Actually one of the few languages you can learn in its completeness in less than a day, so I wouldn't really say it's "hard to understand". More like hard to read and understands programs written in it.

Das ist Doppelsprech für "enorme Auswirkungen auf die Stabilität meiner Machtposition".

Man I'd love for that to catch on, mostly so it's easier to learn. Kids get confused by the order all the time. It's even shorter in some cases.

Also, the reverse order makes dictating phone numbers such a pain.

Yes. The "tragedy of the commons" is a myth.

Without any limits, individual cattle owners have an incentive to overgraze the land, destroying its value to everybody.

This is factually false, because the land will be destroyed and individuals don't benefit, not even in the short term. Commons work great (see open source software), but capitalism and power structures abuse and destroy them for short-term profit.

Interesting viewpoint, but I think the applications aren't at fault: The operating system should ensure that the user has control of the computer at all times. I think you need to do three things to achieve that:

  1. Limit process RAM usage, so the system never has to swap
  2. Limit process CPU usage, so the system never stalls
  3. When drivers / the operating itself crash, revert into a usable state (this one is probably the most complex one)

I guess really cold water isn't really "wet" per-se. What did I just write...

What do you think the authors of the video don't understand? You must have some insights if you say you understand AI better then everyone criticizing it.

Possible unfree licenses for artwork

I'd still consider the game open source, even if the art is copyrighted.

Dwarf Fortress

Is there an open source version? It's a great game (also try the steam edition if you check it out), but I thought it was closed-source.

osu! is an amazing rhythm game. Try osu!lazer, it's the new client: https://osu.ppy.sh/home/download

I also like Pioneers and Endless Sky, both space sims.

This might not count, but both Lichess, a chess website, and OGS, a Go website are open source.

There is also Mindustry, but I haven't played it.

I'm bored (but not in a bad way). I wish I could hang out with people, but I have nobody around right now. I feel happier than ever, just can't share it with anyone. I guess I'm just going to call someone and satisfy this extroverted phase that way.

I have not, thanks for reminding me!

Sorry, I used the wrong wording. I meant to write that it feels a little like greenwashing to me, because I don't have a lot of faith in a "green transition" (not enough materials, exploitation of the global south etc...). But the good thing is that the solarpunk vision can work just as well in a low-tech environment.
