Great, I say, with kids in middle school, here in Sweden. Problem has not been the hardware,

Partly software, due to it is shit “it must be cheap”. Example, where I failed the test, the word training software provided me with the word for “Farfar” which is specific for dads father in Swedish, I wrote grandfather…“wrong” it is grandad… Ok let’s try again…Granddad…“wrong” it shall be “grandad” No development. It is as dumb as 1998 bash code…

But first and foremost… The process, the school organisation does not have a single way of communicating to the kids, in our school, each teacher used different platforms to communicate to the kids ie teams, WhatsApp mail etc. They did not understand or like the provided software they should use etc.computer system knowledge is at a very low level. I blame the organism behind the main keyboard, most teachers does not have the right competency to teach with the tool at hand.

You have a beautiful tool that can hold worlds knowledge, but it means shit when the mentor does not know or even refuse to embrace the the tool and develop how to use, it then it does not help.

It like taking driving lessons from a persons that has only handled a horse.

Haha thanks, my GF had her 43rd birthday as well on the 24th, so at least she beat a Japanese mini nuke.

These are private companies that are govern and controlled by commercial incentives. And are in their all right to do so. The users are always free to change service.

But as always, conviniance beats everything. Most people don’t care or are not ready to go back. E.g. use mp3s and manually upload files to choosen device or if even supported. aux contact that was removed. Music and movie resolution loss due to streaming most people don’t care… They are frustrated when the airpod doesn’t work with Android device accept the situation and go along with their lives. Most western people download their games and do not think for a second that all games are useless when an new device is announced and the company can resell same game again even thought if thought from design to be back compatible.

Censorship are applicable for governments enforcing laws and regulations that impact what you are allowed to do or say which in many parts of the world unconstitutional. If people even put an ounce of energy to complain on their governmentns that they do on companies we would live in a better world.

Without detailed knowledge about tree logging, that looks to be too clean cut, when working in a storm.

From the article:

“Locals said they heard nothing during the night due to high winds from Storm Agnes – and woke to find the tree split from its stump.”

I would not call that a “split”.

You also need some heavy gear to fell that kind of tree, the dia of sycamore tree trunk is wide. The blade would stuck in the saw line due to the inclination of the tree. Also you would need a vehicle to get all gear there plus extra fuel if required.

Think middle of night, during a storm, also you don’t need a storm to be windy there.

Really 16 year old only?

A tip from the verge

It’s all about responsibility and that man ain’t touching that except if it will gain the brands an extra exposure.

It depends where you live, here the certification unit only check the actual exhaust, there is no law here that prohibit me to use any software to adjust my CA emissions as long it’s with in limits during testing it’s OK.

Agree to point where just calling a beta feature Autopilot is just reckless.

Softlooking features will be a thing, regardless how much we despite it. At the same time, it would terrify me knowing that vehicles around me ciuld run on homebrew software. It’s one thing if its in your home but on public roads, naaa keep that shit locked down.

I can see a future where the law enforcement are shifting from testing intoxication to running validating software checks.

My phone Hotspot is set to “How big is Liam Neesons cock”. It is fun to see people chuckle when I turn it on.

Same here, loved Link to the past, one of my first games. It’s, together with Super mario world, the game i replayed most times.

Didn’t jump on the n64 train so I missed all games that still are considered master pieces. I don’t care for them and does not share the love for them as most of gaming media portraits 3d gaming revolution.

Got old enough to both own a ps2 and GameCube and completely fell in love in Windwaker, the graphics, the feeling of world exploring, fishing for treasures, hooked it up with my Gameboy advance sp.

But it was not well received by the community so twilight princess was an complete disappointment for me when Nintendo returned to well proven n64 format. I never completed the game

I’ve tried Zelda skyward swords, it seemed promising but I hated the motion controls sooo much to the level I though it ruined the game.

I finally returned to nintendo after buying a switch last year and off course together with breath of the wild. Loved the world building and graphics, but the open world game play does not suit me, where I can run into overpowered enemies by accident and the worst game decisions to add breakable equipment… When finishing the end boss I felt I hadn’t completed the game but I didn’t care to go back and grind myself thorough endless battels to do what…

With tears of the kingdom I read that the creators had put more focus on open world concepts with creation tools and adhooks to enhance capabilities of weapons etc which isn’t my cup of tea.

Im missing the cosy feeling I got from link to the past and wind waker, BOTW was close, but my fond memory may be an illusion since Wind waker only been re-realsed for Wii U… I was certain it would have been released for the switch when I bought it but yet that hope is fading away.
