It’s supposed to be in the game but in the main menu instead of the pause menu. They’ve had main menu popups for dlc for years, not sure if I’ve seen ads for other games before.

Yeah, not sure why it feels the need to mimic the appearance of social media when replaying an old joke. Does it make it appear more spontaneous?

Couple of spoilers in that article, admittedly the game has been around for a while but thought I’d mention it in case you’re trying to avoid them.

It’s all human readable abstractions for 0s and 1s, isn’t it? Unless you’re working with quantum computers.

We want to draw the line somewhere, so my mum on FB doesn’t call herself a programmer for creating a post, but it’s not very clear where to put that line. I think it has to depend on the context, you could tell your hairdresser you’re a programmer to avoid the unnecessary details, but wouldn’t describe it as such in a job interview.

I’d like to assume the compliance plan involves that - or at least moving it to a safer orbit - but it’s probably more likely the plan is just saying “we won’t do it again”.

You got me. I’ll try harder.

Yeah they’re trying to sell us the idea that things are magical and wonderful instead of the most squeezed we’ve ever been.

I lost pretty quickly on my first attempt, but I’m feeling confident about my second run! I’d let you know how it gets on, but…

I’ll believe it when they execute one

If they’re stealing it from people, I think I’d do something. But corporations aren’t people.

Interesting, I was taught you used a rolling boil for pasta so it wouldn’t stick together. Maybe there’s a halfway where it rolls for a few minutes then gets turned down as the pieces soften and become vulnerable to tearing.

The closest I found to a non social media site is the patreon https://www.patreon.com/eastcoastitnotes Not much for free though

Disagree, I played some last month. Different boys I guess but it felt the same.

I don’t love that it calls them guys. Or that all women are at least a bit crazy. I don’t love that at all.

We have a slightly later leaf with ~30k but now it’s getting older the range is only about 80mi in warm weather (much worse in cold). It’s not really viable for distances, but we could hire an ICE for those rare occasions.

Why is it neutral evil to have a monitor without a face?

“No, stupid questions!”

It could be used for improving products, but really it’ll be DRM for plants. That’s what could make money so that’s why money was spent.

It’s called a bindle - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bindle?wprov=sfla1

That page certainly implies it was used in the real world, but it’s far more common in media and there aren’t any citations to support it’s use.

Well they weren’t going to admit it…
