Fuckin retcons, right? Like when The Star Wars suddenly became “Episode 4” pssshh.

All or most of the “powerful” countries being involved, usually directly. Basically take a look at the top military powers, if majority are active boots on ground, running military strategies, fighting and taking a wartime position domestically, you’ve got a world war.

Really though it’s a new-ish term, and highly subjective. WW1 was the Great War until it popped off again. For a modern thought experiment - could the war on terror be considered a world war? Much of the world’s fighting power was dragged into it to some degree, but most people would say no.

Long story short, it’s a ‘world war’ when historians decide it was.

Maybe cooking isn’t for me.

I understand, thank you. My statement kind of assumes north korea is maintaining a fork of the kernel they patch and customize. It also implies NK is one of the few organizations that would accept russian contributions into their fork, given the somewhat limited number of linux projects operating outside of the sanctions.

Maybe they can contribute to RedStar instead. Is best os for great compute.

NATO will continue expanding as more and more border countries don’t want to deal with limp dick Putin. Russia will be broken up to small territories and anything that remains of the federation will be scrapped and sold for salvage to finance rebuilding what has been lost.

Ta-ta!

🥱

How? Blood, sweat and tears mostly.

Usually it’s not recommended to start with your “dream game”. Pick an engine (I like Godot), grab some Kenney art assets, and get to work on a pong or snake clone. This can be using written tutorials, videos, or hard mode, read the docs and piece it together.

Trying to learn a language, learn an engine, learn the art pipeline, learn game dev concepts AND dream up a new game concept with custom assets simultaneously is trying to boil the ocean. Start small: add a start menu, add a scene. Make jpg appear and move using player input, add an obstacle, add a death scene/restart. Iterate from there.

Damn they made four of those turds? Series could have ended at #2, was the real high point.

Yikes, the NW-E394 is the only one here I’d consider giving to a child, and it only has 8gb of memory for $75!? Absurd.

Sansa Clip used to be my go-to for this type of use, but it doesn’t look like they make them anymore either… We’re officially living in a time it’s easier to find a CD player than a dedicated MP3. What the hell.

What are you hoping to filter with it? I have a general purpose Honeywell Insight, it works well enough for my allergies and pet dander in my apartment. I think I paid something like $200 for the unit 3 years ago, but filters are $85 a year for it - pricey but they’re widely available.

You can probably weld or jerry rig this together with clamps in a pinch, but you should probably replace. Unfortunate it looks like Toyota designed it to be one pipe - sometimes these are separate pieces that are cheaper and easier to replace.

Holy shit OP DELIEVERED. Fantastic stuff, thanks for sharing! Glad you got your opportunity to check it out.

The easiest approach would likely be “scouting” on behalf of an associate, perhaps they couldn’t make it and sent you. Take lots of pictures for your associate, and you’re not personally involved with the purchase makes it easier to handwave questions.

If you insist on pretending to be rich keep discussion light, talk about potential renovations, take pictures to send to your designer. Ask about the history of the home, dig for unique characteristics. Inquire about the area and what kind of “crowds” to expect. Don’t dress too fancy, don’t pull up in a 09 civic (park around the block and walk), and if they ask, you made a small fortune trading crypto.

I’m entering 40s and this doesn’t sound normal to me. Get a second opinion if your doctor is writing it off. Don’t get me wrong, as I got older my joints are sore and pop in the morning. My back can’t handle some sports I used to enjoy. You’re too young to be struggling with jars and shoes in my completely uninformed nonprofessional opinion.
