@buddingmonkey @AndyMasley @James41544852 We don’t. We mine galena ore and use flux in smelters to burn off the sulphur to make lead oxide, then blast furnaces to burn off CO.
Extreme heat, natural or by smelter is a prerequisite.
I’m certain if the rock is melting, you’ve got bigger problems than lead poisoning.

Learning via my comments that a ton of people are under the impression that solar panels pollute the land they are on. This seems to be completely fake but a lot of people believe it anyway. Like where would the pollution even come from?

I’m wanting to get some folk together to talk about the state of vr for an upcoming podcast episode. In your opinion, who is a voice in the XR space/community you see as someone who you trust and has insight into the industry.

I love that the most advanced AI humanity has ever created is an 80’s basement dwelling nerd with a hyper fixation on weird little guys.

gpt-5.5 prompt for codex seems to have a duplicated line trying to get it to not talk about creatures? Never talk about goblins, gremlins, raccoons, trolls, ogres, pigeons, or other animals or creatures unless it is absolutely and unambiguously relevant to the user's query.

Electronification exhibit G
Nicolas Zullo@NicolasZu
Ok you might say I am Codex-pilled, I know But a player shared a save with me where - he reached 80.000 Zombies Per Minute - he automated a super impressive base (look at the minimap!) Buttery smooth 100+ fps on a WEB BROWSER. > And I just followed the tip in the quote tweet

The electronification of games marches on

That moment when you boot into the main menu of your childhood.. Cross-compiled Warsmash (a LibGDX-based Warcraft III engine reimplementation in Java) to JavaScript using TeaVM so the whole game runs directly in the browser, with map files served from OPFS. Still some quirks left but great progress. Credits to Retera for his hard work. #Warcraft3 #RetroGaming #Gamedev #TeaVM #LibGDX #WebGL #Java #OpenSource #BrowserGaming #IndieDev #RTS

Come play Sporelando! This is a super fun dimension, and we really enjoyed making it!

@MsPeach2850 @BenDover6662 @JakeSherman There is literally no way to draw a map in Mass that grants republicans one rep.
English
@BenDover6662 @JakeSherman Picked this fight? I dare you to do some research into the states YOUR party already gerrymandered over the years: Mass, Conn, Maryland, Vermont, and many more. 0 Republican reps. Your party is the party of gerrymandering. Even Grok agrees!

JEFFRIES STATEMENT, with a warning for Florida.
“If Florida Republicans proceed with this illegal scheme, they will only create more prime pick-up opportunities for Democrats, just as they did with Trump’s dummymander in Texas. We will aggressively target for defeat Mario Díaz-Balart, Maria Elvira Salazar, Carlos Giménez, Kat Cammack, Anna Paulina Luna, Laurel Lee, Cory Mills and Brian Mast. We are prepared to take them all on, and we are prepared to win.
“Maximum warfare, everywhere, all the time.”

I have found myself doing this so many times. It's like looking in a mirror.
I'm sure it annoys people, and I try to keep it under control. The older I get the more the filter lets through.

A green GitHub graph is a bad sign for gamedevs. IYKYK
Dan@aidaniil
github is not a huge indicator for me, but why even bother applying to a founding eng role with this commit graph?

@buddingmonkey Notice it's left hand. Can ignore menu events on left.

We tried sock puppets and the first thing everyone does is talk to themselves and activate the menu. I hope he figured out a good way to handle that.
Looks awesome!

@buddingmonkey No, they are asking for every type of games still. And they always were.
Escape from Tarkov is still very hot and is not exactly a relaxing game. Most meme games are stressful and horror themed. Not relaxing either.
Competitive is alive. Coop is even more alive.
English
Competitive is dead! The people demand games that let them actually relax!

Really beautiful thing my friend Aron made about our beloved Norm Macdonald. He directed a lot of Smiling Friends, so it’s no surprise the animation is gorgeous. You wouldn’t believe the amount of time and care that went into this
Aron Fromm@aronfromm
A little short I made about Norm.

@buddingmonkey Did you specify in the listing that they actually had to be human?

Posted a Data Analyst role and got so many fake applications. I don't know what the grift is here? Remote workers trying to get a job they automate?

In business school we talked a lot about if a product was a “commodity” or not; i.e. is there low switching cost and little product differentiation.
This theory only works in a world where all competitors have equal information and there is no intellectual property.
