DefineOutside··on Minecraft Running on Asahi Linux with Open Source GPU Drivers
This is impressive for 12 render distance (You can see this by D: [render distance] in F3). Lower resolution and looking upwards does help though. Also, minecraft does a draw call for every single text in F3 which significantly lowers FPS. This might be playable at 60 FPS with sodium (beats optifine in performance) and a lowered view distance.

I've get around 6 hours on asahi linux. MacOS battery is at least twice as good - not sure since I've never ran out of battery on MacOS. Sleeping works on macOS so I always have to remember to turn off the laptop on linux. Good for taking notes though, the CPU dips to 40 FPS on desktop sometimes and can't play videos.
DefineOutside··on Just a bunch of idiots having fun: a photo history of the LAN party
Even in all online FPS games, due to the client predicting movement - there's still peeker's advantage due to your player being slightly behind on other's screens, so you see enemies before they see you.

This doesn't matter for the majority of players but that's why high skilled CSGO and other shooters must still use LAN for high level play. There's no entirely defeating peeker's advantage and other artifacts from latency.

Valorant, league of legends, and CSGO have their own CDN to try to help with connections. Can't really comment on other game's netcodes because they vary so much. For example, BF1 devs removed lag compensation entirely. League has no lag compensation since it's not a shooter. CSGO lag compensates a fixed amount so consistent ping is more important than fixed ping.

even with every disease cured and without aging, you still will die by some random event unless you hide away in a bunker - in which case the bunker will eventually collapse and you will still die

Repl.it is being used at my college for the programming languages. It's nice to share code and not have to setup a programming environment, but I'll admit to at some point simply viewing the forks of an assignment as all the forks are public, and copying some of their code to get my assignment to work.

The usernames don't have to respond to a specific user on repl.it so I guess there's no violations as long as students don't use their real names.

They should also ban creating digital art, as digital art takes less effort than paper.
DefineOutside··on Cloudflare Warp
warp seems to stabilize my connection and 3x the download speed since I have 8% packet loss typically. I'm somewhat of an edge case though since this level of packet loss isn't normal.
