Printing seems safest. I wouldn't want to gamble on a pi not corrupting the boot SD card or something of the like.

Long since dead but I put a lot of time into a browser-based (2D) MMO called Nowhere Else and Beyond back in the day.

You could build islands and they'd be placed somewhere in the world for people to sail to, you could create quests set on your island etc. There was even an object inventor for creating equipment.

He's not a well-poisoner, someone just decided to chug from a bottle clearly marked "do not drink".

If someone spends the time to integrate mystery code without taking the time to check the license allows it then frankly they dug that hole themselves.

Because it's great for analytics. The formula of "face in thumbnail, big text, bold colours" works and YouTube WANT you to be clickbaited so that you watch the ads.

RSS is essentially dead, sadly. Can't push ads or gather analytics through it so it's been "optimised out" of the web.

Even those rare sites that DO support RSS quite often only show the first paragraph or even just the title of the page, which I suppose is an acceptable compromise.

I'm not sure when "hacker" became a synonym for "ruthless capitalist" but it's sad to see, honestly.

Somewhat related: I did a similar thing with a periodic table: https://josh-perry.github.io/periodic-table-of-projects/

They crippled their Geforce cards in terms of mining while simultaneously launching different, more expensive, dedicated mining cards[0].

You can. Twitter has a fairly robust word muting system in your account settings.

Why would you? I see it as more like a news site with a comments section.

I don't consider those to be social media either.

Not knowing anything about this, I thought this would be about C# :)

He's also playing Broken Reality, a silly game parodying the internet. It's pretty good.

I remember making little Exile "fangames" in Clickteam's The Games Factory as a kid using those assets.

...and boats? How are international flights going to work on a bus?

It's not an intentional one though, it's just what the tools happen to run on. Sony aren't going to come after you if you run their SDK in a VM or something.

Apple intentionally restrict developers to only use Apple hardware and software to keep the ecosystem contained.

But it's not true.

There's absolutely no restriction on game development machines except that the provided tools (probably) only run on Windows.

Please note, python is not available out of the box on Windows machines as in macOS, most of Linux distros.

It (almost, kind of) is now, actually. Running python on a recent Windows 10 box without python installed will prompt you to install it.

This is slightly absurd. It's reporting a very minor bug, not offering to implement a whole feature.

Are you saying that no-one should report anything because it encourages them to let bugs slide into production?

The museum had previously enlisted the help of experts to crack the code, tried default combinations, and had contacted former hotel employees to see if they could help.

It doesn't sound like it was the default, just a "password1" situation.

This is such an "old man yells at cloud" attitude.

The alternative is, what? Striking up conversation with fellow passengers who definitely don't want to talk to me? Staring mindlessly out the window? Consuming useless content via newspaper instead?

I just don't understand this position.

Huh? How is this a solution?

If your password gets leaked I can just: recognise that it's base64, decode it, see your salt and then all of your other passwords are essentially open to me?

Edit: Oh, is the salt different for each site? I don't get why you'd ever do this instead of generating an entirely new password though, you aren't solving the storage problem.

Does it? That's the standard "cheap" SaaS price ime.

Have you tried scrolling up to look at conversation history? It spends an age loading the messages, even those from just a few minutes ago.

Scroll snapping only seems to work on webkit.

It doesn't work for me on Firefox desktop either, but Firefox Focus uses webkit by default afaik.

This spooks me a little. Common sense says you should never, ever run "curl something | sh" (or equivilant), especially not with elevated privileges.

Z-Machines aren't compilers, they're virtual machines that can execute the compiled output.

There's no (known) compiler that still exists that can compile ZIL into Z-code.

edit: except for zilf, as mentioned, but it's not functional for even zork 1.

Komodo dragons are at risk of extinction, chickens are not.

I don't understand the problem at all.

You say that the quality of their work is good so why does it matter if you learn things in differently?

Yes, but it's a lot less painful to git rebase and skip that one commit (assuming there's nothing else in that commit you might need) or git-filter-branch like he said.

All of these require you to fix everyone's local copy though.
