China's Four Pests campaign is a great example. As the campaign says, China had a bit of a pest problem. One of these particular pests was the sparrow. The government decided it would be a great idea to launch an "exterminate sparrows" campaign. The only problem was sparrows ate other pests such as bedbugs and locusts.

In short, they sucessfully curbed the "sparrow problem" and replaced it with a "locusts and bedbugs problem". This ultimately upset the ecological balance and further lowered the rice yields. It was a complete disaster

r/all has always been garbage. The brain drain can really be felt in the hobby subs. Back then you could get 10 to 20 good comments in a single thread. Now, it doesn't even get to 5.

I would like to share this masterpiece, Barbie Shapiro

I like to call it "The Great Stumble Backwards"

The strange items humanity comes up with for very specific problems never cease to amaze me

Ahhh rule 34. The only thing you can count on from the internet

Strand type games are truly one of the game genres of all time. Bravo

On a more serious note, I am curious on what he's cooking with the pandemic as an inspiration

Shork

It's great!! At first I wasn't too into it, but I leaned in to my chaotic stupid bard shenanigans and I am having a blast. The dialogue and VAs are fantastic, especially Astarion's (who doesn't!?). This is my first cRPg and it's good introduction to beginners new to the genre. Choices are remembered by characters so be careful. Combat can be confusing at times because I'm dumb and don't play DnD.

That's pretty smart. The translated user posts were insightful

Good point! Adding on to that, NEVER USE DULL KNIVES or catch a falling knife. Generally just be careful around sharp or hot objects

Thanks! I'll keep in mind the Steam flatpak thing.

Agreed. You can't really mess up that badly when cooking. Burnt bits can be scraped off and there's always a way to fix food when you season too much.

Just tried it and it is fast. The auto collapse comment thread is winning me over

If you have an Android, you can install it in the Play Store. The app just released today if you wanna give it a go

Oh no worries. I'll try to answer what I can.

I'm currently daily driving Windows due to uni but once that's done I want to fully switch to Linux. I'm just starting to spread my wings outside of Ubuntu right and see what's out there. Heard of openSUSE Tumbleweed from websites and youtube and thought "Hey why not give it a shot". The UI looks real neat as well. I'm not really looking for a gaming focused distro right now. Just something that I can daily drive and occasionally play games with.

I'm glad your loving it! It looks like a beautiful distro. Hopefully it ends my distro hopping too!

Thanks for the detailed reply! The limited userbase is definitely something to think about. Thankfully, I like reading documentaion and it's nice to know openSUSE has that!

Hey we have the same GPU. Good to know it works well

I have a sneaking suspicion that your community has a lot of overlap with !fountainpens@wayfarershaven.eu

I mean the only people who need to know the side effects are either immunocompromised or old. Their choices are get a little sick after getting the vaccine or die. The former is very very enticing

1/4 is a good number. It's still a huge sum of money
