Germans are allowed to shove their fingers in their ears and go “lalalala I can’t hear you therefore it’s not genocide”. In fact, all of us are allowed to. It’s just that most of those who aren’t a cunt will choose not to. It seems Germans do not pass that particular filter.

Name one open-world game from the past 5 years whose map looks like this. Seriously. I’d like to play it.

Is it necessary to pay more, or is it enough to just pay for more time? If the product is good, it will be used.

Not sure. I can’t remember right now why I blocked dbzer0 completely, but my filters are blocking this instance. Which I guess is another side of the same coin: defederation (and allowing entire instances to be blocked) also contributes to fragmentation of communities. I had no idea the largest piracy community is on dbzer0, so I would subscribe to another piracy community on another instance, and thus split the memberships even more.

Jeezie. Like Swiftie, but for fan fiction on the Hebrew Bible.

Effective? No. Considering the purpose of all internet communities is to grow and have diversity, it’s not effective. Aside from the currently low number of users, the fact that you can have the same community in different instances means a community will never grow large enough. Add to that the “you’re literally killing children if you’re a centrist” people and all the tankies, and what you have here is a leftist circlejerk that will remain small and irelevant enough to suit its need to be an echo chamber without any actual diversity. So maybe it’s effective from that point of view? Idk.

Why are there only 39 hamster balls? Are some people sharing?

Maybe tankies are just this generation’s weaboos.

Things To Care About, vol 147, 2nd edition

Humor? Your idea of a joke is adding text to a photo. You’re not funny, your jokes stink, you have two left hands, nobody read your self-righteous rant.

Actual comedians are out there grinding on the daily, going to clubs and bombing, thinking about their act a million times a day, tryna work out timing and intonation and how best to fit the punchline in the sentence structure, how to reduce filler, all this weird shit that has never once crossed your mind because why would it, you’re not a comedian. And that’s a shit joke, because it’s not ingrained in you (or OP) how to make a good joke. Nobody’s getting offended here, it just wasn’t funny - or idk, maybe you’re projecting and you got offended when people weren’t laughing at a poorly made meme, so you responded with your own poorly made meme?

Let’s face it, this entire thread has not illicited even a smile, let alone laughs. Memes are great for scrolling, but let’s not confuse them with jokes.

Users are dumb and lazy

Funny, that has actually been my entire experience with corporate IT. This field attracts the type of firemen that won’t climb down the pole because it’s a safety hazard. Y’all are… something special.

Right. Call them youtubers! Wait…

Yes, like most normal people do.

There’s a lot of discussion when you’re a software dev about the best way to do things, and a lot more is spent on this debate than on actually writing code. One could wonder if there is so much discussion because there are so many good ideas that it’s difficult to choose the one that is optimal for the situation.

But then you read one of these posts on lemmy and you are reminded that someone with internet access and thumbs could spare the short time they have to take a shit to egregiously misunderstand a simple fucking slogan, smugly post about their shit take on the internet, and then return to their job where they will then spend hours misunderstanding the simplest of fucking concepts, slowing down everyone else along with them.

I mean, it just sounds like the people from your Tools/Infrastructure/IT/Devops/whatever-it’s-called-for-you department are fucking incompetent and can’t properly configure a Single Sign-On. Took mine a few years as well, I think the ticket was stuck in the queue behind the “restart some servers when nobody’s watching to see how long until they find the issue” tickets, which they seemed to be working on weekly.

Also, I can’t think of any reason why SSO can’t work with Mozilla or Chrome also, not just with Edge.

Oddly? This is not odd at all.

It’s been a while sincce I wrote code, but I’ll try to remember. Basically disk size and ram size have no connection. Disk size is for already generated assets (maybe you need to remember how the planes look like, so you create assets for all the planes. Or you want to have textures for the scenery, or for the Lincoln monument, or whatever).

But then you need to load those resources into RAM to access them faster, because if you try to load them directly from disk, it’s a lot slower. So some part of those 64GB of RAM is because you are loading some premade assets.

But aside from this, there’s also dynamically generated data that you have no way of knowing about at the beginning of the program, so you can’t prepare in advance and generate assets for it. Like say for example the player wants to begin flying the plane - he’s gonna have some different inputs than any other player. Maybe he drives slower at the beginning, or goes a little to the right when he takes off. Or his destination will be completely different. You now need to remember his velocity, his position on the map, the direction of his flight, his altitude, his plane’s weight and who knows what else, I’m not a pilot. All of this, you allocate memory dynamically, based on user changes, and this uses the RAM as well.

Not to mention - you can make a 1kb program that takes 64 GB of RAM. You just ask the operating system for that much memory. You don’t even need to fully use it. It’ll take you one line of code.

All this to say - nothing odd about the program being smaller than the RAM requirements. It can mean it’s not optimized, but it can also mean it has a lot of dynamic calculations that it’s doing and a lot of stuff it needs to remember (and in the case of a flight Sim this wouldn’t surprise me).

Think there’s any way to get Russia to attack Israel instead of Ukraine? We could allow either country to keep any land they earn from the conflict, no questions asked. Only stipulation being, only one country can remain.

And then the victorious party can eat the rest of the world’s nukes.

There is no harm in it being there, after all.

See, that’s where having the data would be great Because while this is intuitive, it’s not confirmed. I think most shows showing suicide also paint the event in a pretty bad light. What if having the disclaimer there makes someone not want to watch the show, and they continue to glorify suicide, whereas maybe if they watched the show and saw someone in pain after their loved one committed suicide, maybe it’d trigger something in them, to know how much this act would hurt others.

I’m not saying this is the case. I would just like to know the numbers, because unless they show a decrease in suicide attempts since the warning/phone number was introduced, then we’re really just speculating if it’s helping, hurting, or just neutral.

A communication platform? Really? You’re gonna tell me you find it difficult to communicate if you uninstall Facebook from your fucking PHONE? You know, from the actual communication platform?

Fuck outta here with these shitty door-to-door salesman tactics.

Imagine your local butcher recommending you buy meat from the butcher over in the other neighborhood, cause his is better.

Tards gonna tard.
