Yes, spring of 2444 with my brain in a jar.

Alright, trying it. I don’t use Flatpak for anything else because of updating, but Steam updates itself anyway so that shouldn’t be a factor.

EDIT: I forgot dependencies are a bit rough (almost 2GiB total) because sandboxing, so that might’ve been a bigger factor before

Re-installing worked, so I am not sure what happened with the dependency solver (hopefully this doesn’t happen again soon). Though I am almost to the point Steam wouldn’t be such a big loss especially if I can still play a few DRM-free games already downloaded.

Undiagnosed (aside from TTT at home) EDS/POTS here (mild), I biked enough to notice a difference but I didn’t hit the point where it aligned with this post (maybe because I don’t really sweat, stress on my body changes the effect?). Even with inactivity, muscle loss is not an issue for me.

Though the biggest issue with cycling for me is that I don’t really have (m)any destinations, distance makes most trips not viable for what they are (particularly factoring in return trip) or add complication when it comes to hours or weather. Daylight savings ending combined with shorter days ruined it for me, too.

:: installing lib32-libjpeg-turbo (3.0.4-2) breaks dependency 'lib32-libjpeg' required by lib32-mjpegtools

But in all honesty, I just can’t be bothered to fix it.

My general tactic is to wait until things get fixed… has worked for many years, no longer it seems. Before this I also got bit by an nVidia/systemd issue (won’t always wake from suspend) that I did try to fix and updates didn’t help either so instead I just shut my computer down now. EDIT: This seems fixed now, too

It also does not help that I have 6mb/s internet (shared with other people) thus cannot really update frequently (and thus not auto-update). This isn’t even my original install either, the re-install didn’t help as long as I hoped.

I probably need to switch to something else, but packaging/updating always seems flawed. I tried Tumbleweed a while back, but was quickly annoyed by patterns and did not like the suggested work-around.

TL;DR: It me

Me unable to update my system, trying not to cry while using Blender:

Updated, so at least one issue down.

Yeah, I feel like the remakes lost some charm specifically when it comes to rendering tech (vertex colors, losing Spyro’s skyboxes feels like a crime). Particularly with the new data bloat.

That, and it seems re-makes don’t really fix core issues (Medievil’s remake).

I think the original tech/limits can be taken further aesthetically for a different workflow (very general/sparse use of textures), especially in the modern era. Still undecided on some artistic/technical choices, but I have much more here than I do in the ways of (low-scope) starting project ideas that I like.

Is this supposed to be self-deprecating or did you forget to switch accounts?

Yes, because of the over-the-top “personally traveled” bit… and it’d likely end with DMCA.

Though looking at just one list of Nintendo’s mass takedown of free fan-games, it seems very likely* it directly resulted in many children being terribly upset (and maybe thinking they’ll be sued/jailed)… even if they made their own assets, just because they included a trademarked term in the title/description for something they just wanted to share with their friends. (I’m sure many did use assets, but we are likely talking about decades-old material here)

So it’s not that big of a stretch, it’s just not guaranteed that we’d hear this much about it.

*= judging by FNAF/sonic crossovers, content/spelling of titles, creepypasta stuff, and likely terrible art if you can still find more than a URL

I would take this deal. (meaning fate on the tracks)

Both is rule

reactions … are incredibly dark

The mood: El Risitas laughing

Aside from a last resort, for what purpose?

I would rather go the opposite direction: brain stays (mostly) stock but supported by multiple other forms of life. Much more of a gut microbiome, harmless viruses etc add to immune system, mycelium network, microbiome automatically cleans surface.

Swap resources with a tree, filter contaminates from air/water or produce organic compounds, photosynthesis in larger tanks (stationary) or luminescence in organic gel (body).

That’d still just be a copy.

And sounds like “I like the idea of ai, but I want something even less ethical.” Unless it is highly specialized to the point of non-sapience. “Existence? Look buddy, I cook and that’s it. I can contemplate the life cycles of ingredients and I do my best to have a safe kitchen, but beyond that I don’t have the information to think about it.”

[ ✔️ ] Willing to convert, but into a cyborg because the distinction is important… but if I’m being honest I’m basically a defective organic robot, so if you put my canned brain into a metal body with a digital voice I would be indistinguishable from a robot.

That leaves out how public opinion changed after motive was known.

The assassination brought the many social issues with the Unification Church under the spotlight again, as well as tumbled the approval of the ruling party. Under the public pressure, the responsible ministry decided to file a dissolution order against the UC with the Tokyo District Court on 13 October 2023, after nearly a year of investigation of wrongdoings

Japanese people cosplaying Yamagami’s appearance during Abe’s assassination were spotted at events like the rally against Abe’s state funeral. These cosplayers held cardboard signs displaying the leaders they were against: Abe, Ali Khamenei, Vladimir Putin and Xi Jinping

It is a free and easy way to experience 75% of the experience without even downloading it (data bloat has massively ballooned too, perhaps needlessly in some cases). Also linear stories, or procedural things not being as deep as they seem.

Even when it comes to indie-appearing stuff I often don’t like the direction of the game design/difficulty, so it will likely be a more enjoyable experience in those cases too. The narrator also cuts boring bits or issues, also may do things I would not especially when it comes to skill or knowledge of said game. They may do silly things or tell a story. This may be 300% experience (of a new mix).

EDIT: Also never really been into the idea of multiplayer games, competitive or cooperative for different reasons. So watching is a new avenue for that.

You got scammed, bro. 4-stroke lungs are a much better deal. (uni-directional breathing, air sacs before/after lungs. birds, crocodiles, dinosaurs)

Honestly I am not aware/well enough to even fix the kinks in my own system let alone hop or do much real development, so that’s a no from me for moving to a platform with low support to a platform with even less support.

If we could just get the brave to get out of bed in the morning…
