  • ‘Evil Dead Burn’ Coming to Digital on August 4 and Physical Media on September 22

  • Eh, I think it's personally the weakest out of the franchise. I still enjoyed Burn, but I enjoyed Rise a lot more, especially the final act. Rise hit a perfect balance in tone, whereas I actually left the theaters after Burn feeling like the "fun" wasn't really there. I still need to rewatch 2013 to make sure it's as good as I remember.

  • Nintendo says users voluntarily paid higher prices, have no right to tariff refunds | Nintendo says Switch buyers got what they paid for, urges court to dismiss lawsuit.

  • IMO I think it's weird to focus specifically on Nintendo. The American government basically screwed over its populace and a ton of foreign companies (less sympathy for the former though). I don't think it's realistic to expect these companies to reimburse companies, because logistically it'd be a nightmare. The only way I can imagine consumers getting their money back is if the government used the tarrif money to pay a portion of the federal income tax for its citizens, ideally the lower tax vracket. Unfortunately that won't happen.

  • Non-stick pans?

  • You can use regular dish soap on a cast iron. The big no-nos are soaking for an extended period of time and not hand-drying after washing

  • Illinois Drops the Hammer on AI Companies. Pritzker isn't playing.

  • "operating at a loss" =/= "low revenue"

  • How come no one has taken 'A Hero's Journey' and applied it to the bible? Would this not give more evidence to work of fiction or non fiction?

  • That is a much stronger argument, except Israel is hardly ever portrayed as a "hero." The Bible portrays Israel as a nation that is constant going astray and making the wrong decisions.

  • How come no one has taken 'A Hero's Journey' and applied it to the bible? Would this not give more evidence to work of fiction or non fiction?

  • Lol, somebody hasn't actually read the Bible. You have taken quite a few liberties, just in the first few points.

    1. Jesus is never portrayed as "ordinary." He's also not born in "ordinary" circumstances because he's born in a time where the king is slaughtering infants due to a prophecy saying a new king will be born, hence how he ended up in the manger.
    2. The wisemen don't proclaim anything. An angel appears to Mary before Jesus is born and tells her exactly what will happen and what to do.
    3. Jesus is a literal baby at this point. He can't refuse anything
    4. Assumptions are of no value compared to facts, or at least something that is actually in a historical text or the actual Bible.
    5. This is not what "Crossing the Threshold" would be in the Hero's Journey. It's like Luke leaving Tatooine or Frodo leaving the shire. Jesus is the son of God, at least in the context of the New Testament. There is no "threshold." He's part of an omniscient being.

    and considering that's almost half of the steps, I don't think we need to go any further

  • How come no one has taken 'A Hero's Journey' and applied it to the bible? Would this not give more evidence to work of fiction or non fiction?

  • Who are you trying to apply the Hero's Journey too? Jesus? Because it doesn't really fit at all.

  • Date handsome cockroaches in a new dating sim from one of Japan’s leading pest control companies

  • Ideally there is a twist where they all turn out to be toxic, and pest control-senpai clears them out.

  • Arch Linux AUR Malware Campaign Hits Multiple User-Contributed Packages

  • Or you coukd just use Arch without installing an AUR helper?

  • Do people who were blind from birth see anything in their dreams, or is it just audio and textures?

  • Just fyi: MDPI-published research does not have a good reputation.

  • Kittygram v1.1 has released

  • I tried the same user, and it worked for me just now. Thanks for working on this project!

  • Kittygram v1.1 has released

  • Just fyi, I tried one your instance. Searched a user, clicked a result, and got an error.

  • Anthropic/OpenAI may be spending more than $1000 for every $100 you pay them

  • Improved hardware capabilities used to come very quickly (see Moore's Law and Dennard Scaling). However that trend is basically over, so getting higher performance hardware takes a lot of effort to make hardware specialized for certain tasks. That's why you see there inference accelerators like Groq, SambaNova, Cerebrus, etc. However this is hardware that still is gonna go into data centers. Something innovative has to happen on the AI side for commercial-grade models to be runnable on consumer hardware.

  • What’s your favorite video game that most people didn’t like ??

  • Star Fox Zero. Sure, the story was a repeat of old game, but the gameplay was not. The controls needed more polish, but ultimately I thought the gameplay was great. I actually didn't mind the motion controls. Most of what people complained about didn't bother me or felt overblown.

  • The Shocking Success of ‘Backrooms’ and ‘Obsession’ Should Be a Memo to Hollywood: You Need What’s Outside the Box

  • When I saw the trailer for Obsession before Hokum (which is a great movie btw), I honestly thought it looked kind of generic. I'm surprised to see so much praise for it. I guess I will have to check it out.

  • On what specific episode does your favorite "I swear it eventually gets really good" television show actually start turning around?

  • This is how I feel about it. I remember loving it when it was first airing. I did a rewatch a couple years back and couldn't stand it. Can't say I like a single character outside of Andy.

  • Permanently Deleted

  • Correct me if this is naive, but wouldn't this potentially also reduce the diversity of the gene pool?

  • Do you use vim?

  • In vim you can make some changes to a file, close vim, and then reopen the files, and then undo your changes, i.e. your undo history persists across sessions.

  • Do you use vim?

  • I use helix part-time but am forced to go back to neovim a majority of the time for a few reasons:

    1. no persistent undo
    2. no ctags and cscope (some C/C++ projects don't work well with clangd)
    3. niche plugins (e.g. I just found a neovim plugin that gives me a way to run ipynb files in-editor)

    If 1 and 2 got fixed, I'd be a full time helix user
