Fun fact: Roko’s basilisk is not from QC. It’s a thought experiment about AI that predates the comic character by about 6 years. The character’s just named after it.

“npm install” in particular is getting me.

What I want Supergiant to do is… whatever the fuck they want.

I don’t see the game getting either of those things.

Duos, you can already do, you just have to take on a rando as a third. They could scale the difficulty down for 2 players, sure, but Elden Ring’s mutiplayer scaling is notoriously terrible, in part because no amount of scaling can account for the lost potential for splitting aggro, in a game where splitting aggro is king.

Voice chat is something that FromSoft has INTENTIONALLY never included in any prior game, despite there being co-op in all of them. Making players coordinate with each other with very limited communication tools is one of FromSoft’s signature design choices. The fast pace of this game compared to prior games makes the lack of communication tools hurt a lot more, for sure, but it’s still very much playable. Anyone who dislikes this design choice is absolutely free to, but it’s not gonna change.

Normally, I’d be on board with you, but it does strike me as notable that Coffee Stain has apparently ALREADY been under the umbrella of shareholders this whole time, and is still fucking THRIVING. I’ll also note that Coffee Stain is based in Sweden, where all the things that make them great (I.E. the way devs are treated, which lets them thrive and make great shit) isn’t about to change.

So, I think it’s worth tempering the pessimism a bit, for now. We’ll have to see how it plays out.

What makes you say that? Do you say “everything else” to mean all the studios that aren’t splitting off along with Coffee Stain? From what’s here, I don’t see why Coffee Stain is in any different boat than everyone else underneath “Coffee Stain Group”.

I’ll take another look, but I didn’t see any such setting when I was trying to diagnose. And I haven’t changed any Plex settings since the last time we had an internet outage and it worked properly, just a month or two ago.

I recently discovered that Plex no longer works over local network, if you lose internet service. A) you can’t login without internet access. B) even if you’re already logged in, apps do not find and recognize your local server without internet access. So, yeah, Plex is already there.

Is the BlueSky OP here not a native English speaker? Cause, BOY that was tough to follow.

This isn’t just a horrifically-misleading headline, it’s straight-up false.

The bill originally was written to directly establish personhood of a fetus, but Democrats got an amendment in that keeps the “pregnant mothers get to use the carpool lane” part, without the language that establishes personhood for a fetus. They literally called the Republicans’ bluff on “this bill is about supporting mothers”, by making that specific. This caused one Republican to retract his vote, because the amendment “guts the pro-life purpose of the bill”.

Entire final hour of Tears of the Kingdom.

Por que, no los dos?

Honestly, if you’re having trouble finding stuff for vanilla JS, I’d recommend looking at jQuery. Not that you should USE jQuery, necessarily, but the library is basically a giant wrapper around all the native JS APIs, so the approach to building stuff is essentially the same: it all focuses on tracking and manipulation of DOM elements.

I do vanilla JS (actually TypeScript) dev at work, daily, and that was my big takeaway from spearheding our team’s migration from jQuery to vanilla TypeScript: I honestly don’t know what benefit jQuery provides, over vanilla, because all the most-common jQuery APIs that we were using have a 1:1 native equivalent.

We do also use 2 third-party libraries alongside vanilla, so I’l mention those: require.js and rx.js. Require you probably don’t need, with modern JS having bundling and module support built-in but we still use it for legacy reasons. But rx.js is a huge recommend, for me. Reactive programming is the IDEAL way to build GUIs, in my opinion.

Blue Prince sure feels like it counts, our whole family is hooked, and has been playing it every day for about 2 weeks now. Even well after rolling credits.

In a similar vein, I’d have to say Hollow Knight and Outer Wilds. Together with Blue Prince, they all have a storytelling strategy of “you have to put some effort into getting the story out of it”, but the effort makes every new discovery or revelation feel super rewarding.

Celeste is the one that comes to mind for a more traditional story that REALLY hit.

Persona 5 comes to mind, too. I was ENGROSSED in that story for months. Even if it went off the rails a couple times.

I’m also gonna shout-out Tales of Symphonia. That game was formative for me.

Wouldn’t be the one where Lrrr and Nd’Nd break up for s bit, woul it?

Sick. I’ve tried a few times in the past to find a frontend for postgres that I liked, and was never able to. Will have to give this a try.

He was much less vocal in the past, back when SpaceX and Tesla were getting big. He barely HAD any amount of public persona, so people just associated him with the cool tech that the companies were doing. That was also before he started taking direct control over technical decisions, so the tech they were outti g out was actually pretty cool.

Something around… like 8 years ago?.. made him lose his good sense for keeping his mouth shut. Obvious bet would be the ketamine.

The most straightforward thing to do, on a private LAN, is to make all your own certs, from a custom root cert, and then manually install that cert as “trusted” on each machine. If none of the machines on this network need to accessed from outside the LAN, then you’re golden.

Yeah, just like it was announced for 2023 in that one XBox showcase.

I’ll believe it when I’m playing it.
