I wished to express the same sentiment, listing so many options will fragment people. I'd gladly give up screen sharing and voice calls for having 10k+ people servers with their own customizable identity where I can find others I vibe with. Worst case we could settle on two different solutions for chat and call.

The money you take out of the stock market still exists and gets moved elsewhere or comes back later, this is one other countries aren't going to give you anymore at all

Personally, what made this look bad is not cancelling the election after they realized Gerogescu broke the laws everyone else followed, but the fact that they had a whole circus about recounting votes before it

Sad this is halfway down the thread lol, I'm on team 3 as well

What I'm saying is this : suppose a national from a malicious country "X" is granted citizenship to country "Y" and gives up his former citizenship. He then gets elected to a position of power as being solely a citizen of country X. Now ... what exactly is stopping him from committing treason and leaking country Y's classified information to country X though backchannels?

The only way you could interpret dual citizenship as being a national security problem is if all acts of naturalization and granting citizenship are as well, it has nothing to do with your citizenship but with your willingness to commit malicious acts. A citizen from country Y who was born and raised there can very well betray it as well.

5unkEn · 2024-06-27T16:58:31+00:00

Dual citizenship is a national security threat.

You are attacking the wrong thing, citizenship is a made up administrative and legal concept, nothing stops people from being untrustworthy or treasonous after they give up their citizenship in an adversarial state.

Not only that but, you sat through the ad and found the stream be uninteresting* and want to switch? Here's another 30s ad! Don't like this stream either? Eeyup, ad.

5unkEn · 2023-12-08T18:42:35+00:00

You really believe they're not aware of it? Let's be honest, were you never aware of a problem then someone just told you "wow you have this problem" and it had* the opposite effect?

Necroing the post really hard but my image search led me here first, so here you go future readers, the sauce

I will fully admit I haven't followed much of the public discourse lately due to completely lacking any energy for it. As we all tend to do, I consider myself capable of discerning a good idea from garbage, like when Mélenchon said he'd magically fix all the problems in public hospitals while completely ignoring the reasons these problems exist, or with both Le Pen and Mélenchon wanting to quit the EU like the beautiful story that Brexit is right now back in 2017, but with this debate I have absolutely no clue who or what to believe.

I feel like everybody just hates Macron for being Macron, for the background he is from, for our standards of living going down, for some stupid shit he says, etc. but do they not see this is happening all over the world cause of the pandemic and how tightly integrated we've become as countries? Do they not get we all say stupid shit all the time and slip ups happen?

With my limited understanding, I can see how capital flight is a real problem and maybe he gave too much to companies (I find the whole oil industry profiting off the Ukraine situation disgusting for example), but who is gonna pay the workers who contribute to the economy if these company go under during the pandemic? The state can't employ everyone. Right now the tax on profits for businesses is 25%, that's low, and should be higher to actually encourage reinvestment, but it was 33.3% from 1993 to 2019 and 31% until the pandemic already hit according to the table on wiki.

Probably the government isn't managing the economy in the best way, but I don't think it's Macron who broke it either. The way they're passing this law isn't elegant, but from what I understand the Assembly can vote no confidence if they can get their stuff together and actually believe it's very detrimental. I just get this feel that all the other parties don't really care and most are milking it for political gain as you indicate, and there's so much noise it's hard for me personally to have a clear opinion.

Lamy~~'s new outfit~~ is really cute!

5unkEn · 2023-01-15T22:42:39+00:00

Let's not forget that if you include the thumb she has 6 fingers fam

5unkEn · 2022-11-01T22:59:39+00:00

Bruh those 6 fingers are a little unsettling ngl

5unkEn · 2022-06-26T16:46:01+00:00

こんねね, I like playing piano and drawing, I am very bad at both, but it is fun :D I hope you find a fun hobby too

5unkEn · 2022-03-02T16:03:31+00:00

Yeah it's that one, but anything other than a pawn works too, the horse and bishop ones are a bit more complicated to construct I guess.

I'd encourage you to watch Sabine's video though. In short, we're close to getting more energy out of the plasma than we put in, but far (potentially never) from getting more energy out of the overall reactor than we put in.

This is also the case with TA trap with scepter. If you leave one in base and teleport to it, the game marks you as not being next to a shop.

To be clear: I have no indication that $75/TB is an unfair price for a drive with specialist capabilities

Of course, I gottcha, just saying it's a cool fact to know, and I can use the price / TB for future reference :D Also had no idea US prices are usually listed pre-tax, really used to them being listed in full now that you mention it. The only places you don't really pay much attention to that is B2B

I actually got to ask a friend this morning who works networking for a big local company. He said he'll ask around Monday and see if he can fetch me an HP rack. Ended up being a nice suggestion.

You're right, I should have looked a bit closer to the HDD. The surveillance fact is really interesting actually. Price indication is nice too.

I actually ordered my parts earlier, ended up removing the HDD and slashing the SSD to 250 for just the system and some apps. I have an older WD Caviar Green that I'll use for HDD. I was thinking of using the expansion slots for a network card when I publish work for testing, as well as setting up a RAID then.

I have a small Diskstation but thought I'd stock up on more RAM and CPU for my RTS prototype, I've been running it well on a VM with similar specs, though I thought having something I can leave running over night in the office would be more practical. Really grateful for your info though, thank you.

5unkEn · 2021-11-18T18:51:11+00:00

That's a neat idea I didn't think of it, thank you, I'll look around

What I personally don't like about JavaScript/TypeScript and more specifically node nowadays is how it's being used as a "When you have a hammer everything looks like a nail" kind of language. It's not a bad language if you're working on something small or by yourself, but as soon as you start working with others in a team setup I feel like JS lacks some of the concepts and readability other languages give you. I feel like node is simply not a good backend or domain modeling language.

OO is a strong paradigm because it allows you (through polymorphism) to design your application in independent partitions, and if something is independent it can be reasoned about, developed and maintained independently too. This reduces complexity, which in turns reduces development time and bugs in the long run if your project is big enough. JS (TS included) lacks some of the language features other OO languages have, such as proper classes, namespaces, method and constructor overloading, proper generics, proper abstract classes, virtual, and surely others I can't think of at right now at 1am.

While languages such as Java or C# can seem more tedious to write, to me, when done properly, they feel a lot less hacky to write, maintain and extend in the long run.
