If you want to avoid counting towards reddit’s traffic, take a look at LibReddit / LibRedirect

TOTK performance on switch is not bad at all. I don’t know where what perception came from. I haven’t experienced any low frame rate issues after 100 hours.

Did you enjoy BOTW?

I have a bad sense of direction IRL but an excellent sense of direction in games. I don’t think it necessarily transfers. I love open world games.

I agree, it’s been pretty bad for a few years now at least.

Is there anything like this for kbin?

The IARC ruling […] is intended to assess whether something is a potential hazard or not [… and] does not take into account how much of a product a person can safely consume.

From the article. ^^^

This is something people frequently overlook. A substance may be a “possible carcinogen” and also completely benign at levels any sane person would consume.

Bananas also contain carcinogenic material, but eating bananas is still very much a healthy thing to do. There’s a reason banana equivalent dose is a concept, and “the dose makes the poison” is a common refrain in toxicology.

It sounds like YouTube is running experiments with small groups of users. You may not see anything until it’s rolled out to everyone.

Elden Ring again after taking a break from it for a while. Exploring new areas, it’s fun.

Nutritional yeast is also amazing. Gives it a cheesy flavor, and it’s healthy to boot!

I prefer to airpop it in the microwave and then spritz EVOO (extra virgin olive oil) on afterwards. EVOO is delicious, and unrefined oils like EVOO retain more flavor if you don’t heat them.

So instead of ‘up’ and ‘down’, you have a clickable emoji-menu like list of tags like ‘interesting’, ‘boring’, ‘funny’, ‘WTF!?’, ‘Quality’, ‘Trash’, ‘Educational’, ‘CAT’, etc…

I’m not sure about this. How do you decide which qualities users can rate? How do you ensure those qualities work across instances with different languages / cultures? You’re also taking something which is extremely low effort and making it take significantly more time and effort. I think the simplicity, universality, and low effort of upvote / downvote are all strengths.

1 core developer and 199 other people trying to figure out how they can extract more money from users

The only parts of this video that are relevant to piracy are: 1) does it prevent your ISP from seeing your traffic (it does), and 2) can you trust a VPN when they say they have a “no logging” policy (depends on the VPN but IMO there are several that can be trusted). The rest is just debunking false marketing claims about how VPNs improve your security or whatever.

I cook Jamie Oliver’s “basic tarka dhal” all the time. It doesn’t take that much time in my experience, and being a basic recipe it lends itself to lots of variations. Highly recommend.

I’ve always felt that pair programming is more useful on early stages of a task, where there is enough doubt about implementation details and discussing them is worth.

Is pair programming the right way to address unknowns around implementation? It seems like a brainstorming / whiteboarding session might be a better fit.

SEO and propaganda / misinformation campaigns

It really is. And now I’m excited to see how Rick & Morty does it.

I look at it from the standpoint of federated social media dethroning the reigning social media “monopolies”. Companies like Facebook, Twitter, and now Reddit have shown that they want engagement at all costs and will prioritize profit over people. The faster they die, the better.

From this perspective, numbers and growth are important (although of course they’re not everything): People won’t jump ship to a new platform unless there is a critical mass of users, because a platform needs a sufficient number of users to provide the same variety of user generated content and communities that people have come to expect.

More people using federated social media also means more developers, better apps, and a better user experience for everyone using it.

There’s a snowball effect, and maybe one day we’ll get out from under our rich social media overlords.

Yep, to me it really depends on the welfare of the animal donors and the circumstances around donation.
