@chr Reminder that one of the biggest security incidents in Debian's packaging of openssl was caused by a one line code change of sufficient complexity: https://research.swtch.com/openssl
Temporary ref for pear-shaped friend form until I eventually get a proper model done.
Used Yiyani's Lugia base for this. :>

I was shared these awesome pieces of art that I'm definitely hanging on my wall as metal prints from their shop.

@gardevoir (Which is to say: you can try, and said technical solution might gain traction for awhile. But the thing is, human beings are incredibly creative, diverse, and versatile, and will find ways to maximize or route around any engineering solution. Such that you will always need to meet a social problem with social solutions, empathy, and support or moderation.)

@gardevoir The way a friend communicated this to me awhile back, in unrelated context during the forum era, was "you can't use a technical solution to solve a social problem." I think about that a lot these days.

@chr Literally the most excited thing I was for in the trailer was seeing one of the dragons flying up in the skybox behind Link. (Also, realizing the new mechanics will make shield surfing rad as hell.)
game randomizers
@Dex Archipelago occasionally runs multiworld stress tests across their library of supported games, so the answer in that setting is going to be at least a dozen different games.
In the binary itself however, probably fewer, at least until some mad lad randos Super Mario All Stars or something. >..>
