My rare Fediverse chicks!

This was me, to an extent. At least with regards to gaming.

Gee, I wonder if Aryansoldier1488 knows if 1488 is a dog whistle for Nazis? I’d hate for Aryansoldier to get caught up in this. It was probably a random number.

This could be a good meme template.

The riddler is smart and seems like the type to enjoy word play. He wouldn’t suspect “Brucein’” to be a, well, whatever you call a verbal typo. Like a speech impediment but when you randomly say something wrong. Especially from someone like Batman.

For me it was seeing people say that the character mechanics of Total War: Three Kingdoms were like a watered down version of CK. I hadn’t heard of it before. CK2 was the latest at the time and the UI in it is awful. Luckily CK3 came out soon.

CK3 is really cool. It’s completely spoiled me on games like Civilization now. Being able to play as a person instead of some abstract concept of your empire is so fascinating to me. Things like worrying about how your child’s holdings will look once you die based on succession is fun.

I don’t see any new posts since 7 months ago. (Unless my instance stopped federating.)

You can’t say something like that without elaborating! How did it change you?

I think Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom was amazing. The only gripe I have is that the Switch just can’t handle it very well.

It’s hard to answer this because if you’d asked me 5 years ago my answer would be different (not just because TotK hadn’t released) because my tastes change.

I used to copy code into nano over ssh. Then I randomly tried pasting the server address in my file browser and it connected over SFTP. This was ages ago. I was using Crunchbang Linux, maybe around 2011 or so.

The irony being that scene had a GUI and ed is, well…

?

What a goofy thing to ask. You know exactly why people use smart TVs on the Internet.

They give Nazis a platform. I don’t watch it because of that. Plus I try to avoid rage bait content as much as I can.

It’s spam. They don’t care what you say.

Is that “real” uncompressed or using a lossless compression? Or are uncompressed video streams inherently losslessly compressed because they only show changes, not sending a full image every frame?

Parents cannot prevent evil and are not all powerful.

I don’t know about desktop/laptop stuff but I can do it on my Pixel phone (Android, I know).

One of my old coworkers from a place I no longer work would come to me for every exception his code threw. Being generous, I understand his intentions, he was curious if they were known problems or things to avoid. That said, every time I asked him what line of code it happened on or if he’d searched online about it the answer was no. I was probably ~25 at the time and had a bachelor’s degree. He was definitely at least 50 and had a PhD.

Stable Diffusion has the option to include an invisible watermark. I saw this in the settings when I was running it locally. It does something like adds a pattern that is easy to detect with machines but impossible to see. The idea was that you could check an image for it before putting it into training sets. Because I never needed to lie about things I generated I left it on.
