Papers gotta get clicks. Maybe capitalism is the real villain here.

First, get a balcony with two convenient posts. What balcony has posts?

It may not have all the mods Minecraft does, but it supports various games like VoxelLibre and Minecraft which also supports mods and both provide actual gameplay not just testing.

Exile is also available in luanti and its brutal survival.

You used to not need Moonlight or something like that with linux. We just ssh XForward the application to the client. (well technically they server, but that gets confusing).

Ubuntu? Its a can't make up its mind what it is trying to be while always becoming a crashy mess. When it first came out I remember trying it and immediately broke it.

The last time I installed it recently it had issues out of the box.

If you graph the prices of beef each year from 1960 to today, the prices goes up except for 2 years. One was the result of over supply do to coming out of the late 80's after reducing herds and getting back to normal coupled with a reduction in demand (less beef in the 80's - healthy diet ideas), and the second was a lower demand from foreign markets coupled with cheaper feed.

But the trend is clear: its going up, and it isnt going to come back down, at least not for long.

The angle of the chart gets steeper each decade as well.

At all the schools my kids went to.... Nobody cares. The kids really don't give a shit what other kids are wearing. In some ways it's bizarre given that wasn't the case when I was a kid. But in many ways it's great. I rarely ever hear of bullying, kids just are themselves.

Of course thats woke, because they actually speak to the kids and tell them to consider others and will not tolerate intolerance. So I expect schools like these are few and far between.

I find this complaint very strange. It's a dot. It helps people find what they installed.

But if this person doesn't need it, how would they ever see it? Most power users I know never even look in the menu, so they would never know there is a dot in the first place.

It is worth mentioning that in the case of krupps they made a lot of money selling arms in WWI and they purchased newspapers to sell the war to increase profits.

Own all the newspapers... Propaganda... Seems familiar.

Finland is in the top 10 of the most mayo consuming countries, so they could just as well call it "save a trip" size.

I agree with your points but it is extremely frustrating that they also are killing the science to try and have better predictions and not even bothering with managing climate change which will make these kind of events more frequent and more devastating. I am sure you already know but it is so damn frustrating. People are dying and it only is going to get worse.

When they say WhatsApp I gotta think that would be the same for any third party conversation app right? I would never use whatsapp, and I would hope any security minded person wouldnt either. But I do rely on an opensource sms launcher and signal. I would assume the framework would make it mess with those too.

This sucks. Horribly sucks. I can't stand apple products, they cant do anything. I know that even having google play on my android device means I am fucked anyways, but this is a new low from google.

Feels weird to buy a google pixel, only to be able to expect it is the best way to not have google on it. (grapheneos or similar).

I have a phone that has no sim card and I only use it for podcasts (using wifi). I found it strange that different places I took it changed how long the battery lasted. I was going on the idea that it was about the wifi. But as I traveled to different places, and different countries, I saw a radical change in the battery life. I could go over a week in small country and then in the US it would drain in two days.

I finally turned the airplane mode on and it returned to the level of outside US small country in terms of battery life.

What the hell is that device doing when in the US? Its terrifying actually.

I liked the other attachment that fits around mason jar lids. Creates a tight seal, the jar does not crush the contents, and you no longer need plastic bags. Also, the glass jar can go straight into the fridge.

I would really like to see both: Artists creating their vision, drawing and sketching out ideas. Then using their own work, bring that to life with generative AI. Train on their drawings and work alone. Use it to help with rigging and modeling. Use it to take mashes and apply them in the holodeck as it is generating the world you are exploring.

It is not just one or the other. It just become a little more complicated.

I don't know. I think you used a computer. That is going to put people out of work. As a former graphic artist, this really shits on my field. That no longer exists, because computer.

I kind of am joking around, but I really used to do this stuff and we debated what was acceptable using "clip art" books vs hand drawings. That was a physical thing back in the day, and people worried about mass produced clip art ruining everything.

I don't care about AI in video games, seems silly to give a shit.

I DO care if they are using AI to analyse or harvest my data. Otherwise.... its a freaking video game. Whatever. Is it a good game?

And I say this because I know people who really have interesting ideas, but they cant afford artists, musicians, and some even need a little help creating meshs and rigging. I would hope they are honest about it, but if they use AI as a tool to bring their vision together that seems fine. If they do translations it definitely would be worth saying "AI generated" as it never is as good as a native speaker. But it is something that is better than nothing.

And I will add: If you are concerned about the "executive class" and workers, you shouldnt be buying from the big studios anyways.

Edit: I guess the down otes indicate that you don't give a shit about artists, you just have a knee jerk reaction to technology. Probably because you do not even understand it.

LOL.

Inst this simply KDEs activities?

Rogue, Hack, Nethack. Basically nethack, but it built on those before it. Occaisonally Larn. Amiga Larn.
