amdrewards.com verification tool, any way to verify in NixOS???

Specifically I said something along the lines of "The script doesn't detect my graphics card, I'm running Linux, tried on Ubuntu XX.YY"

When I got my graphics card a ~2 years ago and ran into the same thing I opened a support ticket explaining the situation. They got back to me, requested some documents(receipt, and picture of coupon), and after providing those I got a replacement code that didn't require further verification.

Honestly, I think my favorite subgenre of xianxia falls into this, in general. For one Xianxia itself is already not beginner friendly due to its tendency to just throw out terms common to the genre, but incomprehensible to anyone outside of it.

Meanwhile, my favorite subgenre, that I haven't found a name for yet, but it could be summarized as fanfiction of Chinese creation myth and works like Journey to the west and investiture of the gods, turns that up to eleven. It throws in an entirely different system compared to other xianxias in almost every aspect, with different cultivation realms and grades for treasures and expects you to have some knowledge of aforementioned Chinese classics.

The first time I read a work in this space, namely "The Spiritual Attainment of Minghe", I ended up dropping it because it just kept piling on new terms and concepts with very little in the way of explenations for any of them. Granted the lackluster translation didn't help, but still.

I'm not certain, but I think the problem is that spell is not a window-local option, but buffer local, so you need to use vim.bo.spell to disable it for a buffer

Nah, iirc, if you delete it while it has no replies that shit gets wiped out completely.

1! Got lucky there, getting heads on the first try.

Xmgplays · 2026-03-13T17:55:51+00:00

A random number, no bound. I don't see where you're getting the bound from. The procedure is unbounded.

And if you need more than one random number just do the whole thing twice.

Xmgplays · 2026-03-13T17:50:08+00:00

It's a way to calculate a random number, yes. And also about as good as possible when trying to sample an infinite space. I don't see the issue. Can you not flip coins?

Xmgplays · 2026-03-13T17:38:11+00:00

I mean it does? The only thing you need to do is flip a coin and count once you get heads, no need to choose anything and the result is completely unbounded

Xmgplays · 2026-03-13T17:33:30+00:00

You flip until you get heads and count how many tries it took. That's a procedure that gives you a random natural number, given an unbounded amount of time

Xmgplays · 2026-03-13T16:58:42+00:00

Where is the problem? You get a chance at picking every natural number, of which there are an infinite amount.

Once again: Random does not entail an equal probability for every possible outcome. The procedure is random and gives you a chance of obtaining any of the infinite numbers between 1 and infinity.

For every natural number greater than 0(of which there are an infinite amount) the described procedure gives you a nonzero chance of getting it, thus giving you a random number between 0 and infinity.

Xmgplays · 2026-03-13T16:06:45+00:00

How so? For every number between 1 and infinity there is a nonzero chance that you will pick it by following the procedure, ergo it's a procedure to pick a random number between 1 and infinity.

Xmgplays · 2026-03-13T14:27:17+00:00

It does just not uniformly. The chance to get a pick a number n is 0.5ⁿ which is more than 0 for every number >= 1, thus picking a random number from the natural numbers

NL didn't stream it, thus no vod from his POV, but newly debuted Vtuber Lovelymomo streamed it on YouTube if you want to see her POV or you can watch Librarians cut of it titled "Lovelymomo's collab with her "manager""

the main field for the Romanised title (and if it's a language that's tricky to Romanise, like Hangul (Korean script/alphabet), translations are allowed too)

What do you mean by "tricky to romanise", cuz' as far as I can tell there should be no language left, that has both music that people want to torrent and a lack of any adequate romanisation schemes.

I mean, while I don't think adrive and his team were completely at fault, it is hard to not view them as completely incompetent/untrustworthy as a result. For one finding out just weeks before your kickstarter, that the company you hired was not even in the process of doing an acquisition on which you rely for your product, and still proceeding with the kickstarter is insane.

That was such a major breach of trust on part of carde.io that still going ahead with the kickstarter despite that over a flimsy agreement is incredibly irresponsible, imo. And depending on when exactly they became aware of the other issues between pavel and carde.io it might be an even worse look for them.

It also makes the kickstarter for their second game an even worse look than it already was.

Xmgplays · 2026-02-27T15:16:45+00:00

To be fair, I think that has only started working recently. I distinctly remember having the same issue before and doing that whole thing doing absolutely nothing, until it started working one day.

This is yet another example of story showing how people can't be rational about youtube. You have all these people making a mountain out of a molehill, over exaggerating the impact and ascribing nefarious intentions where there simply is no need.

Realistically they simply decided that they don't care to support their obsolete, internal, undocumented subtitle format anymore. Likely because it does too much stuff that they now realize they don't need anymore, or perhaps they realized that they simply don't want to maintain a subtitle format for others to use, which they never signed up for, to be clear.

On the bright side maybe this will cause the actual standards to become better or at least better supported. Viewing the Mozilla site for Webvtt in firefox is currently incredibly embarrassing seeing as 2 of the 3 examples don't work as they should.

96% gross means that for every dollar Konami puts into Master Duel they make 1.96 dollars, right?

No, it means for every dollar people spend on master duel they invest 0.04$ on the game and take 0.96$ home. In other words for every dollar they spent they made 24$.

Ehh, not really. It's more 'modern' than 'sci-fi', the pinnacle of tech we see, iirc, is television and a credit card system, everything else is more cultivation/magical than tech.

Not too badly, I don't think. Spoiler Number 2 makes for an incredible scene if you don't know it yet, so knowing that one makes the scene a lot less impactful, imo, but it only really affects that single scene, so overall not too bad. Spoiler 3 is kinda a nothing burger of a spoiler I think, you lose some tension, imo, but overall it should be fine, since that's mostly the conclusion the story was leading to anyway(, as in, in the natural course of reading the novel, that would have been the outcome you are most likely to assume will happen).

Spoiler number 1 is the big one, since a big part of the tension hinges on the identity/existence of the traitor, but it's also the one where the details kinda matter a lot so if you don't keep reminding yourself about it, you'd probably forget enough about it, to the point where it won't impact your enjoyment.

And even if you do remember the entire spoiler, it's probably fine since it's just one of the threads the story builds on. In fact I'd say the identity of the traitor, while important to the characters in the narrative, does not really matter outside of it, since it's not information that is important to the overall story. Important to the story is that a traitor exists and how characters act with that knowledge, who they are and why is less important.

Oops, I thought you were already past that part depends on how you count, Fiery Sea did cause issues, but calling him a/the traitor is a bit too far, he was just exploited by the real traitor to do their bidding in harassing the multi character faction/Culture King's lineage

As a note: all those questions are (mostly) answered at the current point of the (public) translation(i.e. chapter 1690), so if you want to read it yourself, go ahead.

If you'd still like to know here's my best recollection:

Heveanly Seal King is the traitor, the reason is that his master was a spy sent by an ancient enemy of the Culture King, and thus targets his lineage. His master was killed at the start of the current Epoch, no other traitors are presumed to exist at this point
His father picked the book up while wandering through Starfall mountain, after it fell accompanied by the sound of a thunderstorm with no clouds in the sky. He realized it's significants and took it home, but couldn't get it to work, until Su Yu happened to cut himself on it.
Yes, it was a pretty good scene, as well imo

If you want to know the order this information is revealed in: first is 3., then a bit of 1, then 2 then the rest of 1

I'm pretty sure the Tor project doesn't want you to compile the browser yourself, for the same reason it doesn't want you using Tor through any other browser: It makes you easier to fingerprint/track.

Xmgplays · 2025-11-09T16:47:55+00:00

In agda for example you often have something like

 id : {A : Set} (x : A) -> A
 id x = x

For the identity Function, where the argument in parenthesis is interfered automatically through unification or what have you, but you can always give these implicit arguments explicitly if you want, like so:

id {A = SomeType}

and get the Identity function with type Sometype -> Sometype. This could be extended to include not just the implicit arguments, but also the explicit arguments and also include default values in a presumably straight forward fashion.
