These are not necessarily unpopular in terms of subscribers, but nieche in terms of topics:
- acollierastro: theoretical physicist with a unique style. What got me hooked are her videos debunking or responding to popular scientific misconceptions.
- Ben Eater: teaches computer related subjects like electronics, networking, low level programming, architecture etc. in a fun way. He has a series where he builds a computer from scratch with cables and circuit boards.
- Living Ironically in Europe: if 2balkans4you was a youtube channel, although he has some serious content as well
- Masaman: mostly talks about genetics, he hasn't made any new videos in a while.
- Max Derrat: he seems to have deep knowledge about occult stuff and its history which he uses to analyse video games and other media.
- Ostura Official TV: progressive metal band from Lebanon.

Granted. You wake up one day and see a button at the corner of your vision. You think you're hallucinating but you're not. You concentrate on it and a debug menu appears which has all sorts of buttons: undo, redo, stop time, resume time, add money, add strength, set health to max, save, load etc.
It's great! In fact it's the best thing that could ever happen to you. You're free of your depressing life, you can do as you please, you have all the money, all the time, all the chances you could ever want, and you haven't even seen every option yet.
But after a few weeks it starts to dawn on you that this kind of thing should really be impossible. It's like it's straight from a video game. Are you living in a simulation? Is this a test? Is anything real?
The more you think about it the more depressed you get and the things that you enjoyed just days earlier seem meaningless. You explore this debug menu a bit more and you find something that you weren't expecting: the exit button.
As the days go by and you wake up every morning in your huge mansion with the worst hangover ever, you have had enough and you finally press is.
For a moment everything goes dark but then you wake up. Tubes and cables are sticking out of your body and you can barely walk. It's dark and cold, you look around and you see millions of other people hooked up in pods, just like you were. You start to make your way forward, trying to find a way to escape this hell, but it seems to go on for hundreds of kilometers, by your estimation. A few days later you die of dehydration.

I saw some memes with Good Omens templates and decided to give the show a watch.
Season 1 was pretty good, the kind of comedy that made me smile occasionally, which is fine.
On the other hand season 2 was mostly boring, 2 episode's worth of story was stretched out to 6, and the ending ruined the friendship between the main characters, which was the cornerstone of the whole concept.

Also C# (or should I say the .net framework) is now cross platform, which wasn't really the case when I first saw this meme.
This joke made sense when instead of .net you could only use Mono with C# on other platforms, which wasn't very good at the time.

Yes and no. They serve roughly the same purpose.
I actually hated Powershell until I was forced to work on some automation scripts with it and realized that it's actually pretty cool.
Bash is good for quickly doing something in the terminal but for longer script files I prefer PS now. It feels much more modern and has a less janky syntax.
Funnily enough the reason I had to use it was to make my scripts cross platform between osx, linux and windows.

"It never happened but they deserved it". It's a classic rhetoric of people who deny or white wash genocides.

Granted. World War 3 breaks out which brings the worst human's rights violations that you can think of, followed by nuclear annihilation.
Sure, capitalism fell but so did 95% of humanity. What remains are some small groups of people suffering in the post apocalyptic hell, and the ultra rich who enjoy a life of luxury in their underwater bunker city.

I like to "annoy" people whith small "things" that are insignificant "alone" but add up over "time". Kind of like "overusing" quotation marks in "posts" and comments.

A ban usually means that the account is closed forever, while a suspension is temporary.
But even if it's not, brands like to distinguish themselves by using different lingo to their competitors. For example, even though Lemmy is a Reddit clone is heavily inspired by Reddit, they use different words like community instead of sublemmy.

The title is misleading as the event will be hosted by Nordic Sun Records, not "Hungary".
According to the article the Budapest police stated that they will monitor the concert and step in if try to start anything.

I was seriously considering buying the game on release but after 8 hours of not having fun paying it I'm glad I had GamePass to try it on first.

Not necessarily, depending on your situation you can type the JS code yourself.
If the team making the JS code were using jsdoc then the Typescript compiler can recognize the comments and use it for type checking.
In some instances the compiler can infer types from JS code to do some basic validation.
Even if the external JS code is recognized as any
, your own code that's using it still has types, so it's better than nothing.

I recently dusted off my old Guild Wars 2 account after YouTube recommend some videos of it. I was a huge fan of Guild Wars 1, I especially loved its skill system. You had hundreds of skills available but you could only equip 8 at a time. This forced you to think carefully and craft builds, which was half the fun. There were some skills that were only available once you defeated some hard elite enemies, which was also a fun challenge. When GW2 released I bought the game on the first week, but the skill system was very underwhelming for me. A huge part of why I loved GW1 was not there in the sequel, so I quickly stopped playing. Around 10 years later I logged in again and created a new character. I'm aware that there were tons of changes made to the game but the very early game stayed pretty much the same (as far as I remember). However, the way I experienced it was very different. It no longer bothered me that you only have a fraction of the skills available. I'm 10 years older than I was when I first played it and I have much less time. This means that I appreciate not having to spend days to craft a character, I can just go out and enjoy the game. The story is also pretty good, I've heard that GW2 is one of the few MMOs where the early game is also as much fun as the late game, and it seems to be true. I don't feel like I have to rush to max level to have fun. Have you ever had a similar experience?
