Microsoft develops ultra durable glass plates that can store several TBs of data for 10000 years
  • Data is data, you could store anything there. The question is if this would eventually reach some sort of consumer market. By the looks of it it's in a very early stage (where all equipment to read and write is still in RnD phase) so it's not where you can have a sata cable attached to it in your pc.

    Indistinguishable!
  • The problem is also thinking it's a one dimensional issue (left or right) when in reality you can pick and choosing different policies. In the US the two party system has cemented the notion that you have to pick red or blue. You end up vilifying the "others" instead of trying to find commonalities. Extremism is inevitable and corrodes society.

    Whats a stupid ritual in your life that makes you happy?
  • Safety razors are great. One time purchase of a good quality one with very cheap blades that come in the hundreds. No stupid disposable plastic sticks.

    Non Americans, what province is the "Alabama" of your country?
  • In Costa Rica its a subdivision of a province, San Carlos. Very famous for incest (not being taboo). In the costa rican subreddit there was a long thread about it not too long ago. The thread mostly contained anecdotal but has interesting comments; a doctor that sees lots of teenage pregnancy cases, a story of a priest that refused to continue marrying cousins in a small town.

    Larian knows Baldur's Gate 3's D&D combat is super complicated: "We used to joke you basically need a tutorial for every class"
  • Might not be the game for you. Part of the appeal of dnd for me is not being to get everything because of the dice. Not every door can be unlocked, not every social interaction will succeed. Even combat, I have to flee with half the party dead and then revive them later because a critical spell didn't succeed or a concentration save wasn't made.

    Hexbear federation megathread
  • Sync has that feature, I block instances and communities I don't like. It should be a highly requested feature, the more people that voice that opinion the better.
