Haha, sorry, I was just making a dumb joke

Bend or what?

FC5 even has a joke about not making you climb towers in the tutorial island

Well it goes along with the ethos of other commands suck as touch, finger, mount,…

Shock fork for pranking friends!

Doing my part by not liking shrimp since the early 90s

Stretching the definition of “bad”, perhaps, I say Far Cry 4/5.

It’s the classic game with a map full of repetitive quests: go there and kill that guy, liberate the outpost, climb the tower, etc. It should have basically 0 replayability value, and yet sometimes I just need to switch off my brain and mindlessly do one quest after the other.

I agree. No matter how much a technology will eventually be useful, it’s always turned into a gift beforehand, then there’s the collapse and only after that it settles into a reasonable thing.

See: the dot-com bubble

It’s also a potential catalyst for more countries imposing tolls on the straits they control, the way they used to do in the past. If that ever happens it’d put a huge strain on global commerce.

It’s also possible we’ll see something like a EU law forcing PC manufacturers to offer a choice for the pre-installed OS on devices they sell.

You have such a beautiful way with words

I get the joke, but in Italian it’s called Rinascimento

This would definitely be better. It’ll avoid some scenarios I wrote about in my other comment

This proposal doesn’t sit well with me, for various reasons.

First, how does it work for people who can’t have children? Will they have to submit a test result proving it? What if a medically sterile person has a child by some unlikely happenstance (I’ve read it happens sometimes)? Do they owe back the unpaid taxes then?

I can imagine a scenario where such a person would elect to be sterilised or abort a fetus to avoid having to pay thousands of euros, leading to one less child being born.

Also, what about rich people? Isn’t it time we start to tax them and punish the methods they use to avoid taxes?

Speaking of rich people: suppose they work out the added tax (if they even pay it, that is) is more than the cost of having a child. Would they have one and proceed to completely forego doing any parenting just for the sake of saving money? How will that child grow up?

What about people who can’t have children? Would they have to prove infertility beyond any doubt? How would that work?

Maybe this is addressed in the law, but the article doesn’t mention it.

I honestly have no idea. I just got the controller and I haven’t been tinkering with settings or anything, but I’ll take a look. Thanks!

Disclaimer: the last time I used a controller was more than 20 years ago on a PS1, so this might be entirely user error.

I’ve been playing some Vampire Crawlers with the controller and sometimes the sticks act weird. In the game you move around a maze, using the left one to move and the right one to turn, except sometimes the character moves when I meant to turn and vice versa, as if the two inputs got mixed up?

Again, it’s possible it’s me fucking up, but I’m putting it out there in case someone else noticed something similar.

It’s a simple systemd service that builds your mirrorlist based on its config, which has the same options as the online mirrorlist creator.

I set it up to run once a week and I never ran into any trouble. Worst case you’d have to overwrite the mirrorlist by hand, which is what you already do periodically.

Which can be automated using reflector

I’m guessing that, if they do, it’s done as a fine tune of a general model so it’s output is more in line with the style and conventions of their codebase. And it’s meant for internal use only, not for the general public.
