I don’t bother with those unless I’m specifically going for all the orbs. Like, I’ll get the closest one, but I don’t bother with the one you mentioned or the one that makes the boss spawn. There’s usually enough health to be had once you know your formations, and if you want mondo amounts of health, there’s always the heart mage trick. I don’t go out of my way to dig gold in the mines for the same reason. You can win without doing it, and it just breaks up the flow too much imo.

Noita is probably my favorite game of all time, and it’s an excellent rougelike.

Ahhh, I’d love it if I could tie that in with a Bluetooth OBD dongle and Home Assistant. It’d be awesome if I could set up a BLE proxy in my carport to automatically update stuff. It’d be especially handy if I could get alerted about check engine codes.

Hey! Boeing! There’s a saying that’s popular amongst lawyers—“if you must eat crow, do so while it is fresh.”

The uh, crow is already pretty fucking old. Best to just eat it now before you get it shoved down your throat by the DOJ.

Eh, I have a low tolerance for this kind of bullshit. I know what I like and what I don’t like. I went through their posting history before blocking them, and I found that the subjective quality of their contributions failed to outweigh my irritation towards them. To me, it’s better to just block them and never risk seeing comments like this from them again. There are a bunch of people on this site who I’d rather interact with.

As a bonus, they’ll only ever have one shitty passive aggressive comment from me to deal with.

Ah, excellent, thank you! I love it when shitheads make themselves obvious so I can block them. Toodles~

Isn’t less disease better than more? I won’t argue with you about sex or other things that people have hangups about, but HIV is also transmissible through blood. There are people who got HIV and developed AIDS for reasons that are innocent in any reasonable context. If you’re a first responder or good Samaritan, doctor, nurse, or find yourself in some other context where it’s possible for uncontrolled mingling of blood, you’re at risk of contracting HIV. If particularly vulnerable people can be completely protected, then everyone’s odds will improve.

I don’t know the tone or content of your previous messages, but I appreciate that you removed potential misinformation and took the whole exchange as a learning opportunity rather than digging in your heels.

I also appreciate that @girlfreddy@lemmy.ca simply asserted the facts present in the article as a part of their initial message. It’s nice to see positive interactions develop out of a less-than-ideal starting point.

Someone beat me to the punch about the true meaning of Oracle, so I’ll instead link this wonderful video about why you shouldn’t make the mistake of anthropomorphizing Larry Ellison: https://youtube.com/watch?v=-zRN7XLCRhc&t=1981s

Which mouse and which distro? I’m genuinely curious. I’ve plugged my MX Master 3S directly into my work laptop running Arch many times and have never had to do anything to make it work.

I honestly don’t know. I do know that people regularly reference the Chomsky Hierarchy (or works based off of it) when writing FSAs or parsers, since the class of grammar dictates what you can use. A FSA can’t be used to completely parse a context-free grammar (or anything above it). The thing about parsing HTML with regex is an example of that, and is what first keyed me in to the different types of grammars.

I find it interesting that the article makes no mention of his linguistic work (edit: this is not a criticism of the article, just an idle remark. It need not be mentioned, given the political focus of the article). The Chomsky Hierarchy has had a massive impact on the world of software development, for example. If you’ve ever written a regular expression, you’ve used his work.

I’m genuinely interested in how government involvement increases the cost. I honestly don’t know. Like, is it dealing with zoning and permitting? I hope my good-faith intent is coming through here, I’m not just trying to bait an argument.
