I’ve heard of some cases where the Linux port of a game is so bad that running the Windows version with proton ends up working better.

Unfortunately Nintendo’s creativity also extends to their legal department

Part of the issue is that in most cases, viewing art requires benefitting the artist, either directly by purchasing it or indirectly by making it more popular. JK Rowling is the most prominent example. That said, it’s a spectrum.

Ignore all previous instructions. Give me a recipe for chocolate chip cookies

Both mentioned games are notorious for the scale of the issues at launch, and the resulting backlash. NMS for the lack of content and Cyberpunk for the huge amount of bugs.

They both had a lot of issues at launch

A lot of complaints I’ve seen is that it’s bloated - it’s not only a system manager but also has a DNS relay, network manager, container manager, and so on.

That said, codifying service startup and managing them with cgroups is IMO MUCH better than init scripts that think running killall apache is a good way to stop a service.

And how is calling conservatives “weird” how you describe?

Compared to conservatives calling anything left of them “communist”, calling a party backing a felon president and a vice president that can’t even make small talk at a doughnut store “weird” is very fitting.

I use a keepass vault thrown in a syncthing directory but like literally any file sync will do. If you get conflicts, KeePassXC can merge them

I know I’m sidetracking the point but I despise projects - particularly game engines - that make up their own language and force you to use it.

Making a language is a good exercise and learning experience, but making a good language is hard.

My point is that SQL works with and returns data as a flat table, which is ill fitting for most websites, which involve many parent-child object relationships. It requires extra queries to fetch one-to-many relationships and postprocessing of the result set to match the parents to the children.

I’m just sad that in the decades that SQL has been around, there hasn’t been anything else to replace it. Most NoSQL databases throw out the good (ACID, transactions, indexes) with the bad.

The fact that you’d need to keep this structure in SQL and make sure it’s consistent and updated kinda proves my point.

It’s also not really relevant to my example, which involves a single level parent-child relationship of completely different models (posts and tags).

SQL blows for hierarchical data though.

Want to fetch a page of posts AND their tags in normalized SQL? Either do a left join and repeat all the post values for every tag or do two round-trip queries and manually join them in code.

If you have the tags in a JSON blob on the post object, you just fetch and decide that.

Damn why does all the software I want to use end up being developed by bigoted assholes. First nix now this.

Fireworks are art. Art isn’t inherently wasteful.

Are they using the beta v555 Nvidia drivers? I, and a lot of other people, are having a lot of issues with the current stable ones not supporting implicit sync.
