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.

dragon attack survivor

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

Then you just wait until somebody enters in.
When the person opens the door you run to them and yell "wait wait wait" while frantically gesturing. After you enter - say quick "thank you" and disappear.

I was stupid enough to use one wire and not two, or I wouldn’t be here typing this

Well, I was smarter, but, thankfully, still here.
I was maybe 5 years old when one day I decided for some reason that I have to know how the electricity works "first hand". So I took an electrical plug with a wire from dad's tool box. It had two exposed copper ends. I plugged it in the outlet and while trying to inspect the "electricity" flow I, most likely accidentaly, have completed the circuit with my hand.

Interesting how the experience wasn't painful it's just muscles in your body get tense and you literally can't drop the wire or move at all. Thank god my Dad was around and maybe 10 seconds after I got shocked he pulled the plug. I had no serious injuries: just burns, a bit of shock and a lifelong lesson.

P.S. It was a 220V outlet too. But I'm not sure if it's more dangerous than the US ones.

nope, Nephilim

Zip is fine (I prefer 7z), until you want to preserve attributes like ownership and read/write/execute rights.

Some zip programs support saving unix attributes, other - do not. So when you download a zip file from the internet - it's always a gamble.
Tar + gzip/bz2/xz is more Linux-friendly in that regard.

Also, zip compresses each file separately and then collects all of them in one archive.
Tar collects all the files first, then you compress the tarball into an archive, which is more efficient and produces smaller size.

It's interesting how often silent protagonists DO have their own personality.

For example, in The Legend of Zelda series Link is practically mute with only way to express itself is couple dozen lines of text and grunts. But 90% of people playing him - end up with the same annoying, unpatient little rascal who's going home to home destroying everyone's pots for fun.

Another good example is Doomguy - he's unhuman, full of bloodlust and anger, unstoppable force. You can't project yourself onto Doomguy, he's it's own character without any lines of dialogue and even before Doom games had any cutscenes.

Other silent protagonists that I believe have their own distinct personality: Jack from Bioshock 1, Kirby, Samus from Metroid, Chell from Portal, Claude from Gta 3, ...

Need another guide for the step F, because how the f do you not drop the sheep with that awkward grip?

To be fair, it's also missing open_dialog_file, dialog_open_file and most crucially file_open_dialog

mod+shift+q so you wouldn't close hours of work by accident (e.g. when typing other mod+_ keybinds)
