I like using Firefox, but it’s a bit ironic to have google analytics tracking on the page you declare to protect the users privacy.

Ok, thank you. I’ll look into those.

Thanks, I found that myself also and keep in mind. I briefly tried Jolt in the test scene I made for the glitch and it seemed to work more consistently.

It’s a bit hard to reliably reproduce, but when I knock down the boxes on their broad side, there’s usually at least one exhibiting this behavior. https://github.com/Walop/godot-physics-glitch

Fun fact: US has so weak food counterfeit laws and enforcement it has become the dumping ground for low quality oil or even mixed, making it an allergy hazard. If you haven’t gone out of your way to ensure you are getting the real deal, and paid a premium for it, you probably have never tasted genuine extra virgin olive oil. https://www.mashed.com/281801/the-real-reason-your-olive-oil-is-probably-fake/

33 years ago. It has already been third of a century since 1990…

Laws and terms are for the poor. I am sure big players like miHoYo, Niantic and Game Freak (Pokemon Go/Scarler/Violet) already have their own agreements and would not be affected by this.

The clarification on Xitter states deleting and reinstalling is 2 charges, the same as installing to 2 different devices. https://twitter.com/stephentotilo/status/1701679721027633280?s=20

Can’t wait an indie developer to go bankrupt because the super secret algorithm counted updates as new installations and the developer gets billed multiple times for their whole player base.

So… If the Unity’s secret spyware and algorithm suddenly decides to count an update as a new installation, you suddenly get slapped with a huge bill. Especially if you release multiple small patches and your whole player base is counted multiple times.

Half as Interesting explained how it ended up like this. https://piped.video/watch?v=_Bq-6GeRhys

TL;DW; Amazon tried to offload vetting of the third party vendors to the patent and trademark office by requiring their brands are registered, but the vendors ended up generating nonsense brand names that automatically pass because there are too many applications and the names aren’t obviously going to conflict with existing ones.

Well, the Puritans didn’t escape persecution to Americas, but felt they didn’t have enough freedom to persecute others according to their views and went to find that.

That is exactly what happened with third pound burgers.

That’s the difference, they hoard wealth and not currency. The value of assets do not go down when currency loses its value with inflation.

Wealthy have little to no cash that would lose value with inflation, they just buy everything on credit and have their wealth tied to assets and investments that probably gain value at least at the pace of inflation.

Yes, I do. A lot. Starting from elementary school when a class mate had a really weird pronunciation of Harry Potter.

Some of my embarrassing memories aren’t even something I did, but something I cringed hard at when I saw or heard it. Sometimes I am so afraid someone else is going to embarrass themself I have to block my ears so I don’t hear it.

Eneasz Brodski has an excellent audio version of this. After a rough start the audio quality gets a lot better and there are actually different readers for the characters. https://hpmorpodcast.com/

I did enjoy The Methods of Rationality, but I think it wanders in to territory of intellectual masturbation in the hypercompetence of the main character, even though it tries to justify it, and wouldn’t recommend without reservations.

If you enjoyed this you should definitely check out Mother of Learning by Domagoj Kurmaic (aka nobody103).

I own LotR and have read it. It basically defined the fantasy genre as we know it and has also inspired a lot not directly derived from it. But how it is written it didn’t click with me and reading it felt a bit of a chore and I have never felt revisiting the book.
