flamingo_pinyata,

Bought - it’s been 15 years at least.
Got one for free and used it actively - last month. Tourist organizations in many cities still give away simple paper maps of city center with major sights (and some advertising).

Why Assassin's Creed has lost its identity?

Remember those iconic games before 2014? The OG, while dated was really unique for its time, the Ezio Auditore Trilogy that became the standard for the franchise, 3, that was very ambitious (probably too much) with it’s setting and story telling. Even 4, although it was the first time AC escaped from the base of what an...

flamingo_pinyata,

There’s only so much content you can milk out of a single franchise. After a while it becomes tired and repetitive, or strays in bad direction. Very few franchises continue for so long for a reason.

Unless Ubisoft is trying to create Coronation Street equivalent of video games.

You can do it!
Embrace your inner potato. Feel the potato flow through you. You are one with the potato.

flamingo_pinyata,

If you write apps integrating with MS Teams you still sometimes get exceptions mentioning Skype. I’m pretty sure they reused a decent part of the code

flamingo_pinyata,

Pornstars are legitimate entertainers that bring at least something positive to the society. Unlike Donald Trump.

Does Trump being found guilty actually matter?

Since he can still run for office and become president while in prison, is this actually going to do anything to stop him from being president? Obviously it’s not gonna sway anyone who’s gonna vote for him, so is there any actual way this keeps him from office, or at least has some positive effect for us? I wanna join the...

flamingo_pinyata,

If he goes to prison and then gets elected president, how does it work? Will he be pronounced incapable of performing the office, do the job from prison, or get released?

Dating.
I don’t see the point to it, faking that you like someone so your friends and family approve.

If you owned a magic library people donated to in order to preserve media for eternity but which was going through overpopulation, what criteria would you use to decide which media survived/discarded?

I was reading a recent article about the efforts by people not to ban books. While I think the sentiment is good-natured, as a helper at my local library, this is actually very problematic. People donate to us all the time, as is how libraries work. Sometimes the books are unpopular, unproductive, harmful, or just low tier....

  1. Drop accounting and commercial transaction documents. Invoices, receipts, shipping declarations, etc… Sure it could be interesting to future archeologists but it makes the huge majority of all documents generated by humanity. We still have millions of untranslated accounting docs from ancient Mesopotàmia. It not really that useful.
  2. Content published in less than 1000 copies, or read/watched less than 1000 times if online. Fanfiction, self published books and so on. Again it’s a loss for a couple of niche future historians. You drop a significant % of storage, but even minor works representing our society remain.
flamingo_pinyata,

Thanks, finally we can easily avoid “woke free” companies

flamingo_pinyata,

You know what happens when an entire nation is exposed to luxurious lifestyles of an extremely wealthy minority?

Revolution. Revolution happens.

Chinese politicians know this fact too well, that’s why they’re trying to make rich people hide their wealth.
I mean actually fixing the problem is out of the question, that would be communism.

flamingo_pinyata,

I really don’t get the Nazi belief system.

  1. Some races are superior to others and naturally must rule
  2. Despite all persecutions, Jews are immensely powerful and secretly control the world

According to their own philosophy they should be willingly serving the superior race - Jews

The only guy who will get out of the whole mess alive. Slipping out of the public attention is a skill

flamingo_pinyata,

Good luck connecting to each of the 36 pods and grepping the file over and over again

flamingo_pinyata,

If there’s a developer deserving of sainthood it’s Terry Davies of TempleOS fame. But I’m not sure if he counts as Catholic.

flamingo_pinyata,

DDG and Ecosia both use Bing as a provider for some of their results.
Something is currently broken on the side of Bing, and none of the search engines that use it as a source is able to get any results.

flamingo_pinyata,

According to this, it started as a full outage, but by now Bing itself is mostly fixed only leaving the the API down. theverge.com/…/microsoft-bing-search-outage-copil…

Algorithms working as intended - you are more likely to sell drugs to people already addicted.

Do they also offer pineapple rental? Not everyone can afford to own one.

It wouldn’t be the first time

flamingo_pinyata,

Still no definitive news. Iranians have misplaced their president.

flamingo_pinyata,

She’s so close to getting it, that gender is as much of a bullshit category as race is.
Frustrating to see someone understanding partially but not making the final leap to connect it.

flamingo_pinyata,

She’s right to compare them. Both are assigned to you based on some physical and social characteristics and can predetermine your life to an extreme degree.
Ethnicity and gender are very similar in their core, in the way they exist as a social construct, or “collective hallucination” as I like to call it.

What’s she’s wrong at is thinking either is an immutable biological fact.

flamingo_pinyata,

Let me guess, you’re an American who has never been outside of the USA, never read anything about other countries, and believes 'Murica is the greatest one forever and only one that matters (even in evil)
