pennomi,

The thing is that it has hints of brilliance underneath all the bad. The mission structure was far better than the original, and obviously the artistic direction was better. If the bugs could get fixed and the features mostly matched up to KSP1, I’d say it was superior.

pennomi,

Why would you ever use this when you could instead have a cluster of suicide quadcopters with grenades for the same price? It has almost all of the vulnerabilities and few of the benefits.

pennomi,

Libertarianism works really well in communities sized under Dunbar’s number. Once you have more than that, you need much stronger laws. Young people just don’t have the experience to know just how much diversity there is in the world around them.

Dunbar’s number is only around 150, so that greatly limits the number of situations Libertarianism works well in.

Sadly, even if that billion dollars was somehow taxed, the obstructionists in government would be sure to stop it from going to reproductive rights. So oddly enough a billionaire is the only way for this kind of good to happen.

pennomi,

It’s harder to obstruct the greater majority of people in other governmental systems. Ours is set up so literally one bad actor can fully hijack the entire legislative process, and that bad actor can be elected by the minority of the population.

pennomi,

LEGO Legend of Zelda, I can’t believe it finally happened.

pennomi,

Aren’t modern vehicles more fuel efficient though, despite being bigger? Imagine if we kept them the same size and still improved their efficiency.

pennomi,

Dude in the third panel needs to go to the hospital. His leg is bending the wrong way.

pennomi,

Nobody really needs a 2D projection of the world anymore - we’re all packing superior 3D renderers in our pockets. It’s just hard to break old habits.

pennomi,

Just for reference, Bad Dragon is a famous dildo brand, so their joke didn’t really need fixing.

pennomi,

The US will strike a hell of a lot more than that if Russia uses a tactical nuke. It’d be the perfect opportunity to show the world that they can bomb you back into the stone age even without nukes.

pennomi,

Yeah LLMs are stupidly easy to lead by “begging the question”.

Why publishers are preparing to federate their sites - Digiday (digiday.com)

The Verge and 404 Media are building out new functions that would allow them to distribute posts on their sites and on federated platforms – like Threads, Mastodon and Bluesky – at the same time. Replies to those posts on those platforms become comments on their sites.

pennomi,

Yeah but now they have to play by our rules or get defederated. We are no longer at the mercy of profit motives.

pennomi,

You know what they say: heaven for the weather, hell for the company!

pennomi,

GIMP needs the Blender treatment honestly. Inkscape too. That would cover the vast majority of what I do art-wise.

pennomi, (edited )

Oh god FreeCAD is a nightmare to learn. But it does get work done. I wish Blender could move more into that space.

Inkscape is lovely but imo it could use some interface cleanup. (And really it has been getting better each major update.)

pennomi,

Touch grass. It’s the best replacement for social media of any kind!

pennomi,

Honestly, dating apps are one of the cases for a federated system. Use whatever frontend you want, no one person owns the backend so they can’t sleazily monetize you. Probably would need to be a bit more cryptographic than something like lemmy or mastodon though.

pennomi,

Maybe this will convince NASA to let the Polaris missions reboost Hubble.

pennomi,

Agreed, people overcomplicate their software these days. Most websites could even operate with little or no javascript, and they’d be a lot faster for it.

pennomi,

I mean, Twitter is the dumbest shit on the internet. But Reddit gets close sometimes!

pennomi,

Politics turns nice people into assholes real quick.
