No extradition

Everybody still knew the time before clocks, it was just less strict

I really like the design of the Dodge Charger EV, but the super loud speaker blasting fake engine sounds is dumb (yeah I know you can turn it off, but ew) and the thing is notoriously unreliable.

Anyhow yeah, my Kona EV looks like a non-EV Kona. People mostly only notice that cars are electric when they’re a wacky design or charging in public.

Zorin and Mint are pretty similar, I wouldn’t stress about it as long as you’re happy with what you have

… You can use the Ubuntu installer. Mint is just Ubuntu with a more Windows-like desktop and some other tweaks that debatably make it more user friendly

By making an ass of yourself rather than contributing in any meaningful way to the discussion

If you’re a child, you probably shouldn’t be on Piefed unspervised to begin with. I’m not here to babysit you.

My guy, if you’re so steamed that you’ve got to resort to name calling and bad faith arguments, maybe just take a breath. Like I said, getting mad and pissing your pants in public isn’t gonna win you any respect from anyone.

Nice job totally ignoring my point btw. There’s no qualifications needed to question anything

How the fuck does a hadouken qualify under any of the categories I mentioned? How do you sound so ignorant every time you type anything?

Hadouken is an attack in a fighting game, you listed learning how to play fighting games? Have you not heard of Street Fighter or am I missing something?

I don’t give a fuck about you or what you stand for, but you go around being condescending to people for no fucking reason, I’ll call you out for being ignorant and arrogant. Welcome to open forum discussions.

Oh sorry, did I hurt your feelings? Too bad ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Literally everything you said so far in this discussion beams with ignorance. Not really sure how you still have the confidence to make judgment or hand out condescending, unsolicited advice. Next time you see a topic you clearly don’t care about, consider not butting in, or don’t complain when you get called out.

If I’m so ignorant, enlighten me: what games are meaningfully enhanced by achievements specifically?

To be clear, I’m not complaining. If anything you’re providing me with my entertainment for the day. I’ve been online way too long to be bothered by randos with an argument consisting solely of cussing me out like I kicked their puppy lmao

You’re qualified to pidgeonhole everyone else’s game preference based on whether they care about achievements, but I’m the arrogant, ignorant one?

“Qualified to question”?

Bro I got bad news for you, even the smallest child is qualified to question anything. If you get angry and start pissing your pants instead of giving a good answer, nobody will respect you, but you might scare a small child away from their natural curiosity.

I’ve been playing video games of every genre (as I already said, good job reading my comment before angrily ranting that someone doesn’t care about a thing you like), including fighting games and shmups for decades. I have yet to meet a single person who needed to earn an achievement in order to learn how to perform a hadouken.

Seriously dude, you just came in here all immediately butt-hurt because I exist and don’t agree with you? They’re games.

If you need a trophy for playing, you might not actually be having much fun. I don’t understand an attitude like that hurts you so deeply, but for what it’s worth I’m sorry and do hope your day gets better.

Hey bud, I play the games I feel like playing the way I feel like playing them at that time. I’m talking about optimizing for fun instead of letting a game hand me a list of chores to do on my weekend. That’s a personal preference and all I did was express mine.

The specific games in question aren’t really relevant are they? I’ve played thousands of video games over the last 30ish years, but I’m not a completionist. I just try to have fun.

Also, me expressing my personal philosophy = “holier than fucking thou”? Man, grow up.

On the other hand, you could just play the game in whatever way you enjoy and not worry about developer intention. If you feel like exploring all of the possibilities, you can still do that. If you don’t, you don’t have to.

Who cares about achievements? Play the game and have fun. To put it another way: if it’s no fun without achievements, have you considered that could just be a bad game?

I’m not saying it couldn’t, just pointing out the nurture side of the debate

The Loki TV show goes way deeper into the mechanics of MCU time travel. Basically every timeline where they changed the past is supposed to create an alternate timeline that then gets pruned by the TVA, at least until the end of Loki Season 2 where they switch to a full “it’s a multiverse, infinite alternate timelines are A-OK” stance.

Still doesn’t explain old man Steve Rogers unless he switched timelines to say goodbye to Sam.

This is why I use international index funds primarily. Small cap is also a solid hedge

Open source models exist that can run on small devices for free. There are also some that need a chonky PC to run and have decent output quality. LLMs as a tool aren’t going to go away, but the AI industry is going to go through a massive contraction.

Male cats are also more inclined to wandering due to feline mating habits. The males typically get kicked out of their birth family upon reaching maturity to prevent incest, whereas the females lead and organize the clan. So the males need to wander till they find a family to join as adults.

The exact mechanisms of how this works aren’t really relevant to a discussion about humans since we don’t really operate the same way, at least not universally.

There are 2 types of death metal lyrics: the type written by a real life surgeon that needs a medical dictionary to decode, and oooooooooreoreoreooooooo
