"climate change and other left wing topics"... I know that's basically how it works in some countries, but it's insane to consider certain scientific facts left wing, and we really shouldn't support such statements.

Ubuntu is just getting worse and worse. I was pretty happy running Ubuntu server for years after moving from Gentoo; I jag lost interest in spending time taking care for that server and wanted something easy.

I went to Debian half a year ago and it's been great. Should've done it earlier.

I wouldn't say it's the definition, but I agree this is not surprising.
Toxic masculinity is much more though. Men bullying men because they do something "not manly" is toxic masculinity. It can be anything from not enjoying sports to showing emotion for any reason (even crying if a family member died).

This is graphics memory, not regular RAM.

Threatening to sue doesn't sound like apologizing though.

the tu quoque is almost too tempting here

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paradox\_of\_tolerance

We can't be tolerant of people who are intolerant towards e.g. LGBT people; it doesn't work out in the end.

Well, how it may work. It is fairly controversial.

Please look up the facts. Doctors don't "cut off sex organs" or do ANY other physical changes to trans children.

Did you read it backwards? Or are you a huge NFT fan?

Hm, where do they nag? I don't know what Pockets is and haven't seen anything about it.
I also never manually update Firefox, I just restart when it tells me it's downloaded an update.

I literally haven't had ANY of those problems running Windows 10 or 11 FWIW, not have any of my friends or relatives.

I'm not anti-Linux or anything though, have used it for 26 years now, but only briefly on the desktop.

Why would they plug the phone to a PC via USB AND set it to webcam mode AND record or broadcast in a program on the PC if they didn't want people to see?

z is for gz files only though, there are plenty of others. xf autodetects and works with all of them (with GNU tar att least).

"Nowadays even pleasant" clearly implies he wasn't always pleasant though.

They're more than good enough though. The like-to-dislike ratio it shows always lines up with what you'd expect the video to have.

Baldur's Gate 3.
I can probably count the number of games I've paid full price for in the past 15 years on one hand, and this is one of them. No regrets whatsoever.

Looking back on Steam, last time was GTA V. Prior to that Skyrim, and prior to that Portal 2.

At the International Roguelike Development Conference 2008 held in Berlin, Germany, players and developers established a definition for roguelikes known as the "Berlin Interpretation".

These guys have extremely strict definitions, which mean that most "rougelike" games are in fact roguelites, if you care about what they think.

There are nine "high value" factors that are more or less a requirement:

Random Environment Generation
Permadeath
Turn-Based
Grid-Based
Non-Modal
Complexity
Resource Management
‘Hack-n-Slash’
Exploration and Discovery

Plus six "low value" factors that are less important:

Single Player Character
Monsters are Similar to Players
Tactical Challenge
ASCII Display
Dungeons
Numbers

There is, as you might expect, a fair bit of controversy about that though.

Nice! I started using it just this week. I built a computer to serve as NAS with Debian and ZFS.

I'm also considering moving my Ubuntu based server to Debian; it gets too many package updates that I frankly don't care about, plus even Ubuntu server feels a bit bloated.
I moved from Gentoo to Ubuntu a few years ago precisely to reduce my workload; I just wanted it to work... and now I'm considering Debian for the same reason.

Russian forces have had to retreat from territories they’d gained, and Prigozhin says army bosses are weak because they are unwilling to use tactical nuclear weapons.

Yep. Might actually be the case that Putin is the lesser evil here.

As bad as Project 2025 looks I couldn't see anything about kicking out senators, "just" federal employees.
Any sources on the more extreme claims?

I'm never giving it up out of principle, but I dunno about the RAM usage. Firefox was above 7GB last I looked. I have RAM to spare though, so I don't really care.

How is that a contradiction?

The Open Internet (OI) is a fundamental network (net) neutrality concept in which information across the World Wide Web (WWW) is equally free and available without variables that depend on the financial motives of Internet Service Providers (ISP).

Open is not the opposite of private. You can have an open internet where your information is not shared with third parties, i.e. private.

How is that relevant? RTX 4080 is not a the minimum requirement for Starfield.

What's your source that he is a felon? Can't find anything about that at all.

Ads work way better than you think. Perhaps the most important thing they do is to make you aware the brand exists, and to keep it in mind when you're looking for a service/product. You're way more likely to buy something you've heard of, even if it's from ads.

Ayaneo 2 is one apparently. ROG Ally is one. And there are at least 8 more: https://retrododo.com/best-handheld-gaming-pcs/

It's also the last of the points, which he ordered from least to most controversial.

I think Elder Scrolls 6 will be worse in the end. Announced 2019 and they've probably not even started yet beyond maybe writing the story.

The article points out that the kernel version used in a phone is basically frozen when development of the device starts. They're suggesting that at 2 years of support, the kernel will be EOL about when the phone is released.

I'm all for open source services, but realistically, what potential issues are there with using GitHub?
Every contributor has a copy of the Git repo, so isn't the worst case basically losing access to issues and similar data? And even that is very unlikely.

Also Boost for Lemmy.

There are several Lemmy instances called Feddit though, so that fedditor would almost certainly be seen as referring to them.

https://feddit.de
https://feddit.it
https://feddit.dk

I'm also not a fan of using terms referring to reddit. Can't we leave reddit in the past instead?

It's mind-boggling to me that this hasn't been fixed (in Windows, I assume?), people have been complaining for years.
It's not inherent to DisplayPort though. Some monitors that suffer from this issue can disable "deep sleep" and have the issue gone even with DisplayPort, but not all monitors allow turning it off.
(And others yet, like my old Acer XB271HU, doesn't have the issue to begin with.)

Are there any cases of such payout actually happening...? I'm not buying it. (Literally and figuratively.)

Kutcher is already in an upcoming movie.

Mila Kunis is in two projects.

I wouldn't say it's overhead. When you zoom a bit it's more like a third party view, except you can move the camera around.

He was a big fan of freedom of speech of all kinds. That doesn't in any way suggest he possessed child porn. Read the entire page and it becomes quite clear that he is literally just listing laws that make certain kinds of data illegal.

I strongly disagree that CSAM should be legal, but the point that honest people have their lives ruined by being accused of possessing it, or by having normal images of their children, is certainly true.

Even if having backups of the data is legal, it seems highly doubtful that restoring data that a user intentionally deleted would be allowed.

Doesn't always look bad, it's game dependent.

In hardware unboxeds test, it's better than native in some titles, and better or equivalent in half of titles tested.

It looks way better than native w/ TAA for me in BG3 (at 1440p). TAA is way too blurry. And yet it's also faster.

Very interesting times 💰(Parody)
