Cards on the table: he looked like a low-rent Replay Mode – who makes fine-enough, seemingly hand-scripted video essays with mildly clickbaity/superlative titles about CoD multiplayer. They’re junk food for your brain, but they’re harmless.

Your interpretation is wrong in a subtle way: this is 50 GB free of a “VPN” (seems more like a proxy) on Mozilla’s Fastly’s infra, whereas Mozilla VPN uses Mullvad’s infra (and is a real VPN).

You got lucky. An Hbomb false alarm is a war crime in 143 countries.

I guess the US takes it seriously when dairy farms use rBST.

Shitposting aside, here’s the NYT investigation this Mediaite article is based off.

No, wait, he really is. The first 80 minutes of his next video, about Adobe, has been available on his Patreon since November 13, 2025.

In another life, I think this kid would be in a disused storage room holding a $30 microphone, staring into his Galaxy A56’s camera, and reading a low-quality, half-generated YouTube video essay script about why Call of Duty peaked with Black Ops.

Change da world

My final message

Gamers who use fsync are not going to see such a leap in performance in most games.

I don’t think that’s overlooked at all. 99.9% of people using WINE/Proton aren’t going to have any idea what fsync is, and almost nobody not using proton-cachyos is going to use it. fsync, itself a workaround, is niche within what’s already a niche.

Well no shit he never came back. He couldn’t find his way home because he couldn’t see because you weren’t pointing the flashlight in the right spot!

Yeah, OP, watch your disgusting fucking mouth.

Same! Right now I’m playing Arzette: The Jewel of Faramore. It’s only $5 right now on GOG (Windows-only, but works great on Linux; even vanilla WINE hasn’t shown any problems).

It’s a love letter to the Zelda CDi games that even gets the original actors for Zelda (intro) and Link (tutorial) as cameos. They got an artist from the original games to work on it, and the artstyle, music, gameplay, etc. are all an homage to the original games. The game’s lead creator had previously unofficially remastered the CDi games and (based on what I’ve played so far) clearly adores them for the absolute mess they are.

I wasn’t sure about it when I got it, but it’s so worthwhile if you get any joy out of the CDi games’ ridiculousness but never wanted to endure their abysmal gameplay. Solid 7.5/10 – where 5/10, not 7/10, is average.

Side point: pirate corporate shit without guilt, but also be adventurous and find alternatives at the same time. Pirating corporate media isn’t directly giving them money but reinforces their hegemony.

Elevating indie media – whatever you find that speaks to you – is a real way to fight back.

Honestly beats me.

Depends heavily on the editor you’re using. Editor-agnostic, however, is that under the hood, everything uses “tags”, which are effectively key–value pairs that the broader editing community has agreed mean something.

In most editors, you’ll draw the area in a sort of free-form connect-the-dots, and you’ll have a created a blank area once you close the loop (under the hood, this is defined by the placeholder area=yes tag, but seriously don’t worry about directly changing tags unless you’re experienced; just let the editor give you a list of items to choose from).

Next, select the area, and your editor should present you with some way to search for what you want. Once you click that, the editor will apply the corresponding tags under the hood and will likely give you a list of properties you can change (for example, if you create a fast food restaurant, it might let you decide if it has a drive thru or not).

I’ll be able to give something a lot more specific once I know the editor, since UIs vary heavily. (Note which I didn’t know at first myself: if you went to OpenStreetMap’s website, made an account, and clicked “Edit”, then you’re using the iD editor.)

Regardless of whether OP would’ve, archive.today (etc.) was taken down by the Russian government. Moreover, Reuters wasn’t working on the site anyway the last several months; archiving Reuters would just loop until it failed.

No? He’s just in the location where he’s doing commentary now, and he or his editors added a red rectangle (the color of his old shirt he always wore) but cut it off before it intersects his torso. Then they added text with a dropshadow reading “It’s been a while.”

Engineering students worldwide:

“Free Switch 2 when you bring your switch.”

I use OsmAnd which I think is also really good. I’ve heard nothing but good things about CoMaps too, like you said, which is a (seemingly well-justified) fork of Organic Maps.

If anyone’s curious about contributing to OpenStreetMap too to make the maps in your area better, I know a bit, and I’d be happy to answer questions, even if they’re just random curiosities. It’s a lot of fun.
