Considering this post is actually 8 years old with no follow-up and the newest post is 6 years old... I wouldn't count on it.

In general, while some games still get HDR wrong, I'd read this article more as a time capsule from an age when HDR in gaming was still in its infancy.

Yes, but the american payment processors are the ones in power and actually carrying out these punishments. They could've simply chosen to ignore that group and nothing would've happened.

That just made me check. Apparently my KeePass database currently sits at 325 passwords, although 50 of them sit in the trash.

Until you need to change a password because it's been pwned.

Until you need to adhere to certain password lengths, rules etc.

Until you forget the exact way you abbreviated a sites name.

Just use a password manager.

If you're using it just to translate a few paragraphs of text on a website here or there, then yes, it's much better than what we had before.

For anything complex however it can't even begin to compare with a professionally done translation/localization.

To start with, Japanese is already one of the more difficult languages to localize due to a bunch of linguistic concepts that don't translate well to other languages and need creative solutions that carry over the same intent.

More important however is consistency: Even if an AI translates some of the language ticks of the characters instead of completely glossing over them, it needs to do so consistently and apply the same translation across the whole script.

The same goes for any named items. If there's a "Soul Stone" for example, you need to make sure to call it "Soul Stone" every single time and not "Spirit Rock".

I'm actually a bit impressed this feat was done using a regular office stapler and not an industry stapler.

In a way, focussing on the countries was always ultimately pointless (aside from encouraging votes througj country rivalries). It's almost impossible to not have required countries after the million votes milestone. You'd have to male something very specific like "make dutch the only language in the EU" in order to not make that cut.

It's also less waste if one of your charging methods breaks, as you can just swap over to the other method and might even find ordering replacement parts unnecessary.

Though ideally I'd also like to see more than one USB-C port for even more redundancy.

Huh, that's interesting to hear. I have no intention of getting one, so everything I've heard until now, both online and in person, was that if you wanted one on launch day you were able to get one. Checking out the situation now though, and yeah, it's indeed quite dire.

My current toolkit (as a 3D printing hobbyist) on Linux currently includes:

  • FreeCAD: Takes some getting used to, is a lot stricter, but that might even improve your CAD skills in the long term, as it forces you to think more about what you're actually doing. The closest thing to Fusion360.
  • OpenSCAD: You're basically programming your models. Very powerful if you need parts with repeating sections and/or want something with easily adjustable parameters.
  • Blender: Useful when I have to do some quick&dirty modifications to a model I've downloaded from somewhere.

Gopd yo see the obsession with "solo-devs" wasn't just my imagination. I almost couldn't believe the "solo dev with 9 friends" line was delivered with a straight face and was not meant as a joke.

Well, this explains a whole lot. I've recently paired a few devices in front of the receiver and then moved them into position and wondered why some of them kept dropping off.

Currently I'm using Joplin with Syncthing-backed file system synchronization. I'm pretty pleased with it, as I do like tagging- and Markdown-based systems.

I plan to upgrade to server-based synchronization, but before doing that, however, I wanted to see what other people are using.

Edit: So far I see a slight favor towards Joplin and Logseq, but I totally didn't expect (and appreciate) getting so many different answers.
