Vile. Disgusting.

I feel so bad for the minority of people there. But the majority apparently, instead of seeing "fuck yeah, Kamala, she could be beacon of democracy and progress in the world" decided "nope, orange man hate people me hate so FUCK YOU OTHER PEOPLE".

It's so sad.

I mean, you can use custom search engines, but the only way to get them on android is to sync them over from a desktop install.

It's such a strange kludge, especially if you a) don't use desktop vivaldi or b) don't use sync. Maybe one day they'll add in the menu item or whatever. It's getting better but Android Vivaldi has been getting like one new feature a year it seems like.

I feel like some journalist got high as fuck with a dev, wrote out a fucking fever dream of... drivel and then the editors were like fuck it, Tim Sweeney pays us to post some hit pieces against Valve and this is all we got this month so we'll just run with this.

Copyright of code doesn't work that way. Now if some idiot goes and uses that code in a game, yeah, they'd have a rough time in court.

If Nintendo thought there was infringement already, and wanted to prove it in court, there are means to securely prove it with redactions and NDA's and so forth as it would be considered trade secret.

Reddit is worse but they use puppet accounts so you can't easily tell.

Fuck it. I'm inventing a new scale.

Behold! "Disagree Degrees". We're going to combine the best traits of the other units. No more searching for the stupid little degree character in the character map. D for degrees or disagrees - whatever, I don't give a shit.

0D = 0K (Like Kelvin, no negatives! That's so dumb!) 0.4D = -40 C and -40 F 1D = Water Freezing point (Need a consistent point of scale) 10D = "Pleasant temperature" 100D = Kind of hot 500D = Really hot for people (>40C or >100F) "It's like 500 disagrees out there!" 1000D= Water boiling (To match the freezing temp) 1,000,000,000,000D = Surface of the sun

Good luck on the math converting to other units, this temperature scale isn't about being useful for nerd stuff, it's all about appealing to our emotions.

The meme faces are backwards on this one.

That's how I usually interpret it except in Godzilla Minus One :

Tap for spoilerA whole plot point is that he is in 1500m of water

Super handy when you're working in data centers.

The free version of the game still exists! The paid version literally only gets you the new tileset and music but is otherwise the exact same game and still updated! And if the ASCII tileset is a big turn off, people had made free tilesets years ago you could use instead (it was the only way I could play the game myself back in pre-steam days).

"Mario is Missing" for the SNES.

I remember opening the Sears catalog and seeing what must be the sequel to Super Mario World. I shovelled driveways and busted open my piggy bank - it was a full price Nintendo game and I had to have it.

I started my subscription to Nintendo Power after that...
