When Bob Ross was new on Twitch, I had the same experience with the chat. An entire culture emerged in a weekend and it was so wholesome and fun.

gg, RIP Devil.

seaish commented on First images from James Webb telescope exceed expectations   cosmosmagazine.com/space/... · Posted by u/mooreds

Think this is the classical image of that star, taken in visible light:

http://simbad.u-strasbg.fr/simbad/sim-id?Ident=2MASS+J175540...

Click on fullscreen icon on right-hand side, then zoom out until FoV on bottom left says about 10.63' to 12.23'.

Best I understood, that should be about the same field as the Webb image, based on the instrument definitions I read about. And I wasn't able to line up any dots visually - the new Webb image was taken with a red filter, so I thought it's likely showing photons no one's seen before.

Paging any astros for corrections.

Looks like it's around 2.5' and the Webb image is rotated about 15 degrees clockwise from this one. The four blobs to the left form a quadrilateral that seems to match the four bright galaxies in the Webb image. It seems like the star has moved maybe 10" downward between the two, and used to be just below that round galaxy to the left of the top spike.

Mozilla has (had?) an agreement with Google to make their search engine the default one in exchange for no less than $400 million/year. The agreement would last until some time in 2023, so (if that's the reason) it could be a decision from Google to stop paying.

Google is the only one to be mentioned in the link (in the screenshot), so I doubt Google is the one that left.

What do you mean by this? I mainly use FireFox on my iPhone. Are you saying the FireFox app utilizes WebKit?
seaish · 4 years ago
Firefox (and all browsers on iOS) is just a wrapper around the Safari engine, because of Apple rules. On Android and desktop (including MacOS) it's fully custom.

In this case I could alter that to: "You will know what nostalgia truly is, when you see a younger generations representation of nostalgia and you can point out all the anachronisms in it."

Netscape 3 and websites that looked like that: 1996

Geocities: 1994-1999 (so far so good)

jQuery: 2006

Blink: 2013

What makes you think it's a demo?
seaish · 4 years ago
It's labeled "A demo of Townscaper" in the side panel.

What is missing from this demo compared to the full game? I thought that even the full game was this minimalistic.
seaish · 4 years ago
Full game doesn't crash, doesn't give you the browser scroll function on middle click (the shortcut to pick a color of an existing building), ability to export as STL, no full game links, ability to create oversized screenshots, some settings. The full game isn't deterministically equal to the browser one (roofs slope in different directions sometimes, decorations in different places). It should also run slightly better, although both are pretty lightweight.

Notably, the export strings are the same.

Basically: you're not missing anything from the core experience, but the browser version is slightly inferior. And buying the full version helps Oskar make more neat stuff in the future.

Edit: it's also a smaller build area.

Are we sure that the proprietary desktop clients don't use convergent encryption (allowing for deduplication), especially for media files?

It's pretty difficult to build up 80TB of stuff that's not original data.
