As others have mentioned, house rules often ruin any fun. It is, by name, a game about being cutthroat towards other players and emphasizes that you optimize in the long-term purely for personal gain. This actually doesn't come natural

I basically had the opposite experience. Not sure when you tried their service, but I think I started around... probably a year ago? Maybe a bit more. After I created my account, I had to specifically request access to GPU plans. Once I got

Ahh yeah, I use the Apple keyboard cover and that's a bit cramped even for English. I can't imagine typing in German on it would be fun. Not sure if it covers everything you need, but have you tried using the Alt/Option key f

Depending on exactly what you want to work on, also look into using something like Blink[0]. I have several servers set up that I can now easily access from my iPad (or anything with an internet connection and an SSH client). I have one &qu

I can’t find the source I saw the other day, but the CDC ran out of a good chunk of its budget September 2019. Right before all this started. We, especially the US, keep treating CDC like they’re responsible for fixing diseases after they s

Either I missed that wording or it wasn't clear to me. I also may be projecting the mentality of other people I've heard planning to get cheaper travel even if it does result in other people getting sick. I cannot know your intent

Have you even once stopped to consider how your actions might affect people other than yourself? Even if you're not in the groups with high mortality rates, you can still be a carrier.

The fact that at least 5 people have replied with different tools really just emphasizes your point. Is it a perfect recreation? Of course not. Will it do every sort of image editing I might want? A definite no. Does everybody either quickl

For those that just want to do DOM selection, querySelector(All) is widely supported at this point. If you want a simple CSS framework (because you don't want to write CSS) that includes a grid system, Milligram is a useful alternative

I think you may be projecting others' arguments onto the parent. I did not read it as "everything should support the UNIX IDE" as much as expressing a preference for it and that it's a red flag if you can't even use

I don't think it's necessarily (just) for a love of 80s editors. I think it's more of a litmus test that your developer experience is too tightly coupled with specific tooling. i.e. if you can't (realistically) choose yo

I never really understood how anyone expected to have a sensible debate on "thing" vs "anything that isn't thing" (I realize "NoSQL" is somewhat better defined than that, but not by much).

Absolutely. I'm not saying that it can't help or that it isn't helping in the short-term. I'm saying that the long-term net effect could still be negative even with short-term positive effects. The original implicati

I actually really like Goodfellow & Co. (Target's clothing brand). The men's clothing are on the cheaper side but still feel like decent materials. I mostly just have t-shirts and a few polos. The t-shirts have lasted at least

It can be useful to learn and practice using manual mode. Once you start to get the feel for it, then use one of the priority modes (not just aperture). Even if aperture priority mode is all professionals use, not everybody will always be t

Totally a valid concern and this usage should probably be limited or eradicated. However, I think there is some legitimacy to it in this case considering how negative of an impact ads can have on lives. In other words, it's obviously f

Not a lawyer, but this seems to be conflating patents with copyrights? i.e. iOS (especially new versions) would fall under copyright protection [0]. PageRank is a patented technique for search. The patent apparently ran out about 6 weeks ag

IIRC/IANAL/etc, in the US backups in and of themselves are not infringement, but transferring tools that break copyright protection is illegal. So, you can back up your DVD, but you can't transfer (upload, download, etc) tool
