Arguably, the fix should be to “it” since anon is a utility account, not a user.

In Deep Space 9, Jake Sisko (the station commander’s son) is a journalist for the Federation News Service. There’s a good episode where he ends up in a war zone and the story covers cowardice and PTSD.

I’ve enjoyed what I’ve done with it so far, which is mostly little wasm projects. Once they finally get a proper editor I think it’ll really pick up adopters.

The fact that it’s Nintendo’s IP seems the key thing here.

So did Nintendo get Valve to do this, or is Valve just covering its back from the notoriously-litigious Nintendo?

Ah, ok, that makes more sense. That also solves any ordering problem if you, say, you’re running local and elsewhere commands and a sync means pressing up gives you an unexpected item.

Sync seems like it’s going to be more pain than its worth unless you have all your machines configured the same. I’m not even running the same distros between machines…

I’ve just installed this from your recommendation and it’s brilliant. I love the amateur graphics, it just adds to the charm.

Agreed - it’s 25 minutes without filler or repetition. Good stuff.

Bad link 👎

This article seems to be an incomplete pasting of an old article: What Did Ada Lovelace’s Program Actually Do? I was suspicious when it said “A contemporary interpretation of Ada’s punch card stack using JavaScript might resemble the following” but didn’t have any code.

The real tl;dr is it calculated terms of the Bernoulli series.

Tris, who’s behind the excellent No Boilerplate YouTube channel offers mentoring. I don’t know if he has spaces or if he’s in your budget, but he’s got experience explaining things and clearly knows his stuff.

I thought that was catchier than “Private Browsing/Incognito/InPrivate/gift shopping mode”.

False dichotomy (or is your logical fallacy the slippery slope? Anyway…) Someone saying that what’s happening to Palestinians is wrong does not mean they’re saying they want all Israelis killed.

It’s not paywalled here, try using porn mode, clearing that site’s cookies or something like archive.today.

I was going to suggest War for the Overworld but at eight years old perhaps that doesn’t qualify.

This is a neat little idea, although I’m surprised you found the motivation to finish what seems like a niche need. Was this something that you wanted for yourself?

My understanding wasn’t that they weren’t gambling, just that they claimed they weren’t (gambling is illegal in China). The Chinese have a reputation for loving gambling, despite its illegality.

Chinese officials have been censured in the past for receiving bribes through the playing of card games

How would this happen if they weren’t gambling?

First games in ages for me! Three of us, we started with Kingsburg, stopped for curry and rugby, then continued with Suburbia.

I love the stories that end up happening in Suburbia - my town was an industrial hellhole that no-one wanted to live in, until I built a recycling plant which I then doubled and everyone loved me.

My neighbour’s capitalist mecca was similarly unpopular but his approach was to spend a fortune buying a PR firm, but he left it too late and his reputation never got high enough to escape last place.

I’d rather see the second option - having a JavaScript-free solution is definitely more resilient than trying to detect and whitelist every archive service. As long as it works for wget/curl then it works for almost everyone.

No, it’s just that @warboyziri@kbin.social didn’t give the full link. It’s happy and healthy at https://letterboxd.com

TL;DR: the code/servers could be changed to use SSR, but that’s more expensive to run.

Lemmy is written more as a web app than as a traditional webpage. This means that the website sends a partial page plus the code+resources needed to finish building the page and the browser builds (“renders”) the final page.

This has advantages in that the server can send less data over time, cache more of that data, and overall has to do less work, plus also makes the site feel more snappy for the user, because their browser only needs to download the data that’s changed (instead of a whole new page).

The disadvantage is that the browser needs to be more powerful, and older/simpler browsers (like IE6, some text-only browsers and some web spiders) won’t apply the extra work to finish the page off.

The normal solution is called “server-side rendering” (SSR) where the server renders the full page, sends that over, then also sends over the code+data needed to run things more dynamically (“hydrating” the static site into an app-like experience). This means the server has to do a lot of work, but is often the best of both worlds; search engines see the proper page (good for SEO) but users get to have a nice experience (once that longer initial load is complete, anyway).
