We already have associate options - not joining Schengen, not adopting Euro. Anything more than that results in a horrible mess of legal agreements. Imagine that suddenly each US state gets more sovereignty and they just... make different d

The core purpose of EU was not to have a war with each other. I think on that front it's been astounding success - there have been zero wars recorded between EU countries. This might sound like low bar, but my grandma was literally gen

TBH life taught me to wait until after release so that we know if it's actually good or the hype wasn't worth it. For all the good work done in GTA V it just sucks IMO. You can see the 180° flip between GTA SA "do whatever yo

On my favorite browser (Opera Mobile with desktop mode) Cloudflare verification never works. It just says "failed, please try again" forever.

I live in the Netherlands. My apartment has two floors. The upper floor is basically a greenhouse, so 40C is absolutely normal if I close the windows. During the summer I always keep at least one window open, which cools down the house to a

Open protocols always end up with a "backend engineer doing frontend" situation. Which is okay if end users are other engineers, but not okay when end user is my mom.

It really depends on your taste. If you want to be up to date with the latest stuff, then browse profiles on bsky or Twitter. furaffinity.net is a bit old school, but still active. e621.net is where you can find lots and lots of stuff and t

I never tip because if burger with fries costs €15 then we had a fucking legal contract that you'll give me a burger with fries for €15, don't be like "uuuuuuh sir I'm going to ruin your evening by asking you to pay more

Agree. I felt like I wasn't interested in art. I just didn't like it. Turns out, it's not a "me" problem, it's an "art" problem. Once I got involved in the furry community I discovered how beautiful a

This is exactly my experience. I moved into a black neighborhood and it's real bad for me. My neighbor, a white elderly woman, organizes sort of community events, but it's 90% white people from nicest houses.

On one hand I totally see your point. It's just disgusting that someone on high position is fully aware that Facebook is about making people addicted to slop and serve them exploitative ads. On the other hand, it is an organizational f

I got my first smartphone 14 years ago. It was a Samsung. It landed in trash after one year. Since then I've been on Motorolas because they're the only smartphones that tick these boxes: - SD card slot - audio jack - cheap - no s

Software speed is actually a binary thing. If it's as fast as the user then it's good. If it's not then it's bad. Think of it like a car - in theory different cars have different accelerations and vmaxes, but in practice

Unfortunately the wider cultural movement "we must avoid offending anyone at all costs" got us here. It's not only corporations, many people also behave like this in private. It's sad, but it is what it is, the only thin

> The entire US system is designed around baked in blackmail of the individual into conforming. Back when I still argued with people on reddit I was shocked to learn that normies actually believe this is a good thing. Particular example

To build on top of your argument: those books are rare because the knowledge they contain isn't valuable and nobody cares. Therefore that knowledge being destroyed isn't a bug, it's a feature. The fetish of never destroying a

I've been good at programming but I've never been passionate about it. I've always done the required minimum to meet the expectations. Therefore AI taking away passion doesn't really bother me. My problem though is that

This strategy makes sense in developing markets. People might be too poor to buy your game right now so you distribute it for free hoping that in the future they will get rich and then they'll actually buy your newer game.

As AI keeps improving, the definition of intelligence will keep changing in order to exclude it without explicitly saying so.

1. I think it's more about microtransactions than Hot Coffee. Why put cheats for free if you can monetize them. 2. Cheats don't make sense in the age of abundance of games. Previously you'd have 3 games on your PC and you&#x2

I've built my own client for Twitter. I'm using a library that a random guy maintains. It has its problems, but all of them can be worked around, and overall it feels solid, especially considering the fact that it's done by a

It's been true for almost every business. "Cheap and good enough" usually trumps "excellent but expensive". Ikea, McDonald's, Ryanair, AliExpress, Aldi - these brands prove that catering to poor people is more
