PSA: Inkscape is good now!

How is your network handling telemetry shenanigans?

They get you in different ways. Maybe Dave the Diver hooks you with some fun farm and restaurant mechanics. Then you make a little garden in Valheim and that feels pretty good. You think maybe you’ll experiment with a bit of Stardew. Then next thing you know, BAM you’re mainlining Farming Simulator-- Ironically at first, and then not.

When they send over these time travelers, they’re not sending their best…

Lol why is Aqua Net hairspray specifically the thing that takes them down? Like other brands of hairspray don’t work? Spray paint or Elmer’s glue or maple syrup aren’t effective? You can’t just throw a bedsheet over them or hit them with a crowbar?

Lol I went through the exact same process.

Can confirm. Mine will take about 3 days to charge from very low to full on a regular wall outlet. Still worth it sometimes though, like when I’m visiting family or camping or something. If I’m gonna spend the day somewhere (like 6+ hours, let’s say) it might be worth it.

From the paper:

Our findings suggest that participants employed shared yet flawed heuristics to differentiate AI from human poetry: the simplicity of AI-generated poems may be easier for non-experts to understand, leading them to prefer AI-generated poetry and misinterpret the complexity of human poems as incoherence generated by AI.

Well who else is he gonna exercise?

It’s just any time there’s that much excitement, it must be no good, you know?

I didn’t actually realize that he didn’t say “metric fuckton” until I saw your comment and went back to reread it.

Well yes it needs to be inaugurated first, which will not happen until January.

I interpreted “it” in the post title as referring to Linux. Firefox is “just a browser,” but Linux is not.

Good to know you can just nope the PSN login. I haaaate games requiring accounts for single-player experiences, but if you can just say no, I don’t resent them asking as much.

It’s not ideal to need a launcher

So… I guess GoG is ideal then, because you don’t need a launcher for GoG games. You download the installers and boot up the game directly. I often get Steam to launch them instead, for the controller support. The GoG launcher is strictly optional.

I cast Pass Without Trace

Playing Diplomacy I’m pretty sure violates the Geneva convention.

Yep, you did it-- Mint is the right answer!

Damn okay well if the hackers are at that level I guess you’re just screwed.

Mine is not a Tesla, and its range is exaggerated… Or at least its range has a hidden asterisk that would read “under ideal conditions with a gentle driving style.” It self-adjusts based on my recent driving history, and I mostly don’t let the battery get low enough that I have to care about how precise it is… But it definitely skews heavily optimistic, especially when I first bought the car. It’s roughly the same in that regard as a Tesla is, according to the Tesla drivers I know.
