They managed to cherry pick 3 examples. Good job on them

I find it funny how bad guys in fiction openly expresses that they’re in the dark side. That’s so comical it can’t happen in reality. Right?

Nah, this guy is embracing ”Dark Enlightenment” as his core philosophy.

They will stay silent about his eventual passing. He won’t make any public appearances, but they will insist that he’s alive and well. Anything else is just democrat propaganda.

Occasionally he will show up in AI generated speeches.

It’s crazy that 10 million sales is considered a disappointment. Game companies need to lower their expectations. Not everything can be a Fortnite style success.

I like the flexibility Rust offers with the result type. It makes the error handling part of the control flow rather than an afterthought.

Unwrap means it forces to evaluate the result as an ”ok value”. If it’s an ”error value”, it will crash. It’s a bad practice to rely on it, as it’s one of the most common ways a Rust programs can crash.

Rust offers many options to handle errors that don’t risk crashing. For example, unwrap_or_default, which means ”if it’s an error value, use the default value for this type, such as 0 for integers”

I prefer it over alternatives:

  • Exceptions: ”Oh no! Guess I’ll just die”
  • Error codes: ”If a non-zero error code is returned but no one notices, is it really an error?”

It’s more about the psychological. Setting arbitrary speed limits isn’t enough. If some idiot driver think it’s safe to speed, they will.

I believe Helsinki is aware of this and is one of the many measures they’ve made to limit traffic deaths.

The ads are made by a separate ad agency. Their goal is to do whatever they think will grab the most attention - not what faithfully represents the game. They likely don’t have access to any game assets at all.

What’s amazing is that it seems like it works. If it didn’t, they wouldn’t keep doing it.

Reject GitHub. Embrace Codeberg!

There are some women only communities, like WomensStuff. I respect that women want to have their safe spaces without men inserting themselves into the conversation.

”But what about us??? Men have it difficult to!”

But usually it’s obvious from the title alone that it’s about woman subject.

Sometimes. The community name can give me some context before I participate, if it’s not already obvious from the title. For example, I try to avoid commenting in ADHD communities because I don’t have ADHD.

But in most cases I don’t care. If I see a post I want to participate in, I participate. Lemmy is too small to be segregated into sub communities. Lemmy itself is the community.

 

The UK's new act blocks access to adult content without identification. Turns out, you only need a copy of Death Stranding and a phone to get around it.
