they are so much more than that. Builder for example has a full tree view of your project, instant compiling (well, instant in the sense that the compile button is always accessible and you don't have to leave the application to do it), live preview for markup languages, Git integration, unit tests, profiling, and several other things I can't remember right now. so no, an IDE is an entirely different beast from a text editor

one Discord server i was on had a Minecraft server with a specific mod installed that allowed cracked copies to join, and it allowed people to lock names in with a PIN so people couldn't impersonate each other. i can't remember which mod it was though

oh, good point about console games. i wonder if you could use multiplayer on a pirated console game with crossplay

the ones I build. I have to admit the Switch is really fun, but at the end of the day it's just another DRM machine. I'd rather have a rig sitting somewhere that I built to my exact specifications, that I can connect to from wherever, and that will run whatever I want

doesn't the Bible specifically warn about people like Trump?

For people will be lovers of self, lovers of money, proud, arrogant, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, heartless, unappeasable, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not loving good, treacherous, reckless, swollen with conceit, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having the appearance of godliness, but denying its power. Avoid such people.

— 2 Timothy 3:2–5, English Standard Version

on the other hand, there could be an enemy of my enemy situation, because everyone in the Middle East hates Israel (and for good reason too: not only is Israel run by genocidal fucks, but they stole everyone's land). it's not impossible that Jordan, Egypt, and neighboring countries would gang up on Israel.

why is this an L? Linux is fully capable of 4k playback. any Linux user (with a 4k screen) can go to YouTube and watch a 4k video in full quality. Linux support is there, the bandwidth is probably there, the hardware power is there (Asahi Linux is for Apple hardware), so the problem is either Netflix or DRM in general

don't forget the part after "open crypto app" where you find out your favorite coin crashed overnight and you now have 29 cents

I'm not gonna speculate on what you're buying, but I'm afraid you're gonna get involved with shady people no matter what if you're using cryptocurrency. the entire industry is in the midst of a cascade failure thanks to Three Arrows Capital going toes up, and con artists and thieves are cashing in. cryptocurrency exchanges are using their own customers' money for not-so-good purposes, stablecoins are rapidly losing their pegs, and it seems like a bridge gets cracked every other day. my advice? if you don't want to deal with shadiness, you really shouldn't use cryptocurrency at all.

Outer Wilds: Echoes of the Eye. i can handle horror just fine, but Echoes of the Eye is on entirely another level of horror than most everything else. i was only able to complete about a third of it before i got too psyched out to continue

I can sort of see the appeal if it were able to plug into your smart home or something so it could respond to queries like "where's the dog", but as a general knowledge assistant it's worse than useless (unless it magically doesn't confabulate anything anymore)
