Needs the sound! Otherwise, even other Dutch people will look crazy at you. :)

I don't know. I know some older Dutch folks are more handsy, but the young'ins? Nah. The new generation of Dutch are less so.

People don't love AI mode. It's just the only way to get good results on Google anymore.

> Violent crime against children has fallen steadily since the early 1990s. Stranger abductions, the thing every parent imagines when they hesitate to let a 10-year-old walk to a friend’s house, were rare in 1985 and are rarer today.

Well, we stopped letting kids wander -- certainly that has an impact on the statistics.


Not sure if it was on PS (except as part of the Sega Collection disc), but I played it on the Sega Genesis. Loved it.

Incidentally, there are remakes of the first two for PS2, released under the Sega AGES line of discount games. Unfortunately, only in Japanese at the time I played, though translation patches are now available. They’re called Phantasy Star Generation 1 and 2. There is also a release of a compilation of the original games for PS2.

PS = Phantasy Star

Oops. Yea. It works great as your first game. I recommend PSIV->PSII->PSIII and maybe skip the original unless you're really into it. It's quite outdated.

The original is still a great game. But I'd recommend the `Sega Ages` version on the Nintendo Switch rather than the original because the Sega Ages version includes a couple of quality of life improvements such as a map of the dungeons. It's also a lot less "grindy".

imo part of the fun when I went back to it was drawing maps on graph paper :)

I might agree with you if it wasn't for those annoying trap doors. I got so lost as a result of them back when I originally rented the game back in the 90s that I never managed to complete it.

The original is amazing for an 8 bit game. If I was going to suggest skipping one it would definitely be 3.

> This is Vivaldi. It always has been.

Wonder if the site dev was thinking of the astronaut pointing a gun at another astronaut meme when they put this in.


Isn’t that a text editor?

You can both edit text files directly in server or edit them via the web view from any device.

load times… much easier to deliver a small html page quickly, then allow progressive downloads on images.

> In Word, you hunt through menus for the word 'cut' or 'paste' and click it.

What you just described is discoverability. Something that terminal applications and modal editors tend to do quite poorly.


Yes but helix for example has very good discoverability by presenting commands on the screen which you can read slowly or not even notice between memorized key presses. And even ancient editors like vi it means printing out or having the commands listed in a window to reference which is a far cry from developer level ability.

Are we at the ‘extend’ stage now?

No. Extinguish. They already introduced SystemD (svchost) and are now "taking care" of the windowing system.

SystemD predates anything Microsoft.

Additionally, they are within OSI licenses.
