does it work, or it's another "let's ship it now, fix it later" like Fedora 43 ?

I keep seeing “WebProNews” popping up, and thought the writing was odd. Using one site, then citing multiple others that source the same site. Same across many articles.

Turns out it’s AI generated, they forgot to remove the ending note from the AI 🤦

in reply to Liam @ GamingOnLinux 🐧🎮

So many sites that show up in searches are generated now, and it really sucks. It's worse than the old recipes sites, because it fills in the most generic garbage before even lying to you about what you searched for in the first place.

i'm helping someone make a mod that adds a "soldiers estate" to the game. i barely even know what that entails, and yet the mod syntax is so simple, and the jetbrains plugin is so good, that i'm making rapid progress despite having played the game for less than an hour.

every estate has an icon. it's a coloured triangle with a black background and some imagery depicting that estate's "vibe" (e.g. 🙏 for the clergy estate). here's my icon for the soldiers estate

fun little quirk with #eu5 modding.

so we're making an estate privilege (bonus power granted to a faction) that's bad, and it's automatically granted to certain nations at game start. because this is a bad privilege that's mean to simulate some historical accuracy stuff (not my wheelhouse, i'm just writing the code), we don't want the player to be able to manually grant the privilege. the only way to get it should be through the forced game start event.

i tried setting the privilege to always be ungrantable, but that caused the startup script to be unable to grant it. of course.

i looked into how the existing privileges in this style work. turns out, if you make a privilege require itself to be already granted in order to grant it, the script can grant it, but the player can't manually grant it.

why does it work like that? beats me

You said you’re using the AE-1 again after using a Pentax(?) for a year or so.

How do they compare for you? Anything you especially like on one or the other?

in reply to Palm Oil Detectives

I knew about East Timor but not about West Papua. That is interesting and horrifying.
in reply to Palm Oil Detectives

I'm Indonesian, and I'm on west Papua people's side if they want to liberate themselves from Indonesia. Believe me about that. But from what I've seen on your post, the way you express your think, I think you don't know what actually happens.

Brilliant story! This is what resistance is all about!

Eugene Lazowski and the Truth Behind the Fake Epidemic That Saved a Polish Town


It began with a rumour. Years after the war ended, stories started circulating about a Polish doctor who had supposedly saved thousands of Jews from the gas chambers by inventing a false epidemic. Newspapers repeated it. A documentary crew went looking for it. A myth formed around the idea that one man and one clever medical trick had preserved a large Jewish population from certain death.

The truth is more nuanced, grounded in the very specific nature of life in occupied Poland, in the habits of the German authorities, and in the slow and sometimes uncomfortable way historical memory evolves. Eugene Lazowski did save people. Many of them. But not in the precise way the legend later claimed.
