As I like how Banks writes and they are not directly related to The Culture they won't have to meet the expectations of the others I tried.

Thanks, will read them.

But then you have the problem of cleaning the feces from that mirror.

I think that literate people can recover from a period of not reading (books) at all.

I recently had more than a year of not reading any books that was interrupted when I found about The Culture series. I read Use of Weapons and had to read all novels from that universe. After that I tried to find some books similar to them, tried to read some recommended ones (didn't finish any of them) and stopped reading.

In my case reading books is a kind of fever that I get every year or so.

Good luck trying to enforce that outside of the US.

- People that want to do drugs already can buy them, with worse quality and the with the side-effect of funding crime at a planetary scale.

- Alcohol, tobacco & weed are already legal... why them and no other drugs? Check how many deaths do alcohol & tobacco provoke.

- Taxes, lots of taxes, literal mountains of money... a small percentage of which can be redirected to treating addicts.

Good luck trying to enforce those laws outside of the USA. And in the future China will be happy to sell local inference hardware at competitive prices.

Open, cheap & good enough will win the race.

Remenber that nationalism if based on 2 things:

- Hating people you don't know

- Being proud of things you didn't do

New comment by yomismoaqui in "Does average person understand that all disc media dies too?"

yomismoaqui — Sat, 04 Jul 2026 17:08:33 +0000

I was on the fence in the discussion about physical video games because since 10-15 years ago 99% of the games I have purchased are digital (blame Steam). And also any physical game you buy today already has a day one patch waiting for you so arguably the game on the disc is somewhat "defective" as it is.

But I hadn't thought about things that will also die with no physical media:

- Lending a game to a friend - Second hand market - Retro computing collecting (think that ub 20+ years PS4/PS5 will be collected like NES, NeoGeo... is collected today)

And conveniently all these things don't make any money for the game publishers/console companies...

I prefer using the more memory friendly M (uppercase) for memory and P (uppercase) for CPU

Arguably attributed to Keanu Reeves (I choose to believe it is):

“I’m at that stage in life where I stay out of discussions. Even if you say 1+1=5, you’re right. Have fun.”

Building something like this is the todo list of agents.

More of a gossipbait to be honest.

Last time I read about Nix there was a BDFL "assassination" and some people mad about Anduril.

Drama is the salt of opensource, a little bit is always fun.

This is what happens when a kernel developer creates tools that need some kind of UX (I say this both as a shitty UX developer and Linus fan)

I remember that time when FB went down and engineers couldn't even enter the building to fix it.

"Sheera Frenkel, a tech reporter for the New York Times, told the BBC part of the reason it took so long to fix was because "the people trying to figure out what this problem was couldn't even physically get into the building" to work out what had gone wrong."

Question is, are Lego fans going to buy a similar-quality chinese product or do they only buy Lego?
