And who would the largest nodes on that blockchain be? The banks? Who could say and do whatever they conspired since they command >50% of the computing power and/or value?

The average person isn’t going to build a fucking blockchain node just to keep the deed to their house.

Exactly. These kind of things happen from time to time; hell even big corpo OSes mess up. They said they’d taken time to fix their process to prevent this problem happening again.

If it becomes a pattern I’d become concerned. So far, it was inconvenient.

Yeah, it’s not that it’s not valid for private networks, it’s that 172.16.42.x is common for WiFi Pineapples

The three stages of grief:

1. It can’t be DNS
2. There’s no way it could be DNS
3. It was DNS

That’s right, you know what’s best for everyone and if you just don’t tell the poor children that the option is even a thing, they’ll grow up happy Windows users and have lots of grandchildren for you.

Oh, windows quality? I know you are trolling.

I understand

No, no clearly don’t.

I don’t think it’s “kinda dumb” to point out the issue all, unless you’re an insufferable twatwaffle like 90% of the fucking STEM community in 2024, who can never be wrong or challenged.

Like, I’d consider myself pretty progressive, maybe even “woke” if that still has any meaning left, and even I might have just used male pronouns because I myself am male;’not for malicious reasons but just because I wasn’t thinking in that moment.

But if I was like “oh yeah, that makes sense, and cool you even did the work of fixing it for me! Merged.” and went about my day, no one would have brigaded me, no one would have posted it all over socials, there wouldn’t be blogs and articles, and I’d probably have a leg to stand on if anyone still wanted to make a big deal.

The way this dude reacted was a self-report. The community was right to push back, even if some people ended up taking it too far.

Yeah, ok? The fresh mechanics Pokemon has needed for a long time now. Also, still rounding up ‘mons to build a team to accomplish goal.

It was similar enough that Nintendo had to tell its fans to shut the hell up about it.

Palworld is the facelift Pokemon needed.

Biden, the RAVE Act guy, selling water? This empire is so fucking cooked

It does sound to me like ingesting all these different formats into a normalized database (aka data warehousing) and then building your tools to report from that centralized warehouse is the way to go. Your warehouse could also track ingestion dates, original format converted from, etc. and then your tools only need to know that one source of truth.

Is there any reason not to build this as a two-step process of 1) ingestion to a central database and 2) reporting from said database?

Man, he admitted he was guilty.

I don’t recall Nintendo trolling.

I do recall Nintendo, in the most polite and businesslike way possible, telling its incessant dickriders to stop flooding its communication channels with the breaking news that someone made a game with a Pokemon-adjacent concept.

Yeah that’s kind of the point.

(Also wtf are you smoking? “Travel the world collecting animals to be on your team” is the core concept)

SmashBurger did the same and also had a spicy version that was awesome; also gone 😔

Those printer instructions are called Postscript and they’re the basis of PDF.

You are thinking that the printing process will rasterize the PDF and then essentially OCR/vector map it back. It’s (usually) not that complicated.

I do think the crudely painted out words offer additional comic relief, but I appreciate the clean plate as well
