    I've had other people bother me on YouTube, like when MKBHD did 90 mph in a school zone on video and never released any statement owning up to that colossal fuck up.

    It's the Breath of the Wild/Fortnite look, and honestly it's kind of overdone at this point.

    This is tempting with the new specs and the LPCAMM2 Memory Modules.

    I have never heard of that memory form factor before. Does anyone here have experience with LPCAMM2? Can I expect this to be a widely adopted standard?

    I'm surprised to see micron is the manufacturer of this. Didn't they say they were trying to get out of the consumer memory space? How will this affect memory pricing with the AI boom going on?

    I think people need to stop trying to recreate classic wow verbatim by copying blizzard code.
    It is never going to be a recipe for success, with how aggressive blizzard is with defending their IP and then doing nothing at all with it.

    Instead I would hope to see that The talented developers from Turtle WoW use their skill base to just create a brand new game. It's hard, but I think they could accomplish it.

    This is such a poignant case that resonates well with me.

    I cannot tell you how many times I talk to loved ones about this. I'm the "guy angrily shouting at cloud" whenever tech topics get brought up and I'm inevitably dragged in for my experience with family.

    I always bring it back to how none of this has to be this way. And we (as a society) have collectively decided to check out for some reason and just allow everything to decay into mediocrity and user-hostile design.

    Like, why does my laundry machine need to connect to the cloud? (Oh obviously for planned obsolescence and for mining my network data). But if you understand how a "smart device" like this works, you don't need it to be over the Internet to operate internally. You can have a phone app that communicates locally over the network to run a "smart device".

    It's just like, it's maddening watching greed drive every decision.

    However, the latest compliance with California's age verification laws in the Systemd project is annoying and concerning. Which Linux mint and several other distributions make use of.

    I had been constantly searching on and off for the better part of a year with not many bites.

    Some that could have gone further had I tried a little harder I think. And only recently had I found a new role (a few months ago).

    It's a rough market, and I've got about 12 years of professional Software Engineering experience. It is very strange indeed. Let me know if you need coaching or resume review (if you're in the same area of tech as me).

    I'm happy to help how I can.

    It's definitely not quite the same as Lebensraum.

    Since the implication of Lebensraum (in the context of the Nazi usage), was more so about invading other countries for living space. E.g., the Sudetenland etc.

    While homelandmaxxing is just group speak for right-wing adjacent "insiders". (Similar to other things like gigachad having their origins in 4chan).

    Just a broad comment I'd like to add for folks here.

    Ancient Roman lead is extremely valuable because it is needed for extremely sensitive scientific experiments. I don't know the specifics here, but it boils down to normal sources of lead being contaminated by post-nuclear radiation.

    This is refered to as "low-background X" where X is the metal or material you need.

    Low background lead, I believe, is used for detectors for things like particle accelerators and cosmic ray detectors (for things like neutrino detection arrays).

    Oftentimes scientific communities will reach out to the finders of these sorts of artifacts and offer large sums of money to access even a fraction of the finding.

    This entire article kinda gave me weird vibes honestly and feels a bit... Chaotic? Rambling?

    I don't know what you mean by a few lines. As a fellow software engineer I found it strange when you dropped this line.

    "And I’ve just figured out the recent trend is not incidental after all. Considering the global trend for islamisation and regional isolation, the economies no longer need people who invent and create — it is not “cool” anymore (at least you should thank it’s not nazis again, despite the fact they were a viable alternative actually).".

    Can you elaborate on what you are trying to imply here?

    I stopped shortly after that because it feels like I was just reading someone who anger-dumped a rant on the Internet with no real purpose or even personal sense of quality.

    I say this as genuinely kindly as I can, I think it is rather bizarre to go on a tirade about the "idiotic masses" and how simple they all are, while simultaneously having the post be full of typographic errata.

    I want to give the benefit of the doubt here, but it's hard.
