  I half expected ‘Just like if I’m serving soup, it’s coming with a fork. I just hate spoons’

  Sporfe

  Finding the source was a bit complicated, but it seems to be from episode 7 of DNA², the description of which does not match what you remember: web.archive.org/web/20120621103752/…/index2.php?p…

  Easy Delivery Co is a good one, but for me it feels like it doesn’t give you enough freedom to be that.

  But yeah, Sam Porter Bridges driving a car from Initial D on Play Station 1 is kinda what it feels like

  I didn’t even understand the point that it was a lie, and not the original comment had a lie, reading skill issue

  I would say Mads Mikkelsen is a plus, but it’s terrain traversal that should define a genre.

  Are you sure the story is real? I can find anything that points to it, so a link would help a lot

  Don’t know, I’ve seen swans being total assholes in Finland, in Estonia, in Czechia, so maybe in Germany around Baltic shore they are also not seen as calm

  There are a lot of animals that are seen completely not how they are, based on vibes, like wise owls, or cunning snakes, etc

  I think maybe it’s because almost any vapourwave scam has some legitimate use (NFT is definitely an exception, so maybe I’m totally wrong with other cases, too)

  Yeah, and that’s possible even if they take it for a joke that it is (or isn’t)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Jack Dorsey's New Company Falling Apart as It Forces Employees to Use AI⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, the thing also has limited scope and requires some meddling to point to necessary includes as evidenced by the first issue, afair. And the code produced is subpar I heard

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Weekly Recommendations Thread: What are you playing this week?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  The Witcher 2, native Linux version

  That is a bit more problematic than it should, the launcher doesn’t work without discontinued dependencies, the configuration doesn’t work at all (had to edit configuration file manually), and the controls seem a bit off so I decided to play on easy difficulty not to embarrass myself too much with doing completely wrong moves because they are mapped in a weird way (imo)

  But it still looks pretty good and seems interesting so far, it will definitely take a lot of time to explore, and then I will still have a third game to play

  Yeah, afaik, there’s need for accounting for magnetic North difference from North when navigating even on foot, so it’s stated on the map with small enough scale

  Same on Thunder, I thought it’s intentional

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨it's a long distance relationship⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  If this apparent relationship between flares and decay rates proves true, it could lead to a method of predicting solar flares prior to their occurrence

  So, can we predict the flares now? I’ve taken a look at Ephraim Fischbach’s articles and it seems that we’re very far from that, so the article you linked is interesting but overstates the facts by a lot. This is what I found the best explanation so far:

  Some experiments seem to yield strong evidence of variability of beta-decay rates, but other experiments may show little or no such evidence. Some recent experiments help clarify the situation. In particular, a certain oscillation appears in neutrino measurements made at the Super-Kamiokande Neutrino Observatory and in radon beta-decay measurements made at the Geological Survey of Israel, with identical frequency (9.43 years ⁻¹ ), amplitude and phase, strengthening the case for an influence of neutrinos on beta decays. A review of current experimental information leads us to suggest that 1) beta-decay rates do not change, but 2) the angular distribution of decay products may be anisotropic, and 3) the angular distribution of decay products may be influenced by the ambient neutrino flux. It appears that experiments at standards laboratories tend to be insensitive to direction, and this may be the reason that they tend not to exhibit evidence of variability.

  And even this I would take with a grain of salt

  The this:

  [Author] portrays Shangri-La as a mystical, harmonious valley, gently guided from a lamasery, enclosed in the western end of the Kunlun Mountains. In the novel, the people who live in Shangri-La are almost immortal, living hundreds of years beyond the normal lifespan and only very slowly ageing in appearance

  I guess whether this is true or not will be a defining point of the whole lawsuit
