In any specific god? no. What I believe is that we don’t know and will never know anything beyond our own existence. We don’t know what we are, in the grand scheme of things (or if there’s a grand scheme at all). We don’t even know if we actually exist.
I just live my life to the best of my abilities and shrug off all that “beyond my existence” stuff as pointless. If I tried to think about it, I don’t believe I would ever come anywhere close to a real answer anyway.
Well there’s a million ways you can interpret that data. Apple usually makes very opinionated stuff (“this is how it works and this is how you’re going to use it”). Autistic folks tend to do have big issues with that sort of stuff, so it’s only natural they’ll gravitate to something else where they can use it whoever they feel is better.
And women in general have been pushed away from IT for a few decades due to how they’re treated in those groups, so it’s only natural they’ll be underrepresented among Linux users.
If you approach it with a standard videogame attitude (get the strongest weapons and most powerful skills, steal everything that is worth good money and so on), then it is a solid game.
If you approach it as a simulated tabletop rpg game, it is fantastic. You can experiment with all sorts of things. For example: in one fight I was outnumbered and cornered in a small room, with enemies coming from outside. I pulled some furniture in front of the door to block the passage, threw some oil on the ground in the other side and lit it with a torch, then hid my characters behind the walls out of any projectile’s path until I could fully heal them.
Unlike other games those weren’t things that the devs put there specifically for this fight. There was no button prompt suggesting the furniture could be moved or anything like that. They just put a bunch of stuff in the world that can be interacted with in many ways depending on what sort of skill you have and leave it up to you to find a way to use them, or not. You can still min-max your stats and ignore all that. You won’t even know you’re missing anything.
I realized I had overdone it when two weeks in they were going to send me a free hoodie shipped from a different continent.
At least I ran out of things to buy there.
I don’t know anything from the early century but there’s Superstore from 2015 which had a lot of stuff on that level.
First morning at the job he comes in wanting to impress, so he copies some company data to his personal laptop to do extra work at home. He got fired at noon. The official reason was that he had copied that stuff without authorization, but a more likely reason was that someone had accidentally written an extra zero on the offer they made him, because it was several times above average in the area.
And that’s why all those folks have mental issues. Having the skill is not enough, you need to pretty much dedicate your whole life to “the craft”
Who even still uses apple devices in 2023?
Eh, no need to bring the iOS/Android fight into this. OP saw an opportunity for a joke and took it. The butt of the joke is iOS because that’s what the sub is about. If it were for android the same joke could be made, though folks would probably make different ones with other more glaring issues that Google has.
I switched my laptop for a desktop a long time ago since I always work from home anyway, but yesterday I had to go the city my company’s office is in and thought: “I can work with the steam deck for one day”. It worked perfectly well.
Today someone asked me if I was really working on a PSP.
It’s looking pretty good actually. Even more if you consider how shitty the anime has been for half of its run.
If they deliver something on the same level as the trailer this would be the first case I would recommend a live action as a better manga adaptation than an anime.
Why is capitalism so anti-folks?
Opera has in the past been caught passing all of its users’ data through their servers, decrypting and re-encrypting it there all while telling the users that the data was encrypted end-to-end.
Is it ever not having one? Brave is one of the shittier browser companies out there.
Sadly that sort of thing got so common where I work that I’ll run the tests three times before considering looking into the error message to see if it is something I broke.
From time to time we take some days just to fix tests with inconsistent results, but there’s always more popping up.
As much as Google results have decreased in quality over the past years, it is still miles ahead of Bing. Bing rarely even understands the context of what I’m searching about.
Depends on the kind of search. If you’re wondering what was newton’s second law, you can just Google that. If you’re having an issue where your steam deck virtual keyboard is not showing up when you press its shortcut, the top 20 non-reddit Google results will all be random SEO articles about the basic features of steam deck.
The Bartimaeus series. Not for the story itself, but for the way it was structured. Sadly even its own writer doesn’t do that in any other book.
Aka “we really needed to change because of the copyright stuff but this reason sounds better”
Precisely because they are harmless and inconsequential. Complaining about things like this or pineapple on pizza are just meme complaints. Nobody cares that much about it in reality.
