I get the general point, but for the specific example in that comic, electronic voting has been in use in Brazil since the '90s, and there's basically no fraud connected to it from what I've heard/read. And they have the official results in hours, not days.

Switched to Ente Auth when Authy stopped having a free desktop version. What if I lose my phone? I want both my devices to have access to my codes.

The Overtoon Window in England (not as much the other UK nations) is way to the Right of the rest of Europe

oh fuck, this gif just made me realise now, after decades of knowing this movie, that they mistranslated this line in the Hungarian dub as "spitters" 🤦‍♂️ "Splitters" makes so much more sense.

I "love" how they very carefully avoid making any apology whatsoever.

David Brin's Existence features a rat's brain model as the first true AGI that escapes onto the internet, and which people then worship by donating some tiny % of their CPU cycles to it :) I found Existence a great near-future sci-fi novel even ignoring the alien plotline, and just seeing his technological/societal vision for the next century or so.

I'm still sticking to Windows mostly because of Adobe programs and gaming, so I guess I'll just have to go the usual massgrave.dev route and group-policy all the crap out of Win11 😮‍💨

 

Of the 73,257 NFT collections we identified, an eye-watering 69,795 of them have a market cap of 0 Ether (ETH).

This statistic effectively means that 95% of people holding NFT collections are currently holding onto worthless investments. Having looked into those figures, we would estimate that 95% to include over 23 million people who’s investments are now worthless.

 

I admittedly don't know much about its historical background, but I found this a fascinating read about the legacy of the nineties' Bosnian war that is still acutely felt throughout the region.

 

Following ChthonVII's idea, I'm mirroring my probably only interesting post on the subreddit :D


Finally got around to watch the 2-hours long GW1 segment of the recent Extra Life 2022 ArenaNet livestream. The devs had a lot of interesting insights and amusing anecdotes, so I made a bunch of clips - sharing them here in case someone else haven't had the time to watch the whole thing.

The participants were:

  • Bobby Stein - writing team lead

  • Darrin Claypool - level designer

  • Colin Johanson - game designer

The clips in order of appearance:

A few more bits that were too short to worth clipping:

  • Early in development there were no professions, you could slot any skill.

  • They spent 4-5 months working on Sorrow's Furnace compared to their usual couple of weeks per zone.

  • GW1 development team was around 70-80 at launch, and peaked around 100 with EotN. (GW2 had 350 developers at launch.)

Twitch only allows max. 1 min long clips, so sometimes I had to cut off an interesting follow-up - if you want to see how a clip continued, click Watch Full Video.

PS.: For the story of the hideous leopard-print couch go to this timestamp in the VoD :D
