This smells like an SEO article and the link is here to boost it in the Google results. There’s literally no information in there that isn’t just common sense.

I don’t think it’s a big deal where you start. The latest iteration of Riven will likely be the most accessible and that’s probably what matters most if you’re just starting out.

Much of the appeal (for me at least) is that the storyline is a Tolkien-like epic story spanning thousands of years. Myst takes place before Riven, and if you wanted to consume it in chronological order you would start by reading the books (which are surprisingly good). But it’s fine to go back and “fill in the blanks” if you play in a different order. It’s like reading The Hobbit after you read The Lord of the Rings trilogy.

Also note that Riven and Riven 2024 are the same story so there’s no need to play both of them. Same with Myst, just pick the most modern iteration of it. The versions that allow you to move and look around freely take away a lot of frustration with trying to make out what the world looks like and finding clues.

You say that as if it was easy, and as if it doesn’t come back again a few Windows updates down the road.

Others said their local offices had closed since the pandemic

This part is wild. So they closed down the office and then punish the employees for not coming into the office. Tell me this is illegal.

I agree his answer sucks, but perhaps the fault still lies with the distribution developers (who should know better), not the authors of systemd. In that context I can understand the resentment expressed by the dev. It’s not directed toward the end user but toward the distro developers, who have implemented systemd in a broken and dangerous way.

Dick Head… his name was Dick Head.

I’m reading this at Amsterdam airport. Trying to get the hell away from here asap.

I misread the title as “Fire men convicted of massive, illegal streaming service” and was wondering if they were broadcasting fires

When you buy something you should be able to pass it on or sell it to someone else. This “the software not sold, only licensed” BS should be illegal. Either you rent with a monthly fee, or you buy it and own it. Owning something means you can sell it to someone else.

But because it’s all opinion, it gives me nothing except “some guy on the the internet has an opinion”. I can’t do anything with it, especially not form an opinion of my own. It’s just a waste of my time. Mind you, I already am of the opinion that Tesla is going to shit but I found very little in this article to substantiate that opinion should I need to argue for it myself, and the headline is just a plain out lie that that has no basis in the body text. It’s poorly written at best, and intentionally misleading at worst.

In a corporate setting there usually isn’t

I don’t think Riker would be ashamed of his browser history. Picard would be ashamed of Riker’s browser history, though.

I wonder if she still performs the Riker maneuver when sitting down.

Only if you are in insert mode. If you are in normal mode, Shift-I moves to the beginning of the line and then enters insert mode.

Sorry, I think I came off as too confident in my previous comment. I’m quite sure about my first paragraph but the rest is just speculation from an amateur.

If I would risk speculating even further though, there’s some similarity in the sense that infinities indicate a problem. In the ultraviolet catastrophe the infinity arises from the energy of arbitrarily short EM wavelengths. With gravity it arises in the density of black holes. It seems unreasonable that it would actually be infinite, and it’s possible that quantization of gravity plays a part in preventing that from happening.

We know that gravity is a wave that travels at the speed of light, this has been experimentally measured many times. If it is also quantized (a very reasonable symptom hypothesis since everything else that we’ve ever seen is) then by definition there are particles that carry gravity.

If gravity is continuous then we would end up with something like the ultraviolet catastrophe but for gravity.

This is such extremely poor engineering that it throws me into a rage. There is nothing to prevent them from installing the update in the background progressively while driving and then just switching to the new version in one swift atomic operation (like changing the name of a directory) when it’s ready

Also using a VPN won’t help at all.
