> Death Stranding is only a game by the narrowest of margins.

I can't even entertain this notion, never mind agree with it. Death Stranding and its sequel are among the best games I've ever played, and I've played several hundred, maybe thousands of games spanning every decade and genre.

With Ollama, the initial one-time setup is a little easier, and the CLI is useful, but is it worth dysfunctional templates, worse performance, and the other issues? Not to me.

Jinja templates are very common, and Jinja is not always losslessly convertible to the Go template syntax expected by Ollama. This means that some models simply cannot work correctly with Ollama. Sometimes the effects of this incompatibility are subtle and unpredictable.

Something I've always found mildly interesting is the general perception of the Windows 8 start menu changes. Folks often talked about the start menu being "removed" in Windows 8 and "re-added" in 8.1. Thing is though, it was never really removed. It mainly just went full screen and then back to a small menu in the corner. The actual functionality didn't change much. While I didn't like it, I wasn't nearly as bothered as others seemed to be. I was just kind of like, "Oh, it's full screen now. Meh."

> One underappreciated thing about Windows 8 is ... you could press the windows key, immediately start typing, and then press enter to somewhat deterministically pick the top app

I agree this is underappreciated but I believe it started in Vista and has worked pretty much the same way ever since, including in Windows 11. I acknowledge that start menu search in general is more bloated now and thus feels less snappy on slower machines. Still, for me, the specific use case you described has worked great for nearly 20 years even on modest PCs. I wonder why my experience doesn't match yours.

> I also really miss the aero look of windows 7... Eye-candy, sure, but I thought it was pretty, clean and modern looking. I am sad they moved away from it.

Me too! Aero was great. I also miss being able to make the taskbar truly black. It looked really nice coupled with a black wallpaper on an OLED display. Now you have to choose from a preset color palette. The reduced customizability of Windows 11 is frustrating.

Looks like Paint is staying, just not Paint 3D.

I think that's because they don't want email providers, Gmail in particular, scraping for purchase history

Else Heart.Break()

> Else Heart.Break() is a reimagination of the adventure game – a fantastic story set in a fully dynamic and interactive world. Instead of rigid puzzles you will learn (with the help from other characters in the game) how the reality of the game can be changed through programming and how any problem can be solved in whatever way you find suitable.

In the US, $2 bills and 50 cent coins are uncommon so it feels more special when you get them.

I've always seen it more as exaggeration/absurdity for the sake of humor than ignorant misuse of the word. Like in a cartoon when a character's eyes _literally_ pop out of their head. Of course, even if that's true, I'm sure the nuance would sometimes be lost in translation and help blur the definition in common vernacular just the same.

Witcher 3 came out on PC at the same time as consoles. CDPR has a long history with PC gaming and they tend to emphasize the PC experience. They also own GOG which is a PC game store/platform. RDR2 on the other hand was indeed a timed console exclusive.

Why is whether or not they pre-install the optional part an important distinction?

I don't think that would work, because pitching the board forward would require the wheel to accelerate to keep you upright. Also, what if it needs to warn you while you're actively accelerating (with the board already pitched forward)?

This is arbitrary. One can also prepare for the next day by working late the night before, start working later in the morning, and be just as fully up to speed and ready to go at 9:15. Standup could also just as easily be at 11:15. Why is your way superior?

Huh. I had the complete opposite experience. My girlfriend and I used to joke that the U in Wii U stands for "update". Maybe it's just because we didn't play it frequently.

MJML is terrific (haven't tried MRML) but why do you consider JSX to be a useless abstraction but not MJML?

I could have posted this comment verbatim! (Except mine was a TX.) I was poor growing up and couldn't afford a computer and it changed everything when I got the Tandy. My mother was a hairdresser. She got to talking to one of her clients about me and, long story short, her client gave me the Tandy along with a bunch of manuals and programming books. She also came to our apartment and got me started on it. Even showed me the internals. I owe a great deal to that woman!

Some things never change

Some people want dark mode for some things and light mode for others. I don't, but I know people who do.

I don't know, maybe I'm dumber than I think I am, but I've been building software for 10+ years with a lot of different tools in a lot of different environments and I really like Node. Like with all tools, it depends on the use case and the players, but I've used it with great success for BE web services (yes, at scale), CLI tools, and automation. Some of the worst and some of the best code I've ever read has been JS. It requires discipline, but that doesn't make it inherently bad.

> Made sure it went to someone that actually needed a house and not some investor looking to flip.

As someone who has been trying to buy a house on and off for a few years now, thank you for caring about this.

Ah ok. I usually use the hand brake as well, but I also park in gear so that the engine will help stop the car from moving, especially if the brake fails. I use 1st gear except when facing down a slope in which case I use reverse, for obvious reasons. I guess an argument could be made that if you're on flat ground, leaving it in neutral will protect your gears if someone were to hit your car hard enough.

SMS sucks, but it's ubiquitous. The rest of the messaging market is heavily fragmented.

Wait, does that mean you park in neutral?

Yeah, it's a recent development and it may still be in beta. It's definitely a thing though.

Paw is cross-platform now.

I come to Hacker News to avoid garbage like this.

Perhaps it wasn't a kill switch but rather a way to exempt certain organizations or countries from the effects of the malware.

Why? Investment in Tesla is probably good for SpaceX in the long term.

You seem to be under the impression that a franchisee is an employee of the franchisor. That is not the case. The franchisee lost his rights because he did not adhere to the terms of the franchise agreement. That's business. Nothing to see here.
