A mod is a small, well defined feature made against a very well documented API, modders don’t face normal commercial pressures, and mods don’t need to work for all kinds of edge cases.
Plus, there are a fuckton of them, so you never hear or care about the flops.
The main challenge in making a mod is often “how TF do I even get started”?
Weren’t the crusades also just a Papal project to reduce the intensity of European wars by dumping excess military capacity into colonising the Middle East?


Go to the Netherlands. Video Game Museum has a pair, and you can play for as long as you want for the entry ticket, no coins needed.
Okay, but also remove more I guess.
The overall LoC might still be up, but not at this ratio
We have a story in Hungary from medieval times about a guy who was let off because he had so thick hair, the headsman’s axe didn’t take over three tries.
That’s the joke.jpg
Mimir is just the DB, no metric scrapers, but it’s distributed and capable of high volume ingestion, retention and querying. Can’t scrape metrics though.
Alloy has no storage persistence, so it’s just the scraper part, but is massively scalable, its basically a Prometheus Agent on steroids. Can do logs, traces, Pyroscope profiles too.
So instead of deploying one server to scrape and store metrics, you deploy one to store and one to scrape.
Mimir and Alloy are two specialised forks of Prometheus
People get one helpful politician, just one…


No, we’ll just consume more.
We’re doing a lot of bullshit. Research shows we could maintain our effective lifestyle while cutting consumption by up to 60%


Okay but the world had enough money to bankroll Spotify for 20 years. It doesn’t have the kind of money OpenAI needs.
IiRC it was more so that the Church got actual fiefdoms and wanted control so that potential priestly families wouldn’t just distance themselves into secular noble houses, taking lands with them.
Fiefdoms and related duties originated from kings, so the church wanted similar parallel rights over their vassal priests.
That’s not a sedan though, that’s an SUV. The S60 is a sedan
In my experience it’s often the HR department itself that gets up to this shit
Flevoland was a national scale pseudo conscript construction project on the scale of the Great Wall. Bit more useful though.
The Dutch in the 70s oil crisis told all their freshly unemployed people to grab a shovel or they don’t get unemployment, and now their country is a tenth bigger.
You can’t bail them out, they will still be losing money. It’s not like banks.
The play now seems to be that they will offload the bags on retirement funds and US 401k accounts. The ECB already issued a warning because of this.
That’s the least communist thing I’ve ever heard


It will try to find any unsecured WiFi
Okay, but then that argument could also be used to say that it’s fine to just AI generate all the art as long as you write all the code.
You could say “just buy assets” but that’s the same as saying “just pay a programmer”
