mr breast's gonna buy twitter for 3% of what musk paid for it, and musk's gonna either buy wikipedia or become ceo of the linux foundation.

shame. though i did have a good time reading the off-topic comments on github arguing the merits of mastodon in shadow the hedgehog voice.

you can restrict who's allowed to make forums, which ought to have been admins only from the beginning.

it's just because it's postmill. only admins can add mods.

I've been trying to piece together what this is about, and it seems to be in reference to this. Also seems like a larger situation that's been brewing for a while, judging by some comments?

Anyway i was just surprised to come across a second person talking about queer baiting in relation to rust, even if it is in reference to the foundation and not the language itself

changing this would effectively log everyone out, so i don't think it should be done.

also having www as a separate subdomain is good if you want to have other subdomains, since cookies from one don't interfere with others.

you could host a gitea instance and use it to keep the scripts and config used to provision it in a git repo

it's so funny they named it copilot. the ejection seat and plane wreck jokes quite literally write themselves.

i'm aware of the text problem, and i'm going to get around it by playing it on switch and using the clip saving feature and/or the text history which was added in the hd versions

the english localisation is a mixed bag for me. i love the wit and general flow of the dialogue, i'm perfectly happy with the english names, i don't like the americentricness, and i hate how they keep digging when more and more japanese themed stuff keeps popping up and they need to explain how all this could possibly be happening in california. in the end, i kept coming back to play more of the games, so i guess it did its job.

in a sense, i did defeat duolingo. that thing is engineered to get you hooked on dopamine, with all the satisfying pling sounds and the leaderboards and stuff. clearly, i prevailed.

if i do get through ace attorney, i'll probably end up having learnt a disproportionate number of words related to anime court. i'm not sure how useful those will be in the duolingo's later courses.
