    I’d argue you still have one skeleton if you lose limbs or teeth.

    Amount of skeletons is an integer representing the anount of bone structures holding and protecting human body (or whatever’s left of it).

    The real question is, how much of which parts of skeleton can we lose with it still being skeleton instead of a set of bones?

    Recommending Linux is good; forcing it down someone’s throat is not.

    If parents are just comfy using Windows, it’ll get them super frustrated when they’ll face new issues coming from Linux use, as you just can’t turn Linux into Windows and they never asked for it.

    Now, if they complain about all the shit Windows throws at them, you can offer an alternative.

    Besides what another commenter noted about indistrialization being product of capitalism and then fierce competition, here’s one more thing:

    Do you see all those green activists buying reusable bags? Taking their bottles, recycling everything? Well, this has already been there in the past, and most notably - in socialist countries. Pretty much till its death USSR, for example, heavily favored reusable things, there just weren’t plastic bags and plastic bottles and all that waste, and recycling, especially of glass and metal and paper, was a super normal thing and people got money/trade-in for that.


  • Ah, that name was left from when they’ve been open-source, which us why I advocate for the emergence of GPL-licensed projects.

    The open-source license for GPT model was very relaxed, which OpenAI took advantage of and, once it could afford their own programmer staff, closed the code with all the contributions all the programmers from all over the world have made.

    It’s an extremely dick move, and it was repeated by Google, too.


  • People are crazy when they promote closed-source AI (okay, okay, generative model) projects like ChatGPT, Bard etc.

    This is literally one of the most important technologies of the future, and after all the times technology companies screwed them (us) up big time and monopolized the Internet, they go into the same trap again and again.

    First they surrendered the free Internet, now they surrender the new frontiers.

    Wake up, people. Go HuggingFace, advocate for free AI, and ideally - for a GPL one. We cannot afford for this part of our future to be taken away from us.







  • I kinda want to go way beyond what gmod offers, adding properties to every material and rendering players able to do whatever they want with it. There shouldn’t be a scripted “balloon”. There should be a property of latex to expand without breaking up to a certain degree, and there should be gas pressure physics to calculate how much does this latex expand. And then if that’s, say, helium, calculate the upward momentum of it based on air pressure, and the weight of piece of latex, and also calculate if there are any leakages. That sort of thing.


  • A sandbox, but with realistic in-world physics and ability to do anything.

    Wanna burner? Boom, take this tin can, make some holes, put in alcohol and burn. Wanna learn how telephone works? Construct it yourself! Game should simulate real-world physics and just store properties of various objects and materials, allowing you to completely unbound from game mechanics and developer’s intention. Maybe you’d literally be able to conduct scientific experiments in game, and this would be a great in silico model. Maybe you’d be able to understand how things around you work. Maybe you’d be able to reverse engineer other player’s creations. Possibilities are endless, you’re having an entire world in your pocket.

    …but yeah, we’d barely have enough developers and computer resources for that.
