Extending history by a lot isn’t recommended. A database add-on is recommended for long term storage.

While I agree that one should support developers of games they enjoy if they are able, I recently tried another playthrough of this game and it reminded me how unpolished it is.

Things like

• Quest NPCs taking very robot-like paths while walking (walk straight for 10 steps, turn right 90 degrees instantly, walk straight 5 steps…) instead of something more natural
• Needing to wait 5 minutes for an NPC to get to a specific spot and/or complete actions before being able to continue conversation. Typically on the fight missions, you’d win the fight, they’d take 30 s to get up, then saunter over (using an unnatural path) to the designated spot, which then took another 10 seconds to activate the speech option finally.
• Pedestrians diving into the road in front of your car instead of away.

Perhaps games like GTA spoiled us, but I just found these too annoying to continue.

Traffic data kind of requires driver tracking data to be sent to the cloud, which usually goes against the philosophy of projects like this. Unless they’re obtaining it from a third party, I doubt it’ll be a feature they implement.

I agree, the assignments will need to adapt to discourage the use of LLMs. Easiest is in-class writing or written exams. Unfortunately that takes away from other class activities.

I remember one of my favourite courses in university had exams where you could bring in any resource you wanted (excluding phones), because the exam was written in a way that required understanding of the core topic, something you can’t simply look up.

A 30 year old friend of mine didn’t know about incognito mode. A certain subreddit popped up, on his projector screen, as a recommendation when we were searching for a sports stream to watch. I don’t think anyone else noticed or would really know what the sub was, but I later casually mentioned this really cool browser feature to use in case you need to search something weird.

I learned one shouldn’t assume that everyone is familiar with all the digital tricks to hide what they’d prefer others not see.

I’ve just started using linkwarden and love it as well. I chose it over Karakeep because it archives a copy of the page so it’s still accessible if the original page is modified or becomes inaccessible in the future.

TBH, the reasoning applied on the kick goal could’ve applied to this one too. It went off Ottinger’s helmet prior to crossing the goal line. I don’t think the fans were out of line at all.

That’s a great point. Doesn’t much matter if there are methods in place if many are complicit in the tyranny.

It’s quite interesting how American’s have always been about their government’s “checks and balances” to prevent tyranny, but all it took was one person who was fine with saying, “fuck your checks and balances” to effectively create a dictatorship, and the whole government is left blabbering, “you can’t do that” with no mechanism to actually do anything meaningful to remove the tyrant.

Like, I’m sure there were “checks and balances” in place for employing directors of these various governments offices, so it’s almost comical that a President can just fire anyone who doesn’t agree with him. I suppose it’s not surprising for a country with very little worker protections, though.

There could be thousands of people in that shower if they were pondering in the rain!

The privacy of what? An odometer reading?

It is until tire manufacturers get an incentive to sell decreased wear tires, likely at the expense of other features. Along with people putting off tire replacement even longer, this would just be asking for a significant decrease in road safety.

One would’ve thought the organization that stands for open source software to be quite democratic. Seems that may not be the case.

I feel the global economy won’t be too bad off. Likely some collateral damage, but the United States on the other hand…

This person forks.

I was going to say, that list is many of the things you can get through Kiwix.

It’s self hostable and some of the resources are really quite interesting.

I think I’ll be picking up this game after reading this. Thank you for sharing your experience.

I’ve always been interested in this game but I had played Far Cry 2, I believe, and remember feeling it was just a chore going through the latter half of the game, so I was turned off of Far cry for a while.

It’s unfortunate they don’t state things like the heating settings used and which trim level of each car was tested. Range can differ on a FWD versus an AWD version.

Seems roughly accurate though. I took my Ioniq 5 for a cold weather test at -25 (105 km/h highway, little wind, heat on a comfortable level for just the driver) and got around 30 kWh/100km.

I’m still going to use my ICE vehicle for any 200+ km trips that are necessary in frigid weather but the Ioniq is the preference for anything else.

Not a big fan of the looks, they’re trying a bit too hard on the rugged angles and it doesn’t mix well with the round aerodynamic curves. I also think it’s better when an electric model is its own thing, developed separately from an ICE counterpart so they take advantage of the differences of being electric (the Hyundai Ioniqs come to mind) and not just be the ICE version with an electric drivetrain.

That said, an electric outback is pretty exciting.

I’m not American, but why would a rental agency need a customer’s SSN?
