Ordered that one pretty recently (might still have it in the cupboard somewhere actually). Really liked that mild and almost sweet taste of it ^^

Agree completely. Tbh I was very surprised that YOU need to pay to get published. I think it should be the other way around, as publishers should care about publishing the most quality content possible and not reaping researchers off just because they are considered 'prestigious'.

SciHub is nice (and unsurprising in this ecosystem), but there should be a legal/not copyright infringing way to provide access to scientific papers.

No wonder something like SciHub exists.

Agreed. I'd say with open source it is harder to 'get away' with malicious features, since the code is out in the open. I guess if authors were to put those features, open nature of their code also serves as a bit of a deterrent sice there is a much bigger possibility of people finding out compared to closed source. However as you said it is not impossible, especially since not many people look through the code of everything they run. And even then it is not impossible to obfuscate it well enough for it not to be spotted on casual read-through.

I do periodic backups of my system from live usb via Borg Backup to a samba share.

Started off with some Georgian black tea and currently drinking Zhu Ye Qing.

[–] GlowHuddy 1 points 2 years ago

Yeah, that was probably the main culprit. But thankfully now I know better.

Yep, also had this. I'm generally insensitive to caffeine, especially in tea, but I remember my hands shaking even, when I drank a lot of gong-fu brewed Pu-Erh in quick succession with an empty stomach.

Thank you for creating the community! Feels great to have a place that isn't marked NSFW because of some company's add policy.

Depends xd I like to gong-fu brew all kinds of oolongs, pu'erh and black teas, either in gaiwan or small teapots. Special teapot for Japanese green tea and porcelain teapot for Chinese green/yellow teas.

Never tried cold brew yet, was thinking for some time to give it a go, but I always forget.

PS. Thank you for creating this community, really missed the reddit sub here.

I really enjoy those mild and flowery oolongs. But from time to time even more 'burned' oolongs resonate with me quite well.

I started to look at wine/Proton as just another linux runtime. At least now game devs have sth (mostly) stable and backwards compatible that they can target. It is really important since in Linux world, things are much more prone to experience breaking changes. Also the fact that game devs just need to develop one version for both Linux and Windows makes it super easy to target proton - you even don't need to have a separate build process. Hence we get a more 'refined' version than just half-assed port made by a small team or third-party.

So I'm quite happy with how things are now. It just shows how flexible and capable Linux really is. And who knows maybe in the distant utopian future, Linux (or sth based on it similar to chomebooks, but maybe not as gimped) will pick up market and we will have much more "native" runtime.
