I just had a look at the trailer, and I'm trying not to poo on it's parade, but this thing looks... disappointing - worse than most in-game cut-scenes these days. It doesn't even feel "Artistic", and I'm defini

There are hundreds of them (everyone has an opinion about which is best). And most of them go out of their way to hide the nonsense that they have to jump through to get git to behave as the GUI expects it. Some of the visual git GUI tool

I could just as well argue that your explanation of this is also a "brilliant strategy" to dismiss any potentially valid concerns the other side may have. If we can't even get this dynamic right, and both sides have convolute

Had this on another comment, but decided to respond here more in the root: If Russia invades a NATO country, then you guys can worry about WW3. Until then, leave it be. We could have avoided a million deaths by now if we weren't adaman

Russia is an enemy of the Left and "wokeness" specifically at this point, for sure. I'd oddly posit that Russia is at least semi-aligned with the "sane & conservative" values that the MAGA movement represents, s

Again, back to my original point. We've been "trying" this "surgical" approach for decades, and a lot of people believe that it wasn't working with things getting objectively and subjectively worse. Why? I&#x27

I was referring to the election of Trump and the people he's appointed. Everything was rotting from the inside out and infested, and like with everything that is rotted/rusting, you will have to carve it all out to clean it, and s

Oh I think the only reason they did that is because that was the "hip" and "schnazzy" UX flow that everyone signed off and loved because "oh this will be amazing for users". So apps, and even websites, have jus

Trump even broke HN if this is the kind of discussion we're having as a result.

I'm very cognizant of that, and I would understand it if they came back and reasoned or debated with me. But I promise you, the stuff I got back from some of these individuals was pure talking points and they were downright hostile and

Or a different take (because we didn't really do the "numbers" and removed all variables and angles to this): - Right-leaning individuals are more likely to want to live in rural areas. Arguably to be left alone by leftist po

This is such surface level and frankly lazy dismissal of a stance or political view that a huge swath of people hold. It's like your "education" didn't really prepare you for the fact that other smart or educated peopl

Neither solutions are stopping what is an en-masse creation of fake AI auto-generated content that's impersonating famous celebrities. The example above was ads, but I'm seeing actual youtube videos that clearly mimick the name an

Many have already left South Africa. Unfortunately, it's very concentrated with the ones with the skills and finances to afford such a move. Leaving mostly the poor and roots-grounded individuals that are left. At this point, South Afr

How about we wait until he starts advocating for sterilization in any official capacity before cancelling him? Judging from the article, what he's saying isn't that bad - it's just that we're so accustomed to filtered ra

If it's a hybrid inverter, it just offsets what you pull from the grid. And btw, as long as you have the right voltage and grid-frequency, you can practically push as little as you want. The details and roadblocks usually come in the f

It's a solved problem because this is a feature of most hybrid inverters. The only reason it's not as easy as pie is because of lack of information, and "Scare" tactics promoted by electricity-generation companies.

This love and reverence to "privacy" is not at all a majority opinion or, at the very least, not at all held by everyone. That is where I think a lot of the HN cohort goes wrong, as a lot of us see no problem with violating privac

Because the media machine is spinning it all about the "teenagers", rather than doing actual investigative journalism and asking the right questions and assuming good-faith. So now instead of going to a DOGE rep and asking sane qu

That wikipedia "page" left me quite shocked. It reads more like CNN than an actual Wikipedia page.

You're very intelligently jumping through hoops to justify and defend the media and how the system as a whole operated here. On aggregate, this kind of "something" that happened, whether relying on readers filling in blanks,

Here in South Africa, the pharmacist is obligated to offer a generic to you, irrespective of which medicine it is. Some days I just go sure, other times I specifically want the non-generic because it is slightly (at least to me) better.

I've found conversation to be more spirited and lively, with everyone hopeful that sanity (albeit a weird one - Trump is weird) is finally prevailing over the state of things as they were. For those of us that were persecuted, bullied,

Playing by those rules, it's nearly impossible to change any big law or enact any drastic change to an existing law unless you have some world-changing event. The rest is just the slow march towards the mean which is controlled by the

Come now, it's obvious why they're not using "non-partisan career employees that have been vetted..." Please stop assuming we're not thinking critically or clearly if we disagree with you, you can't just shout
