You'd have a leg to stand on if shows didn't get called "woke" for sharing a single pre-production screencap featuring a single black person, but that's exactly what happens.

I used to use this obscure little piece of software for that called Apache. Maybe y'all have heard of it. Though I think it's getting some competition from this unknown little project called nginx. Really looking forward to that s

I generally agree with you, but I strongly disagree that "politician" is in the same class as any random person. I find it rather bizarre that anyone would find more stringent requirements of politicians to be "insane" i

You aren't wrong in theory, but in practice it's silly to pretend like the average person knows anything but Google. There comes a point where inertia and market share need to be considered and for some products (like Google, but

I guess I got fairly lucky when I was using Linux as a daily driver. The only thing that I would need to fix after a major update was my Nvidia drivers, and I ended up writing a Bash script to do it for me since 99% of the time it was just

Mentioned elsewhere in the thread, the author might be alluding to the quickly-aging Mono implementation as that's common in game engines with C# support (e.g. Unity and Godot).

There's the Mono version that supports C#, which is also faster than GDScript already, if it's at all a (real) sticking point. And you can use C/C++ or Rust if you really want.

5950X, 32 gigs of RAM, Win10, Firefox 98, 3080Ti (if it's GPU accelerated, I didn't look) and it's super jittery for me. It's usable, but it's not smooth at all. Dragging windows around is pretty bad.

> You may soon learn to adapt and actually just move your wrists more than your arms. I'm not convinced that someone learning that they can cheat themself out of the exercise, and then doing it, is a proper criticism of Beat Saber.

Thrill of the Fight has an adaptive punch power setting that lets you play it at a lower intensity, that might help you.

Most people can grind through motion sickness. If you're willing to deal with feeling queasy for a night or two, it's worth the effort. I wasn't able to handle continuous motion in VR until I decided to just play through Bone

Both of those things are true simultaneously. YouTube and other Google products are advised against for long term storage because Google's acting this way is entirely unacceptable. Until the latter can be fixed, the only real hedge a

I've known about JS scope lifting for a very long time but even still I had no idea that it would lift iterators in a for-loop all the way to global scope and not just to the function scope without strict mode, that's nuts.

That's the original date on the file, but the comment being discussed (and much of the code in that function, it seems) was from 17 years ago. See the git-blame: https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blame/f4

I often wonder how various products sort out on this question because while this example makes sense, other ones would not. A common example is ladders. I might buy more than one because you need two lengths, but I can't imagine many

It's in their best interest for less desirable prospects to show up and keep paying for Tinder Gold. Desirable prospects will leave the platform; they're valuable for marketing the platform, but are not valuable as customers.

Iterating over an enum in TypeScript always felt like code smell to me because of the filtering code I'd have to write to deal with the bidirectional mapping.
