how does it compare to yt-dlp?

is this a jojo reference?

the goldberg-steamcrack supports multiplayer. https://gitlab.com/Mr_Goldberg/goldberg_emulator

I only tested it in lan, and it works great. Not sure if it works online, too. You may need hamachi.

And of course: online multiplayer with randos is probably not worth it, as others have pointed out. On one hands it’s probably a bitch to set up. On the other cheating is probably rampant.

But only temporarily

but is it?

I thought the temporal improvement would be for everyone who already used the high way (because they will get to their destination a little bit faster). And for the few extra people, who start to use the highway but didn’t use it before, the improvment will stay.

When you add a new lane to a road, people think that the traffic will be easier there, so they take that route instead of their normal one

so for these people the new lane will create marginal improvement, right?

talking to clients

you want him to define features and deadlines?

soft failures add complexity and ambiguity to your system, as it creates many paths and states you have to consider. It’s generally a good idea to keep the exception handling simple, by failing fast and hard.

here is a nice paper, that highlights some exception handling issues in complex systems

providing source is good form in every context

it’s safe to assume there are similar issues in closed source. A big part of the snowden leaks was about how NSA could access lots of data at will. It wouldn’t surprise me if they also could execute code.

Also there is stuxnet. But I am not sure, if there were intentional backdoors, or only some “natural occuring” RCE.

There are many “visual tropes” like this. When I am watching anime with friends, we like to call them out. We even made a bingo at one time for re-occuring tropes.

There’s another one of characters holding a sword with a super exaggerated perspective so the tip is close to camera and the character is farther away

That’s sunrise stance

some others are

• gainax stance
• SHAFT necksnap
• jojo pose

There is also a big list at tvtropes (not all anime though) https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/StockPoses

“sudo MacOS” sounds like a legit way to describe “gnome+ubuntu”

KDE on steamdeck, because it came preinstalled

Gnome on work-pc, because it came preinstalled

also gnome on notebook, because the multi-workspace thing works very nice OOTB in gnome

One’s an active decision

There are not so many quality notebooks without any brand-logos on them.

Also wearing a brand-logo when you have the choice not to, is kinda cringe.

Because megacorps are at least “smart enough” to pretend they aren’t trying to take over the world.

there are enough examples for corps doing evil things. You hear about them less often, because they cover their tracks and the outcry is generally smaller than when governments do similar things.

Whereas governments have a tendency to justify a lot of horrible shit for righteous reasons.

corps justify a lot of horribble shit for financial reasons. Is that better?

who else should be a significant backer for an open source project? google? microsoft?

That’s still not how governments work

It would be nice if it worked like that, but we both know it doesn’t

To become chancellor you have to swear an oath on the “schwarze Null”. that you forgot what you did during the largest tax-scam in history

I just want to point out, that what you are saying sounds good in an ideal world. But the realitiy looks different. (I actually typed out some points, but then I remembered that I don’t want to engage in yet another lengthy internet-debate, that ultimately comes down to personal preferences and philosophy)
