This is one of the hardest earned lessons I’ve ever learned, and I’ve had to learn it over and over again. I think it’s mostly stuck now but I still make the same mistake from time to time.

As in efficient per watt or some other metric?

What the hell is Denuvo?

Sold!

You can do the right thing for the wrong reasons and this is a classic case. He’s an ethno-nationalist. Ask him how he feels about Kurdish minorities or the genocide of Armenians.

Sure, but this is the thing that really annoys me: my state has really good eID, it just doesn’t work with the EU stuff. It works with literally every other government service, most companies, often as physical ID, for payments, etc etc

I had the exact opposite experience! I went through a lengthy process of signing up for and activating the weird nonstandard eID that most places don’t accept over the normal one I already have and use for everything, the only one they supported, only to be told I can’t use it without manually contacting the company, have them invalidate my activation and then go into some office to get manually re-activated.

If you sign up with your email address, yep!

I thought it will be released but it isn’t released yet right?

The mouse controls must be atrocious on a console

No need to be that maximalist. Don’t self host email on a desktop machine you turn off.

Oh oh!!! I had the same experience but with an AMAZING anticlimax. So when the game came out it was only available for purchase in a localised version, with a horrible Swedish dub.

For context, Sweden has an official policy of not dubbing essentially anything for anyone over maybe seven years old. No other game I know of was translated even (except the sims), and certainly not dubbed. We made fun of how terrible and corny that version was for years. It sounded like morning cartoons for babies, probably because the same cast who did Sailor Moon and Pokémon did it.

I’ve never played the real version, and only sparingly played the horrific dub because the family computer wasn’t good enough.

Better source

As a reminder:

DirectX 8.0 as a reminder was introduced in late 2000 and went on to power games like Serious Sam: The FIrst Encounter, Max Payne, Star Wars: Starfighter, Grand Theft Auto III, Tom Clancy’s Splinter Cell, and many other titles now hitting around the 20+ year mark

Am I doing something wrong, it scrolls fine for me?

I’m a bit worried about their choice of name

Can you (or a human) expand NPM, presumably not the Node Package Manager?

I tried but it turns out writing device drivers it very very boring

The hell? This is precisely what atomic desktops were supposed to save us from!

I’m planning on making Linux from super scratch where I start with the kernel and write every other component myself. ETA: 9000000 years
