  • It is not as complicated as it looks! As a long time windows user I'm in the process of getting used to the command line and I love the simplicity and direct way of doing things. For some tasks and small programs it is amazing. Grep for example is something amazing that you couldn't do in a windows type UI.

    For other stuff like visualizing a directory tree you can always use a mouse interface. You're rarely forced to use the terminal.

  • While true, that is misleading. The nuclear waste produced will be radioactive for some decades, in contrast to the waste products from nuclear fission, which stay radioactive virtually forever. Most people think of fission waste if you don't specify and thus make fusion waste far scarier than it actually is.

  • The mean thing about psychosis is that you don't realize it. For him it was reality. Mental health education is key. If you notice someone in their early or mid twenties become reclusive and feel paranoid, notice a professional. As his friends should have done in college.

    Btw, under psychosis people are unfit to plead, if that's the right term. So it's difficult to call him responsible.

  • And someone's job is to control that this person does their job properly. Which is the someone's boss who delegated the task.

    In other words, an executive who assigns a task to someone is responsible to ensure it is done properly.

  • A gun's purpose is to kill people, a car's is not. The analogy is flawed.

    Still, assuming you have mandatory regular inspections of cars in the US, imagine you are an experienced mechanic by profession. Someone lends you a car and says it's safe but you know immediately this rustbucket hasn't been to an inspection in decades. By experience and papers. But you drive in a public space anyways and kill someone due to a fault that would have been found during an inspection. It is 100% your fault.

    As I understand it, following safety procedures would have prevented this death, in the same way nonfunctional brakes would certainly be found during service.

    On a side note, as an electrician who has to sign documents that electrical devices are safe to use, if one of those devices kills someone and I can prove that I followed protocol during testing, I am in the clear. Following rules makes the difference between a tragic accident and negligence.

  • The compression was already explained - I would add that if you're not deep into scene groups, popular repackers are in general a safe choice, i.e. no malware included. Of course it's never 100% safe, but in my opinion safer than picking from a list of torrents what could be the scene release.

    I never had issues with fitgirl and Dodi, maybe other users can drop some more names that have proven to be reliable over a long time.

  • You are not allowed to distribute unreal source. From their FAQ:

    Unreal Engine licensees are permitted to post engine code snippets (up to 30 lines) in a public forum, but only for the purpose of discussing the content of the snippet
