But how would they know? It's like Blade Runner.

It's a great movie too.
Nah, it's a scam if you look into it. They spend it all on "AI Safety" and "Existential Risk" bullshit.
It's a shame as the general concept is cool with microloans and crowd-funding, etc. but it's really been taken over by that crowd.
They can - but the issue is if the other instances don't help ban them too then it can become a lot of work literally whackamole.
Like I understand it, but I still think this is an over-reaction. Lemmy.world has been good in banning spammers I've reported there in my experience.
We really need more tools for the UI experience (starting with fixing the refreshing home page and post switching bugs!) - like to allow communities and instances to completely block image posts and comments, to auto-moderate URLs, detect users posting repeat content, etc. but de-federating like this is not the answer IMO.
The issue is the physics. 60Hz doesn't give you much time to do everything that needs to be calculated in the interval. All the objects can interact with one another so it's not easily independent and parallelisable.
There's still optimisations that can be made - disable physics and have only certain actions enable them for nearby objects, smaller physics range, fewer physics-enabled objects, etc. - but those all have drawbacks for the gameplay and realism too.
I learnt Spanish like this. Mainly finishing Duolingo and downloading some textbooks and doing a few MOOC courses and listening to slow podcasts, and then watching basic movies.
Once I got to the point I could watch movies and TV, I would watch a movie almost every single day.
It's a lot of work, but to get to the point of speaking and listening it is necessary.
It took about 2 years in total - and then I started a job working in Spanish.
Sweden has devalued the currency massively (over 20% since 2020) - so it makes for cheap foreign investment.
Kerbal Space Program, Shadow Empire and Baldur's Gate 3.
Honourable mentions for Baldur's Gate 3, Crusader Kings 2, and Tears of the Kingdom.
D:OS2 didn't have the branching questlines though - BG3 added a lot too, but I agree the main base of the game was there.
But yeah they're the only developer I will preorder from.
I remember being like that with Morrowind.
I used to be an active socialist, but it felt quite hopeless when protests are ignored and democracy scarcely exists (you just vote for the least bad option once every 5 years). Now I moved countries and can't even vote so am much more apolitical. I also didn't like the shift of those groups into identity politics, and often focussing on treating symptoms rather than the cause - e.g. the push in many places to decriminalise theft under ~$300 instead of actually ensuring people have jobs and opportunities, or unfair rent control rather than building more housing and dealing with the distribution of employment.
But in general I just want a functional, meritocratic society with easy opportunities for education, wide use of technology and as little bureaucracy as possible. No monarchy or religion, etc.
I also think there should be much stricter punishments for violent crime, and better use of technology to investigate it. Ideally everywhere would be like Singapore with almost no crime due to excellent enforcement, and also good provision of education, housing, etc. to make it less attractive overall.
I prefer BG3, as DOS2 has the awkward separate armour systems - so you're forced to either target physical or magical armour specifically.
Also BG3 has Baldur's Gate which is awesome with all the city quests, etc. - lot of quests you can do entirely with stealth.
Spotify Connect usually works really well, I can use it on Linux, it's relatively cheap.
I don't see any reason to switch tbh.
I never switched. Just doesn't seem worth the hassle.
Loads of broken features and extra work shoved onto the individual compositor / WM developers. I don't care about security on my own computer, I just want screen sharing and clipboards to work reliably.
That said, I use just one (ultrawide) monitor, so even the benefits aren't really there at all.
The real issue there is that electricity should be carbon-free with nuclear and renewable power.
Have used maybe 2 cheques, bought a condo share but a house is a whole other matter. That said I don't think it's impossible, the main issue is just stability, if I had a partner who earnt as much then it would still be tough but not impossible.
But you can absolutely own your residence OP - just look for smaller places, in cheaper areas, and jobs that would offer a good salary : cost of living ratio. You'll probably have to start with a condo in a HOA, etc. but that's better than renting.
This is incredible, it feels like parts of the USA are so advanced.
Here in Sweden we're going backwards, they even took out self-scanning at a lot of supermarkets due to theft.
It's sad, this could eventually be automated.
Now people have to waste their lives just manning checkouts.
The moderators would rather have absolute power (controlling registration, community creation, all moderation, etc.) in their small fiefdom than foster a growing and open community. It's sad, but hopefully lemmy.world will grow more.
Terraria - I just don't understand what you're meant to do or why it's interesting.
I actually really like TOTK though, it's a big improvement over BOTW with a slightly more alive world and the vehicle creation stuff is fun.
The Witcher 3 (mainly the DLCs), the story was so good, like it's the only game I can remember where I was waiting to play it every weekend just for the story.
Ocarina of Time - the music is so amazing, I can still remember all of it.
Runescape Classic (like 2002) for making me impervious to scams - you get scammed by some players once and that sticks with you.
They should be able to get free education and training.
But more automation is always a good thing - more productivity and freedom.
I never played any of the others so I can't really comment.
I just really loved the living world - it's why I tried the game after playing Oblivion.
So few games have that - Dwarf Fortress, Ultima and Oblivion still stand far ahead of the rest.
The whole thing reeked of propaganda intended to make the left look stupid
Got some bad news for you...
Back then they had no cars at all though.
But yeah he's not personally building the rockets and engines, but he's still far, far better than 99% of politicians and oligarchs who are just using the same money to go to Epstein's island etc.
Most of it has gone to "Social Justice" and groups pushing for racism, etc. sadly.
But the lump of labour fallacy is wrong - in the end automation makes us all wealthier as goods become cheaper, and people can do more productive work (and be better educated for it too).
Just use Steam.
Wtf is a "professional communicator"? How do you think you get there?
They just needed someone who wasn't really weird, and had a proper job. Look at Mick Lynch's interviews in the UK for example - he did great work for the union.
This is the new luddite movement.
It really is. Degrowth is destitution and death - just look at Germany.
We need to decouple electricity production from environmental damage - build renewable power and nuclear power station en masse and invest heavily in nuclear fusion.
This but unironically. Tesla put electric vehicles on the map. Starship will change humanity forever, and Neuralink is already helping patients.
He's not perfect (but hey, Von Braun was worse), but at least he's actually doing stuff that matters.
This does much more harm than good IMO - splintering the community at such a sensitive time of growth is a bad idea.
Hopefully there'll be the ability to block images in comments and posts, and better tools for blocking / detecting spammers, and cross-instance bans, auto-moderating hyperlinks, etc. soon.
But the demand for unilateral access to other communities' content is disturbing. The Lemmy federation works because of reciprocity.
Definitely won't be recommending beehaw for new users now.
