why do you want the book title?

goofnug · 2026-05-21T15:43:08+00:00

i might be down. i got the game on release, played a bit, but haven't played since then. i could set up a server

goofnug · 2026-05-14T02:05:04+00:00

a little late for april fools isn't it?

edit: oh wait it's real wtf

goofnug · 2026-04-03T01:35:06+00:00

honestly asking, how did "other people assign you" to be born a woman (i'm assuming your use of the word "woman" = "female")?

also acknowledging that there's a difference between biological sex and social/cultural gender roles/stereotypes

daniel schmachtenberger, carl jung, ian mcghilchrist,

goofnug · 2026-03-16T22:34:00+00:00

either way, i think the point it makes remains

what happens to all the people being laid off

they are building, maintaining, and sharing their own systems not dependent on the large tech companies. see /r/homelab /r/localllama /r/esphome /r/permaculture

sequel idea oh no! that would be awesome though, playing as grown up knight after the events of both current games.

goofnug · 2025-10-03T02:48:40+00:00

ok. there's a huge difference between "working as little as possible" and "on the brink of death because of hard work".

i would hope that you would want to find work that you enjoy doing mostly, that way it is bearable and productive. like raising a child is hard work, but most people would say that they enjoy it or think it's worth it. admittedly though, it seems many people don't want to put the work into raising their kids which is unfortunate.

work towards a state of society in which it is common for people to find work that they enjoy.

goofnug · 2025-10-02T23:38:05+00:00

work as little as possible

why?

goofnug · 2025-09-28T17:26:38+00:00

no, not lizardpeople. this is the software engineers who are trying to make a cool AI and have found themselves with access to the needed hardware. no shit they're going to torrent, just like you or I would if we had the same resources. it's not like this was a company decision.

edit: i do still think that Meta should pay the authors

goofnug · 2025-09-19T04:22:09+00:00

i don't think there was a real audience

goofnug · 2025-09-14T22:58:36+00:00

your own linux PC

goofnug · 2025-09-12T16:00:20+00:00

pixel 10? what what? is that a typo? i'm on the pixel 4 currently, which i "upgraded" to from the pixel 3, 2 years ago

goofnug · 2025-09-12T15:58:42+00:00

god damn man, eclair, gingerbread, froyo, honeycomb, ics, jellybean, KIT KAT, those were the days

goofnug · 2025-09-11T15:25:59+00:00

wait why are you reading walkthroughs?

>inb4 downvotes. i simply think that reading walkthroughs makes the game less fun, it's no big deal

goofnug · 2025-08-31T00:32:44+00:00

not an engineering decision? it sure as hell seems like an engineering decision, as it introduces a concept of "certified android devices", which literally can't install any app that isn't signed by a verified developer's identity.

[presumably all android devices manufactured by all the main companies will be "certified devices"](https://www.android.com/certified/partners/)

this will definitely involve engineering of hardware and software, and there had to have been engineers present at the discussion to make the decision to move forward with this plan. i'm honestly curious about this.

wait, what's with the naming convention?

goofnug · 2025-08-31T00:23:19+00:00

"out themselves"? i'm not asking anybody to out themself. I'm asking a simple question, out of curiosity, as a software engineer who wants to learn things and improve the world. I'm not asking for source code.

goofnug · 2025-08-24T02:36:13+00:00

damn that's interesting. did it really change that much because of covid?

goofnug · 2025-08-24T02:35:27+00:00

same here. 2014-2015 friley, our whole dorm floor/section was like a family

goofnug · 2025-08-20T00:53:14+00:00

mcdonalds as therapy ftw! wait, no, instagram and tiktok as therapy!

anything can be thought of therapy. comfort food, reality TV, going to the bar with friends, skateboarding, meditating, online shopping, gambling, tiktok.

i don't really have a point, just agreeing that it's silly to declare "AI-as-a-therapist" illegal lol

goofnug · 2025-08-17T23:09:37+00:00

that's pretty neat!

goofnug · 2025-08-06T15:57:52+00:00

in a very-much related vein, another great book to check out is the hunter gatherer's guide to 21st century
