jeffhuys··on Trump wins presidency for second time
What did she accomplish?
jeffhuys··on Trump wins presidency for second time
I suggest you look for yourself at reuters or something. Whatever I type here, it's out-dated every 10 minutes or something.
jeffhuys··on Trump wins presidency for second time
The abortion thing is very much down to opinion.

Also, why is bacteria life on mars but a clump of cells is not life on earth? ;p

There's no winning this. That's why it's actually smart to let the states decide this - that way Trump has no say in it.

jeffhuys··on Trump wins presidency for second time
Yeah, sure. This is no better than all the "left is deep state" bs. This is what caused the loss.

America, thank you. Regards, Europe.

(You can't talk for all of Europe.)

Why not just a directory with subdirectories by ID? No mdfind needed, no problems with just-created directories, no wait, etc

Yeah that's all fun, I don't have anything to hide either. But what if I actually WILL in the future, retroactively? I've said a few things here and there, what if certain types of speech end up getting banned and if you don't remove it on time (or lost access), you risk jail-time?

Seems far away, but it's literally happening in England.

Please watch out with this kind of thinking - it's dangerous to everyone.

Wow, really? That's surprising to me, do you have a link so I can see the rest of the stats?

jeffhuys··on Factorio – Visualizing construction material dependencies
> Factorio is an excellent tower defense game!

It really is, isn't it. You're incentivized to protect every last thing, not because of some arbitrary points system, but because they're all part of a big, interconnected system that needs to work in order to survive.

In my book, Factorio is up there at the top of best games of all time.

jeffhuys··on Factorio – Visualizing construction material dependencies
Factorio is definitely good for your brain - it rewards focus, refactoring, problem solving, linear thinking... But yes, in the end, it's non-productive in any physical sense.

A weekend of watching movies/shorts feels way worse than a weekend growing the factory. It's definitely a step up, but the best would be to get out of the house more often besides going to the office.

One day at a time (recovering from a lot of past emotional pain).

I'm off every Monday! So let's hope it's morning at my place when it drops.

It's NEXT WEEK?! That made me so happy I got goosebumps. I gotta take some vacation days.
jeffhuys··on Factorio – Visualizing construction material dependencies
Oooh, I love Factorio, code, and graphs. What a treat! This'll come in handy soon; JUST finished my starterbase and want to use it to create a "megabase" (or probably "mediumbase" since it's my first time).

Thank you for sharing!

I don’t think you need to port that much as macOS is based om freeBSD

Why, though?
jeffhuys··on Experimental web browser optimized for rabbit-holing
Orion - Safari with support for FF/Chrome extensions (ALSO on iOS. For free), and has tree-style tabs if you enable it.

My browsing has become so much more enjoyable. Also, since it’s almost the same as Safari, great resource management, great gestures, great performance. Definitely recommended

jeffhuys··on EU: Definition of "potential terrorists" opens door to broad information-sharing
Either way, banning a political party is just going to feed the flame.

Also, speech you hate ≠ hate speech.

That’s not a rebuttal. That’s whataboutism.
jeffhuys··on AMD GPU Inference
Why doesn’t it make sense? You can talk to devices from a Docker container - you just have to attach it.
jeffhuys··on I made a game you can play without anyone knowing (no visuals/sound)
Boredom is a bad feeling “by design” - it makes us go out and find new experiences. If, in this current world, you’re in a situation where you really can’t get out of, we instinctively try to find distractions.

Thinking about stuff is also a distraction. And for some people there’s nothing to solve, really, as they’re okay where they’re at in life.

That’s why I feel like you’re projecting a bit; it’s not intolerable, it’s just… nothing. So if you have no other option, why not play a game?

I’m currently not in the camp of “nothing to think about” - I could sit for hours and do nothing except think. But there were (and will be) times in my life where that would not feel good - I wanted experiences!

So why state it again? This helps, for instance, people who go on vacation and takes pictures the entire trip, only to come home and realise they have only 16MB of storage, not 16GB, and their pics are gone.

I just replied to another one of your comments. This one also feels like an LLM. Your comments are so different from eachother when I go to your profile; some are like “ya me too bud” and some are so extremely chatgpt like, such as this one…
jeffhuys··on Be a thermostat, not a thermometer (2023)
I don’t know why and I might be wrong, but (parts of) some of your comments read exactly like an LLM response, while other parts feel like you typing additional stuff “around” the response.
