ROCKSMITH 2014 LEAVING STORES - Ubisoft (www.ubisoft.com)

You may want to know that Ubisoft’s Rocksmith® 2014 Edition will be de-listed from Steam after October 23rd, 2023 which is one week from this post date. This is a game that makes learning to play the guitar like Guitar Hero/Rockband, which can score you or let you slowly practice a part with scrolling fret indicators....

dvoraqs,

Even with open source software, there would still need to be license to use the music and that is expiring

dvoraqs,

Oh yeah, I’ve played one or two of those. How many of them are open source?

dvoraqs,

Attention and time are the new resources companies are after. Maybe you’d send a stronger message by ignoring it completely than to show that you still want to enjoy their content.

dvoraqs,

When I had a daily commute and switched to public transportation, I loved being able to do something else with my time than paying attention to the road to navigate and react to other cars.

dvoraqs,

There’s a reinforcing feedback loop there. I only see that occasionally on my commutes now, but it is a reflection of the community and the people who consider it an option for them. The more unusual taking public transportation is, the more unusual the people will be. But we can help to normalize it.

dvoraqs,

Gender is a social tool that has been used to group people or ourselves into categories based on characteristics related to sex. On some level, it has to be based on appearance because we don’t usually know what genitals somebody has or their medical history.

Just having men and women is a too simple version of the tool. People are complicated and varied and for many reasons sometimes don’t see themselves as belonging to either bucket or prefer other ones altogether.

How do you turn your nose off or deal with a heinous smell?

I’m going to visit my grandfather this weekend. His house smells like a skunk rolled around in some rotten cabbages, died, and got eaten and pooped out by a water buffalo. Thankfully I dont have to sleep there, but I do have to visit for a few hours, a couple days in a row. Last time, I wore a mask with mint toothpaste rubbed...

dvoraqs,

Sensitivity to smells will dissipate over a short time. Your senses will pay more attention to novel stimuli, so your nose will eventually get “bored” of it and stop even noticing it when you are acclimated enough.

dvoraqs,

I would just rather people talk and get that information across rather than just become indignant at being asked a question.

dvoraqs,

Maybe you mean this woman in particular.

A tip for migrating from Google Photos to Synology

After exporting my photos for migration to Synology, Google gave me 95 2GB zip files to download. I tried downloading directly into my mapped network drive, but the speed was super slow. My tip for you is if you are familiar with docker, you can spin up a Firefox container and map your desired network drive to the container. If...

dvoraqs,

The WiFi must be on his machine that he was using to manually download the files, but he later delegated that task to a docker image, sharing the wired connection of the Synology host machine.

dvoraqs,

I’m fairly certain that tolerance does mute the spiciness of foods. There are foods others struggle with that I hardly notice is even spicy.

It feels more like building a muscle than building a skill.
