Anakin brought balance to the force by slaughtering all of the Jedi.

Before, thousands of Jedi, like 4(?) sith.

After, 2 Jedi, 2 sith. Perfectly balanced.

Twilight princess got a HD remaster though.

Having played all of the 2d Metroids, Super Metroid still holds up very well, even compared to the newer games. There’s less direction than what you might be used to though. Newer entries in the series tend to try to funnel you places. But if you are simply concerned about the gameplay being clunky, don’t be.

Super Metroid way ahead of its time, and the controls are extremely responsive and tight. It’s one of the reasons it’s such a popular speed game. It’s just fun to play. While basic controls are serviceable, there are many tricks you find yourself learning about as you play the game, which you just have access to, that give the movement system quite a bit of depth. (For hints, let the attract move run at the beginning of the game.)

Same tbh. Framework just works. And they do contribute back, just perhaps not as much specifically to Linux. Open source hardware is so incredibly valuable and important and rare. Honestly, if I had to choose only based on how much is contributed back, I’d still pick Framework.

Damn dude. Is your life really so pathetic that you are honestly deriving please from bad news being delivered to people who are on the opposite side of a fucking web browser debate? That’s sad. I hope things start looking up for you in the future.

“You mean I hitched my wagon to Grabthor The Wagon Destroyer, and he destroyed my wagon? This is an outrage!”

censorship, profiling, and surveillance

Also inventing evidence to scuttle anyone dangerous in the court of public opinion.

A union leader getting you down? Here’s a “leaked tape” of him sexually harassing an “anonymous whistleblower.”

Corporate democrat getting primaried by a socialist teacher? Sure would be a shame if it was “discovered” that he posts in a small dark web cp forum that has “posts going back years” and he “accidentally outed himself.”

Once generative ML gets good enough that it’s indistinguishable from legitimate evidence, it’ll be possible for anyone with that kind of power to construct whatever reality is convenient. We were always at war with Eastasia.

Because security is still a big deal. There are post quantum algorithms, but there are similar post quantum algorithms that have been proven to be flawed. It’s important to allow technology like this to mature prior to adoption.

most of these problems aren’t of any parctical importance.

Well sure, but one of them is extremely important. Factoring integers rapidly is very useful, even if it completely destroys one of the most important encryption algorithms.

Not that this computer does, or could. RSA is still safe.

In practice, it’s hard to know exactly how Reddit structures the data they have and what exactly a delete actually does and what backups they have.

That being said, it’s not out of the question that you could delete your post history, then your account, and reddit only restores your post history and not your account, leaving you unable to delete it again.
