He's only not evil because he can't understand his actions.

A god would have to be dumb for this logic to apply.

How does this compare to Joplin?

Is there, or will there be a self-hostable server to sync notes between devices?

And does it support Markdown?

I wish they were more upfront about the GOG release date.
I'll gladly buy this once it's available DRM-free, like its predecessor.

Well then let me actually download the movie like it was a game, then! And how exactly does it take less bandwidth? It's still tens or hundreds of gigabytes to download every time someone wants to install a game, most people only use the offline installers as backups.

AFAIK this applies retroactively.

I also have plenty of experience emulating all kinds of things, including Windows - in fact, I have an instance of Win 98 in a VM right now.

That said, I can't agree that it's in any way easy for the average Joe. It's not rocket science, but it's by far harder than just having a working executable.

If nothing else, consider the legality of it - you must have a legal copy of the specific version of Windows, often the specific BIOS, as well. These are not easy (or cheap, often) to acquire these days.

Then you likely need to make sure your CPU supports Hyper-V, then install the entire OS...

Then you often need to make sure you're emulating the specific CPU with the specific GPU, with the specific sound card, or else this specific Windows 95 game will CTD or be missing features. Old games were finicky and OS emulation for gaming is only easy on the surface.

Oh, Russia is winning this war? Is that why it didn't end in their estimated 3 days? Is that why Prigozhin marched on the Kremlin? Is that why they're asking North Korea for weapons now?

So much winning.

No one is cheering for the war, no matter how many times you say it.

People may cheer for Ukrainian independence, or for their victories, but no one wants the war to continue. The war can end today, if only Russia decides to give back all the land they took by force, including Crimea.

You're building a strawman.

Then why did Russia start amassing troops and preparing for war months before these ceasefire violations even happened?

What's more plausible, that Russia has precognitive abilities, or that it was looking for an excuse?

And isn't attacking another country kind of counter to this whole 'peace talks' narrative you seem to be suggesting? Shouldn't Russia itself start with condemning the ceasefire violations, instead of entering Ukraine with their army?

No matter which way you try to slice it, Russia is an aggressor.

Edit:
Btw I would have no trouble believing that Russia (or Russian-aligned separatists) bombed a part of Ukraine to make Ukraine look bad and take over the territory. They're committing war crimes left and right, and this would not be the worst one.

Why would you use blockchain to track shipments when you can easily do the same with a standard database? What would be the gain?

My point is that we need time and patience, not interfacing with Meta. Whether they use ActivityPub or something proprietary shouldn't matter to us and I'm not convinced matters at all in this context.
Meta already didn't wait - they have Facebook, Instagram etc. There's Twitter. We already exist in a space with big competitors, and somehow it works. Inviting them to our space sounds risky (risk of centralization, ads, bots, rage bait for engagement...).
If our thing is better, more wholesome, with less ads and bots, it's going to attract the people we want on our platform, regardless of whether or not we federate with Meta.
Plus, as was already said, fediverse success should not be measured by how many people use it. If enough do to produce good content and engage with, that's great on its own :) Small communities have benefits.

ChatGPT has no concept of truth or sources. It will straight up lie to you.
It's nice for "creative" stuff but never, ever take its responses at face value.
