tbh maybe it's good and changes something quicker and on the long term that rich people experience it firsthand before the Maldives or Bangladesh

(probably nothing just me being optimistic but the rich always have a get out of jail card, like X more properties)

> Apted acknowledged flaws with the show, saying it was a "horrible error" to have only four women in a cast of 14 when making the original selection

I am more surprised they could only found 14 white kids even in 1964!

A show like this would be very different today.

That's the caveat of Proton. Running games on unsupported platforms they are not meant for. And if it doesn't work who's fault that? Valve? The dev? No one because it's open source so fix your own?

Honestly Valve should have a stricter warning if a game is Windows only

Unfortunately peasants like us who don't live in the 5 countries where it's available still can't look back

Yet he is actively making the world worse at Google. Go (lol) figure!

I’m going to take the bait:

I know a lot of people don't like that but sometimes I feel that FOSS projects are intentionally sabotaging themselves by ignoring industry standard options/conventions and instead they are following open source ideas just to be different. GIMP is the perfect example of that and generally speaking UI/UX is the main symptom.

Blender was able to move forward by not listening to the FOSS crowd but to the industry. And see where are they now compared to GIMP.

So McDonald's has a monopoly on the Big Mac? Because you can go to Burger King (Xbox) or KFC (Switch) or Sonic (PC) as well but this group is arguing they want to have a Big Mac but not from McDonald's? Or actually McDonald's doesn't have a monopoly because you can technically buy a Big Mac from Uber Eats or Doordash?

>I feel like there has been a lot of unnecessary pushback about 'Thing in Japan' articles on the internet. Guess what, there are cool things everywhere; including Japan.

That's the point of the whole meme. People think it's interesting because of Japan not because of the content itself is interesting.

Did you know there are 12,000 Zabka stores in Poland and they are almost as ubiquitous as konbinis? Guess what, no gives a fuck because it's not Japan but an eastern European country https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C5%BBabka_(convenience_store)

I wish they had a plan between free and 120€/year. I don't need 2TB storage but the free plan's 2GB is also nothing

My SO bought an Ioniq 6 mostly because of the buttons and the seperate control surface for AC and such but they test drived a BYD as well which was the same as a Tesla, just one huge tablet and endless menus

It's a hobby but not for everyone. I mean if I could just throw away 3,000€ on random projects that might work or not I'd do it in a heartbeat. No different than buying a run down Porsche for 5,000€ and spending 40,000€ on restoration to original. Every hobby is like that but with different entry price points. There is a reason knitting is more popular than something like this (and even that has price tiers from 3€ for an acrylic yarn to upwards 100€ for luxury merino wool yarn)

Posting here is rage bait knowing the audience.

I’m not blaming the user but it’s single post from 15 days ago where one single user having problems opening their files. You _know why_ it is posted here

Peak rage bait for HN. [0] It has already more karma than the reddit post itself.

Not that I’m saying what’s happening is good but one single user having problems opening their files not sure warrant a post here unless your goal is the rage bait.

0, And just one more proof that HN is not that different from most social media sites.

Now all we need is a quick vibe coded web GUI front end

I'm sorry but why C#? Isn't the big tech (Microsoft) in this case is a very big downside?

Why not LÖVE (Lua) for example? https://love2d.org/

There is also libGDX (Java) but not sure Oracle is any better than Microsoft. https://libgdx.com/

First of all this the ground 0 for everything piracy (and more, generally free stuff) https://fmhy.net/

Here are the recommended film sites https://fmhy.net/video#torrent-sites

I generally download from https://rutracker.org/ (need an account to search not for downloading). They have pretty much everything that you can imagine (not just films) and in proper quality too (BD Remuxes etc). There will be no scene releases here because they add russian/ukrainian dubs and subs to almost all films but that's a small problem.

The other one is Heartive which lists torrents from the DHT network with Magnet links https://heartiveloves.pages.dev/ You just click on the torrent icon in the middle top of the selected film and all the available releases will be listed in plain text. The only downside that you need to be familiar with the release tags

Last but not least https://nyaa.si/ if you have a slight interest in anything japanese from manga to anime to much more

If you know how to use a CLI tool then you could also know how to download proper high quality releases without much effort. No private tracker and interview shenanigans. YTS is a bottom of the barrel quality. I actually don't even see who is the target audience of this unless you just made as an exercise to build an app on top of an API.

So more lootboxes and illegal underage gambling everywhere? Cool bring it on!

Also I'd imagine a Valve like Apple would only release a new phone or laptop every 5 years or so lol

If they want to capture the console audience its better be priced like one too and not prevent me from playing multiplayer games due to Linux and anti cheat software not playing nice

Anything above $600 is DOA and that's with accepting the fact that the most popular games will be not available on the platform

If you are american you'll probably never notice how off-putting is the american niceness. And it's not natural if you ever traveled and seen the world a little bit.

I'm curious what does it do that Libre Office can't do?

I always have this strong preconception about proprietary Mac apps. When a screenshot tool costs for example $30

I'm probably the extreme minority on HN (0.00001%) but I pretty much never used any CLI applications. Just never really needed them. But recently at work (we use Macs) I had some tasks which need the Terminal.app so I kinda tried to dig in and learn some stuff but whenever I feel I already know something (more or less) there is always some new stuff entering the picture next day. Shell, console, terminal... now a terminal _emulator_ :insert exploding galaxy brain meme:

I will generalize but by my experience most Americans I have met just can't fathom to pay (= taxed) for some common good. Why should I pay for someone's healthcare when I live healthy and all I see that others are smoking? Why should I pay for someone's free train ticket when I only travel by car? This I saw across all genders, age groups, and political affiliation. Americans have this hyper individualist mindset that no other country does in the planet. It's good for some things like innovation (see the HN crowd) but not necessarily a benefit for the society.

Funnily I know more ultra-religious hispanic and asian people than whites. Somehow the Democratic Party thinks that minority = progressive.

>The problem is that you are creating an echo chamber

Yeah but it's a left wing echo chamber and that's good! /s

Incognito window > bsky > discovery feed > every post is about US politics, Trump bad, rich people bad, Musk bad etc. Same shit just different colors

Bsky is not the answer, the only answer is not to use social media at all. And more or less that applies to HN too.

I yet to find "utility" accounts on Bluesky. I use Twitter to follow news from games, game studios and publishers, news sites, bands, NASA etc. There is nothing like there yet and I don't care about random people (as I don't care about them on Twitter either)

I check time to time but basically it's 0/50
