It's possible the idea is putting some posts outside the protocol? There have been a bunch of ideas for different schemes for private posts though, so there are a bunch of other options.

Definitely reflects a lot of my thinking around AI as well.

Even bsky is barely tolerable for me to be frank. I'm this close to becoming a hermit and solely existing in the far off remote reaches of a small static website I occasionally update with thoughts.

No mean feat, although I hear it's gotten better since last I tried.

Playing with it a bit now. It is genuinely interesting to have RAG and embedding-based search baked into a note taking system. Yet to see if it will be super useful to me in practice.

(I don't really expect to drag anyone over to emacs, but it feels remiss not to mention some of the tools over there as possible options)

org-roam for emacs is a classic solution, but it is pretty heavyweight.
ekg is a newer (also emacs-based) tool that I'm considering trying out for myself (I haven't done zk before but the idea is starting to appeal). It also has some interesting llm integrations (embeddings, chat) if you want that.

(*The memex CONCEPT as originally described, I mean. It's not like they built it)

it would be cool to be able to exchange your own anotated link graphs with people the way the memex enabled. You can do it by making a webpage or a .md document or whatever of course, but it's not as slick as it could be.

And he's good at Crazy Taxi, so he's got that going for him too.

FixedUpdate is what you want I think? It runs once per time step. So if the frame took longer it may run multiple times to "catch up"

It wouldn't be Linux if it just worked, alas.
Still not as bad as That Time A Glibc Update Broke EAC, thank god.

If you want to just do a text-only branching story, Twine is a lovely little tool for just that!

This is just speculation, Wizardry hit Japan later and hit most of the big PCs around the same time, so. Bigger market? Also, console-side Wizardry hit the Famicom three years before it hit the NES, and in the wake of Dragon Quest, which had exploded in a way it didn't here in the US.

I mean, it is worth remembering that Wizardry did fairly well over here too... for an Apple II game. The PC market of the early 80s was relatively small and Apple were just one player, albeit probably the biggest at the time.

I was honestly lukewarm on Boltgun, but this is hilarious.

This is objectively a terrible decision but it brings me such joy.

Monopoly. Outsells everything else, hugely popular with people who aren't really into board games.

But I thought Microsoft abandoned Office Works?

Graydon always does a great job laying out the bigger picture and extending credit to the many people and groups responsible for the project's success and the various inspirations. This post is no exception and it's something I really admire about his work.

The fix is in, Archlinux just doesn't have it in repo yet.

Yeah that's probably it.

I'm not sure how the goalpost moves further here but I guess it's moving.
