  • Canada: You know, I'm somewhat of a European myself.

    • The people surprised by the Trump/Vance vs Zelensky situation never heard of the Ribbentrop/Molotov Pact or the Munich Agreement

  • Nazi Germany signed agreements with European and Soviet countries to not invade them and then did it anyways.

    • Eurogamer: we can't recommend the PC version of Monster Hunter Wilds

  • That said, I ultimately think the 4k, 144+ fps gamers running expensive GPUs are offended that they can't play this one on the highest settings, and are review bombing the hell out of this title.

    I can understand. I haven't played this game but I do have an expensive rig. If turning on dynamic lighting causes the game to stutter, then the dynamic lighting feature is broken. That's not my machine's fault. I don't know exactly what settings aren't working, but it seems like there are a few nobody can actually use. Negative reviews for a game with broken features is justified.

  • The cup is using Japanese letters that look somewhat like English letters to spell "Soul of Coffee". The comment is how those letters are read in Japanese.

    • Electronic devices or 'signal jammers' used in car thefts to be banned

    Jump

  • More like banning USB sticks because between 2011 and 2021 KIA and Hyundai removed engine immobilizers from their car designs to save a few dollars which allowed their cars to be started by turning the ignition with literally anything.

  • They actually call themselves a tech company now. Their machines are guided by satellites and use computer vision to tell apart weeds and sprouts.

  • It's a flash game from 2008 and satirical.

    • New to Pop! OS - trouble adding Steam library and audio issues in Helldivers 2.

    Jump

  • I thought that was the case but it automounts at boot. I usually suspend my machine instead of shutting down which prevents the issue.

    • New to Pop! OS - trouble adding Steam library and audio issues in Helldivers 2.

    Jump

  • I also switched to Pop!OS recently!

    Cannot add library in Steam

    I had the same issue. You likely installed Steam from the Pop! Shop by selecting "flathub (flatpak)" which I believe is the default option. You won't be able to access other drives because of the way flatpaks are containerized (or something along those lines). Go back to the Pop! Shop, uninstall Steam, and then reinstall ofter selecting "Pop!_OS (deb)" from the drop-down menu just below the name of the program. This version isn't containerized and can access your other drive. Edit: Another thing! When you reboot your system you might need to remind Steam to have another drive. For whatever reason I need to go back to "add drive" and select the drive before Steam remembers that's where all my games are installed.

    crackling and audio cutting out

    I haven't had this exact issue but I did need to play around with PulseAudio/PipeWire to get my microphone to work. I remember uninstalling and reinstalling stuff related to PipeWire and then rebooting the system and my microphone worked.

    • More than 150,000 Canadians sign petition to revoke Musk’s citizenship

    Jump

  • How often do petitions actually affect change?

    Never. The government lists 3,319 total petitions and the most popular one has 387,487 signatures which is less than 1% of the population. The petition was to call an early election. I would hope the government doesn't dissolve itself every time less than 1% of people upvote a post.

    • Petition to have Musk’s Canadian citizenship revoked.

    Jump

  • Petitions like these are why I'm glad the government doesn't listen to petitions. Who does this help? What does this accomplish? It's asinine and petty. I really don't want citizenship to depend on upvotes.

  • I pirated Paddington 2 the other day then deleted it. If that wasn't available I would have watched something else. I get what you're saying, but I also don't take it that seriously. I mean, I watched Paddington 2. I'm not exactly a movie buff.
