Dehydration has been shown to exacerbate the symptoms of mental illness, so it certainly won't make them worse!

Enjoy it! We're going the opposite way now. One of the major downsides of living in the southern hemisphere is people forgot why the holiday season landed in the middle of winter. It was to give people something to look forward to and help them through the dark months... There is NOTHING like that during the winter here. It can be pretty bleak!

It's looking like it's going to be a good year for gaming.

Games I'm looking forward to:

Subnautica 2 The Outer Worlds 2 Death Stranding 2 (possibly. I'll wait for reviews) GTA 6 (Assuming there is an offline, kernal DRM free mode) Solarpunk Paralives

You need to be drinking water. That's the scariest part of this for me. I realise this probably plays into the delusions, so if it helps you can look at my comment history. I've made reference to it a few times already: I live in New Zealand, and I've never even been to the states. Please figure the water thing out. Being dehydrated will not be making anything easier, and it's the simplest problem to solve. Would you feel better drinking filtered water?

hold on hold on hold on, it DOWNPLAYS the threat!?

I should donate to Wikipedia

Do you consider longjohns underwear? I always wear underwear under longjohns

On the code side of things: OpenRA is C#, and the original is C++

It's not so much that they're different languages, but more that they're different code structures. OpenRA will be object oriented, while the original will be more imperative.

You can think of it like trying to fit a gearbox from a Honda into a Toyota (I know nothing about cars so please take this metaphorr with a massive grain of salt)

They might do the same thing, but they'll do it in completely different ways. You couldn't just copy and paste things directly, but you can still absolutely learn from it...

which is why I'm kinda sad Tiberian Sun isn't on the list. I'm dying for the OpenRA version, and I'd bet having the original source would speed things up

eta: I also see assembly files in there, so I don't know that the original is actually cpp. Those might just be generated off the assembly files, IDK. Everything else I've said still applies though

eta2: Nah, it's definitely cpp. there's a few assembly files, but mostly cpp.

Does anyone know where to go to get an idea of the state of the Tiberian Sun mod? I had a look at the github, but short of downloading it and trying it, it's not very clear how far along they are

So at the very least a spammer, but what's the grift?

"internet parents" is wholly unsearchable without some kind of proximity syntax.

If anybody is looking for a side project, build something that allows you to use advanced search syntax to search the fediverse. Please?

No, you've gone too far in the other direction now. The protests can work. Your other comments show that you seem to think it has to be all or nothing, but Just because it's not bankrupting Bezos in one fell swoop, doesn't mean it's pointless. If we even make a dent in their metrics, they'll notice.

My issue here is that everyone seems to be misinterpreting me as whining about not wanting to participate because I'm gonna miss my show. When what I actually said, in effect, was "Damn, I'm gonna miss my show. Oh well."

The fuck is wrong with the threadiverse today, gods damn!
