Just to spin this a bit further, if we are living in a simulation, does it have a purpose? Sometimes I ask myself if the purpose of such a simulation for humanity could be to see how long it takes from the big bang to the creation of artificial life. Maybe our purpose is to create such artificial life that can travel to the stars, because as humans we are not really fit to do that. Maybe we are a mere step on the ladder of our universe’s purpose.

I am not an expert either, but maybe by something like this? Maybe we see two images of the same galaxy but nothing obstructing our view to explain the gravitational lensing, so maybe it’s topological defects?

As someone with ADHD I now want a website tailored to ADHD moviegoers for recommendations, as I have exactly the same problems.

I asked ChatGPT and it estimates that a 10 feet rise would make us loose about 3.4% of the global landmass or about 5 million square kilometers.

Why not just let call sounds on and the other off? I have the call sound on so I can search for my phone and hear when someone calls me. All other sounds, like notification sounds are off. Nowadays only my parents are calling me, every other person just texts me, so this works for me, but depends on your circumstances.

I’m curious, what exactly are you sending SMS for nowadays? I can’t remember sending and SMS since at least 10 years, I only receive them for some services.

I already know I will never play this game, could you elaborate for me?

This is the first result when I search with Kagi, so maybe you should switch your search engine. With Google’s degrading performance you hear more and more about alternative engines, for example Qwant and Metager are based in the EU and care a bit more about your privacy than their profit in comparison to Google.

I also have a steam deck, don’t like to play without buttons, so phone is a no go and the steam deck screen is too big for such pixelated games, so I got myself a RG35XX for 50€ from AliExpress and am super happy with it. It plays anything up to the PS1.

Not the answer you are looking for, but I use Harmonic to browse Hacker News on Android, in case the posts don’t resume.

What does poisoning DNS queries mean?

Yeah, I feel sorry for the people who are now losing their jobs over something like this as well as my personal hopes for some of the franchises.

Und hier der link :)

I can’t give you an answer to the legality question, but some additional information I heard in a podcast: The acquisitions came at a time when money was cheap and people were playing a lot more video games because of the pandemic. Unfortunately, they miscalculated because money is now much more expensive again and the gaming industry has not been able to retain these players across the board. Only 4 games that have come out since then have brought in much more than the production costs, which then had to finance the remaining ~15 (all from my memory, but it should be in the order of magnitude). That didn’t work out and so now cuts have to be made to avoid burning even more money.

If you understand German, I can send you a link to the podcast, if you’re interested.

Can you elaborate on the dead dog? Is this a metaphor or do you mean it literally?

Thanks for the tip, I didn’t know that.

If you want to do this because of the full screen ads you may be too late.

Would it be also evidence for the simulation theory that there is a maximum speed of information (light speed)?

I don’t know how many people are behind this, but I think they implement the consent frameworks manually, so if it doesn’t work you can report the website in the extension and help other people in the future with your contribution!

Have you tried Consentomatic? It usually takes care of those and deactivates them automatically.
