Quoting: sonic2kkLiquid cooler recommended? No thanks.May I ask why you don't like liquid coolers? My last two CPUs have both had liquid coolers, and they are straightforward to set up and work well.

Good news, though - ironically - it was cracked about a month ago 😄

The 1977-82 stop-motion tv series (shown in the UK between 1983-85) scared the underwear off younger me :-) This one sounds less scary!

Quoting: discocatMy opinion is that I'm glad I use Godot, and Unity can go rot in hell :)With regard to Godot and AI, have you seen this post [External Link] on BlueSky from Rémi Verschelde? Some quotes:
For me the fun of programming is to learn stuff, to think about how to do a thing, how to organize the code, how to solve problems. If a LLM is doing all of that for me and I just check what it generated, that's just a huge part of the fun taken from me.
That's even before considering hallucinations, errors and the ecological and economical impact.
I really can't wait for the overhype to die off and the levels of use of LLMs coming back down to actually reasonable and useful.
Honestly, AI slop PRs are becoming increasingly draining and demoralizing for #Godot maintainers [...]It seems to me that people using LLMs are causing trouble everywhere.
We find ourselves having to second guess every PR from new contributors, multiple times per day:
- The description is verbose LLM output, is the code written at least partially by a human?
- Does the "author" understand the code they're sending?
- Did they test it? Are the test results made up?
- Is this code wrong because it was written by AI, or is it an honest mistake from an inexperienced human contributor?
- What do you do when you ask a PR author if they used AI because you're suspicious, and they all reply "yes I used it to write the PR description because I'm bad with English"?

The Enigma DRM has been cracked several times recently. Hopefully it will be cracked again, and even legitimate users may be able to play the game!

I played it several years ago on Steam. The only problem I had at the time was a mod which restored some content but didn't seem to be Linux-friendly (strange filenames). I'll have to check it out again 😀
