I read the article. It was enlightening.

This powershell script is such a lifesaver for people who constantly reimage windows.

It has a few scripts in it to rip out AI and telemetry as well as many windows features, without having to even open edge.

(I use Fedora btw)

My Mom was an artist for a small game developer in Bermuda (of all places...) In the 90s.

Not only did they have one of these in the office, which I would spend a lot of time at after school, but she had one at home as well. So I spent a formidable part of my childhood trying to learn CD-I games.

The two we had at home (I do not know their names and I've tried looking them up) were:

Photorealistic Ultraviolent Cyberpunk... It was like an FPS and Point and Click adventure at the same time. Lawnmower Man vibes.

Japanese Feudal Defence Simulator... Another FPS where you would defend a castle from waves of approaching samurai with a Bow.

The controller was a wackadoodle Trackball design and honestly a pain in the ass to use, but superior to my NES which I had (as my only comparison).

We never bought more games as... Well... They weren't sold on the island.

Edit: I've also played the Zelda game at the office, but honestly it was like they tried to make a Mario game using Zelda, and as stated below: it was awful.

Instead of avoiding eye contact, focus on the bridge of their nose.

They can’t tell you aren’t looking them in the eye.

What if this policy is used to gather visual data to train an AI model to generate false attacks on ICE in one calm area to justify escalation in another hot area?

This would give them free rein to attack a peaceful neighbourhood based on the AI false flag attack and to escalate tensions between peaceful protestors in another part of the city / country.

Children of Time/Ruin/Memory/Strife - Adrian Tchaikovsky

Trigger Warning: I have pretty serious arachnophobia and it took me several weeks of interruptions to be comfortable reading this series.

Experience.

As long as you stay current and are willing to be malleable, your mind is a weapon forged with time.

Graphically it was superior to anything else I had played (SNES and Genesis were the two available at the time) but it definately lacked polish, even to 8 year old me. The real kicker is that everything about it just looked... Different from what was being pushed by Nintendo and Sega with their consoles.

I also had access to PCs which would play Wolfenstien3D, so I would say the game play was also somewhat superior, but the CDi lacked depth with the games. (Or I was too young to advance in them beyong the first levels due to difficulty)

I also just remembered that there was another game which was incredibly well made... And it was all 90s western cartoon styled about a knight trying to save a princess from a dragon.

That's the one.

I mean, it was better made than the other games I had access to.

And yes, its Ninja Gaiden levels of difficult.

Within the Fermi Paradox is the Dark Forest Hypothesis, essentially: we can’t see other civilizations doing this, and the theory is that if they did they are wiped out immediately by other civilizations.

The Three Body Problem is a good novel exploring this.

It is akin to being invisible in a dangerous place and then turning on a flashlight and giving your position away to predators.
