There’s also a nifty optimization detail that was included originally in Breath of the Wild to deal with memory constraints, and eventually weaved as both a core part of the plot and a balance mechanic: the Red Moon phenomenon, that resets the state of the overworld at regular intervals. The developers originally explained that at the first stages of development, they had to deal with the fact that the game would eventually run out of RAM while tracking the status of every single enemy, so they decided to add a way to clear the slate, and settled for one of the best ways to integrate it in the lore of the game - explaining it to be caused by the malice of Ganon making all the slain creatures go back to life. And in an open-world game with weapon degradation, it’s highly appreciated to have a reliable source of additional weaponry, simply by waiting for the next Red Moon to defeat a few more enemies and take their weapons. I doubt that degradation would have stuck in the game if it weren’t for the Red Moon making the pull-and-push of resource management balanced - without it, there would be a point in the game where Link would have exhausted all available sources of weaponry and be doomed to play the pacifist for potentially the rest of the game.

Here’s the point, he probably should not be replaced as-is. His trademark stubbornness has gotten the free software community in trouble before, and while admittedly that same stubbornness is what has allowed the FSF to persist in the face of corporate attacks over the years, that same stubbornness has also prevented the FSF from having a firmer standing in the software community, due to its own ideological purism and reluctance to collaborate with less strict actors like the Open Source Foundation. During the time where Stallman was temporarily banned from the FSF, I could see an ideological move towards leniency. Before Stallman left, they kept complaining about users that didn’t quit the entirety of proprietary software cold-turkey (and socially isolated themselves as a direct result). After Stallman left, though, they started to go for an approach they call the “freedom ladder”, where they request people to start using as much free software as they viably can.

But if he absolutely has to be replaced as-is, it’s incredibly difficult to find somebody with the same degree of insistence. Eben Moglen was, in my opinion, the most viable candidate, but sadly he was recently outed as an abusive employer.

I’d say that bronze is tainted and should be entirely disposed of, but that would probably annoy environmentalists.

If you use Docker, somebody has been taking the effort of wrapping the new Rust-based self-hosted sync server into a Docker recipe: https://github.com/jeena/fxsync-docker

If anything, I expect the measure to encourage people to not drink coffee at all, or to wait until they’re home instead.

Personally, the plastic bag ban has resulted in me just purchasing much less or avoiding purchases entirely, especially if it’s something I’m unable to carry to my home with my bare hands. In hindsight that has reduced a lot of primary waste as well

I’m currently using YunoHost behind CG-NAT with a Wireguard VPS bypass, but plan on moving to a Dockerized setup soon because of YNH still using an outdated version of Debian. What do you recommend me to keep my setup as similar to YNH?

You can always try searching on Trending Communities or New Communities, that’s where I’ve found many new interesting communities to follow and I have both of them on my RSS feed to ensure I don’t miss any news. In related topics, the main Wordpress.com site is finally enabling ActivityPub so expect many blogs to start interacting with the Fediverse and, who knows, directly cross-posting to Lemmy.

That reminds me - are there viable alternatives to each of these?

While I’m not entirely sure about this reasoning, it might be related to the status of soy as a meat and milk substitute. Omnivores claiming that “soy is not meant for human consumption in the same way that milk and meat are” must have eventually been shortened along the way as “soy is not meant for human consumption”.

If you want to make it the easy way, yes. If you can handle using Linux as your sole daily driver system (or can manage to configure a virtual machine to run on boot over Windows while opening all the required ports in both Windows and the VM): not necessarily

So, has somebody managed to mod the missing Spider-Man missions into the PC version of the game?

Anyway

I’m seriously tempted to cross-post this to !nottheonion@lemmy.world

Also: certain Latin transliterations of Hebrew

I’m so broke that I don’t even know the lyrics to You Don’t Talk about Bruno

My setup is similar, but what I have is one UPS for the things that shouldn’t go down in case of power outage (the modem and server) and another for everything else in my room that can go down for a while without much loss (the computer, consoles, screen, etcetera)

There are a few promising leads in sodium, graphene, and liquid hydrogen batteries. And yeah that includes salt batteries as well

Still waiting on thorium and fusion reactors to be a thing. If nuclear is a necessity in the meanwhile, the least they can do is to build them in a place far away enough from the general population and natural resources, that way the containment zone in case of a breach would be a lesser loss.

Fun fact: I’m actually aiming to do just that someday. My work is mostly remote, so if I can manage to live just close enough to the city and with enough space to get my own plantation, I could feasibly live off the grid with only a subscription to the Internet
