What was “if we don’t make this code more efficient, it won’t run on modern computers”, turned into “we don’t need to make this code efficient because modern computers will be able to run it”
Isn’t it amazing how birds reverse engineered airplanes?
This is framed like 80 generations is a small number, but that’s huge. Culture and civilization moves so quickly that even 3 generations ago life is barely recognisable. I can’t even imagine what life was like 40 generations ago.

The good news is you get a four hour erection.

Privacy@lemmy.ml•Microsoft is silently installing Copilot onto Windows Server 2022English
0·2 years agoPeople in this thread seem to be missing this point.
This is windows server, not windows 11. The consequences is not “I’ll have an annoying taskbar icon on my home computer”, this is enterprise level interference that could affect large systems and thousands of users.
Linux Mint isn’t an alternative to windows server.
The writer’s strike definitely killed it
Wasn’t it supposed to be an anthology series, where each season was a new cast? But then they were like “hey everyone loves these characters! Quick make up some stuff so they all have to stick around.” Then we got weird shit like that character who has a bunch of twins or something, and psycho serial killer Syler joins the team.

It’s a bit like Warcraft without the supernatural stuff. You have to make a functional town that has farming, stock logistics, weapons manufacture, etc. and then you also have to win against a nearby kingdom.
The mechanics are so broken. You can usually just wait it out for your enemy to run out of resources (to be fair it was the same in Starcraft) but every other level was a battle in an open field, and it was very hard to manage the actions of your army.


Honestly it sounds like you’ve got a network fault. What you’re describing is not normal.
