I wish there was a way to support the production, actors, writers, vfx artists, animators, etc. of good shows adequately while getting the piracy experience. This system really just fucking sucks. Even if you pay exorbitant amounts to streaming services, the people that made the art get jack shit.
Just a small note, universal healthcare isn't an EU thing and not really adopted properly across the EU's constituent countries
That would be a much better comparison if it was artificial intelligence, but these are just reinforcement learning models. They do not get inspired.
The measurement for temperatures you experience really does not matter outside of what you're used to, do you think non-Americans get confused about how cold 6°C or 23°C is?
What makes you think vigilantilism is a problem with the extreme left?
Just as an example off the top of my head, the murder of Ahmaud Arbery was done by right-wing looneys and defended by the far-right as morally good vigilantilism, leading to the repeal of Georgia's citizens arrest laws (i.e., their laws for legal vigilantilism).
100% agree that we should use the term with caution and precision. That said, Israel is committing a genocide.
It can barely run on a gtx1070 man what kind of black magic do you expect a hacker to cast to make it run on a Switch
The good news is that GDPR protects you somewhat regardless of where you're from and who you are. If a company fucks with the privacy of an EU citizen living in the USA they are still on the hook, so companies generally adopt the measures (e.g. the ability to request and delete all your data) globally. You can even just get a VPN and set it to somewhere in the EU.
Accepting cookies is not a GDPR regulation. It's the cookie law, which is a lot older than GDPR.
It's not really an indie game is it? large team, big money, subsidiary of a big publisher
Like I said, subscriptions barely matter for the artists on those projects. Actors and animators generally get no royalties from streaming.
Look at the Netherlands for a good example then. Private schools aren't banned but public schools are so good even the princesses go to them. You're just so used to public schools being underfunded that you think they can't work. The reason you'd want to ban private schools is because it creates an incentive for the rich and powerful to fix your shitty public schools.
Fried rice is not a cheat meal and a lot of people in the world eat it daily.
Apart from a period where Mojang added useless creatures like the polar bear, it's not comparable. The vast majority of things Mojang adds, they try to add a unique slant that makes the addition relevant in some way. Mo Creatures mobs are almost all useless apart from looking different. The sniffer has unique mechanics, adding 500 plants would not make it any more mechanically interesting. They're not looking to drown the game in retextures.
Good thing you can have the right economic politics at the same time as being queer. Young people identifying as LGBT does nothing to detract from their other left-wing views.
Does it? Haven't seen that and am in the European Union
In the case of GDPR it is not just for simplicity. It's because companies that operate in the EU need to provide those protections to all EU citizens, even those across the pond. You cannot check if someone is an EU citizen so if you operate in the EU you effectively need to treat everyone like an EU citizen.
What is an ultra-transformed food and what makes it bad for you? Generally the things added to foods (sugar, salt, preservatives) are what make them less healthy than fresh counterparts. At least here, the soy milk has added salt putting it at the same salt content as milk, and no added sugar, putting it at 8x less sugar than milk. What it does have is added calcium, vitamin B2, vitamin B12, vitamin D, and a higher protein content than milk. Simply being processed doesn't make something unhealthy, the things that are changed in processing it can make something unhealthy. That doesn't apply here.
It is difficult though. Godot has been in development since 2007. It was not FOSS until 2014. It is still way behind Unity and Unreal Engine in many ways, which have been around since 2004 and 1995 respectively.
Yeah you absolutely are in danger of people denying you the hormone blockers out of transphobia. Hopefully you are in a place where this isn't tolerated.
He made the games worse, but that doesn't mean he made them less profitable. Those are sadly distinct goals. The CEO does not have an incentive to make good art.
Yeah it feels a lot more like an old school forum.
If you get it, purge and update your cache. It still works.
I don't think it'll ever be perfect either. The setup Lemmy has just means it'll be more resilient to breaking down entirely because there's no single point of failure. So yeah hopefully it stabilizes more over time.
Genuinely hard to tell if a joke sometimes
Russia uses cluster bombs too though? Cluster bombs are bad because unexploded munitions are a lot like mines. The fighting is happening in Ukraine, not in Russia, and Ukraine is already littered with mines and unexploded munitions because of Russia's use of both from the start of the war.
As someone in the industry I feel the opposite. A lot of features that are almost finished but cut despite being integral to the experience come from higher up pressure. The expectation to always overwork leaves no room to commit a little bit extra when it's necessary because you're always drained to begin with. There is also no room for creativity, playing around, or polish, because the deadlines are based on the bare minimum that will sell.
That would be cool, but there is no good way to donate directly to the people contributing to the media you consume.
Why? saving money for the company, as always
I wish they would go back and do something with the mobs they did add that add nothing. We definitely do not need more of them.
bolognese a lazy recipe? takes me like 3 hours sheesh
I like when games are difficult. I don't think every game needs to be so easy every gamer can beat it.
The logging in confused me too. When I'm accidentally not logged in things don't load very well either.
Reddit has such a huge community and so much existing content that it'll take a lot to be a threat to that aspect of it, but I don't think that should be (or needs to be) the goal, short or midterm anyway. It can fill a more niche market for now and grow from there.
Happily, not really. I pay for YouTube Premium, but I don't like the monopoly they have and disagree with a lot of their decisions. I'd rather have a different economic system.
But yeah, I'd be willing to pay for the subscription in that case, even if I end up pirating most everything to get a better service.
You aren't paying creators, you are paying executives and middlemen.
You can buy it sweetened or unsweetened here. The sweetened soy milk here has almost the same sugar content as milk but still slightly lower (2.5g/100ml for the soy milk, 2.6g/100ml for the milk)
Nutrition differs for other milk replacements as well, but that's due to the core ingredient being different (e.g., oats have more sugar than soy).
Sucrose has a higher glycemic index than lactose but it doesn't seem to be that much of a difference. I can't find any objective sources for lactose being better for you other than it having a lower glycemic index, and how much that really matters especially in the relatively low amounts of sugar in milk and sweetened plant milk seems not clear. I'm quite curious to learn about it, do you have any references?
The sweetened plant milks taste excessively sweet to me and the plant-based ones taste right. It depends a bit on the specific milk though, I think pea milk is pretty devoid of sweetness for example.
The phrasing in the Mayo Clinic article is weird to me. The pros and cons outlined in that article (skim milk versus soy milk), skim milk has:
The conclusion that milk (even skim milk) is better for you than soy milk does not seem self-evident to me. I would rather have less sugar (regardless of whether it's added or not) and more healthy fats than slightly more protein. There are many good sources of protein but avoiding sugar in your diet enough to stay under the recommended limit is really difficult.
Why not have a state-run instance on an open platform? It's better than relying on a corporation's platform. The government is 'the people' more than corporations are.
