What is this, a crossover episode?

Meh. I just wish XML was easier to parse. I have to shuttle a lot of XML data back and forth. As far as I can tell, the only way to query the data is to download a whole engine to run a special query language, and that doesn't really integrate into any of my workflows. JSON retains the hierarchy and is trivially parsed in almost any programming language. I bet a JSON file containing the exact same data would be much smaller also, since you don't list each tag twice.

Or they wanted to play off that kneejerk reaction to get you engaged. Ciri studied under Triss, Yen, and Avala'ch and knows actual magic. They could just be the more powerful actual versions of what witchers try and emulate.

"Swing low sweet chariot" basically means "for the love of all that is holy please please let today be the day I finally die and end this"

I was talking to my cousin (journalist) a while ago and she told me how she was supposed to interview a whistleblower for Anaheim PD. I snarkily commented something like, "yeah but let me guess he shot himself twice in the back of the head" and she alarmingly said "...yeah, how did you know?"

So then don't buy it at launch and wait until it goes on sale. CP2077 ended up in a excellent state. Then you have the bonus of supporting only their fixed products while also not paying full price.

There's a third option: Black holes create new universes through some as yet undiscovered process. Then your existence just becomes a statistical eventuality, as do every other life that you could ever live.

Necessary and necessarily for me. Can't spell 'em to save my life.

Honestly I never really did. I asked some kid in 5th grade what Santa got him for Christmas and he scoffed at me for still believing. I went, "uhhhh yes... this is information I definitely already knew. Yesssssss..." and never really brought it up with anyone again. ¯\(ツ)

Almost all of those are for the database release, not the production release.

Even if they are for the current production release was last April. Considering the buggy mess their product is, that's kind of unacceptable for an app that is supposed to hold your entire lifes data.

It is profoundly disturbing how much social media information the media just.... dumped out there. This could even be the wrong dude!

I would scour my presence from the internet if I thought it even mattered. I'm sure there are mirrors of everything I've ever posted or liked going all the way back to the early 2000s. Even if I deleted absolutely everything (that I could find) and 100% degoogled it probably wouldn't matter at all.

This is a very depressing article.
