OK, once you get thermometers and sums not being able to see the whole object makes me think it kinda defeats the point. But maybe that’s just me being a filthy Sudoko casual.

I’ll press on and see if it can click. Did get the second boss done in the end.

I think this for people on a Sudoku level or 3 beyond me.

The sight of a blank grid with a multitude of arcane extra rules across it is something I just can’t sink my teeth into.

Also, is one meant to/does one have to put numbers into areas still covered by the fog?

Ahh, I shall do that then and see if I can get further than the courtyard.

Which particular set of Israeli policies are you supporting here?

The 10-15 civilian deaths per strike on a possible low level Hamas supporter?

The continued “accidental” killing of medical staff, including Red Cross and Red Crescent workers, and journalists?

The idea of turning off water and electricity from all of Gaza as a valid response?

The escalation of illegal settlement and theft of Palestinian property and land in the West Bank, with IDF support no less?

Or the use of the Hannibal Protocol against Israeli Civilians on October 8th by IDF forces?

Or do you just not think it is incumbent on the one with greater power and strength to offer the olive branch first if peace is truly desires? And in fact would rather the Palestinian people are smeared across an enlarged Israel?

What other “mistakes” did they make?

A U in “colour”? An S in “realise”?

…

If you’re trolling: well done, wanker.

I didn’t like the first series, and would’ve quit it at episode 3 or so but I ended up without internet access for a couple of days and the whole series downloaded… It got better.

But yeah, life’s too short for TV shows that take time to be taken on faith. And if you did finish the first series and still not like it, more power to you.

I’ll respect the pokémon card game for demolishing reprint equity and making sure the meta cards are easily and cheaply available to players.

The card game gameplay, and high level competitive battling, while not M:tG good, are still both solid though. Closer to Magic than they are Yu-Gi-Oh.

Been clean since Sun/Moon.

I was disappointed with X/Y and gave them one last chance to change course.

The disappointing dungeons of X/Y had been replaced by nothing by straight lines with occasional fancy camera angles. The utter disgrace that was Z Cave as a super (only) dungeon was more than anything Sun/Moon offered.

For a game series meant to be about exploring and discovering monsters to collect, they’ve really let the exploration/discovery side down. Holding my console upside down is cool and all that, but gimmicks to sell strategy guides are no subsidy for actual explorable environments to lead to dynamic, emergent gameplay experiences.

Really want to make my take on a monster capture world explorer. I think there’s a lot of space for a spiritual successor to Pokémon.

Stick your tits on Lemmy. There are porn instances, too. 🫣

Because they fired the guy whose job it was to tell the press who got fired. So there is no longer an official record.

Thank you, that looks like a good set of hooks for me to get into at a weekend, child allowing.

I very much appreciate the guide. I’ll let you know when I’ve had a fiddle.

I tried using PiVPN to route my phone’s Internet access through my home network, but it kept breaking and I found I don’t have a head for networks.

Would caddy be able to do that in an easier to maintain way?

I assume it varies with the density of the asteroid.

And if we were using specifically shaped heat resistant metal rather than naturally forming ice/rock orbs it would burn up much less during re-entry too and impact with more tailored devastation, so the militarised artificial asteroid satellites could do bigger damage with smaller payloads.

I got to the pokémon game, and it doesn’t work and I couldn’t work out why and beat my head against it in my freetime for a week until I just gave up… 😭😔

That user is saying it in a more conspiracy sounding way, but isn’t factually wrong as long as you replace “given” with “sold”.

The publicly built and operated Internet infrastructure was cut up and sold off in 94 by Clinton to telephone companies at very friendly rates.

Governments send money to their fellow top people, by accident if not design.

The person you’re replying to may be much further to the left than you give them credit for.

The lesser of two evils is still evil and deserves to be called such. The US is not a benevolent nation.

The new ones are either flat open spaces or lines.

The 2D games at least had spaces to explore rather than just run forwards.

OK, if you ignore the hyperbole of my pre-christmas stress aggressive start, how much of the rest do you disagree with?

Less combatitively, I’m of the stance that just make AI generated materials exempt from copyright and you’ll at least limit mass adoption in public facing things by big money. Doesn’t address all the issues, though.

If you take that image, copy it and then try to resell it for profit you’ll find you’re quickly in breach of copyright.

The LLM is, in most cases, being licensed out to users for a profit off of the input data without which it could not exist in its current form.

You could see it akin to plagiarism if you think ctrl+c, ctrl+v is too extreme.

I’ll also add on that, for its many many flaws, the keighleys is pretty good about being aware of this kind of thing based on a few outlets that talked about how they were judges in the past and then suddenly never mentioned it again after an acquisition or the loss of a core editor.

Is that /s?
Because that last sentence really gives me pause for thought…
