official projects are usually run by sensible people who want to do things and aren't leading with ideology. We're literally talking about an "X but in Rust" project already...

I would also say Brazil and Ireland are unusually friendly & warm compared to most of the world. Irish people making small talk is practically a competitive sport.

I don't know about that. I've pretty continuously been playing games like UT99, UT2k4, Quake (specifically Quake Fortress), TFC, AvP2 since release. Even things like Space Station …

Wut? We're in a Renaissance of boomer shooters right now. There's like hundreds of new ones and it's a popular category. Just check out civvie11's channel if you disbelieve. They'r…

The cracks are already there though in Japan where this is starting to fall apart and has fueled a substantial rise in anti-immigration sentiment there. Particularly at specific gr…

I'm partial to YouTrack but I also haven't used it in 10 years and it was painful to set up.

This is true of just about any subject. 90% of the comments are noise.

coco bread :D But with cheese and in coco bread are both common, yeah. Most old school Italian pizza places in Manhattan/Queens carry them in my experience. (e.g., Sacco Pizza on 5…

Canadian bureaucracy around food is at times insane (and vaguely racist). Just look up '1985 Jamaican patty wars'.

Underrated comment. Unfortunately too many people won't be able to see this fact past the battle lines they've already drawn. Those of us who just want to get our work done do thou…
