Oh, soviet union 2. Now with more soviets.

The nazis’ economy was a shell game of debt, and they were overextended militarily. Their regime would have fallen even if they had won the war. Secondly, the USSR at first joined forces with the nazis until they were betrayed by them, and after the soviets joined the allies, they received massive aid under the lend-lease act. And even with the aid, they still had to rely on human-wave tactics.

Some humans want to travel even when they’re perfectly happy.

He’s being blamed for all of this, though, and his base is angry about the Iran war.

He can’t buy you a new one because he’s been banned from every furniture store in the world, and he knows damn well why.

If you look at the 🌳 , the don’t have leaves, indicating that the picture was taken on a cloudy autumn day. Everything looks depressing on a cloudy autumn day.

Thing is, Hitler didn’t make the trains run on time. The Autovahn was already being build when the Nazis took power, which they then took credit for. Germany’s economy was basically a shell game of debt.

A lot of crap products are at least decent enough to not have a half life.

I just wanted to try and figure out whether the quality of Lutris had indeed declined as you said in your earlier comment. I’m not trying to get the game running, “Age of Wonders 4” is just the first title in my library.

Edit: But thanks anyway.

After reading your comment, I tried it for myself, running “Age Of Wonders 4” through Lutris 0.5.22. Nothing happened. As in, literally nothing, game didn’t launch, and no error. Then downgraded Lutris to 0.5.19, and first I got a message saying that wine needed to install something, and then I got an error message saying “A java script error occurred in the main process”.

So the results of my experiment are inconclusive. I consider an error message a better than result than nothing visibly happening, because an error message at least tells me nothing its not working, instead of letting me wait and wait.

So, yes, it appears that the quality of Lutris has declined after the developer started using Claude Code. However, my experiment was just a quick and dirty experiment, and ultimately further research is necessary.

I propose the following experiment, keep in mind that this is basically a rough sketch of the procedure:

1. Set up two virtual machines running linux, a and b. (TODO: Decide on distro)
2. Install Lutris 0.5.22 on a, and 0.5.19 on b.
3. Try out several games on both a and b, both installed and launched through lutris, and record how well they run.

True, but line isn’t going down yet.

1000 years, that’s when the region becomes habitable once again.

Notice how the guy’s legs don’t line up with the body?

Well, seems like he learned his lesson. Would have been better if he had learned it before his bad advice got children killed, but at least he learned instead of doubling down.

Sort of yes, but also no. High tier LLM’s are all offered well below cost. So if the costs were to go up, a lot of current users would not be able to afford to run AI agents anymore.

Mistaking the map for the territory. The argument isn’t that bitcoin is bad because it’s used to buy drugs, it’s bad because the network would choke if it even had to handle the economic activity of a moderately sized town.

“Accidentally” CC your reply to the mailing list with everybody in it.

What did you have mind?

I figure a ban of targeted advertisement would look like “The ads are only allowed to change once a day, and everybody during said day sees the same ads”. Whereas currently, each time you load a website, there’s an impromptu auction to sell the ad spots. (Advertisers don’t actually have to pay until you click their ad). So there would be less incentive to keep the user constantly engaged, as it would be enough if the user just visits regularly.

I’ve been trying to remember the name of this number. Thanks.
