Tampopo is pretty great, and, I feel, pretty obscure as well.

Man, I’d never read “Stop talking to each other and start buying things” before, that’s a hell of an article.

Or you could just… disable the eshop on a regular, unmodded switch through parental controls? I mean, nothing against modding but you hardly need a modded switch to block “pushy” sales and subscriptions.

I thought it was really good! It’s got some great QoL improvements that I wish they had backported to the base game, honestly. Also, it addresses some flaws in the end of the base game, making it a clearer what was supposed to have happened (while still leaving some stuff open, it is a Xeno game after all).

Also, I won’t spoil anything but if you’re a long-time fan of the series there’s a lot to like.

I finally finished Xenoblade 3 and Future Connected, so now I’ve finally started Tears of the Kingdom.

Yeah, that’s actually genuinely funny. The rest of it is fucked.

You don’t need to be logged in to view the mod log, you literally just go to https://lemmy.world/modlog in a browser.

Assuming your username on lemmy.world was the same as the one you’re using here, you received the ban for being a “disrespectful troll”: https://lemmy.world/modlog?page=1&userId=466656

(Edit: apparently it was originally a 29 day ban, but the admin removed it and re-entered it as a 2 day ban; unclear if that’s because they changed their mind, or because the 29 was a typo from the start)

Oh my god I love all of this

It’s a tough problem, sorta damned if you do, damned if you don’t. In my view (as a long-time resident but not a Hawai’i native), having some number of tourists in the coming months is probably necessary, but people obviously shouldn’t be going anywhere near Lahaina right now.

The only big website that could even come close to doing this (they won’t, and if they did it wouldn’t work, but they’re big enough that the attempt would at least be noticed) is Wikipedia.

A slightly more “productive” (sort of) avenue of approach would be another large corporation for whom Google is a competitor, and who themselves doesn’t rely (as much) on advertising, interfering with WEI for their own self-interested reasons. Apple is the most likely candidate here, although again, I don’t think that’s likely to happen.

Finishing off Xenoblade Chronicles 3’s post-game content before moving on to Future Redeemed. I’ve enjoyed the heck out of it, though I am basically ready to be done, so… that lined up pretty nicely, actually.

I’ve actually seen Heywood Banks (the guy who actually did Toast) live. Have signed mercy somewhere. Good times.

Such a good fucking show

Man I adore this game. Make sure to check out the Road to Gehenna DLC afterwards

Much easier, in fact; Eliza could pass the Turing test in 1966. Humans are incredibly eager to assess other things as being human or human-like.

Absolutely, it’d be a stupid and irresponsible thing to do, but, people do stupid and irresponsible stuff all the time. Sometimes you can imagine yourself making such a mistake, or at least, understand the mental process that led to it.

In this case, though, it’s a bit beyond that.

He bought the domain back later, actually.

Yeah, I feel like people commenting didn’t read the article, there kids as young as 5 years old just… left by the side of the road.

If you imagine this being done to high schoolers, it’d be easier to wrap your head around (although even then the fact that he ditched everyone on the entire bus is a bit insane). But just, leaving a 5-year old by the side of the road?

That third one can be tough, but I think it’s super important, and, not just in tech.

That said, also recognize that not every new skill or tool is necessarily appropriate for a particular task. You should still learn them, though, otherwise when they are appropriate, you may not even recognize it.
