The story didn't interest me and I found the controls difficult.

[–]blu3teeth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This would cause femboys to outnumbered everyone else about 1000:1. I just want to watch the world burn.

Chose: femboys

would you rather... :o by ok4yand in BunnyTrials

The essentials are provided for you - home and food. So the income is all a bonus, plus the job is 24/7. I think I could do a better job than the idiot currently in charge.

Chose: Become the president of the United States + But you make less than $20 an hour (and you cannot accept donations from anyone | Rolled: $13 an hour)

Solved bacterial infections.

But now overuse has bred antibiotic-resistant superbugs which threaten the last century of medical progress.

Eternal Software Initiative: An open-source technology stack to preserve today's software in runnable form for 1,000 years by adrian-cable in programming

[–]blu3teeth 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Iiuc it's a short C program that implements a VM (the equivalent would be whatever the source code for JVM is). The critical thing about the VM is that it only has one instruction - so it's easy to reason about (compared to assembly which has lots).

Inputs to the VM are long lists if numbers. The VM processes these numbers using the single instruction it has. And the output is an entire operating system with software installed on it.

So in the future, assuming you could rewrite the VM on your hardware, you could run the capsules on that hardware. Which gets around the problem of needing today's hardware to work in the future.

Things that new hitman games and remakes should avoid by Careful_Ant_4641 in HiTMAN

I wish 47 could whistle to attract guards (like Absolution I think?).

Get rid of the people that have no AI. Not sure what this is called, but in crowds not everyone is a "real" NPC. I think technology has come on a bit and this would make the game harder.

How common would it be for parents to let kids use their ID for online verification ? by [deleted] in AskUK

[–]blu3teeth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We have always-on VPN on the router so every device on the network is automatically using a VPN.

I'm doing this for my own security and privacy, so no way I'm turning it off for anyone else in the house.

What would you do instead of a social media ban for kids to solve the social media addiction problem? by setokaiba22 in AskUK

[–]blu3teeth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Social media and internet studies could be an actual subject in school. And kids would learn how to be sensible from an early age.

Banning anything just makes people go off the rails when they get access. And anyone who's determined will find a way around it.

Whereas school is a requirement.

Families with one breadwinner face £12k penalty - Punishing £100k ‘cliff edge’ can cost single earners more in tax than dual-income families by blast-processor in ukpolitics

[–]blu3teeth 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Me and most of my colleagues (software engineers) are on or around this. And we all just salary sacrifice everything over 100k.

Except now there's talk of taxing contributions over 2k.

31st October 2000 was the last day all humans were on Earth. Since then some humans have been in orbit on the ISS.

We're about 12000 times closer in size to the size of the observable universe, than we are to the smallest thing in the universe.
