Thanks, Obama.

Haha, I also played along until the wordle thing.

That does sound really comfy.

“Hey, we already got that whole eating mushrooms thing going, what if Mario was actually literally tripping fucking BALLS in our next game?”
“Nah man, we can’t market that to children…”
“We’re just gonna call it ‘wonder seeds’ or some shit, idk” “SOLD!”

For real though, any excuse for the teams at Nintendo to unleash their whole creativity is a plus in my book.
I’m not preordering out of principle, but the game looks great!

This was one of the main selling features for me (before I tried it and experienced all the other killer features). I’ve experienced a bad case of vendor-lock before where it was hell to export my data. So having it all available in plain text at all times is really reassuring.

Big fan of Obsidian. Especially for written notes. If you are working with a lot of images I’d give its canvas feature a try. I’m not using it personally, but I think it might fit the bill.

My thought exactly every time the little nagware window pops up in sublime text (obviously from the same creators as sublime merge).

“Would I like to pay for this awesome piece of software? Yes. Do I have the money for that right now? No.”

“Main character energy” is a great way to put it. If I came across someone wearing these I’d have some assumptions…

Isn’t it free if you’re okay with using it in light mode?

I mostly use the CLI but when I used to use PyCharm the JetBrain git GUI was the shit. The closest to it in a standalone program I’ve seen is maybe sublime merge, which is also great.

Yes. “The internet never forgets” is actually a thing.

Okay… it was, though.

I think it’s extremely hard to tell what people would prioritize. If you aks them hypothetically, everyone probably is some green warrior for mother earth. But then when push comes to shove, the industry will give them the choice between a flagship phone, glued all around, and a phone with a removable battery with all the greatest specs from five years ago. Of course many will chose the glued one, and then some people will be like “welp, the free market has decided”. 🤷

edit: typo

Very cool! I used to think that no one would care when researchers would protest these things by striking. But I guess anything that hurts the well oiled money making machine that is modern academia (not for researchers though, of course) gets noticed. Seeing it done for real is great, and even more so that it was successful!

The machine needs to be fed.
