This makes me so proud to be Norwegian! (Which hasn’t been easy lately 😅)

Nah, all the Gen Z programmers I know are fueled exclusively by energy drinks! None of them drink coffee.

The ones my age and older, on the other hand…

Preferably mid-combat

Nah, you’re not dumb, you just didn’t know!

Here’s some history for you: When the Nobel Prize was created, Norway was in a union with Sweden. Seeing as Norway didn’t have any direct diplomatic relations, they were chosen to handle the diplomatically sensitive Peace Prize while the Swedes handled the rest.

Seize the means of computation!

Signed up when the Apollo app stopped working due to Reddit’s API restrictions.

They’re probably referring to the fact that the game was intended to be PvE some time during its development. Other than that, I don’t know… Game looks pretty great as far as I can tell from watching some streams!

I’d honestly be less mad about that.

A 25,000 sqft ballroom is opulence, a 25,000 sqft ball pit is an international attraction! In time it might also lead to the discovery of new life forms…

On that note, I would have loved to see The Butterfly Effect with Gyllenhaal in the lead role!

I have no idea about the meme format (though I see this is a cross post from anti memes), but the picture is a reference to a famous legend about exponential growth:

Allegedly, the inventor of chess asked the ruler of India (where it was invented) for payment in the form of rice, with a single grain in the first square and the amount doubling for each subsequent square.

I am a relatively median lifeform, while you are extreme, all-engulfing madness. A volatile simian nervous system, ominously new to the planet.

This is how you get a high GDP while half the population can’t afford to satisfy basic needs.

A real human bean?

1366 was always strange.

1366 is 768 divided by 9 times 16, to get an image with 16:9 (widescreen) aspect ratio. The 768 part comes from 1024x768, which was a very common screen resolution back when.

You plain forgot poor “E”! May I suggest 🗣️

The description of the bird starts out by saying that it’s very trusting, and will often perch on passers-by. Checks out, I guess!

ICE will continue to prioritize your removal

Well that’s not bleak at all…

Oh, I misunderstood. So you mean federating with their network from other software implementing the AT Protocol? From skimming the docs it looks like it should be possible as long as you implement the correct schemas, but I didn’t dive very deep.

Self-hosting a Bluesky PDS means running your own Personal Data Server that is capable of federating with the wider Bluesky social network.

Seems like it
