Minecraft has a lot of bugs or otherwise surprising behaviours that parts of the community have come to rely upon. This means that most non-vanilla minecraft servers aren't 100% drop in replacements. You have to make a decision what behaviours you want vs the performance and simplicity gains you will gain.

For example there there are tricks that allow you to delete bedrock blocks. Which then lets you either get onto the roof of the nether, or drop below the bottom of the world. Not all of these tricks will then work depending upon the specific minecraft server.

Another example is that in vanilla you can "bomb" people with experience orbs, the sheer number of orbs on the screen will grind their game to a halt since there are too many objects to track and render. Some minecraft servers work around this by grouping up experience orbs into a single bigger orb. That way you have fewer orbs on screen at once.

It is correct in so far as Trader == tradesmen. But it isn't some "politically correct" thing. Also attributing political correctness to terms is often a political move in and of themselves.

> politically-correct word for ‘tradesman’

There is nothing politically correct or incorrect about it. It is just the standard term. Meanwhile in Australia they use 'Tradie' from what I understand.

mason can install them, but there isn't a way to "ensure-installed" built in. So that was a second package I needed. Then I needed a third package to configure things.

Maybe I'm missing something, but it was definitely more complicated than "just use mason".

Just migrated from Vim to NeoVim. Downloading and configuring all the various LSPs has genuinely been one of the most frustrating aspects.

You are working on project A, and project B. Project A uses python 2.6, project B uses python 3. You want a simple way to switch back and forth without reinstalling everything every time you switch between them. This setups a way to quickly and if I'm understanding correctly automatically switching between the two versions of the tool.

Replace python with many other tools from Java, node, etc.

If you are on iOS Overcast is really nice.

They can, and that is the alternative to complying. Apple wants their €€€ and to eat it too.

That was my point. Most cars don't have this issue because they use materials that don't rust as is. Why is Tesla choosing to use something that is hard to work with.

Sure the car will come out less damaged, but the pedestrians will be far more likely to die.

That is odd, never really seen rust on any of the non-stainless steal cars I encounter in my day to day life. Not unless they are really old and damaged in significantly other ways.

Waterstones and B&N are the same company.

I didn't think @ took on the "at" meaning until email came around.

Yea that is sorta what I'm talking about. The previous version didn't use Plaid and required you to manually enter everything. This forced me to be on top of it. The new Plaid version was a lot more automatic and required far less manual work, but also meant I was less involved and therefore less on top of things.

Having ADHD and Autism even something as simple as 30 mins a week can be a lot of effort when it isn't the thing I'm hyperfixating on.

Not terribly surprising. The time in my life that I was most on top of my finances was when I was using the old YNAB which required manually entering all purchases and manually reconciling your account. The effort put in to keep on top of it made me hyper aware of what I was spending and where. It was great, but it takes too much effort.

I don't know if better tooling could help, pointing out subscriptions and things like that so you can easily check if you are still using it and cancelling. How do we fix this without requiring everyone to manually keep a checkbook.

I have autism and can definitely say that my mother didn't drink diet soda. My partner has autism and I can say his mother also didn't drink diet soda. I know anecdata doesn't invalidate things like this, but I'm highly suspicious of the conclusion.

Looked it up on google/reddit. Turns out it is for DJs who remix music.

Being able to call 911 is an essential part of a phone. To the point that Apple (and I'm assuming Google) both allow calling emergency services while the phone is locked.

This is the new CEO who is taking over for Elon.

That is a really nice chart, thanks for sharing.

What is confusing me is the Netherlands. We only have about 13% adoption. I'm on one of the largest ISPs KPN and get 10/10 on IPv6 tests. Is this because I use a custom router? I'd expect it to be a lot higher since apparently KPN supports IPv6.

> On the other hand, vim and neovim are almost the same thing, and wherever they diverge, it is always to the detriment of vim.

They are quite different at this point and personally I prefer vim over neovim. I've never gotten NeoVim to work satisfactorily. I've had issues with the async setup where the backend and frontend start having issues with each other or lag. So on. Personally I find vim to be a lot simpler to work with and MacVim in particular to just be a perfect GUI for me.

Of course YMMV. The point being is that there are a many of us that prefer normal Vim over the NeoVim work. That's okay. Its also okay that others prefer NeoVim over Vim. There is nothing wrong with that. What there is something wrong with is the way that many NeoVim people are reacting to this.

Orcas are dolphins. Do you mean bottle nose dolphins?

Because it is fine for a bit, but long term having a LHD vehicle in a RHD country (and vice-versa) is annoying and causes issues. I speak from experience having moved to a LHD country from a RHD country with a RHD vehicle.

And this right here is why the GDPR was created.

In neither the US nor UK would your children be taken away if you protested the Iraqi war.
