I habe another "magically solved itself" story with solution.

When I leave my PC on for a long time without needing to access it, e.g. to make a backup or some long updates, I always lock it. This ensures that the monitor turns itself off.

Or so I thought. Mostly I would only look at it, when accessing it again, since it faces away from the door. Then the screen was off.

But sometimes when I didn't want to use it, the screen was on. This really bothered me for a long time. When I wanted to use it, the screen was off and when I didn't, the screen was on.

Some day it just stopped happening. The screen was always off.

Just last week I found out why this all happened.
It was my phone. I have my mouse on the left side and always place my phone to the right. Except when not sitting at the desk. Then I put the phone on the left side which faces away from the wall. There it slightly shook the mouse thus activating the screen and gaslighting me. Last month I thoroughly cleaned my desk and now I don't have to place the phone on my mousepad anymore.

Wtf is a "pulyarbnnntelpc shell"?

That WordPress article is a one-sided mess and they should really pull back from what they did. That has nothing to do with open source. They fucked over many of their users just to spite a single firm (which were in their right).

Now I don't want to defend a for profit company that doesn't contribute much to open source, but the public meltdown that the CEO of Automattic had was more than embarrassing.

You forgot network admins!

Also most of the other overlaps:

Gamers and
Sailors: constant swearing
Connoisseurs: get told it's not a real job
Admins: bothered by ping issues

Sailors and:
Connoisseurs: always in search for the nearest bar
Admins: Surfing in their free time

Connoisseurs and Admins: explaing stuff to morons who just want to consume

Gamers, Connoisseurs and Admins: their private equipment is top notch as well (and probably in the basement)

Admin, Sailor and Gamer: the unwashed masses

Boycott their CEO!

For some reason I read the title as "neckly-ness" which made it even weirder.

The criticism in this case is completely bonkers. They reuse assets from previous games, even adding more while developing.

This only means that they have an ever increasing repertoire of assets from all their games, from which the designers can freely choose. And then of course they match the asset to the new game (adding a grunge pass for a zombie game is the example given)
This is the optimal way of doing it. They save time and money and have lots of different assets to choose from.

Stuck in the sounds - Let's Go also has a crazy video about an astronaut.

Tbh, I played it for a few hours, didn't like it and don't understand all the fuss about it. Does it get good later?

I was at a point, where I was going through a cave with a castle in the background (it was a few years ago), it was probably some kind of riddle, but I couldn't be bothered.
Is it worth going forward or did I see enough to just say "it's not my kind of game"?

...out of the house I hope.

Well why would a job be employed?
They are a concept and can't work, dumbass!

But wait!
This keyboard has 45 keys and not 100 like most normal keyboards, so they cut 55%!

Okay, it is possible to get them for free (except the ÖR which I forgot, because the fee is mandatory for each household) which is what I meant but yes, there are lots of ads, but american TV also has I would say as many ads.

Source: also German

I use vanced, but NewPipe is also great.

Yes, but this is german and in Germany most TV is free with ads or paid without ads.

Imagine paying money to see 2 fucking ads before a video.

We get Qualityland's "The Shop" if we like it or not.

We host a small Matrix-server. The server is for 4 people but barely uses the 2 cores 4GB RAM.

Storage is mostly media, but stayed under 100GB in about 3 years.

We also host a web frontend and use Schildichat as app, but Element X could be better nowadays. Both also have a desktop client.

A big plus are all the bridges. My girlfriend uses WhatsApp, no problemo, there is a bridge for that. That one club only has a signal group? Use the bridge.
One of us uses Fb-Messenger via a bridge. Telegram also works and there are lots more.

The server is also low maintenance. It's an ansible playbook, that I irregularly run.
It takes around an hour twice a year due to changes in the playbook.

Also matrix is feature rich beyond your requests. I don't know much about the others, but matrix had emoji-reactions before WhatsApp and has threads inside of chatrooms and spaces which are collections of chats for common topics.
Also polls, sharing current/live location (not bridged to WA), voice messages and stickers.

Look at the numbers please:
In 2020 Biden had 81,284,666 votes.
In 2024 Kamala had 69,218,912 votes.

That is a difference of around 12 Million votes or nearly 15%. Trump at the same time gained only like 750k votes. I mean yes, he somehow GAINED votes, but still...

What is your supposed reason for those numbers?
