy imports has several problems:

- you always pay the execution cost, even if you don't use it

- also bad for static analysis and testing, since you have to eat the import time even if the code block you want to test doesn't execute the expensive path

- sometimes you need lazy import to avoid circular import errors

It's too bad that the main impediment to this is existing code which relies on side effects. Import-time side effects are an absolute pain in the ass. Avoid it at all costs.

Isn't MDM very much anathema to the Linux user's philosophy? I've avoided it pretty sternly.
Given everything we've seen in the last year alone, I'd not gamble against that kind of model being just around the corner.

I can think up architectures I could draw on a napkin that could do this. Focused research teams will nail this.

It's coming.

Getting new forced updates is one of the greatest drawbacks of Win11 compared to say Win7.

Google is now a mess of SEO crap, and they still don't allow blocking certain sites in search results.
That's not what arbitrary means. The fact that someone is spending on something non-essential doesn't make that spending arbitrary. Lipstick is non-essential but that doesn't mean the spending on it is arbitrary.

I'm quite confident that a lot of thought goes into pretty much all government spending, even if a proportion is misguided, counter productive, and non-essential.
Yeah, but they will be. I use it exclusively instead of Google for fact finding. Yes, you can't find a restaurant with it. But it's incredible for teaching programming and general known knowledge.

I cannot understand why the tech crowd has blinders on for AI. I'm 40 years old and have been a programmer since I started playing with BASIC since I was in elementary school.

The shit GPT is doing, I thought I'd never seen in my lifetime.

Maybe people are afraid of being replaced, or not being "special magical beings". Y'all are biological robots. You need to accept that.

AI is going to trounce humans in literally everything in a matter of a few years.

Maybe it's an existential problem, I don't know, but I feel everyone is missing the forest for the trees.
ChatGPT itself is an experimental application of a research program a lot older than that.
There are small bumps on the F and J keys so that you can feel when you are correctly on the home row.
It absolutely is meant as a criticism of Mastodon. Any social product that does not have user experience as the top priority is not gonna make it. It's really that simple. Simply providing a platform for communities, as you say, is not sufficient by itself. We already have plenty of platforms for that, like Reddit and Discord (and, perhaps formerly, Twitter).
Do you mean bare metal?

It would not only be the government. It would also involve the media and it would present their case for the labeling. It's not a blanket trust. And it doesn't remove the media, just labels it.

These articles are always missing the important numbers:

What is the conversion factor between electricity->hydrogen->electricity?

How much does storing hydrogen cost per kwh?

What is the density of that storage? Per kg or m^2?

What is the leakage rate for that storage? (hydrogen is tiny so tends to leak out of containers)

How much does a the hydrogen producer cost per KW? The hydrogen consumer?

> I have literally no idea what you mean by "convergence" (in this context), so I'm going to guess that no; I'm not. Particularly since you appear to be using it as a rhetorical cudgel (meaning a stick to hit someone over the head with).

You are doing an excellent job of demonstrating what "bad faith" means.
One of the use cases I have for google is just as a sort of fuzzy grep. This is often useful for finding solutions to obscure bug reports on open source projects. Similarly, I often use google to search for things like flights, reviews, business operating hours, weather and hotels. This is entirely diffrent from chatGPT. I think viewing both as competitors to each other is weird.
