In other news, their version is now a wrapper around @andrewlock.bsky.social's fantastic library.

Can I do anything about this? Nope, because it was MIT code to begin with.
Do I want to do anything about this? Nope.

Here's a commit where they removed the last mentions of my name, including links to the NuGet repo for my version of the library:

In fact, if you take a look at the history you'll see my name all over it. Presumably because they brought the git history along with their commits.
For example: github.com/audaciaconsu...

Now take a look at the initial commit for an (at the time) closed source copy of the library: github.com/audaciaconsu...
Literally, copy/paste with each file.

"But Jamie, you can alter git history," I hear you cry.
Indeed. But alsoobserve my first blog post about it, published on my (now defunct) blog about .NET Core.

Having only played the OG Persona 4 (haven't played Golden), I'm looking forward to Revival. P4 is one of my favourite standalone JRPGs.

As a dev, who uses AI in is daily work to help with the toil-based tasks, I say
HA!
I guess it depends on the definition of the (incredibly vague) "soon".

My favourite definition of "privilege" comes from Night Watch by Terry Pratchett:
"Privilege, which just meant private law."

Oh no. Post Season 4 Margret was great, and became a fast favourite character of mine too.

Actually, reverse that: it's more like Hollywood asking the pirates for permission would kill the movie industry.

Does this mean that asking Hollywood for permission would kill the piracy industry too?

The final, and more crucial, requirement is that it has to be less than 500-650 GBP as they're on a VERY tight budget.
Help me, you glorious nerds.

At least 16GB of RAM (because Windows), but I have no idea when it comes to processors. I'm thinking AMD or Snapdragon, looking at everything going on with Intel right now.
With that said, I can imagine Intel machines being cheaper right now because of the Intel situation.

Hard requirement on TPM2.0 because they're buying for longevity.
This person will be doing web browsing, email, and actual Microsoft Office suite.
LibreOffice is great, but they receive Office docs that DON'T open with LibreOffice.

I need some help, I have a family member who wants a new laptop. It _NEEDS_ yo be Windows 11 because I'm not introducing them to Linux-based OSes or supporting them with Linux-based OSes.
All of their workflow REQUIRES Windows, and I'm not going to support running Windows apps on Linux.

NAS devices are cheap enough these days. Pair that with some cheap, NAS specific, spinning drives, and you have a cheap local copy of everything.
Clouds based storage is super cheap these days, too. Amazon S3 (or many of the resellers like BackBlaze) are recommended by a lot of folks.

Whenever I'm doing a perfect, no save run, it's either one of these very Hunters or the final Tyrant that gets me.
I feel both as the same kind of failure, too.
