On account of the election, you can basically be sure that passenger rail will not happen to any extent any time soon. Expect bigger cars and more highways instead, as this is what is outlined in Project 2025.

Incredibly bleak.

I don’t doubt him being a Nazi.

I think his Nazism is basically orthogonal to this - everyone and their grandmother who relies on the American empire for anything is kissing the ring at the moment, Nazi or not.

Are we supposed to be surprised that someone in Ukraine - a country at war, highly dependent on support from the U.S to continue to stand up to its invader - now appeals to the new hand that can either feed them or cut them off?

Square-Cube Law strikes again

Unironically yes

lmfao what

3 seconds is the guideline I’ve been taught here in Sweden, but yeah. Riding too close is crazy dangerous and I don’t understand why people keep doing it.

For someone who’s never played EVE, what does a safe spot do? Are you unable to be attacked in it, or just less likely to be detected?

This is the real explanation. Couple that with a push in the late 90s/early 2000s to roll out high-speed unmetered internet in the form of ADSL and later fiber.

Gotcha!

Well, I’m not in a Balatro-period right now, but when the itch comes back I’ll probably buy it for mobile as well.

Are you aware of any platform affordances that have been made for mobile in this release, or is it basically the same as the unofficial ports you can DIY?

Doesn’t quite seem to be out on Android yet, at least not in my market. I could pre-register and have it download automatically when it’s out, though.

It didn’t list a price and said there was an in-app purchase, anyone know what that’s about? Will I be able to use the copy I bought for PC or what?

Anyway, this is great. Granted, I’ve been playing Balatro on mobile for many months already, but an officially supported version is even better.

Testing in prod is a power move honestly. Rock star-level

S-tier soundtrack on THPS2, hard agree OP

Not saying there’s any reason to switch, but I believe you can load CSV’s into sqlite.

Datasette would be something that I would try for CSV’s as well, that seems like an interesting piece of technology I haven’t had reason to use yet.

Finally there’s always Jupiter Notebook and any respectable DataFrame-solution.

Not to knock spreadsheet-solutions too much - I certainly see their value and use them frequently - but if I had to do something that warranted writing VBA, I’d probably reach for a tool I could combine with some form of VCS like Git at least.

Kotlin-style async is pretty neat, ngl.

You can’t deny that it correctly predicted the most likely token in this case.
