Terminology is confusing. Lowercase-c conservatives want to keep the status quo as it is. But fact is that e.g. in the USA, legal access to abortion has been the status quo for 50 years.

So nobody can say that the status quo has been anything but that in the US. So uppercase-C “Conservative” just means “reactionary” now, because that’s what it is to roll back a 50 year old right.

Nuance? On my internet?

Not Linus. He has a lot of people he trusts

That reminds me of cool spot, the 7-up mascot game. It was so fucking hard!

If they’re really that stupid, more people will figure out that cracked games don’t have flaws like this.

That was my immediate reaction here: one of the reasons the xz backdoor was possible is that nobody is going to question the idea of shipping a tarball to spare users from having to touch Autotools.

Of course I wouldn’t think of manually hacking together Makefiles since I come from languages that have either the One True Build Tool or a standard for packaging and defining build backends.

I think the author’s aversion to build tools trying (and apparently failing) to make everyone’s life easier is more a statement about how much C/C++ have suffered from not having a standard for packages.

I have a pixel 6 and notice some lag in scrolling. Could it be that you don’t use srcsets but instead huge screenshots no matter the device screen?

From what I heard, Pathologic 2 is basically a 2019 remake of the original, so it should be prettier, less janky but still basically the same game, right?

Sure, until the next update, when they forcibly enable it again.

Love it! The puzzle design is extremely good, almost nothing feels finnicky or overly complicated. The story got me good and I enjoy thinking about the specific themes it goes into. I’m only sad that apparently I wasn’t sufficiently convincing for ma boi Yakut.
