ACTION refreshes the Kandria page to check that there are, indeed, only three hours to wait...

I don't know what it means to "launch" or "release" something that requires such a precise time.

beach is obviously channeling Shigeru Miyamoto: a late game is late once; a bad game is bad forever. But that was when games came on hardware cartridges. (Not that I expect anything other than greatness from Kandria, which greatness will only be enhanced as improvements are made available in the standard constant-update cycle of modern software.)

I heard just clicking the link directly can cause HN to shadow slow down the post

Shinmera, congrats, too. So, obvious question: how do you deal with gc pauses, if any?

Fare: Have halved pause times by using a parallel GC, but pauses are infrequent and already not that annoying IME.

Shinmera: is the soundtrack released and my steam client is acting up or is it not?
14:58:11
jackdaniel
it seems to download now so either you were very quick or it was indeed acting up ;p

Shinmera
Yeah the distributor did not release it for some reason so I had to manually click the release button

Is github.com/slime/slime still the right repo for SLIME? I was trying to follow the documentation links there, and they are all broken.

jackdaniel
didn't ms change at some point its urls and broke literally all links that pointed to websites hosted on github?
