Sooo…. Is there a “for dummies” explanation of how to migrate a mass of files from Google Drive to Nextcloud? Could someone be so kind as to point me towards such a guide?

I did notice this over a few games, I'm not sure how long this has been going on, but I definitely noticed temporary legitimate Denuvo lockout after troubleshooting and changing proton versions 2-3 times.

I'm expecting there are people here who know the details behind this, so I'd like to learn more.

It was doing the rounds some time ago:

Douglas Hofstadter wrote a rebuttal:

So ... was there actually any research?

Does anyone have a reference?

I've only ever seen the meme/anecdote.

As always, boosts for reach would be welcome.

Cheers!



Being a "Highly Cited Researcher" has gone from a sign of having impact as a researcher to a potential indicator of misconduct.

"Manipulations have been so obvious and large that, in 2024, over 2,000 researchers were removed from a HCR list containing some 6,600 names." - Lauranne Chaignon

first-pass translation seems like a reasonable thing here, as long as they’re having someone skilled translate it

I assume it’ll totally botch idioms and domain specific language though.

is anyone actually using Warp? I’ve always gotten the impression that it is trying to do too much. Is it worth testing?

@governorkeagan You take it for a spin and see for yourself. It's not FOSS, though.

let's be honest if terry was still here Linux would be obsolete by now.



english language reform idea: we should adopt gender neutral terminology from gendered languages.

in german, the word for (e.g.) "driver" is gendered: "fahrer" (masc.) or "fahrerin" (fem.). a "gender star" is sometimes used to indicate that gender is irrelevant and/or to include nonbinary people: "fahrer*innen".

i propose that instead of using (e.g.) "actor" as a gender neutral term, we should use "act*innen", and keep "actor" and "actress" as explicitly gendered. in addition, words that are already gender neutral, like "chef", should become "chefor" (masc.), "chefess" (fem.), and "chef*innen" (neut.). we can also replace newer words that are designed to be gender neutral like "chairperson" or "chair" with "chair*innen".

this would benefit nobody and make everything mildly worse, making it better than 85% of proposed english language reforms on the internet

in reply to Lynnesbian

This would have the welcome side effect that we could probably get markdown parsers to correctly parse (ignore) the *innen asterisk.
