Oh, and GBA rom is included with game files.

I believe for many companies, developers work on giant codebases with many hundred thousands or even millions of lines of code.

With such large codebase you have no control over any system. Because control is split between groups of devs.

If you want to refactor a single subsystem it would take coordination of all groups working on that part and will halt development, probably for months. But first you have to convince all the management people, that refactor is needed, that on itself could take eternity.

So instead you patch it on your end and call it a day.

I believe they both died after the Mountain and the Smaug part, so not really relevant.

That's one way to describe a burglar who came with a group to kill and plunder. And succeeded in both without major troubles.

No one tell them that they can monopolize solar panels.

Meanwhile Nim:

echo "I am still worthy"

let a = r"I hate the ugly '\' at the end of " &
         "multiline statements"

for x in 0..9:
  if x == 6: echo x

echo x # this is error in Nim, but not in python. Insane!

assert false + 1 # this is an error (python devs in shambles)
assert true - 1 # see above

Thanks for coming to my Ted-talk.

Ubuntu: 😮why?

For a lot of people Ubuntu is the linux. Canonical is just good at marketing. For all it worth, Ubuntu is not the bad choice for average user who's not into ricing and not bothered by bloat.

Manjaro: haven’t you managed to kill it yet?

I've been using Arch and Manjaro for couple years each and in my experience they both break regularly. But, for some weird reason, Arch Linux is praised, when Manjaro is shamed upon.

Mint: ex windows guy?

Aren't we all?

The most stable rolling distro.

Viscera Cleanup Detail

What assistant? I've never had any annoying popups.
Is it not available for android 11?

Or it could be because I've had "Google" app disabled for the past 3 years.

Wandavision was a 10/10 series for me, until they reintroduced all the usual boring superhero marvel slop back.

It had interesting characters, humor, mystery, weird unsettling feeling when simulation was a bit off. But they had to ruin it and replace with lots of bad CGI effects.

One of the more famous and recent examples is a buryat mummy of Dashi Dorzho Itigilov

His mummy is extra creepy because it has elastic skin, hair and fat so it looks as if he's still alive (see pic in the article):

According to Buryat Buddhists, Itigilov’s body is so well preserved because the Lama is still living, having achieved the higher meditative state known as śūnyatā, or emptiness
