This is in the source article of this post: "While Luanti is popular as an open-source alternative to Minecraft (as its roots are in blocky sandbox games), it also lowers barriers to bringing creative ideas to life."

Yes, I didn't realize it was you in both threads either

Makes sense.

I got excited about an open source steamdeck...

The law being slow is exactly why a guy like Trump in power is dealing so much damage. Nearly everything he’s done has been illegal, but the decisions often take so long that they have no effect.

Oh. And let me tell you about my business cards... :D

'urllib3' completely saved me once. We had to authenticate with the border proxy using a certificate, then make a request to a web service ... that needed authenticating with a certificate. Urllib3 was the only one that could do it.

I have no skin in this game, but just because they're doing it doesn't mean it's their focus, the EU is big enough to work on multiple 0.8%-size wins all over the place.

Can we stay on topic? We are in the subject of making UIs keyboard drivable.

Not sure about "nonsensical calculation", but our brains perform computation (read: they transform information). In fact, that is what the brains are for (see: biology 101). As for mathematics, I am with Galileo: it is the language of the universe. Of course, we "invented" its silly glyphs and the like, but those are secondary. My 2 cents.

You can test your application, game, website without a physical phone?

The site is very broken on my iPhone safari. If I click an an anchor reference at the very top (“LLM” let’s say) and try to scroll down because it doesnt link me to the content, it keeps snapping me back to the top after a second.

Only reason to spend a bunch of money on hardware to run LLMs locally is if it's a hobby to you to an extent that even renting the GPUs temporarily won't satisfy you.

mind you, Ike's ending words were about how the US had built a fascist styled war machine

I have a weird personal theory that whittling down the number of app vendors on your phone is just a good thing to do.

As a Pixel user, I've gotten my phone to just having four (4) third-party app vendors.

- Duolingo (I've never seen an app be so annoying in a positive way, I appreciate it)

- Nintendo (obvs)

- Caffeine (quick setting tile that keeps the screen on--should really be a native feature, and I hope that day comes soon so I can ditch this)

- Super Productivity (saved my life)

Having a banking app installed seems way riskier than using a website. If someone had access to my phone, the banking app stands out like a spotlight. But if it's not installed, they have to open the browser, guess which bank I'm using, and enter the right URL (possibly aided by autocomplete, possibly not).

It just feels like a safer, additional step. My bank's mobile website is junk but I'm not spending all day on it.

In summation, fuck your app, give me a website.


You'll now pay a compliant packaging company to package goods for you.

well, for the americans, the trump and bibi governments were hoping to ally themselves with kurdish terrorist groups to attack and overthrow the iranian government

properly kurdistan should exist, and turkey/syria/iran/iraq should lose territory to make it.

the list of states is arbitrary, and the kurds have just as much right as the turks to a state and government such their violence is consider state acts of war rather than terrorism.


Will Apple break this?

> One speculative interpretation treats these numbers as a distorted memory of prehistory. Under this hypothesis, the reign boundaries encode real climate shifts...

"One theory" implies that someone somewhere has ever claimed this. But has anyone? TFA gives no source for the claim, AFAICT (although I skimmed a bit).


From supporters of the defendants:

I'm not going to just take the word of anybody in the US government without listening to the other side. The description on "Episode 10 Who Attacked" is the other side.


Nice, StreamTuner was how a whole generation found internet radio, glad someone's keeping it alive. Fun coincidence,we added our stations to radio-browser.info this week, so they should be findable in StreamTuner-ng already. Small internet. Will give it a spin.

From the opinion:

"Because the definitions of event and occurrence do not resolve the issue before us, we must also consider the statutory context"

They talk about this and the exact definitions for basically the entire opinion. It's not just "meh, I felt like it". They are dealing with how these words have been defined in prior statutes.


I apologize, it does seem like I misread and added the qualifier, you just claimed they made it “difficult”. My mistake.

But I still disagree that it is “difficult” or “user hostile” to put the command to add a web app to your Home Screen 3 (not 5) taps away. Menu -> submenu -> command is not user hostile or difficult. The command is in the same place as all the other “do something with this page” commands. It’s not hidden behind toggles, it’s not buried in submenus away from other similar actions, it’s not in its own menu or an activity you have to leave safari for and initiate from the Home Screen instead. It takes just as many taps to change to a specific tab as it does to save a PWA


https://github.com/ceiphr/ee-framework-presets

These are the ones I have been using. I've generally stuck with the lappy_mctopface variant. I have no idea about the naming, but these presets have been good enough for me without much messing about at all!


That explains the difference, but what's the purpose?

> It got me thinking though: what is a laptop?

A cat.


Lawyer here - As i explained last time we had a variant of this thread (see comment history if you are interested), this is a very complicated area that people try to make very simple.

It doesn't have to be complicated, mind you, but right now the way the law is written is basically:

1. Transmitting sports betting info between states is a federal crime unless it's legal in both states (18 U.S.C. § 1084(a))

2. The CEA regulations ban contracts that are illegal under state law (17 CFR 40.11)

3. Other forms of gambling/betting/contracts that are not sports are generally a-ok.

4. This is not a case of first impression, it's just getting relitigated because Kalshi doesn't want to follow the actual law. This has actually been pretty settled law for a long time, with new flareups maybe once a decade. Kalshi is just hoping to be treated like Uber was.

The third circuit's decision is pretty clearly "out there" in terms of existing caselaw.

However, this will end up at SCOTUS, and everything until then just doesn't matter. That will be a coin flip even though it shouldn't be


Yeah; how many times in 24 hours can one vigilante commit acts of thinly-narratively-justified but actually-illegal torture without audiences clueing in?

It seems more like a handrolled CodeQL

Read the article more carefully. It hasn't. The 3rd circuit has already made the opposite decision. There will be appeals to determine which appellate court was right and which wrong.

And this decision seems especially questionable. It is based on the idea that "reading event to mean outcome is an archaic or rare usage". That "archaic and rare outcome" is the standard meaning of the term in probability theory and is clearly the intended meaning of the word by legislators in the context.
