Well, it seems that the territory in question later became what is known as the Mexican Cession of 1848.

Well, it's pretty young so long way to go, but it's been around for 2 months, and subscriptions have tripled I since the post you saw in !newcommunities@lemmy.world 5 days ago. Good enough for me :)

Thanks. I thought it's obvious from the link. Anyway, sorry for being sloppy.

News came out that he personally called to stop the construction of a gunpowder facility. We all know that this is a critical resource in the war. https://www.svobodnaevropa.bg/a/33266401.html Now you see how much the presumption is off and how infuriating all this is.

President Sheinbaum "used her Wednesday morning news conference to show a world map dating from 1607. The map labeled North America as Mexican America and already identified the Gulf of Mexico as such, 169 years before the United States was founded," The New York Times reports.

 

We invite participants to benchmark systems for word sense induction (WSI) across multiple languages. Unlike traditional approaches, this task evaluates WSI without relying on predefined sense inventories, offering a more theoretically plausible framework for understanding word meanings.

Participants will be provided with:

  • A set of polysemous target headwords.
  • Sentences containing these words in diverse contexts.

The goal is to cluster the sentences according to the sense in which the target word is used.

A different set of headwords and contexts will be provided for each of the following languages: English, Czech, German, Spanish, Estonian, Chinese

For each language, there will be approximately 25 headwords with 1500+ contexts each.

I've been using path 3 and it was fine for me. I even adapted the docker-pyinstaller to also compile Mac-native binaries.

The thing is that in your case the users would still need to run front-end and back-end. Unless you want to implement some browser-starting logic (which is a pain to do multiplatform), this will be up to them ans that's one click too many to start.

As far as I can tell you have such a problem with path 1 as well.

I don't know it, but if it supports transparent textures, you could try something like this: https://animium.com/2008/08/lowpoly-trees. The basic idea (not exactly what's in the link) is that each branch is a texture on a plane facing your camera - clearly works only if camera angle doesn't change. Depending on engine performance and distance from objects, you could simplify down to having 3-4 layers per tree. I'd call this something along the lines of "lowpoly parallax trees". I've seen it working very neatly in a top-down third-person demo of Blender Game Engine a while ago.

A neat way of producing these could be getting a hipoly model of a tree and culling sliced renders of its branches.

Of course, if you don't have things behind the tree, or the tree moving, you don't need parallax at all and could bake the whole tree on a small surface.

A lot of decisions depend on the exact affordances of the game.

 

Just check out !blacksea@feddit.bg. Hosted on a Bulgarian instance, most content in English, open to all languages in the region.

It's a million dollar question, isn't it. I'd think you'll need to consider having baked textures as an option.

What engine are you using? That makes a big difference.

 

The Black Sea is simultaneously a very fragile ecosystem and an important economical gateway. Many interests mix here, and this is part of the reason for the wars and protests that surround its shores.

This is a group for people interested in it, be it because they live next to it, or because they are inspired by its characteristics. Conversations in all regional languages are welcome alongside English.

I will, thanks!

[–] mapto@feddit.bg 3 points 4 days ago

Yes, this is a Bulgarian instance, you'll notice it's quite small. That's because it's pretty young and people like you haven't seen it yet. :) We have a few reddit refugees on board. Beyond Bulgarian-language discussions, we also host some regional ones, like the one in this thread or !blacksea@feddit.bg. So you're welcome to join, as usual.

As for reasons behind Bulgarian hacker/pirate culture, history has lots to explain. Quite a bit written about it, but I'm a fan of the Guardian.

PS: Lemmy federation is a pain, I still cannot respond to your more recent comments.

 

The protesters have been actively demonstrating following the tragic collapse of a concrete canopy in the northern city of Novi Sad’s central train station on Nov. 1, which resulted in 15 fatalities.

The tragedy has been attributed to corruption and substandard construction practices by the populist Serbian leadership, leading to a widespread public outcry and demands for accountability.

 

Hristijan Mickoski, Prime Minister of North Macedonia, commented on the challenges of EU accession, stating that the process has been "Balkanized" rather than "Europeanized." He emphasized the need to resolve internal issues while cooperating with European partners, highlighting that the current bilateral disputes between member states undermine the accession process. He criticized the trend of using bilateral disagreements as obstacles, pointing to examples such as Croatia and Slovenia, and the longstanding disputes between Greece and North Macedonia. Mickoski argued that this approach has transformed the EU accession process into a regional issue rather than a unifying European effort.

 

Discussions in English or any Balkan language accepted. If in trouble, we'll resort to deepl.com

While on that thought: is it really Underground if it includes the Overground?

I'll live with being weird.

 

Milanovic won 49.1 percent of the first round vote and Primorac, backed by the ruling conservative HDZ party, took 19.35 percent, according to results released by the state electoral commission from nearly all of the polling stations.

But he used the office to attack political opponents and EU officials, often with offensive and populist rhetoric.

Milanovic, who condemned Russia's aggression against Ukraine, has nonetheless criticised the West's military aid to Kyiv.

Right now Turkey is the military dominating the Black Sea. The only actual risk for them is if the sea gets demilitarised. They certainly don't want this.
