Man I love factorio’s art, had no idea people thought it was bad. Maybe at release. But there’s alot of attention to detail in the sprites, even the trees sway gently in the breeze. You don’t see that often in other games of a similar style.

Seems like a really roundabout way to do this, surely a unit test (no pun intended) would’ve been a better solution?

There are a tonne of apartment balconies that are just afterthoughts by the developer though. I see plenty that are narrow to the point of being useless, or 30 floors up with no enclosed overhang which just generally feels kinda terrifying.

Sure, easing into a deflating population over several hundred years is fine but tanking it and ending up with a society having to support a vastly older population ain’t easy either. Better for governments to provide positive reasons to have children but there’s zero chance of that.

Yea, talk about overcomplicating a simple task.

It really puts your suspension of disbelief to the test, and all the characters are terrible. I actually thought the netflix show was better than the book because the characters were alot more relatable.

I absolutely loved Seinfeld (the show) and recently saw his stand up in person and it was absolutely terrible, it was actually pretty shocking. He’s just so incredibly unrelatable now.

Or uh, idk, tax them properly and you achieve the same outcome without any killing.

Not that it’d ever happen though.

I love using Wednesdays to clear leave (I know, not the best day in terms of utility for holidays and stuff) as you essentially create a new Friday. Work is so much more bearable.

I mean it’s still unique to the US. Plenty of other, poorer countries have better healthcare.

Have you heard of our lord and saviour rclone?

I haven’t gone back to rsync in a long time.

Nah you gotta alias ls -a to la for more efficiency.

Yea, do it to fill your resume with some good points but once you’re not learning anything new it’s time to leave.

Nah your boss is just getting you to work beyond what you’re paid to do.

Honestly I liked it initially but it got boring quickly, just generally the same pattern of runs.

I guess so, but in my head every body has feet so the supply has to be high, compared to having the skill to draw furry stuff

I use dust all the time at work, it’s fantastic.

Surely this kind of market is oversaturated?

I use antenna pod which is able to download as well, which seems to suggest that at some point the ads get fixed. Also they’re very consistent for me, enough that I can usually cut off the first 30 seconds of ads for certain podcasts (there’s a function to skip predefined sections).

Probably too small of an audience but I’m amazed that someone hasn’t released a podcast app that has sponsorblock. Podcast ads are so predictable I’d imagine an ML model would have no issue detecting them.
