Enabling the ability for purchasers to specify an arbitrary server to connect to would require a design change compared to how most games are recently. That feature used to be standard in the early years of online gaming.

We had online-only multiplayer games in the early 2000s with self-hosted servers supporting over 60 players per map. It’s absolutely possible to do better with today’s tech.

How does that work since lactose isn’t a protein? Is it just that the affected people assumed they were intolerant of lactose, but it was actually the protein?

Agreed, and it’s not like clean energy generation and good wastewater treatment are impossible - just more expensive. Perhaps 10x the normal cost per bag would pay for the difference?

Thank you for the difficult public service you do.

So which cameras can be used to overcome normal face coverings? https://piped.video/watch?v=yRFeS72IM6M

The wealthy ones didn’t need to resort to veterinary medicine - their doctors were willing to be paid to prescribe the human version of those drugs. Legitimate drugs that save many lives, just not helpful against viruses like covid.

Did the Linux gods see what the hardware gods had going on and decide to get in on the action?

Alternative reasons (not mutually exclusive):

• The organization has outdated policies that make delivering changes difficult.
• The systems used in development and delivery haven’t been invested in enough to automate repetitive steps, optimize workflow, and increase safety of changes.

Again, complex changes are obviously going to take more time, but if the simplest changes take significant time or effort then something is wrong.

If you run into this again, maybe you can use pursuit of efficiency to get proof?

“If we really want to find out why, we can use a Value-stream mapping approach to analyze the process. We might even identify additional specific opportunities where we’re able to speed up!”

By documenting all steps in a process and timing each one you’d be able to identify where the difference is, and whether a critical step is being skipped. It really doesn’t have to take much time or effort. If management can’t be bothered to make that happen, then they must not really care about efficiency.

Even more strawman arguments. Read back through the comments - I never said anything about fire extinguishers, and am not defending anyone who is lax on safety.

Most enthusiasts are very serious about safety but know that the implementation details are situational.

Accidents are also very rare. If we want to try to reduce the small percentage who don’t take safety seriously, we should start early and make a safety course part of everyone’s schooling.

Is English not your first language? ‘Their’ in that context refers to the person you were replying to: SupraMario.

And as far as Midwesterners and more specifically my political beliefs; while we Minnesotans have a proud tradition of independence, we’re not all Jesse Ventura. Our most popular party is the DFL, which is somewhat distinct from the national Democrat party, and we’ve supported (D) presidential candidates more than any other state. I’m more in the camp of ‘If you go far enough left you get the guns back’. Every gun club I’ve been a member of has had strong membership support of safe handling and storage, but what that looks like differs based on multiple factors such as whether there are children in the household. Not drinking before or during shooting is often in the club’s bylaws.

Really? You shouldn’t have to put in much effort to realize that not every adult has children or has family with children.

The strawman is that you assume children would ever be in their home. If the guns are behind locked doors away from children, they’re secured.

In most of the US, there is no legal requirement of registering a weapon to a person. I think you’re confusing that with the Wisconsin law restricting the unsupervised use of dangerous weapons by those under 18.

They have already censored entire accounts at the request of governments.

Decentralized isn’t the right word to use for a system like this.

Even though BS is going to appoint multiple different volunteer moderators (aka “Trusted Verifiers”) for this system, ultimate authority and control are entirely centralized with BS.

when the person you troll gets mad, you report them

This comes off like “NSRXN made them break the rules” which is ridiculous.

People need to be responsible for their own actions.

Have the AIs fax-DoS the health insurance companies with nonsense Luigi memes

What subject, and was it time limited? If there was any chance of not finishing in time I’d probably leave those until last.

Based on that logic, maybe reworking it to use ‘toxin’ instead would get it boosted…
