Yeah, I do like multifaceted morally grey or even villainous characters with interesting or even aspiring motives.
Don’t ever watch HunterXHunter, The number of characters in that anime that aren’t majorly flawed in one way or another you can count on your fingers. One of the communities favorite characters is a murderous pedo clown that serves as the main characters mentor and drop-in father-figure for a large part of the story.
EVE Online AKA Spreadsheets Online, back when I played it in 2009. No idea if it’s the same now. Almost entirely player driven economy and factions (outside of hi-sec).
Elite Dangerous, sort of. No other Space Sim is on its scale (I wouldn’t really call something like Space Engine a space sim). Unique, but mixed recommendations because it’s a very shallow game in a lot of ways, but it’s got a cool vibe. Speaking of which…
Space Engine. Not really a game, so much as a universe-simulator. It is unknown to this day how a mortal could create something of this grandeur. Maybe the source code will be released eventually.
Someone else already mentioned Noita :(
Cataclysm: Dark Days Ahead is the most realistic game ever made. No other game had made me ask “what would I do in real life?” before. Of course, this dies out the more you learn the meta, but your first dozen or so runs are special.
Minecraft is hardly unique now, but when it came out it was one-of-a-kind.
I’ve only finished the anime up to season 4, but I don’t think the theme is that “Nazarick is evil and evil skeleton overlord is fun”, but rather “do the ends justify the means Nazarick takes”, given that Ainz wants to create a utopia where all races live in harmony. It’s very interesting writing given how much time and humanity is given to side characters that are eventually destroyed or imperialized by Nazarick.
That’s funny because if you actually watched Overlord you’d know Ainz’ goal (besides getting back to the real world) is to create a utopia where all races are equal. But keep throwing buzzwords if it makes you feel good.
For someone that hates the right you make a lot of generalizations. Every country with power is a mess politically, but that says nothing about their art.
Very well, we will give proper education outside of the schools.
If you’ve ever watched Overlord you’d know the dead deserve to rule over the living
Encrypted XMPP/IRC+ZNC/other plain text protocol is the best. Mobile data is everywhere and cheap, especially for text messages. Only one person has to do the heavy lifting setting up the server on a VPS with encryption; connecting the clients is easy. The hard part is getting people to use them when network providers and Android/iOS devs shoehorn SMS/MMS/RCS as the default and only option.
Unless you want to tell me that the Android kernel is the first OS kernel without bugs, it takes at the very least one bug to be left intentionally unfixed and shared with the feds to introduce a backdoor. I wouldn’t consider it infeasible with how large the android kernel is, and how high a barrier of entry kernel dev is. If the bug is found, just move to the next one. Normally I wouldn’t be so paranoid, but this is Google we’re dealing with, on one of, if not the most popular kernels on the planet.
Your ability to ride the fence is admirable OP, don’t let anyone take it from you 🙏
postmarketOS, native, on pinephone. There’s a few mobile devices these days that can run mobile Linux.
Random hardware suggestions, using mobile Linux support as a litmus test
As for the pixel, there’s work on it but it’s still broken at the moment. As for the hardware being too old, I haven’t used anything Android in a while, so I don’t know how much performance degrades each release, but a mobile Linux distribution should run just as good today as it will 20 years from now, assuming you use the same interface.
Nah I ain’t about that rust life
I don’t trust the google kernel when it comes to privacy or security. You think with how many people use Android and with how bad actors Google are they wouldn’t put a backdoor somewhere?
It’s as easy as following any set of instructions. Whether or not you actually understand what the instructions are doing is an entirely different story. If you actually want to learn how to operate a posix system, doing a bunch of command line installs of Linux isn’t going to help you with that. What will help is living in something with excellent documentation like OpenBSD, with minimal reliance on external tooling. Once you have the skills, they’ll transfer anywhere.
I run a real linux on my phone, so I can use it for anything I can use my laptop/desktop/unix for. I think what people forget is that phones are ultimately just computers with a WWAN radio, and the restrictive nature of Android and especially iOS obfuscate that.
Or even better, write userscripts that can be used anywhere instead of inside some non portable extensions framework
I’d like to see this “CEO of AI” stand on the same ground as the CEO of Sex
Easier question: Which marketing tactics DO you like?
I like Steam’s discovery queue, sometimes I find some pretty interesting stuff. It’s entirely voluntary, and I can leave at any time, instead of holding my time ransom and demanding my attention with annoying cringe-inducing content like most marketing.
