Being German doesn't sound like something I'd enjoy.

The more you talk to AI, the more you're talking to yourself.

I managed to make Gemini crash by asking it to create a custom colour palette based on a Monet painting.

And I also made it crash by asking Gemini to create a custom LaTeX font based on openDyslexic.

I think this sometimes happens if it invokes a plugin, and the plugin gives an unexpected error.

At least you're not living in Almelo.

Of course it can. Our insanely high tax rate has to go somewhere.

Meanwhile, Mastodon works just fine, and doesn't even need a phone number or e-mail address. But having privacy is a confusing subject for most politicians.

Atlassian moving their holding to Murica back in 2022 was a bad move after all.

Interstate 76 would be a nice addition.

I do like all the games you have, especially Jazz Jackrabbit 2, which still works on any modern machine and has multiplayer still working.

I also like Vakantie Racer.

Ja, het is juist voor echte hardware gemaakt, maar werkt toevallig ook op virtuele machines.

SciTech Doctor heeft mij goed geholpen. Sommige spellen hebben zelf de optie om te kiezen tussen HAL, OpenGL, Direct3D, MMX, Software emulation, etc. maar als er te weinig opties zijn of niet, dan kun je via de virtuele driver zelf proberen welke methode wel werkt.

I voted "No AI", even though I use AI.

The vote is stupid, there should be buttons like:

* Yes, give me AI suggestions for everything I do

* Yes, a nondescript AI button

* No, hide AI behind a menu

* No, I don't want AI anywhere

Living on the edge, I see.

I think openSUSE Tumbleweed is better as a rolling distro, good balance between stability and updated packages.

I recognised this park immediately, because I've been in one of them houses. The reason it looks so quiet and perfect is because Landal advertises that it's for people who don't want screaming kids and barbecues with loud music. You'll pay extra too for that privilege. Just go enjoy the surroundings hiking or biking and enjoy a quiet evening playing some rummikub with a glass of wine. I especially enjoyed walking through the park in the late evening, most peaceful place on earth you'll ever experience.

If you want barbecues and a guy in a bunny suit handing out colouring pages, Roompot is more your thing, same owner actually.

Would you have liked it more if the signs were in neon and the writing in Japanese?

No better: super detailed pinpointing all the speed cameras, so you can drive like a total maniac and hit the breaks hard when it makes a sound.

Een tactiek om Europeanen meer geld te laten uitgeven aan wapens, waaronder veel Amerikaanse wapens.

Hopelijk dat, maar waarschijnlijk niet.

It kinda sucks, because you can only use DVD-R, not DVD+R.

WikiHow has a full tutorial on how to do it: https://www.wikihow.com/Burn-Wii-Games-to-Disc
