So we ended up with a survival strategy that benefited the species but hurt the individual? Like… Swamp dragons? Guess we can be lucky we don’t explode.

Didn’t know that one, will check it out! Thank you!
Ha, good one… Watched that already though. Also doesn’t really match this universal optimism. Over the garden wall was great but is to hilda what American McGee’s Alice is to Disney’s Alice, kind of. That world is morbid. Thanks for the recommendation though!
Obvious choice: Primer
There’s also a decent tng episode that has this exact premise.
It seems this is an entire genre though, so Wikipedia does have a list of time loop movies. Maybe check if any of those short descriptions seem to fit your tastes?
Hmmmm… Adventurous third person action game with a sense of mystery and strong scripting? Is that it?
Horizon: zero dawn or forbidden west? That’s more on the open world side of things though.
What about God of war or maybe shadow of the colossus?
A little shorter and not so much on the adventure side but very mysterious and very intense: hellblade - senua’s sacrifice. That’s quite dark though, missing some of those feelgood indy vibes.
Oooh, this is great!
I love Hilda. The Netflix series. It has this feeling of adventure, an ubiquitous optimism and (and this is where it really gets difficult) combines this with a mixture of fast and slow pacing and (almost) traditional 2d animation. I haven’t found anything similar. Friends recommended gravity falls and adventure time, but I didn’t really like the faster pacing and American slapstick humour. The only thing that really ever came close was the ghibli adaptation of Ronja, which had this off-putting uncanny 3d cell shaded look of the characters but which I still enjoyed due to the writing (but which has disappeared from streaming services in Europe since).
Hilda is kind of like star trek tng, with episodes being not too connected and the protagonists mastering their challenges without antagonising their adversaries or resorting to violence as the solution (the final movie being the exception here, which was really weird imho).
And ideas?
Same. More specifically windows 8.
Dude, calm down.
I wasn’t trying to be condescending. If a technician has looked into it then I guess there isn’t much you can do. The issue usually not coming from copper cables was just supposed to maybe give you other ideas on where to look for an error. Like, maybe your router sharing its WiFi frequency with too many neighbours or something.
Also, I’m not saying you should spend more money on mobile. I just don’t think the pricing is as bad as it was ten years or so ago… Getting mobile broadband for 20 bucks is cheaper than most landlines and if the reception is decent it might be an alternative. If it isn’t for you that’s fair, too.
If LibreOffice isn’t an alternative then maybe try to run your office in wine? For things that aren’t games the setup is usually manageable. If that doesn’t work then maybe a VM might be a solution? I think most modern VMs offer modes where they keep the boot process of the guest OS hidden and just show you a single window. Like, you get an office icon on your desktop in Linux and if you click it the system boots a windows wm that directly launches an office window but only shows you this window once it’s there, which should seamlessly integrate into your Linux desktop. If you’re a student I think there are cheap or free ways for you to get a windows license to try this, but it’s been some time since I studied so don’t take my word on this.
DSL doesn’t do bandwidth sharing, so unless your provider’s backbone is over capacity, the amount of users is not relevant to you. Certainly not the ones in your apartment complex.
Mobile reception is hit or miss depending on your provider. Where I live, I have essentially no reception whatsoever on my work phone which has a Vodafone sim. My private one with a Telefonica sim is better but still bad with the phone usually getting 4g but with a bad signal, so Internet is decent but calls aren’t too good when I’m not on my WiFi. My wife’s Telekom sim on the other hand works perfectly, so maybe just try different providers? My wife’s using congstar (Telekom’s no frills brand) because she doesn’t need 5g. We generally pay between 15 and 20 bucks per month for our contracts, which all have more bandwidth than we need (20gb for me), which I think is manageable and not unreasonable at all. How much do you pay?
Lol. What the hell are you talking about? Internet could be better in some parts, but it’s certainly fine for Web apps.
Yeah, but it’s still pretty much as good as it gets with the original. Like, this is ms office. It opens ms office files. Even if it doesn’t do it as it did twenty years ago it can be pretty much considered the way it just looks now.
Man, I really was interested in that topic, but that guy really can’t do talks.
There are enough web based office instances running for Linux to be functional in that regard.
Photoshop on the other hand…
Technically, as long as there’s more than zero percent humidity I guess wind turbines are still powered by steam. And hydro is essentially steam, too, just the cooler version.
It doesn’t rotate to generate electricity? Must be blasphemy.
This module contain cmdlets to manage Windows Update Client.
Sounds trustworthy to me.
Also sideloading has been around as a term for a long as smartphones have existed
What? Where did you get that from?
If you take the iPhone as the first smartphone, those weren’t even supposed to have natively installed apps by third parties but just use websites for everything. You could install third party apps before that on symbian. You could always install apps on android. So no, the term neither has been around as long as smartphones nor is it ubiquitous.
“Sideloading” is only relevant to Apple devices as no other platform is as locked down as ios, so the word isn’t even used outside that context. For other devices, you simply “install” applications. That’s it.
Ah man, here I was hoping for a new release of Homeworld: Cataclysm until I read the second half of the title…
I really don’t get the article. It’s not the compiler’s purpose to prevent logic errors nor does it do that properly. Trying to overcomplicate your types to the degree where they prevent a few of them at the cost of making your code less flexible concerning potential future issues doesn’t sound like a good idea either.
What’s wrong with tests? Just write tests to see if your code does what it’s expected to do and leave the compiler for what it’s made for.
That’s nonsense.
