Who cares? Well the grand parent post references Europe, it is presumably a response to that.

To me it seems a bit childish to demand that some business must provide me with exactly what I want forever because at one point I paid for their service.

I was wondering why potholes in my city in the UK have got outlines of dicks and balls sprayed around. Maybe this is why.

I'm Irish. Well northern Irish. The Republic Ireland seems a lot richer than when I was growing up in n. Ireland. Ireland is the second biggest exporter of software in the world now. I'm pretty certain the tax paid by both corpora

Presumably you were in the USA? We had grey imports in the UK too, but it was prohibitively expensive. My family was relatively well off, but no way I'd have been able to wangle an expensive import super famicom. Even worse when the s

All ports by capcom are good :) which means all console ports (apart from the sega master system port, which is impressive just not by capcom). The Amiga, spectrum etc etc ports were god awful. Though apparently the super street fighter por

Yes, UK terminology is confusing. Easier just to say state and private, and I think more and more do say this.

And a UK thing, well not so much northern Ireland, but the rest of the UK uses catchment areas and I'm experiencing this now.

Thank you. So windows historically has been careful to ensure that it's abi is stable where as Linux relies more on users recompiling against binaries, which is a problem if you are shipping binaries rather than source code? Presumabl

I'm eternally confused by what an ABI actually is. Especially now that people say the win 32 api is the stable Linux ABI. Genuine question, what is the difference as they both seem to be conflated.

My second child's terrible 2s is approximately 600x worse than her sisters. Joking aside, it's actually surprisingly way way tougher.

Google says sdram in 1997 was 7 to 10 dollars per megabyte. So 384 would be 3840 not 40,000 am I missing something here?

I bought a DC on launch week, it's one of my favourite consoles of all time. I still own one. But what has bleemcast got to do with what the parent said?

My main worry is this is just another step towards government controlling discourse online. Once implemented it will become difficult to be anonymous on social media. Some one in the UK civil service was quoted in the Times, they stated th

I see it money as a wall. Without it, me and my family are defenceless. My goal is keeping us safe.

And yet people risk their lives to get to the USA. They vote with their feet. It isn't perfect but declaring "it isn't working", my response "compared to what". I'm from the UK, it isn't in great shap

The raising interest rates right now makes no sense to me. Energy prices and layoffs will kill spending power. I think the central banks will overcompensate because they got inflation so wrong the last time.

Are you saying you interviewed meta engineers and found this? Or is this speculation?

That is sort of my point, I can't think of a developed country that hasn't westernised to some extent.

by pipes 6mo ago
Which other developed countries do you mean? The only ones I can think of, have westernised on purpose. E.g. Singapore and Japan.

I was going to say "why on earth are you making them use a line editor there is probably a vscode plugin for the assembler with syntax highlighting" then I got to your point about it being in their head instead. This reminds me of

I hate having endless options of what to do in a game. It feels somewhat similar to a day at work. Flow state is impossible when I constantly feel opportunity cost. I think modern games focus mostly on content rather than figuring out what
