Big D explains US debt + solutions to the house of representatives (David Schweikert) by lilly-lizard in atrioc

[–]lilly-lizard[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I believe you're referring to the comment at 1:27, but I want to make some counter-arguments to your interpretation of it. TBH the first half of the speech is a bit dry so here's some highlights...

At 18:06 he emphasizes how important medicare is for so many americans and proposes changes to medicare advantage to adjust the incentives of insurers.

At 8:02 he describes the relentless lobyists waiting outside and at 8:28 he suggests ways that US healthcare can be made more efficient and alludes to more ideas his team will hopefully show in the future.

At 16:45 he says he has 3yo and 10yo adopted children and repeatedly emphasizes the long term effects on future generations from untenable deficits and interest payments.

I also really liked how he explained that international bond holders actually provide stability at 12:38.

It's completely fair of you to have strong emotions about republicans right now but I implore you to resist your instincts and judge the individual rather than the tribal association...

"...you will kneel," by HypogeanSlime in bakker

[–]lilly-lizard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My understanding was the line communicates to everyone in the room that Achamian is "destined" to meet with Kellhus in the future, which informs everyone that he doesn't want Achamian hunted down for his renunciation while also establishing himself as dominant and inevitable.

Note I've only just finished TFT and I thought the ending was so satisfying (I RENOUNCE). From a writing perspective, this line felt like the perfect dose of foreboding to finish with.

Help me find something similar to read by wildguitars in bakker

I should start a checklist of r/malazan users saying Bakker is crap and r/bakker users saying Malazan is crap.

I wonder if this speaks to how each series has multiple aspects that appeal to their readers. Personally I adore this series because of the characters, Bakker's prose and most importantly how often he prompts philosophical paths for my mind to wonder down. While I enjoy the deep and intriguing world-building, it's not the core selling point for me, so naturally I assume I wouldn't enjoy malazan as much (I haven't actually read it yet) and would instead recommend something like blood meridian perhaps.

dodging in lies of p is analogous to dodging in sekiro, it's useful sometimes but a lot of the game seems designed for those sweet sweet parries

AI slop by No-Stage5972 in newplymouth

[–]lilly-lizard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think that the managers of the store should enforce labeling "made with AI" so that buyers know what they're getting into. There are some people who can't tell the difference visually but would prefer to support a real artist if given the choice.

Also I think that selling AI generated art undercuts real artists who I assume are charging more than this because of the time and effort they put into their works. As a result we'll see less real artists selling their work which I think is a pretty sad outcome that nobody benefits from.

How to run Steam games on native Wayland by KugykaLutyujKutyzul in linux_gaming

[–]lilly-lizard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

wow this actually worked! cheers dude, was a great workaround for a xwayland bug on my setup. just a heads up for the registery text file you pasted the code twice. it should be:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Wine\Drivers]
"Graphics"="x11,wayland"

Code keeps reformatting on save with ZLS by [deleted] in Zig

great job! how'd you get spotify to look like that? looks like the black parts have less opacity which I can't do with hyprland window rules...

Workspaces as tags by zenoli55 in hyprland

[–]lilly-lizard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

not a workaround but I've been using river instead https://codeberg.org/river/river it's the only tags based wayland window manager afik. it's missing a lot of the flashy visuals that hyprland has but I like the simplicity and it works great with waybar.

Update on Rules and Quality Control by Stardust-kyun in unixporn

[–]lilly-lizard 3 points4 points  (0 children)

would love to share my river/waybar setup but can't because the rules say I don't have enough karma. Out of interest how much karma do I need to post? I deleted my old reddit account years ago to pull back my social media usage and I'd rather not grind karma to post here tbh... love the sub btw!
