Shows how much multinational media companies care about their non-english audience.

My suggestions were limit number to 5 user applicable tags, communities having a whitelist of tags, and an instance's slur filter applying to tags.

I do think it's very interesting, having a visual script to succinctly describe a base-20 system. The example problems were very softball, I get it to explain the function but I don't know how helpful it would be for multiplying and dividing high one digit numbers.

But for adding and subtracting (which is helpful for most everyday needs) it's quite intuitive, because the W is equal to the sideways slash and the sideways M is equal to the vertical slash.

Ah OK, so the cancellation/change fee is the price of the new ticket, haha.

Yes, I get it. I included the example to confirm if that would be apply correctly and to assist my understanding.

It would be a RedditMigrationMigration magazine!

My commits comments end up like this most of the time

Rentlar committed: Fixed a, b, c, changed file x, added y improvement, deleted unnecessary z

That video is hilarious. The turret and barrel look like this after firing:

Many payment providers would want websites to implement CAPTCHA for blocking spam and fraud attempts.

I'm sorry, but you're just going to have to walk to a store and pay in cash if you don't want to have any data tracking done at all. Online you'll often have to pick one or the other: data tracking, or flimsy security/data protection. The phone solution is appropriate in my humble opinion, but you're welcome to hold your own views on your principles. If you're hard set against a company tracking ANYBODY via 3rd parties to that level, then I bet you will be very hard-pressed to ever find a computer through an online marketplace from ANY company that will fit that bill perfectly and suits your other needs.

I don't know if there are European regulations that prevent it but I could see the cancellation fee being like 25€, lol.

Neat idea and concept. I have a question about it.

When you upgrade something in a way that strictly adds to it (in a functional sense), is that still a destruction and creation? I suppose in some way you destroy the idea of what it was before the upgrade, and afterward you have created the upgrade state. Is this what is meant?

As a quick tangible example, if you have a computer with 2x 8GB RAM sticks and 4 RAM slots, then add an additional 2x 8GB, nothing physically was lost but you lost the empty slots that could have increased to a different amount with other RAM sticks, until you remove/replace the sticks. I'm not the best with philosophy so I'm using this example for my understanding. You can tell me if this is consistent with your premise.

I mean, go ahead, fork it, I can't stop you from doing that.

The reason why people still use the main fork is that at least someone is there fulltime making sure lemmy works. Now all the issues that were in Lemmy are now the responsibility of you and the people you convinced to develop for your fork to fix. On top of that, problems caused by the fixes you made also have to be fixed.

I mean it shouldn't be a surprise to any American, slavery is alive and well and explicitly allowed in the constitution. US Federal labour laws aren't that great for free people either.

The fact that American corporations and business are permitted since 2012 to

explore competitive bids and higher profits through our high-quality, competitively priced labor

makes me sick. Between the country's treatment of prison labour and immigrant labour, exploitation of workers for profit really puts the U.S. on par with many 3rd world countries.

Although my initial thought was that I could stay in this role and establish a proper process so that these mistakes don’t happen again...

I wouldn't trust most of the Ontario Progressive Conservative MPPs to be able to establish it in a way that doesn't unreasonably favour their donors...

Have a 2 hour phone chat (with spouse?)

Buy a note book and write a diary to remind yourself of everything that has happened in the last year.

I love it! Bear in mind that depending how you distribute them, not everyone will appear appreciative of the cards. Some will not think much of it at all. That's okay, if you can at least brighten one person's mood and have them believe a little more in their self-worth and that random kindness exists, is something good you are doing for the world.

Most paper is degradable anyway you can look for more eco-conscious card-stock if you want, but it's not as important as the act of giving it out itself, for me at least.

I'm not trying to throw shade on people wanting to spend money for an immersive experience, just that there are fewer of them with that setup and that number is what matters from a software sales perspective.

I'm simply stating why FromSoft wouldn't be compelled to implement such a feature other than out of the goodness of their heart. People with insane setups spend a lot of money but FromSoft wouldn't see a penny more than someone who buys and plays the same game with a simple setup.

Many factors...

First: Can your GPU handle that at better than low quality 20 fps? If you have a gpu that can handle 4K fine, then it "should" be able to do 3x 1080p monitors (because there are 4x as many pixels in 2160p than 1080p). Playstation and Xbox are pretty much right out of question (no custom controller support likely anyway), and 3x 1440p or 3x 4K is most likely out if you don't have a top end GPU. Having a wider field of vision may need beefier CPU power to calculate bullet physics and other things in view as well.

Second: How many Armored Core players would have the money and need to buy a custom controller, a highend GPU and 3 monitors (assuming 1080p), back of the napkin math says 2200 CAD = 1620 USD? While support for crazy setups are nice but the developers aren't really in a rush to add support for stuff that at most a few hundred people worldwide will make use of. Racing sim and other simulator fans have the audience there, I don't know if ACVI is billing itself as less arcadey and more simulation.

However, if mod support is there, perhaps interested fanatics would add multimonitor, custom controller and HUD support.
