Maintaining social order, especially in the form of violent repression against demonstrations, indirectly protects the rich’s properties, so all in a day’s work.

Just yesterday, I was helping this manager set up a new system of ticket line (the kind where you get a ticket number and wait for it to be called in a panel). He complained that they didn’t have a proper printer just for these tickets, so he made the tickets in excel and printed them. To the right of the number, someone would mark the service, from a list of 6.

“Why not use a single letter prefix and print different piles of passwords? (A01, A02, A03; B01, B02, etc)”

That’ll use too much paper. We’ll also need more tickets than before

“That will use less paper, you can print 2 tickets using the same space. Also, the amount of tickets always depends on the number of people that show up, but you’ll have a better idea of which service is being needed each day”

Mr manager didn’t like the idea and moved on to another problem.

I feel like the Steam Deck is the best proof of Gabe Newell's quote that "piracy is a service issue."

They could have easily crammed the Steam Deck full of stuff to make it hard to use for piracy - locking down everything, making it usable only to play games you legitimately own, force you to go through who knows what hoops in order to play games on it. That’s what Nintendo or Apple or most other companies do....

For any game with online components, the “ideal” way to combat piracy or cheating is with leaving as much stuff on the server side as possible, not unlike an MMO. Anything left to client side validation will be hacked.

Makes me think of Summoning Salt, he does one hell of a job telling a story in each of his “history of world records” videos.

Must be part 1 of PatricianTV playing Skyrim.

Motherfucker did “Morrowind Analysis: A quick retrospective” in just under 8 hours. For fans of Elder Scrolls, it’s worth watching.

The way he completely bashed Alchemia Story in his last video makes me think that he found the bottom of the barrel. That, or he’s getting so frustrated that he won’t even try to look for silver linings anymore.

All I know about GIS is that there’s a plugin for Postgres called postGIS and it uses spatial coordinates.

Why didn't anyone remind me the dual booting exists?

I was talking to my dad yesterday and he talked about how he dual booted windows and Linux in his college days. I immediately left to download Ubuntu, I feel so dumb for forgetting it’s an option. I literally only use windows so I can play Fortnite with friends. PSA: you can have both Linux and Windows, or you can use a vm in...

Use Grub2Win (sourceforge.net/projects/grub2win/) whenever Windows manages to break dual booting. It’ll stop fucking up afterwards, as it’ll be installed within one of the windows boot partitions.

Some madlads still do. Retro City Rampage (which is already over 10 years old now, damn) was ported to the NES, so that’s some 6502 Assembly work there.

Thanks to portuguese, my mind keeps associating Flemish with flamingoes and flamenco.

ICastFist,
@ICastFist@programming.dev avatar

It is, but “a flemish person” would translate to “uma pessoa flamenga” in portuguese. 3 very similar sounding and written words that relate to very different things.

I vaguely recall them being two other dogs, but my memory’s really fuzzy on that detail.

I’ll have to watch it later

EDIT: That was it. Goes to show how fuzzy my memory was about the episode. Big thanks!
