Some chunk of that is from counter-boycotters and anti-trans NGOs (allegedly even some GONGOs like citizengo), who bought up a lot, then dumped them onto G2A, gifted them for cheap, etc.

Use the hot paprika sparingly, as the main flavoring should come from the sweet paprika, and extra flavoring can be added with cumin, black pepper, rosemary, smoked pork belly, celery, lovage, and parsley leafs; garlic, which often dependent on region too (garlic is more common in some northern regions, while others consider it heresy).
Protip: leftover bacon fat works as a very good substitute for lard, just make sure it’s not contaminated by seasoning.

When you make yourself Goulash, is it a soup? Or is it a stew that we Hungarians call as pörkölt. Do you put wine into it? Or you resist the influence of the French kitchen?
- Comment on We'll probably never see a Grand Theft Auto set in a futuristic city like GTA 2 because the team "hated it": "People didn’t connect with the game or its city" 1 day ago:
They likely already have that as plan Z already, knowing that console manufacturers demanded 3D objects in the games developers made for their consoles.

GTA2 was good, it’s just games journalists obsessed with a “3D full immersion VR future”, that they felt threatened by every 2D games made once the first Voodoo cards left the factories. The reviews were not about the games, but endless whining about they losing their “fully realistic games” (past Medal of Honor, they usually envisioned a perfect recreation of Battle of Normandy) because a man made a theme park game with accurate roller coaster physics in assembly.
The 3D push was quite similar to the current AI push, but more successful. Imagine if Microsoft blocked games being released onto XBox if they don’t have a certain amount of AI generated assets and/or “live generated content”.

I can imagine directional active cables, but not passive ones.

Linux usually just uses C API, most of which reads horribly. Libevdev is quite notorious for using files and the docs not telling you that the reading is blocking. Some additional things use C++ classes though.

Will this finally be the end of Windows?
Also fun fact: Windows uses a lot of COM Interfaces for API, which in my opinion often makes developing for Windows a better experience, than developing for Linux. Rust does not have anything OOP related by default, and are often emulated with macros instead, like in C.
- Comment on get out of my head 1 week ago:
It’s the rectum part, not the anus. The anus is normally closed, except during defecation, sexual activity, etc.
- Comment on Dell and Lenovo may limit mid-range laptops to 8GB DDR5 RAM in response to rising memory prices 1 week ago:
Meanwhile my ThinkPad L440 will soon receive an upgrade to 16 GB of RAM. (I wonder if I can get a CPU upgrade to a Core i7)

Hungarian here, we’re in the “fingers of the feet” group!

They’re genAI assets within the engine’s default ones.

I want to make a youtube channel named “le roman statue”, and it’ll be a satire of right wing reactionary movement.
- Comment on Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 loses Game of the Year from the Indie Game Awards 1 week ago:
From what I’ve heard, the placeholders came from some stock Unreal engine textures they used and forgot to replace.
- Comment on AI boom has caused same CO2 emissions in 2025 as New York City, report claims 1 week ago:
It would be higher if they counted the on-site generators.
- Comment on Alternate Ending [Death Note] 1 week ago:
I have a feeling that the Death Note would be quite transphobic for no good reason.

Lysenkoism in action…
- Comment on This AI summary is certainly shit 1 week ago:
Video is quite good actually, but most people will be forced to have an “all room” regardless, due to home and rent prices.
- Comment on Don't do it 1 week ago:
I only drink pretty rarely, because sometimes I misremember the taste of booze and think they tasted alright (no, they didn’t, especially the cheap stuff used to get drunk on the cheap).
- Comment on why we need billionaires 1 week ago:
You’re absolutely right! Isn’t it so wonderful that people found our influence so great they’re not only using us — they’re also imitating us? And I kid you not, they’ll eventually use us in their everyday life because we’re inevitable.
- Comment on surely your hobby can't be that expensive 1 week ago:
Learned it in college, first hated it because Java + webapps + PHP, then I discovered system programming through game development.

It doesn’t, but will make some people who like to rant about “normie” leftists feel better; or get rid of that content creator they don’t like, while not knowing not everyone they don’t like as a creator is a secret nazi (knew a few people like that).
- Comment on Nvidia plans heavy cuts to GPU supply in early 2026 2 weeks ago:
Amazing idea! A great open source GPU needs some well designed shader cores, and I kid you not that name is very punchy and memorable. It’s not only just a silly hobby — it’s also a very important thing in the ever changing landscape of silicon giants like nVidia and Intel.

I need to resurrect my open source GPU architecture plans ASAP. Who wants to help me to plan out the VideoDSP shader cores?
- Comment on We finally reached the future and i understand the corn meme!!!! 2 weeks ago:
Explaining the meme:
It is a reference to the porn bans of the future (which is now). The corn symbolizes the censorship of the discussion of it on most social media platforms, and that many use “corn” instead to avoid shadow bans and deboosting.
The woman’s futuristic visor symbolizes “rose tinted glasses”. Now that all porn is gone, not just the “problematic pedo-bait hentai” and the “rape fetish stuff”, she’s reminiscent of all the ones she actually consumed. She often called them not real pornography, because she didn’t found them to be exploitative, and many of her feminist academic friends described pornography as “exploitative”. Now that porn bans are in full force and with them not being checked by sex-positivist feminist academics to decide whether they should be allowed, but by ChristAI’s ChristGPT chatbot (an LLM fine tuned for maximum christofascist bias), all she’s left with is archives of her own, and the few remaining noncentralized platforms that survived the repeal of Article 230, and are hosted outside of the US.
