Yup 😉
It’s a unit that’s been adopted by many technical mods, and conveniently sidesteps the issue of what the actual unit is by using the bucket as a reference. After all, in the wacky world of computer game, the actual measure doesn’t matter, so long as it’s consistent.
As a tech mod player, they hold exactly 1000mB of water
Everyone being equally miserable could be preferable to some people being happy, since it gives everybody equal reasons to work towards improving the situation… Except, of course, the monkey paw would ensure that wouldn’t pan out
I think I saw a video mentioning they are illegal in some places, showing just why they’re so dangerous
Apple has always been about locking down the system and forcing the user to do things the way Apple wants. Not only within one device, but also in locking down inter-device protocols and removing standard ones, as well as obfuscating information about the hardware, not letting the users make an informed decision. And that’s already after the fact that you aren’t legally allowed to use the system on non-Apple hardware.
This is a bit of a conspiracy theory, but consider… Even if you buy a different brand, maybe they’re doing the same? Maybe people bought a different brand, experienced the same thing, and decided to go Samsung next?
Okay, but what about cat mlems and one orange braincell? Or greebles, cats being scared by cucumbers, cat circles…
They probably already set it up to not happen in Europe
Just a guess, but I see URLCheck freaking out on my side, probably because the H in https is capitalized. Maybe try https://slrpnk.net/?
I think CSS animations are enough, no JS needed
First of all, something like “I’ll have anything” is a valid and reasonable statement that is not negative, for example when somebody asks you what you want to drink.
But further, “anything”, “anymore” and “at all” are all very different - from what I understand, “anymore” doesn’t even exist as a word in British English, and I’d point out an example of “do you have any more?” as another non-negative. I think generally “anything” makes more sense by itself than “anymore”/“any more”, and “at all” similarly needs context. But just to provide a not-really-negative example, “Do you like it at all?”, where a positive response (“yes”/“I do”) does mean liking something.
In the end, I think your arguments might be stemming from trying to apply the term to too many things, from my understanding double negatives are very simple in that they need to have two negatives. A word being general, and used mostly in negative statements doesn’t mean it’s a negative, and that the actual negative part of the sentence is redundant.
Did you mean to say “I don’t have nothing”? Because “I don’t have anything” doesn’t seem to be a double negative
If you use a VPN, it doesn’t matter if you use your home network or public wifi… At that point if they track you down to your VPN account, if either you provided personal information, or you used identifiable payment, you could be tracked down. Only difference is, if your VPN keeps certain information, you could be tracked down to the network you connected from, where the public wifi would offer some protection.
VPNs aren’t a magic solution to guarantee privacy, they’re a tool with multiple uses, but using one could decrease your privacy in certain cases.
It prevents that specific strategy that would culminate in extinguishing. The idea being to siphon users away from other platforms, then add features that other platforms won’t or can’t implement, and use that to create an image of their own platform being better, having more features. If they succeed at having a lot of users oblivious to what’s happening, they will use those features, and when they don’t work for people on other platforms, they will blame the other platforms instead of their own, further cultivating the image that other platforms are broken/unreliable. In the end, they leave other platforms unable to compete, forcing users to either have a “broken”/incomplete experience, or migrate to their platforms. (Or leave the fediverse entirely). Or they can simply stop federating at that point, after users have left for their platform, cutting off the rest of the fediverse from content hosted on their platform.
The way defederating prevents a strategy like that is by cutting them off before they can get a foothold - they can’t make users feel left out if they don’t get to influence their experience in the first place.

Cleverly cheesing rules is up to the game master’s discretion, while transforming into a whale sounds like a very reasonable, if overpowered, interaction, the peasant rail gun wouldn’t fly in most campaigns. Not that it makes it any less hilarious.
On the topic of whether or not it’s an emulator, sounds like semantics in the end - fair enough, I disagree but you make a fair point.
That said, in terms of security I think it’s very important to point it out that it isn’t any more secure than running a random Linux executable. In my view, the original comment is advocating for running unknown executables under wine as a security measure, and the further argument is that it’s more secure because most attacks don’t target that.
Sounds like if people rely on that for security, malware will just start targeting that after people get used to assuming it’s safe.
WINE is not safe to run malware in, it’s not a secure sandbox. AFAIK, anything expecting it can do anything a Linux binary can. (Also, not an emulator, it’s in the original name - WINE Is Not an Emulator)
Except you might want a client, both to keep your games in one place, and for extra features it can provide (like cloud saves and updates) - and if you’re on Linux, you’re excluded from that kind of stuff on GOG.
