Number go up

I kind of agree that this may be a little overblown. Exploiting this requires device and filesystem access so if you can get the keys you can already get a lot more stuff.

The follow up question could have been "where in Canada", but it decidedly wasn't

What does "let him try and find the hard drive" really mean? Does he just want access to the landfill or is he expecting some kind of cooperation with the workers? How disruptive is he going to be?

You forgot to include a link to the project:

Are you sure? This sounds like the exact opposite

As bug ridden and feature incomplete as Star Citizen is right now, I really can't deny how beautifully detailed the ships and cities are. It is actually quite difficult to ignore.

Stat Citizen has its problems, but it's literally not vaporware since there's something available that you can download and play with.

Users who don't want redundant dependencies will probably prefer AUR packages. It can also be nice to manage all the packages with just the helper app. I try to install the binaries of apps from the AUR if they're available to avoid the long build times.

Today was day one of Citizencon and CIG revealed a lot of stuff that shows they're still working to give players the game they want. Most of it was actually tech to answer the scalability problem for everyone wondering how they're going to get to 100 star systems when they still only have 1

More evidence of a poorly regulated industry being detrimental to the people that work in it

It's probably unusual. I hope that's what your friend meant. If something you do is unusual, it doesn't automatically mean you need to stop doing it.

Maybe an unpopular opinion, but I think I prefer the jokes over what I've experienced on Lemmy. So far a lot of it has been smartasses that seeming only care about broadcasting their opinion with little to no interest in actual discussion. Kind of like Twitter actually

The fan translation was fantastic, but I do wonder what official localization would look like.

Default is probably select all because most people interact with the address to either copy the address or clear it to enter a new address. I empathize though

Wouldn't it be weird to include multiple takes when totalling number of lines? Like, it's understood that only one take of any particular line would ever be included in the final product. I'm not sure that's what happened here

Meshing tests have gone up to 2000 and the shards that were left on overnight were 300-500. The current evocati build of 4.0 has meshing enabled, just limited to 100 for now

Personal preservation is perfectly valid and doesn't automatically mean sharing aka piracy. If killing emulation prevents a legit owner from playing their game you're diminishing the authority of that ownership. Now I'm not arguing all claims of personal preservation are always ok since some games give you a limited license to play and are not owned, but that just means it's important to see the nuance

Personally, I don't think they should be aiming for 100 anymore, even if it was promised. That number was for the original pitch and was arbitrarily high since it was for a much shallower and easier to create game

The DJ Khaled one was him just completely embarassing himself unintentionally. Funny because he's so full of himself. Conan's was funny, but you knew it was going to be before watching because it's Conan

Another vote for Arch. Manual Arch install was an interesting, and positive, experience. I did it multiple times so I could better understand what was actually being done. It helped me understand the boot and EFI partitions because I wanted to dual boot Windows.

For Arch itself, I've had a way snappier experience with pacman than apt and the AUR is a really convenient resource. So many packages there that you would otherwise have to build from source.

Bleeding edge packages can cause problems, but there are ways to recover. downgrade from the AUR makes downgrading packages really easy. The latest Nvidia drivers caused a bunch of problems with games for me on Wayland so I downgraded them and the Linux kernel and added them to pacman's package ignore list.

Hopefully it'll come out on steam next year or something as a single complete edition, just like Control.

After the presentation they recorded a new no-crash version and uploaded that to YouTube as well. They wanted to risk the crashes during the presentation to show it was a live, playable demo

Simple Calendar Pro got an update in October, that's not too far back

Edit: Just saw the news of the purchase was from Dec.

It's not about the number of years, it's about how accessible the original title is. The less accessible, the better you can justify the existence of emulating that title

Notably missing from the comparison list is any mention of video or screen sharing, or anything to do specifically with games. These are Discord's unique strengths at the moment and they have been for a long time. With that in mind, Matrix is a "good alternative" to Discord in the sense that most other desktop VoIP or chat apps are since Discord users aren't using it for the privacy and openness aspects and want the Discord specific features and ease of use.

Don't get me wrong, I wish I could fully replace Discord with the Matrix instance I currently self-host, but there are things Discord just does better than every other app including having a bunch of features that range from meh to pretty good all in one package.

Another vote for Homepage, fantastic project

There's no simple answer to that since games become inaccessible in different ways and with different severities. It'll always be an argument you have to make.

Claim to have, sure. But actually have, probably few, at least until that have to start dealing with the condition.

Elden Ring with the Seamless Co-op mod. It's not difficult or complicated to set up and it works extremely well

Only for games made with UE, so probably doesn't affect the majority of smaller/indie games. Instead, Epic should keep the fees and reinvest in their platform since it looks and feels like EA's Origin circa 2015.

Most residential bathrooms I've been in have had sinks close enough to reach over. If it's not close I'll pre wet TP and set it somewhere within reach. If there's nowhere convenient to place it or it's a public washroom I just don't do wet.

There was a lot of goopy blood and gore in the game. You could blow off the heads of every killable NPC including the innocent tribals.

Adam is someone I can really identify with because he eats ass like me.

After the DJ Khaled episode I knew nothing else would be as entertaining for me so I stopped there

It is perfectly normal to feel lost at some point in your life. There's also nothing wrong with feeling like your friends aren't really your friends. People change, priorities shift, and sometimes you get a new perspective on the people you know. It means you're growing and are probably ready to move on to things that fit you better.

Try to take it day by day and look for smaller things you can appreciate. It's not to shut out any problems, but to remind yourself that you are a complex person and that you need a wide range of things to feel satisfied and fulfilled.

While the obesity part is kind of a digression, I think they were pretty clear: protein powder is a waste if you have a typical American diet and are not exercising, which is apparently most Americans. While protein powder on its own isn't snake oil, it effectively is for most people.

  1. You probably want a distro that comes with KDE Plasma. Ubuntu uses GNOME and is not as customizable Plasma ootb. KDE Neon for more stable, Manjaro for more bleeding-edge. Note that you can install Plasma on distros that don't come with it so you don't have to get those distros for Plasma.

  2. The reason different distros may be listed for installing software on Linux is purely because of the different package managers that the distros use. You won't run into any software that works on one distro and won't work on another. The only difference may be the way to install it. The universal way is to build it from source, but if you're not up for that then check your distro repo via the distros software store, check Flathub for a flatpak version (software stores are usually already configured to use Flathub as a source), or if you're on an Arch-based distro like Manjaro, check the AUR.

  3. KDE Plasma has exactly the keyboard shortcut functionality you're looking for.
