@ale1735187 @TheGingerBill I believe bill is mostly talking about closed source software. How do I compile fortnite or photoshop from source?

@TheGingerBill Linux always catered to the more technical user base and generally didn’t care about making fancy guis or easy to use binaries in favor of command line and compiling packages from source yourself. Nice to see more folks entering the ecosystem lately.

I don't know if a lot of people have thought why this happened.
To make Linux viable for the layman, Valve had to make Proton (derived from Wine) so that Win32 API became the first and only stable ABI on Linux.
Why did Linux Distro devs not care about stable ABI historically?

@spendergrsec Reading that thread made me curious how much % blame you'd assign to (1) the finder/reporter and (2) the linux reporting process
English
Can we limit the number of HN posts where none of the commenters have a clue what they're talking about to one a week? I don't have the energy to explain the security@/linux-distros situation everyone apparently skipped over from the past years.
English
@w_s_gosset @spendergrsec @LukeDashjr The poc was published without patches available for distros. They reported it to linux security, and neither said anything to distros. Distro maintainers learned at the same time as you and scrambled to patch

English
@spendergrsec @LukeDashjr I did read on their site or their company's X a/c this morning a note that they deliberately kept it quiet in public until patches were ready.
Privately they hit everyone relevant with the Five-Bell alarm.
English
Upstream's covering up of security information they're aware of at time of commit is directly related to why your distros have no fixes for the copy.fail vuln. Completely irresponsible.
English
@vxunderground @scriptjunkie1 Apparently distro maintainers werent informed (not by linux security nor the reporter) and didnt patch before the POC was publically released

@toavahi_ @Fish_andChipper @TaroNuke A key aspect of the question is guessing how others will respond (your loved ones, friends, a non insignificant portion of society, etc). Modelling the responses of others. Any reframing will heavily change that (will a 5 year old tie themselves to the tracks? Etc)
English
@Fish_andChipper @TaroNuke The choice is still binary, red/blue, tie/don't tie
English
this is the most "so you hate waffles" ass interpretation of the original hypothetical to the point where it is actually a different question
SummoningSalt@summoningsalt
A train is coming down a track. Everyone on Earth has the choice to either tie themselves to the track, or not. If more than 50% of people choose to tie themselves to the track, the train turns around and doesn't run them over. Yes or no - do you tie yourself to the track?

@Cam16301 @cloud__alter An 8 year old who didn't know how to read. A busy 40 year old mid-work who didn't take the button seriously. A senile 70 yr old. A 25 yr old who didn't speak english. Etc etc
English
@cloud__alter Okay but give me a single reason why anyone would press blue?
English
Everyone presses blue = Everyone survives
Everyone presses red = Everyone survives
Most people press blue = Everyone survives
Most people press red = Red survives, but straight up all the blues get killed
Red is beneficial to only you, you don't even save anyone by choosing it
MrBeast@MrBeast
Everyone on earth takes a private vote by pressing a red or blue button. If more than 50% of people press the blue button, everyone survives. If less than 50% of people press the blue button, only people who pressed the red button survive. Which button would you press? BE HONEST.

@nonetosee @ALazyUniverse @Jaereku "the translation is indeed the translators translation" this is how I understand the "my comics" quote, and it strikes me as self evidently true?
English
@nonetosee @ALazyUniverse @Jaereku Hypothetically "re:zero" by translator A would be a different work than "rezero" by translator B.Hence, you could call one A's re: zero and the other B's re:zero.This does not in any way erase the author from the equation, but the translation is indeed the translators translation
English
As you grow up and think about art more you realize there is quite a bit of truth to this. Our experiences are immensely shaped by translators, for better or worse, often outweighing the base text in their influence on us
Don Tworry@nonetosee
@autopilotgod There's this smug superiority among many translators particularly of Japanese works where they think they're better than the original creators.
English
@nonetosee @ALazyUniverse @Jaereku Notice the quotes. I don't think the intention here is to say "I am the sole (or even biggest) creative mind behind this final work". It's to say that there is a non trivial amount of creative/artistic work done by the translator, such that a different one would write smthn else
English
@Daiz42 I do think there's something to be said for works to try and be consistent in how they handle things like this or the translation of proper nouns

Re: Zero News by Ice@rezero_ice
@ChibiReviews Also, it's so jarring to randomly start localising them after three seasons.
English
Untranslated JP honorifics in an English script only make any sense with a cast or setting that is explicitly Japanese in-universe and that is obviously not the case with an entirely different fantasy world. "King-sama" or "Marquis-dono" just comes off ridiculous in English
Chibi Reviews@ChibiReviews
We need to have a conversation about the cultural erasure of honorfics We always saw "San", "chan", "sama", "kun" in anime, but now we dont. They are now replaced with Mister or Lady. Like wtf
English
@Daiz42 @crim479 @inkblotPrincess "keikaku means plan" and its consequences have been a disaster for the understanding of translation within the anime fandom
English
@crim479 @inkblotPrincess And replicating the source language experience for the target language audience is exactly what a translation of a piece of fiction should aim for. The purpose of fiction is to elicit emotions, so any translation that wants to be faithful should also aim to elicit emotions.
English
You have to be a little dumb to read this as a boasting of personal superiority to the original writers and not just a fairly simple truism about the nature of translation.

@autopilotgod There's this smug superiority among many translators particularly of Japanese works where they think they're better than the original creators.

@LifeformDigi True but not really a crunchyroll or "antimale dub" issue, its an industry issue. Its not like CR can legally stream stuff in japan if the IP owners wont sell them the rights. Most people would agree geoblocking is dumb, but so is conflating issues and blaming the wrong entity
English
"Broadcast licenses are regional by design."
have you ever considered this is a stupid design
Geoff Thew@G0ffThew
These people are unbelievably stupid and unserious. Broadcast licenses are regional by design. None of the Japanese TV stations & streaming services want the Japanese audience accessing all of their exclusive shows on a US platform. This is obvious if you think for two seconds.

@MurkaDurkah @ZMilchman Is AoE2 the one you would recommend to someone who hadn't played any of them?

Esports spectators are hilarious. I love AoE2 but a traditional sports fan would've anticipated that and protected the bucket. Skill issue.

@VnX_NeiRiZz @HuskyGoalie @bkeyzer_ Depends what you mean by better. TTL is probably the one with the most participants and uses more standard RM settings. Redbull I think has the biggest top 1 prize but it's EW settings which are basically only for redbull and not the standard. Hera won TTL too though

@HuskyGoalie @bkeyzer_ But like we say this cause there is no better event for AOE4 but aren’t there better events than this for AOE2 ?
