I think control theory, after reading the Wikipedia first paragraph, is using doing math to calculate how to consistently do a thing.
- Comment on Google looks to be fully shutting down unsupported extensions and ad blockers in Chrome, such as uBlock Origin – which might push some folks to switch to Firefox 1 month ago:
The cool kids are switching to Librewolf because whatever is happening at Mozilla is increasingly concerning by the day.
- Comment on there's now more ads in "legit" sites (YouTube, amazon) than in piracy sites 1 month ago:
Pi hole is definitely great but I’ll concede that getting that going probably qualifies as ‘going out of the way’. That said, it is worth every penny/second spent configuring.
- Comment on there's now more ads in "legit" sites (YouTube, amazon) than in piracy sites 1 month ago:
- Download Firefox (or other preferred gecko browser)
- Install uBlock Origin add-on
Really going out of the way to avoid them.

Sounds like you just had a shit advisor tbh. My advisor had suggested taking a few different classes to achieve a second degree, as well as advocating for me for some special exceptions for something, and just always reaching out a few times each term with specific things to discuss on my progress and future plans.

Why are they always Rogue planets? Never any Cleric or Barbarian planets.

It baffles me people use chrome.
- Comment on Masahiro Sakurai refused to add Dolby Surround to a Kirby game because players had to sit through the logo 5 months ago:
Yeah. It’s called principles. Maybe when your corporate overlords have some for sale you’ll be and to afford them.
- Comment on Whistleblower 'would not' put family on Boeing 787 jet 6 months ago:
Which, given the context that planes are necessary, you continue to ignore the OP:
Having the public lose trust in the safety of flying is absolutely not something you want to happen.
And then your justification for not privatizing is cronyism. So the government contracts for air travel = bad, but the ones for your project are… good??
Your comment was really just a soap box to say air=bad, trains=good. I’m not going to argue trains are bad, but maybe make an honest argument for it.
- Comment on assume the position 6 months ago:
You’re assuming the moon has maintained it’s current orbit. Maybe it just happened to get knocked out from Earth’s. That said, I’m curious how disasterous it would be for Earth if the moon was suddenly gone…

Customer: Why is there so much latency over my tunnel from us-east to us-west?
Me: checks latency seems pretty normal, what’s the issue?
Customer: The latency is too much. Why is it not as fast as us-east-1 to us-east-2?
Me: They are near each other. Us-West is across the entire United States
Customer: Make faster
Me: This is the speed of light. And over copper it’s about 2/3 that
Customer: hmm are you sure that’s as fast as it can go?
Me: Well, unless we change the laws of physics your not going to get any better latency

Then do it. You even get pro rated back for what you’ve already paid for the month. Literally go do it right now in like 90 seconds.
- Comment on Amazon To Start Running Ads In Prime Video Series & Movies, Will Launch Ad-Free Tier For Extra Fee 1 year ago:
When it stops being viable. They have no commitment to the company. They’ll suck it dry and move on to the next project.
- Comment on Calif. passes strongest right-to-repair bill yet, requiring 7 years of parts 1 year ago:
Yeah, but if you aren’t being sold subscription services, then there’s no stream of recurring revenue, and if that happens quarterly earnings won’t show a graph going up. Which means shareholders can’t go afford their backup vacation house and CEOs yachts will be a few inches shorter. Honestly, think of the yachts next time.

- Comment on Dark and Darker now has a publisher, may launch in early access today 1 year ago:
The lawsuit against them is regarding allegedly using ‘trade secrets’ and proprietary assets from Nexon, where a number of the team members previously worked. After Nexon killed Project P3 the IRONMACE devs left the company and started their own game based on the premise of an extraction dungeon crawler. After seeing their early success in alpha, Nexon got jealous and sad so the submit a frivolous lawsuit with a cease and desist / DMCA takedown on DaD on Steam.
When claiming stolen assets in their initial filing, Nexon cited publicly purchased engine store assets which is obviously ridiculous.
Both IRONMACE and Nexon are based in Korea so they are still in their legal battle there and as such DaD isn’t currently released in Korea. I guess the US case is either dismissed or at least the cease and desist was lifted.
Long story short, nothing to do with Bethesda or elder scrolls assets. IRONMACE made an awesome game and their old employer is sad they can’t cash in on something they didn’t contribute to at all. All my homies hate Nexon.
