Gaming on Linux has won if other stores like Epic and Gog now feel a need to natively support it.

“Why” sounds like “Y”, and “Y” is only sometimes a vowel.

Not a chance. Loads of people in the province, including the opposition, municipalities, etc. were saying he shouldn’t call one. If he was feeling any pressure to call an early election (he wasn’t) he had plenty of ways to resist it. This election is 100% on him.

My players are the opposite. They seem to probe for the “right” railroad choice and I wish they’d throw me a curveball every so often! I’ll improvise if they let me!

At least you have a reservation! I got put somewhere in the waitlist, so if you’re looking at 2027 then who knows when / if I’ll ever get one.

I finished my graduate degree right at the end of 2019 and spent 2020 unemployed. It really sucks.

It probably helps that Minecraft prints money; no one wants to be the one that breaks the infinite money machine. I bet though if Minecraft sales slowed then you’d start to see more interference.

My cousin and I both got the waitlist.

The article doesn’t say if the women were laid off because of maternity leave, only that they were laid off around that time. We don’t know if anything illegal happened - for all we know one of the employers may have closed an entire branch office or something.

Nah Nvidia’s all for local models - people need GPUs to run them! OpenAI is trying to develop their own chips, so it isn’t in Nvidia’s interest for OpenAI to win. Probably ditto for Anthropic. Nvidia wins in a world where there is no AI provider big enough they can invest enough to bypass Nvidia. This is probably why Nvidia has been releasing their own open models, training sets, etc.

Also because browsers support OfflineAudioContext, which lets you do the same things but doesn’t try to output to speakers.

Politically, Carney needs to signal to voters that Trump is the reason we can’t get a good deal, not the Liberals. You and I already know that, but my conservative voting parents don’t. If Carney had walked away day 1, many voters would be thinking that maybe the Conservatives could get us a good deal.

I think there was other value too - I think if we had walked away months ago, tariffs like this would have been imposed even sooner. Delaying tariffs like this is providing real value for Canadian exporters at the relatively cheap cost of some politicians’ time.

Afaik US Social Security running out of money is kind of an illusion as all the money is “invested” with the US government anyway, which is to say that the money is already coming out of the same pot of as all their other spending. It’s not as if once that account hits $0 that to maintain benefits they’d have to ramp up their spending - rather once it hits $0 they’ll be cutting spending, and to maintain benefits would require them to spend what were before it hit $0.

It’s kind of akin to their “debt limit” - it’s just an artificially constructed barrier to their spending they impose on themseves but can tweak whenever they want. This isn’t to say that real barriers won’t appear - for instance maybe the bond market is expecting them to cut spending once it hits $0 and will react poorly if they don’t.

Run ‘bash’ and then follow the guide, assuming it’s too complex to tweak for fish.

My weird proposal is that I think the western provinces should be permament daylight savings, while the eastern provinces should be permentantly standard time. The impact would be to narrow the time difference between east and west by 1 hour, which should allow for more options in the job market.

For instance, a company based in Toronto may not be willing to start an office in Vancouver if there’s only 5 hours of overlap per work day, but may be if there’s 6 hours of overlap. Ditto for remote workers.

On the topic of indie films, can people in-the-known share some suggestions for what’s worth watching?

This is unfortunately only true when a landlord fixes things beyond the absolute bare minimum (massive globs of caulk on caulk everywhere is my experience).

It’s “200” (200th episode). S10E06. Basically the characters are imagining different TV shows that could be based on their experiences. The puppets are only a short part of that episode.

Switching to something rolling release makes sense. My Arch setup (btw) has always felt much more stable than when I was using Ubuntu, because with Ubuntu I’d inevitatebly run into a bug, find out it was fixed months ago but won’t be backported, and then either live with it or try custom-installing the newer version of that thing. Or I’d install something manually that expected dependency X be the latest version, etc.

My friend is an indie game developer and he once told me the typical refund rate, which I think was only a little lower than this. I don’t think the game length is playing that large a role here, rather people use that refund policy as a way to try out a game (like a demo). Probably most of the people who refunded wouldn’t have bought it in the first place without that refund policy, so he shouldn’t really view this as “because of this policy I lost 55K sales”.
