  • A different kind of "public surveillance". Not with surveillance and technology but through people.

  • who discuss the language on Reddit

    oooh, you weren't talking about the videogame Rust, lol

    Given OP was about the videogame Warsow, I guess I defaulted to the videogame Rust instead of the programming language Rust - even though, obviously, that game is not FOSS

  • Go to the homepage and click Samwise :D

  • What is NetHack?

    NetHack is a single player dungeon exploration game that runs on a wide variety of computer systems, with a variety of graphical and text interfaces all using the same game engine. Unlike many other Dungeons & Dragons-inspired games, the emphasis in NetHack is on discovering the detail of the dungeon and not simply killing everything in sight - in fact, killing everything in sight is a good way to die quickly. Each game presents a different landscape - the random number generator provides an essentially unlimited number of variations of the dungeon and its denizens to be discovered by the player in one of a number of characters: you can pick your race, your role, and your gender.

  • What made it "a decade ahead"?

    I've never seen one in action.

  • I still don't see them losing. no idea where you get that from. Russia is on its last leg. Economy, citizen dissatisfaction, even Russian war propaganda bloggers voice significant concern about Russias state and losses.

    Ukraine still holds their lines, and just secured their huge EU loan.

    Meanwhile, Russia sells its gold reserve, has mass closure of companies, record deficit in the public and linked private sectors. And their central refinery 1500 km from the front is on fire. Their oil exports aren't gonna get any better.

  • These reports always feel pretty depressing. Especially the colored map as well.

  • Falling behind Germany in artillery shell production and behind Ukraine in press freedom in the same month? Tragic.

    Ukraine rising 7 ranks during wartime is impressive.

  • Surely memory prices hit consoles the same. Unless you specifically meant making the switch now is expensive.

    I've been on PC for decades, I don't think I've ever paid 2500, and never bought "bad" hardware.

    The Steam Box releasing this year may very well be a great alternative for "easy setup" and "easy fire-up". A PC with its open ecosystem, but a default OS that is much like consoles, a gaming platform frontend.

  • Imagine they eventually drop their own ai and remain a smartphone company.

  • Protected area but these kinds of activities. I'm confused. Allowing that is the opposite of protection.

    I wonder how the subsidies compare to those for more healthy fishing. Current seems like a tragedy.

    Good to read about phase out, but even now four more years seems quite long. I guess it's a matter of which side you look at it from.

  • Even Sirski is forced to admit that the UA is shrinking, while the number of Russian forces in the field is growing.

    Yet they're still successfully defending and countering. Which was my point. So I don't see how that was incorrect.

    Yet Russian oil exports continue to grow.

    Where do you source this from?

    https://energyandcleanair.org/march-2026-monthly-analysis-of-russian-fossil-fuel-exports-and-sanctions/

    Ukraine’s drone strikes have reduced Russian oil exports at Baltic ports by 53% as of the end of March

  • Maybe we all have to train being able to liste and talk at the same time, like interpreters/translators.

  • Russia has employed lying in propaganda in and out of the context of war since the beginning and before it. I don't see that as any meaningful measure. You have to look for the facts and indications beyond the propaganda without being distracted by the propaganda or trying to meta-analyze it. Both sides will try to make their spins, and try to exaggerate and paint to the maximum of their ability in their respective environments.

    For Russia, smoke screening is part of its narratives and political defense. I haven't noticed such systematic lying beyond what I would expect in wartime propaganda from Ukraine.

    Press landscape is its own share of issues and part of what makes propaganda so important, effective, and necessary.

    Ukraine has losses, but, with its limited resources, Ukraine is also very successful in defending and in striking into Russia. And to retain support, they have to utilize propaganda/publicity, to stay in the public and international eye, and continue to receive support. And they're very effective in that too.
