My advice would be to take things gradually. This endeavor can be a bit overwhelming if you’re one to hyperfixate.

Bangs are awesome, and so are the Vim keybinds

Is Ubuntu is a requirement or am I misunderstanding?

This does not spark joy.

Vouching for Endeavour–I’ve been using it for the past few weeks and it’s been great. I have an AMD gpu though.

A gaming themed park would be pretty neat

After spending the day reading about NLP, this is an interesting article to pop up on my feed to say the least…

I am so tired of seeing this goon on my feed

The game will be my first thought when waking up, and my last thought before I sleep.

As of August 2023, Google Chrome accounted for 66.41 percent of the global desktop internet browser market share. I’d rather not contribute to Google’s influence over the internet. They already have too much power, and profit off of harvesting and selling our data.

Chiming in to say #Wayland is what resolved this issue for me. I had to switch from Linux Mint Cinnamon to #EndeavourOS + #GNOME and I’m much happier with my setup now.

#Wayland has been much better for my setup thus far

Recently switched to #EndeavourOS after using #LinuxMint for 9 months. Love it.

Greetings from kbin.social

I recall the second game getting a lot of negativity for…some reason I don’t fully remember.

Some of the popular complaints went into spoiler territory. Since I can’t seem to spoiler tag on kbin, I’ll only briefly mention that they generally centered around one of the main character’s choices early on, while also targeting their appearance for being “unrealistic”.

Outside of the story the gameplay is better, the tech is better, the environments are better. Even today it holds up as a powerhouse in these areas.

I agree overall. I also applaud Naughty Dog for the considerable number of gameplay options and accessibility features. If I remember correctly, someone has even beaten TLOU1/2 who was born blind.

I’m just trying to remember why a certain subset of people online were going all apey over it.

Not gonna get into it here, but the lesson learned by the protagonist felt like it missed the mark a bit when looking at the events of the game after things were said and done. Ultimately, I think it’s fairly minor considering that’s maybe my main gripe. I suppose I had some issues with pacing too, and thought some aspects of the plot should have been fleshed out differently. I was hoping to revisit TLOU1/2 eventually to see how my thoughts have changed.

Both have powerful stories, and I can respect a narrative that takes risks like TLOU has. I have some gripes with the second’s narrative, but I would still recommend it to many. I’ve also been thinking about it recently, so I’m pleasantly surprised to see it mentioned here.

China is one of the biggest culprits for blatant plagiarism and IP theft, although recently even academics from Ivy league universities have been implicated in fraudulent publications.

Sure, let’s make this about China when 4 out of 5 of the authors credited for the original article are from Africa.

While only one of which was from China. This doesn’t even address the fact that the republished paper came from Mawcha which describes a study on millipedes in… Africa. Guess what, Wenxiang Yang wasn’t even credited in this version. Was your reply carelessness or dishonesty and lack of integrity? I don’t care where the misinformation and carelessness comes from as long as we’re making efforts to stop it, but this is highly ironic.

You make a valid point, and there are certainly more considerations than my original reply would lead one to believe. Cheers.

Assuming this is carelessness, this just goes to show that working in academia isn’t an indicator of critical thinking skills IMO

I can’t remember the last time I’ve seen an ad on YouTube
