  • Hard work

  • Honestly you don’t need your family to be rich. A family well-off enough to give you:

    • Good financial education
    • Doesn’t kick you out at 18 or require rent
    • Pays your tuition (maybe not in the US)
    • Supporting in your endeavors
    • Family loans (not having to pay interest is massive)

    Makes a HUGE difference.

  • Buying supplements for this harmless a phenomenon is kinda crazy.

  • mogged

    Jump

  • Doubt that. Falling like this happens to me every winter, it’s not that bad, it just hurts for a week or two after that.

  • try it. just a little taste.

    Jump

  • I like Satisfactory but it’s so much more shallow than factorio, especially when mods get involved. It’s also poorly optimized (at least compared to factorio, which I don’t think any game has come close to in that regard). It’s a fun game to play once or twice, or for people who don’t have much time to sink into it, but it gets boring pretty quickly imo. Factorio on the other hand has some of it’s most popular mods take 100+ hours to complete.

  • Which healthcare would you choose?

    Jump

  • Of course I agree a long wait time for treatment is better than no treatment at all. But the common concern here I hear from most people around me is that it’s generally much slower (at least in Quebec) than in other countries with such healthcare (eg. Scandinavian countries). How much of that is just a case of “the grass is greener on the other side”, I do not know.

    I’ve been fortunate enough to not require healthcare so far, though I’m not sure how it will go when I need it. The population is getting older, and older people generally need more healthcare. That’s less health workers for more sick people and less workers paying for more healthcare.

  • Which healthcare would you choose?

  • Might depend where you live. Here in Quebec, I know someone who could either get his cancer cured in 2+ years here (which would have been too late, but technically free or almost free), or instantly in the US but for 200k, so he raised money and got it cured in the US.

    Could be that this isn’t the same in other parts of Canada, but at least in Quebec, this kind of story is very common. At a smaller scale, one would pay to go to the private sector here instead.

  • Increase your productivity

    Jump

  • Yes, and when you press ‘Home’ it just teleports you home. It’s such a big time saver.

  • PC Gamer: "I'm brave enough to say it: Linux is good now, and if you want to feel like you actually own your PC, make 2026 the year of Linux on (your) desktop"

    Jump

  • Maybe, but this isn’t just any year, this is THE year of the linux desktop.

  • What you linked is very different. It’s something you write down but are expected to still remember later. If this helps you with your grocery list, then yes this is good, but if instead of actually using your memory you look at the list, that’s what’s bad. Writing itself is very good, it’s not having to recall it that’s not.

    In a test at school for example, handwritten notes does help memory, since you’re still expected to use your brain later to remember it, as opposed to reading the notes.

    Note that while I say it’s “bad”, it’s really just one factor among many. Just like everyone knows sugar is bad yet everyone consumes it to some extent. But the more of those “bad” things you avoid, the more likely you are to suffer from memory issues later.

  • Yes, a grocery list isn’t hard to remember at all if you have somewhat decent memory. It’s made even easier if you know where the items are in the store since you can memorise the distance and path instead of the items themselves.

  • Mine autodecrypts with a hardcoded password in a text file. I don’t really care about encryption right now, but the minute I do, it’s one file delete away.

  • Worth noting that writing things down is bad for long term memory. Your brain is a muscle, if you delegate, it won’t stay fit.

  • What good do luxury apartments do that no one can afford?

    Jump

  • It’s probably fine if you’re used to it but man I’d be so depressed living in such a densely populated city.

  • You can pry pattern matching from my cold dead hands

    Jump

  • You can also use let else.

     
        
let (Some(count\_str), Some(item)) = (it.next(), it.next()) else {
    panic!("Can't segment count item pair: '{s}'");
};

    But really it’s the exact same as other languages, it just forces you to handle it better. C-based languages will return 0/null/-1 and you’ll have to check all 3 of those because they might not mean the same thing. How is that better?

  • Not paying attention in the Grub menu

  • Well they’re still able to block 99% of the “script kiddies” that just download a cheat to feel better about themselves. I feel like besides at the top 0.01%, this is by far the largest portion of cheaters.

  • This long-term data storage will last 14 billion years

    Jump

  • I suppose it could be considered a trade-off? There’s the obvious advantages of longevity and possible size(?), it van still be viable in some niche uses where that matters. Github’s code vault from a while back could have benefited from that.

  • This is explicitly stated to be for cold storage though. It doesn’t have to be fast at all. And they’re supposedly aiming for 500mbps soon.

  • EAC is notoriously less invasive than vanguard. The repo you linked doesn’t even have a fraction of what you’d need to hide from vanguard.

    There are SO many things to hide. In theory it sounds possible, in practice just not.

    To name a few, you’d have to hide:

    • cpu jitter/latency
    • interrupt behavior
    • page table behavior
    • msr access
    • cache invalidation patterns
    • IOMMU
    • PCIe inconsistencies
    • boot sequence
    • driver timing
    • CPUID

    And so much more. It’s almost impossibly hard to hide all that. Even if you could, a tiny mistake at one point or a stealth update and you’re banned.

    In comparison, avoiding vanguard and cheating on a legit windows machine is trivial. DMA cards are expensive but impossible to detect. DP/HDMI + mouse hooks are another impossible to detect option.
