Destiny has very broad appeal, has printed money before, and certainly could be popular again if they just stopped making all the worst decisions.

Marathon has a very very particular niche it’s targeting and I think it does that well, but I don’t it’s going to grow at all without some changes to its fundamental ideas.

I have a bare private git repo on my homeland server. Not great for sharing my work but great for personal projects.

LLMs tend to be a “jack of all trades, master of none”. You are likely to find them useful for helping you with something you are inexperienced at, but not at something you are an expert in. However, because they lie a lot, it’s best to double-check your information, but the LLM can still be helpful with the ”you don’t know what you don’t know” issue.

Two weeks is about how long I took when I made that trip, but I did some sightseeing on the way. Also even on the longest day I don’t think I drove for 10 hours in one day.

Don’t you use a 21 sided die?

Somebody do this to Minecraft and let Microsoft sue against AI

More specifically I thought one of the approaches to an omni-treadmill would catch on enough for an at-home model to be available to the public.

I’ve been in three different apartments in my current city and I’ve needed black out curtains to sleep in all of them.

Minecraft copyright doesn’t cover the entire genre of block-based sandbox pixel art games. Minecraft isn’t even the first in that genre, even if it’s the most popular by a wide margin.

Unless Microsoft can prove that one of the textures started by copying a Minecraft texture, or that substantial bits of code are copied from Minecraft, there is no claim.

My anecdotal 2 cents:

I was in boyscouts and I think it was a space to develop positive masculinity, and to learn things by looking up to older boys who had been through the same experience. I think girls being present would have changed the dynamic, because teenage boys act differently and talk about different things when around teenage girls.

Now that being said I’m certain not everyone in boyscouts developed positive masculinity. Boyscouts is far, far less uniform than people seem to think. There were 2 troops in my home town that were wildly different.

But at least from my anecdotal experience, Boyscouts was a good thing that benefitted from being a boys-only experience, and I wonder how it has changed now that girls can join boyscout troops.

It’s “let’s a go!”

Looks like first layer adhesion issues, but given the print finished with no other issues, I’d call this a success. You might try adding a raft or brim next time to isolate the first layer issues from the print itself.

I’m probably going to give this a try, but I think you should make it clearer for those who aren’t going to dig through the code that it’s still LLMs all the way down and can still have issues - it’s just there are LLMs double-checking other LLMs work to try to find those issues. There are still no guarantees since it’s still all LLMs.

Yeah you should definitely get that shot if nothing else.

The danger isn’t blood loss, it’s nasty bacteria getting deep in there. If you haven’t gotten a tetanus vaccine recently you really should go get that.

Other than that it’s probably fine but definitely keep an eye on it. I got a minor dog bite a few years ago and it was fine just treating it with neosporin and keeping it covered with a bandage.

Steam does have warning labels for games with DRM, or at least popular shitty DRM options such as 3rd party launchers.

Example:

Yeah the extensions are important. I have my top bar completely hidden until I open quick search. I like the aesthetic of a completely clear screen with just my desktop background and my windows (I also generally configure macOS this way as well).

I’m a long term Mac user and have been periodically playing with Linux because I want to fully switch eventually. (full disclosure I currently still have a MacBook I use as well as a Linux desktop)

I’ve tried Ubuntu, Debian, Elementary, and probably a few others I’ve forgotten, but the first one I’ve really felt is a viable daily driver OS is Bazzite. This is because it largely just works out of the box, such that you only need to install and tweak extra things if you really want to.

I strongly recommend Bazzite, and I personally prefer the Gnome variant.

Bazzite gives you:

• easy way to update everything in one place
• “App Store” like application to find most apps you’ll need
• all the basic drivers and utilities you’ll need out of the box
• a “Files” application that feels like Finder
• a “Document Viewer” application that feels like Preview (although it’s not as powerful)
• a quick search feature that’s a lot like Apple’s Spotlight, and honestly is way more reliable than Spotlight in more recent macOS releases
• multitouch trackpad gesture support out of the box
• a Settings app that is pretty straightforward to navigate and controls most of the things you would care about
• There are other settings apps for finer tweaking. I know that sounds confusing, but Linux people wouldn’t complain if it wasn’t possible to change every detail somehow. Bazzite does a good job of making the important stuff accessible in the main settings app IMO, so you generally don’t have to worry about the deeper options.

Here’s a guide to get you started:

1. Go here: https://bazzite.gg/
2. Fill out the dropdowns (Q: What hardware are you using? A: Desktop, Q: Who is the vendor of your primary GPU? A: this depends, it’s important to get it right, ask for help if you are unsure, Q: What desktop environment do you prefer? A: I recommend gnome, but KDE is great too, Q: Do you want Steam Gaming Mode? A: No, I want a traditional desktop experience)
3. Click the “download Bazzite …” button
4. Make a USB stick into a bootable Bazzite installer (I recommend using https://etcher.balena.io/)
5. Boot your computer from the USB stick. How to do this depends on the motherboard, but generally means holding down a key while booting (on a Mac it’s Option, on other computers it’s often something like Del or F2 or F12 or something) This will bring you to a menu that you navigate with keyboard arrows until you find the option to boot from the USB
6. Follow the steps from the installer. It’s pretty user friendly.

Note that this will delete all data in the USB you use and the drive you install Bazzite on

Once you have installed Bazzite, here are a few programs I’d recommend (these can be found in the “Bazaar”, which is an “App Store” like way to get programs.

• VLC (like QuickTime in macOS, but honestly VLC is way more powerful)
• LibreOffice (there are a couple FOSS Office suite options, this is the one I personally recommend)
• KdenLive (video editing - like iMovie or Final Cut)
• GIMP (like Adobe Photoshop)
• Disk Usage Analyzer (like DaisyDisk on Mac), if you’ve ever used that
• Mailspring (I haven’t found an email app that is quite as nice as Apple’s but Mailspring is the one I’m currently using)

If you have any other questions let me know! I’m happy to help.

It’s not easy to switch, but it can be made easier if you keep all your important files in one place.

screen recording and/or streaming (preferably lighter weight)

VLC can do this. The streaming part might be tricky because it won’t do the networking for you, but it’s easy enough to screen record to a file.
