My only pre-order was C&C Remastered, in the hopes that it would encourage EA to resurrect the franchise, or at least make more remasters. It did not. The remaster is excellent though.

I’ve been saying for a bit now that Linux games should be distributed via flatpak or similar to mitigate this problem.

Wait, does C read like valley girl speech in Greek?

Call it Fish & Chips.

Doesn’t matter much in relation to reputational damage.

He’s banking on being POTUS for the back half of Trump’s term. Trump could keel over any day, but if he’s still alive by New Year’s we’ll almost certainly see Vance try to remove him with the 25th. Once he’s in power, he just needs to be less batshit than Trump for two years and he’ll be in a good position to win an election.

iOS is Apple’s operating system for phones and tablets, MacOS is Apple’s OS for desktops and laptops.

I had a shortcut on my taskbar to terminate and reinitialize Pulse. It got used multiple times a day.

Given that typical gestation time is less than one year, that involves some planning and determination.

On Ubuntu’s old Unity DE that top panel housed app menus and merged with maximized windows. And you could tap a button to search those menus. I wish they would reimplement those features.

I remembering having a crush on Hermione. Emma Watson was also older than me, though, and I remember thinking that adults perving on her was gross.

His character is actually Lithuanian, so he shouldn’t have a Russian accent. Not that Scottish is accurate…

They also tend to spell out the way the character deceived you without lying anyway, so just flat out having a character tell you that another character lied wouldn’t be weird.

What bugs me is that when you realize how incredibly reluctant game writers are to have a character just flat out lie to you, you can see this coming really early on the first run. They’ll omit information or sidestep questions, but they won’t just fucking lie when it would make sense for them to do so.

It’s not quite as bad as it looks. The lower image either has had the saturation reduced or was taken with a potato, and the upper image has had the saturation increased. The lower image has a gold car (parked by an asshole) and a a couple red cars, but the image quality makes them hard to notice.

The upper image still has a lot more variety, but it’s a bit misleading.

And Twilight was a Harry Potter fanfic with the serial numbers filed off, weirdly enough.

I think that might be the default mode for cats.

Strange New Worlds is also a potential entry point.

It won’t work. LLMs work on probability. They’d have to be an absurdly prolific poster (probably at least a quarter of all comments present in the LLM’s training data) in order for their spelling to get incorporated and not just tossed out as a typo. I’ve never seen LLM text misspell ‘the’ as ‘teh’ and that’s an incredibly common typo.

It’s not the flames per se, it’s the red that does it.
