The main issue is that some AAA gamesl devs have decided that 10GiB of VRAM is the minimum they're willing to put effort into looking good, leaving 8GiB sometimes looking worse than older titles.
Which is very silly considering how common 8GiB graphics cards are still very popular.

(the corner dedicated to American comics is only a bit larger than that for Swedish manga, with equal room for DC, Dark Horse, Image, and Marvel. Absolutely dwarfed by the manga section)

I'm at the scifi and fantasy bookstore in Stockholm, and they have a lot of manga. Almost all of it is in English. I see one tiny corner dedicated to stuff translated into English. I know there used to be more, because I bought every volume of the Dragon Ball manga in Swedish here when I was a kid.

WW2 is an interesting thing to bring up considering it might not have happened, or been over much quicker, had the USSR not teamed up with the Nazis (not to mention how they continued to support Japan after they attacked the US)

My experience with fish is that less POSIX is more better.
Even run fish on my router now.
I prefer fzf's shell history search, though.

Since Typst has built in data loading functions for e.g. TOML and JSON, and much nicer scripting than TeX, next time I need to update my CV I might write everything in a data file and then load it programmatically into a template. Overkill but fun.

Oh, and I must note: in today's highly connected world, the lines between "sophisticated" insane bigots and merely hateful bigots can get a bit blurred, as simple bigots get gradually radicalized by other people online.

E.g. I've seen a lot of TERFs who think Soros is producing white replacement by brainwashing white people into not having kids (by turning them trans) while also funding mass immigration.
It's a big spiderweb of insanity. /4

And alienate friends and family. Even people in their lives who are also transphobes might tire of how obsessed they are. And in my experience, these people are *always* full blown conspiracy brained antisemites too. /3

People in this group tend to become completely insane with conspiracy theories. Rather than mere hatred, they construct a world view where trans people are simultaneously weak and strong. The degree of mental gymnastics required causes them to often become completely unable to understand reality /2

Incidentally, I think there are two different kinds of transphobia. One which is basically the same as any random racism mixed with homophobia. It's what you see from random people who hate people who are different. The other kind is "sophisticated" and is essentially the antisemitism of misogyny /1

Yeah. IME often the most racist areas are those that are those with the fewest immigrants.

Yeah, just have the Makefile run `typst compile myfile.typ outfile.(pdf/html/png/svg)`

I think I will try that when I try to tackle Japanese or Spanish, but right now I'm learning Latin, so it shouldn't be very practical.
