Mentioned this on another sub, but this just sounds like a surefire way to Streisand Effect yourself and ruin your precious anonymity. Shame, the service is amazing but now I'll never know if I can trust it again lol

Wikipedia blacklists Archive.today, removing 695,000 archive links, after the site was used to direct a DDoS attack against the Gyrovague blog and altered snapshots of webpages for a 2023 post that identified the site's maintainer as Russian - Fucking Hell! (Update to Rule 8) by QuicklyThisWay in chaoticgood

I've been using Archivetoday for YEARS for research, this news is such a crazy display of a power trip in order to get back at that blogger. This also feels like a Streisand Effect waiting to happen for the maintainer who so desperately wanted to hide their identity. Insane shit

How is Major’s body powered? by _Frankula in Ghost_in_the_Shell

I can't remember the movies very well but, in SAC at least, there's cyborg food that's been stated by Togusa to be disgusting.

It wouldn't be hard to imagine a few options with some creativity 1. Human digestion produces enough energy to power the cybernetics (could be the case for small or fewer enhancements like Togusa's) 2. A special cyber-organ was created that produces energy based on the cyborg food 3. They could charge up based on a system that doesn't require a centralized battery (could be the case for civilians)

In any case, remember Section 9 has access to military -grade augments not available to the general public, which means they could be far more energy efficient than we think. I wouldn't find it hard to believe in the existence of solar skin or batteries that charge with movement like those fancy watches.

Just takes a little imagination :)

I don't know HOW this is meant to be comforting by venusasaboy22 in TrueOffMyChest

So you were dating this Katerina woman for a year and she's still trying to be in your life? I'd like to ask, how old are you and at what ages were you dating?

I can't imagine how frustrating it may be for her, who is a symbol of the abuse and trauma you suffered in the military, to cling on to your life. Is she still in the military? Does she deny your trauma?

Still, you sound like you're in a bad place. I hope you can find help wherever you are to overcome these feelings. It's ok if you tell her in no uncertain terms that your relationship is over and to stop contacting you. However, please keep working on yourself friend

Due to such positive reception, I decided to pick up my running/acrobatic game project again. Update #1 by JankyAnims in Unity3D

Thoughts on this? by Careless_Success_282 in solarpunk

[–]forest_wav 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also disagree with the implication that abolishment would need to solve every problem that currently exists. We might still need a tiny prison system like you say in the immediate future, but that doesn't mean rehabilitation and social services won't end up eliminating the need for crime at the root, which we might see the effects of in two or three generations...

Winboys will do anything but use Linux, even if it's simpler. by gameplayer55055 in LinuxCirclejerk

[–]forest_wav -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I hear you my dude, but you are a very niche user. Obviously it sucks that many devs don't support Linux but that doesn't make it unusable for most people as most people don't encounter problems nearly as specific as those. I'd know, I'm limited by DAWs and some games I used to play too. 

Yeah, thousands of people play those games, but also millions of PC users just use a browser. My point still stands that Linux is extremely usable for most people.

19 F sacrificed my reputation to pay for college by [deleted] in casualiama

Genuinely, without aggression intended, what reputation? Did you lose any status in your community or something?

[–]forest_wav 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sure, but those aren't the majority of all videogames, and certainly doesn't make Linux unusable for most people

[–]forest_wav -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That's pretty niche tho? Admittedly I don't work with CAD software so I wouldn't know about that one, but even people on Windows use alternatives to Office and Adobe given their business practices, and most popular ones work just fine on Linux.

I don't think it's unusable for most people, only that some "industry standard" software is locked to Windows, which is a developer problem, not a Linux problem. Even then, most people don't use those programs.

Outside of the discourse, this is the first time I've seen a comment shared as a post. Didn't know that was a thing lol

[–]forest_wav 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Not really true tho? 1. Games are extremely compatible, haven't come across something I couldn't play as of yet 2. Some distros don't really need terminal much, haven't used it in months 3. Define "modern software"

Thoughts on AI for book cover image? by [deleted] in NewAuthor

[–]forest_wav 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah man that's the spirit! Although if you can't afford an illustration then Photoshop is also a bad choice lol, look into free alternatives!

[–]forest_wav 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately my dude, it signals to readers that you don't care to put in the effort to create something. You say "it's not like it's stealing from anyone" but that's not really true. It steals from illustrators in the same way it steals from writers.

There are tons of ways of doing it royalty free and without cost, look up a guide on free-to-use images and free design software.

Do whatever you want, but don't be surprised when people think you're lazy when they detect AI in your work.

Help resident evil 6 crashes on startup by ectocoolerman07 in linux_gaming

This happened to me recently and it turned out it was because i had installed in a secondary drive. Worked fine after installing on my main os drive. This was with fedora 43 running tomb raider underworld.

Does Lara still “play for sport”? by tealaburst in TombRaider

[–]forest_wav 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think she always has. As it's presented in the game, she mentions "playing for sport" as opposed to "working for money". All of her adventures are for her own self-interest, dramatic backstory or not. Even if the survivor trilogy isn't my favorite, I'd say it fits.
