So the argument is... "I dont like it", "It's dynamically typed" "Twitter crashed a decade and a half ago", "It's slow", and "It's only in top 20 on the yearly stackoverflow survey"

Former Roblox player that quit back in 2016, there used to be a free currency called Tickets which were a free currency you could get through various means, it was a lot more restrictive on what you could get, but it really boosted my enjoyment of the game. The moment they got rid of tix I quit, because I refused to spend any of my meager allowance on Roblox (also generally being bored of the game after years of playing.) Modern Roblox is really impressive, and really depressing. The things people make are incredibly cool, and they are rewarded incredibly poorly for it.

That's definitely an 8BitDo controller, although not of a make currently available. Analogue has previously used 8BitDo controllers, and it features the star and pixel-heart most of not all current 8BitDo controllers use. Hopefully 8BitDo will release a version that works with PC!

Its not like brainpower is a finite resource, the more you work your brain the better it works anyways. You cant expect "obsessive tinkerer types who've historically driven scientific and engineering progress" to work 24/7 on their work.

It is very similar to the old newgrounds series :the game:, made by Nutcasenightmare. Because Nicky Case is Nutcasenightmare

it scales with vehicle volume, the larger the truck, the less strict the regulations become

Human readable formats should exist for more or less one purpose, interfacing with a human, eg configuration.

Note they did not say "Google is now an ad company", it was "now we consider Google an ad company first", it is a matter of perception.

Very interesting! I did some searching but it seems they never had a system for having it act as a bridge between two cybiko nets? I would expect that to be a reasonable thing to do what with the mesh network.

I more meant making a fake cybiko that would allow you to communicate with someone in another city with another repeater, connected over the internet.

I wonder if it would be possible to make a repeater for the signal, perhaps over the internet

I believe they meant productive as in they have produced more work than expected.

This is not actually a pre-order, or atleast not as implied by the word pre-order, rather they are simply sold out. Source: currently typing on one :)

This gives me an idea of an attack vector. These groans and moans seem rather quiet, and the airline claims its an amplifier issue. Assuming that the amplifier is not shielded from the cabin and that its analog tech, one could theoretically induce intentional interference to play whatever you want, right?

plan9's ACME is interesting how its mostly traditional except for both the mouse-chords and the part that its also a shell. also a window manager. and a file manager.

at one point there was plans to add graphics capabilities to truly turn it into a window manager but well, those never came to be.

sounds like a weird portmanteau of unix and vaxen, a term I have heard used for the old dec vax machines, which did indeed run unix. so, not entirely gibberish, just mostly gibberish.
