Every home alone past 2, every terminator past 2, the latest Matrix practically apologizes for its own existence. Examples are too numerous, the entire hyperreality we exist in is built on pointless repetition and self-cannibalization.

Our world is running out of resources to turn out profit, so it had started digesting itself and feeding us its over-processed and over-produced communion, like a sleezy street-food vendor dousing their meats in spices, so we don't smell how spoiled their paska is.

That is why everything revolves around the nostalgia: it's not us who are stuck in the past, it's our culture experiencing rigor mortis, and we treat it as the final chance to see its original form, as if the chicken in our tavuk durum hasn't been rotting since yesterweek.

Where I am from, when they play this game, every other tap lands on a jaw. Very fun, many friendships were established in the trauma room after these games.

Ok real talk here for a minute. If, by any chance, some dufus has put a lightbulb in their month and need help removing it, grab a sturdy cloth towel, pass it into their mouth through the corners and gently wrap the glass part of the lightbulb in the cloth. When you're done, all corners of the cloth should be hanging outside persons mouth. Their teeth should not touch the glass directly - only through the cloth. This way when the glass breaks, all the pieces will be contained I the cloth for an easy and, if you are careful, harmless removal.

The safest way to crack the bulb once you've wrapped it in cloth is to GENTLY tap the bottom jaw - imagine a 4 year-old landing an uppercut. The glass is very thin and cracks easily, - no need for much force.

Of course, better not get into such a situation in the first place. Stay safe, folks!

You misread the news, gulf stream is not collapsing, - it's one of the small adjacent streams (very small in comparison with gulf). Still bad news though

The big finale with cracks in the screen always gets me crying pearl-sized tears. Even when watching someone else play, just can't help it.

Also, the scene at the lost escape pod in Dark Bramble. Also, the inside of the Interloper. So many hard-hitting moments in this game.

I liked the plan to cut Australia in half North-to-South with an enormous river a lot better tbh.

The wretch, of course! Gonna respec into a mad dervish poet, wielding bloodhound's fang and flames of frenzy once we clear the Academy.

Me and my spouse are getting back into Elden Ring. Created a new character and chosen a build that's enjoyable for both of us, so we sit on a couch, passing the controller back and forth, exploring, doing quests, reading lore and praising the Erdtree. Good Times!

Oh I love these!

I recommend looking into docker-compose. That way you can refer to an nginx image along with your services in one single YAML config.

I've been toying with the same idea. Having Logseq running in server mode + creating an LSP adapter should be doable.

Knowing Typescript is enough to begin and start a career, you are sure to pick up relevant vanilla JS knowledge along the way. There is no way around JS: you'll see it in tooling, debugging, building etc.

Of course you can really focus and grok everything way in advance, but I would argue it's not necessary.

Yes, It takes it's time indexing the graph - and you have to re-index periodically if you want you queries and graph to be in shape. I have a pretty mature KB, and this process takes no more than a few seconds, so it's fine.

Honestly, I love everything about it, except for the app itself. It ties me to the default editor, which is an Electron-based sluggish resource hog. I'd rather have some software scaffolding to work in an editor of my preference, but that is just me. I suspect most people in most use cases won't find it as problematic.

I mostly write notes and technical texts. Started off with Evernote, then tried a bunch of things: Obsidian, Notion, Joplin, ended up using Logseq. IMO Logseq is perfect for people who value their independence from the cloud: it is local-first, stores everything in text, works well with Git.

I would have really appreciated not being tied to it's editor, but so far it's the most convenient app I used for my purposes.

I second Logseq. FOSS, completely local, stores everything in text - works well with Git, lots of plugins - it's almost perfect
