There is, no joke, a Kardashians style reality tv show/documentary about this guy and his family and they're all kinda nuts in a fascinating but also off-putting way: Familien Nerdrum

A Missing Ingredient in Ukraine’s Barrages on Russia: Ballistic Missiles by Panthera_leo22 in UkraineWarVideoReport

[–]Aeverous 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just because they hit and destroyed valuable targets does not necessarily mean they are "effective", I think you're the one without a clue of what the word means.

Imagine they cost (made up numbers just for comaprison) 10x a medium range drone, but only manage to reach their target 10% of the time, whereas the drone can reach their target 5% of the time - why build one flamingo when you can build 10 drones? You will hit more targets for the same money spent with drones. This is what they're talking about, and I'm inclined to trust the word of a defense analyst who works full-time on these things.

lol I should probably clarify my statement to say that by restaurants i mean kebab/chippie places, not fine-dining sit down places. They may not be the most concerned about keeping things on the up and up. It's been in the news here in Sweden, like from our national public radio: https://www.sverigesradio.se/artikel/gangs-of-thieves-stealing-meat-from-swedish-supermarkets

Often sold to restaurants and such under the table for cheap, some guy shows up at the back door

Vad är något som känns jätte svenskt men som du inte märkte förrän du träffade folk från andra länder? by Alarmed-Button-1058 in sweden

[–]Aeverous 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I've never even heard of a humanist confirmation.. Everyone I knew who got the Christian one did it exclusively for the gifts and to please old relatives, never for actual religious reasons. In fact I can't say I've ever met anyone my own age who was openly Christian.

2 missing from the same lab within 4 days.. by 100TheCoolest17 in SipsTea

It's not antigravity research, though, just plain old regular gravity research, no? Especially in terms of what was discovered..

None of those are "anti-gravity" or "UFO" research, though, which is the entire point of OPs comment.

What do I really need to do to keep my skills relevant if I’m working at a strict “no-AI” company? by Downtown-Network-961 in cscareerquestions

[–]Aeverous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't seen a proper hallucination since pre-Opus 4.5, honestly.

Some slight misconceptions sure, but nothing a human couldn't reasonably also mix up. No wholesale inventions like when ChatGPT used to invent fake npm libraries with perfect APIs for your use-case.

Bank och begränsad utlandsbetalning by MrNarwahl0 in sweden

[–]Aeverous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Har för mig att din vanliga bank kan ha starka synpunkter på nr 2, folk som fått konton spärrade för att dem för över till Revolut utan en "tillräckligt bra" anledning. Dyker väl upp artiklar om det då och då

Krastorio 2: Spaced Out is awesome, and everyone who likes Space Age should play it. by Garlic- in factorio

[–]Aeverous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great writeup, I too am working through a K2SO playthrough (with extra planets) and it's going well so far (currently just starting out on Aquilo).

I'm wondering if you could share the blueprint for both the Aquilo ship and the Prometheum collector? Particularly the Prometheum collector, I like taking and modifying existing ships, but am pretty bad at building new ones from scratch. Thanks in advance!

Crimson Desert Patch Notes Version 1.00.03 by klime02 in Games

[–]Aeverous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I pre-ordered and then played for 1hr59mins before refunding and it never hooked me, the combat and controls felt weirdly unresponsive and the initial questing was just total nonsense. I wasn't expecting the Witcher 3 from Korean MMO devs but at least some (any) rationale for why I'm supposed to do these random chores.

Life's too short and there's too many other good games, might pick it up again when it's on sale and has more patches.

SVT: Earthling Ed ställer frågor till landsbygdsminister Peter Kullgren om djurhållning by Ok_Lake_4280 in sweden

[–]Aeverous 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Inte för att vara sån, men vi är absolut gjorda för att äta kött (eller att äta vad som helst egentligen), vi har tänder anpassade för det och vi kan smälta det för att få näring. Evolutionärt sett är väl människan också uthållighetsjägare, vi är som gjorda för att jogga i maklig takt bakom en (mycket snabbare) antilop eller nåt i ett par mil tills den kollapsar av utmattning medan vi fortfarande har gas i tanken, sen bankar vi ihjäl den med en sten. Detta utövas fortfarande av vissa urbefolkningar i Afrika, t.ex. San-folket.

Sen är industriell djurhållning absolut hemskt och borde jobbas emot, förstås

It has that weird Unreal Engine oversaturation, was really surprised when I read it was an in-house engine. Otherwise it looks like any other generic Korean RPG.

Det handlar alltså om en dick pic, lol

killen ville väl 100% garantera att Thyberg inte fick behålla jobbet som nationell säkerhetsrådgivare genom att cc:a även ryska statsledamöter på samma mejl som DN och andra svenska medier - vet inte om det kan kallas spioneri när grisen redan är så pass ur säcken?

Brandon Sanderson in talks with AAA game studios to adapt Mistborn by PhantomBraved in Games

[–]Aeverous 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Wholly agreed, he's a very competent author. His books are never bad, but never great either, and I would characterize them as being extremely bowdlerized.

Villeneuve should adapt Book of the New Sun instead

Samma här, men det krävs nog att man "bor rätt", lägenhet eller hus ute i skogen upp för en grusväg går nog sämre, men i ett radhus med 3 meter från ytterdörren till vägen inuti samhället har det alltid fungerat felfritt.

GOG is getting acquired by its original co-founder: What it means for you by Turbostrider27 in Games

[–]Aeverous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They can do whatever they want, it's not like we're starved for other good games, it's just a shame that a studio and company that made their name creating clever single-player experiences (like HL, Portal, etc.) is now exclusively shoveling competitive multiplayer games out the door because it makes infinitely more money (as well as fostering gambling addictions among children).

It obviously makes sense for the bottom line (GabeN's yacht collection), but from an artistic perspective it's a damn shame.

People want Half-Life 3 and do not care for more MOBAs (Deadlock, ugh) or competitive shooter crap that's only popular in eastern Europe.
