  • I understand fragmentation here, as you can get what you need in a format that works well-enough.

    Different package formats often have technical differences. Recently I had the choice to use something from a flatpak to reduce lib32 dependencies on my system… but I didn’t go with that as the other dependencies it needed (openGL, graphics driver etc) were redundant thanks to sandboxing (~2GB download!).

    Anything native from itch, GOG, or humble doesn’t really ‘install’ but rather they are just extracted… so the files should be what it is (portable, except game saves/user data likely won’t be). This allows you to run it off of a slower+larger-capacity drive.

    EDIT: Also if you need to compile it, probably will also just compiled to where you put it (to a bin folder).

    Non-system stuff like this is more viable for things that you don’t need updated frequently/ever (particularly games/software post-development). For sure most-of-the-time the best experience is via your package manager.





  • Undiagnosed (aside from TTT at home) EDS/POTS here (mild), I biked enough to notice a difference but I didn’t hit the point where it aligned with this post (maybe because I don’t really sweat, stress on my body changes the effect?). Even with inactivity, muscle loss is not an issue for me.

    Though the biggest issue with cycling for me is that I don’t really have (m)any destinations, distance makes most trips not viable for what they are (particularly factoring in return trip) or add complication when it comes to hours or weather. Daylight savings ending combined with shorter days ruined it for me, too.




  • My assumption here is that sugar would need to be dissolved, mixed, and emulsified with more care/difficulty than hfcs. Though if there is any issue here it might not be present until a product has sat on the shelf (or in your house) for too long. Also for gritty, I was thinking more for something like ketchup or other sauces.

    I’m also not saying this is a fault of sugar itself, but that hfcs allows highly sweetened products to be produced more easily (which may present said issue if high sugar content is kept 1:1 despite no longer using hfcs).

    Yes, because of the over-the-top “personally traveled” bit… and it’d likely end with DMCA.

    Though looking at just one list of Nintendo’s mass takedown of free fan-games, it seems very likely* it directly resulted in many children being terribly upset (and maybe thinking they’ll be sued/jailed)… even if they made their own assets, just because they included a trademarked term in the title/description for something they just wanted to share with their friends. (I’m sure many did use assets, but we are likely talking about decades-old material here)

    So it’s not that big of a stretch, it’s just not guaranteed that we’d hear this much about it.

    *= judging by FNAF/sonic crossovers, content/spelling of titles, creepypasta stuff, and likely terrible art if you can still find more than a URL
