Friends of Mineral Town is a good remake of one of the most beloved entries in the series.

Only case where I consider pre-ordering is if there’s a decent discount for doing it and I know that I’ll definitely want the game at launch (for example if most of my group of friends will be playing it at the same time).

Have you played any of the harvest moon / story of seasons games? It’s the series that inspired Stardew Valley. Most of them are, in general, much more chill than even Stardew itself. There are a bunch of them on steam (on there, look only for the story of seasons games and ignore the ones named Harvest Moon)

I said it as a joke but I suspect it might be true, too. I see a lot of people complaining that they see too many posts of people they block.

Try blocking her, the algorithm will prioritize her posts if you do.

I reached out to them and they told me they are currently working in implementing the native protocol and they’ll replace the bridge with it.

I’m not very familiar with the matrix protocol but rocket.chat advertises itself as having implemented the matrix protocol. What you said is also true according to their documentation, so now I’m confused about what is actually going on. Based on what rocket.chat implemented, is it wrong to say that they use the matrix protocol? And what are the limitations of their approach as opposed to a full implementation of it?

Rocket.chat implements the matrix protocol (or something else from matrix, check the other replies) to federate with other rocket.chat instances. It also had a different federation protocol before implementing matrix.

The sub-conscious processes of our brain tend to not use any language. Dreams and thoughts may be translated into some regular language for some people but not everyone and when it does the language picked might have more to do with the content of what is being shown than the person’s proficiency in the language.

Are you telling me there’s a reason why I have to click shutdown twice for gnome to start the shutdown process? I always wondered why it had that 60s waiting time.

Element does it natively? As in, it’s a feature of Element and not some integration with a different tool? I didn’t even expect calls to be a part of the matrix protocol yet.

Mint is often the most recommended distro, because whatever you may need to do in it, it tends to be easy-ish to figure out.

But these days I would strongly recommend in favor of some immutable distro like Bluefin/Aurora or Silverblue/kinoite. Instead of being easy to figure out how to do things on them, they make it so you won’t need to, ever.

It’s a complete paradigm shift and it might not be for everyone, but in the decades I’ve been using Linux for, I had never had such a smooth experience with any distro. Everything just works and you don’t need to think about the OS anymore.

However it won’t easily fit with some of the requirements you listed.

Nice! Earlier this year I skipped on a game I had been wanting for a long time, and I skipped it because of Denuvo. I might as well buy this one just to support the removal this time.

For a moment there I interpreted the title wrong and thought people would start receiving TikTok content through amber alert systems.

There’s a movie trilogy about Musashi? How come I never heard about it before?

You’re right that the e2ee part is only about protecting the data while in transit, but that is because it’s the hardest part. Apps can also store the data in an encrypted format so that other apps won’t be able to read it.

Having control over the OS doesn’t help if the OS doesn’t understand the app’s data.

Provides a single process that can be used by all message apps so that they don’t need to implement backdoors into all of them?

Squaresoft games were so good that there was a weird full decade there where the name Square Enix still managed to get me interested into checking out games, but the games themselves never did. Eventually this too died out and I finally don’t care at all about square anymore.

It didn’t take them 10 years to come up with the hypothesis though, which is all the AI did - mixed along with other hypothesis that would also need to be tested and verified…

In the end it can increase your productivity, just saying it doesn’t do 10 years worth of work in 2 days.
