The company behind Fortnite and the Unreal Engine is also reported to be selling off Bandcamp

They bought it, did nothing with it, and are now selling it. Amazing.

Honestly happy they’re selling it though, I was so disappointed when they originally bought it.

I don’t disagree with that. I have a Bolt EV, which isn’t fast (0-60 in 6.7s) but it has that instant acceleration at any speed that has quickly gotten me further away from sketchy drivers or situations more than a few times.

There’s probably something of a bell curve of safety going from super slow to super fast, lol

It probably doesn’t need that much power, but speed is fun and the extra torque can be useful.

The new Rimac Nevera (an EV hypercar) has over 1800 HP.

AntennaPod on Android and Overcast on iOS have been my go-to options.

Darknet Diaries is so good

Spoons won’t spark, you gotta use aluminum foil instead for best results.

If you don't know who Felix Colgrave is, he's the guy who animated Double King and a bunch of other weird and fantastic short films and music videos. This video is from the new WOMBOT Studio channel, which is run by Colgrave and Zoë Medcraft. The latter of which was the director, lead animator, and painter on this video!

Yep. From the North Sentinel Island wikipedia page:

The islanders have been observed shooting arrows at boats, as well as at **low-flying helicopters. **

If they’re shooting at a helicopter, I don’t think they’ll think about a bunch of drones any differently.

This is one thing I really like about Flatpak, never having to worry about missing or broken dependencies. Totally worth the bigger install size imo.

One thing to note if you go this route OP: If you use Steam Input, you’ll also need to install the steam-devices package (game-devices-udev on Arch), or setup udev rules manually. Flatpak still doesn’t let apps do this automatically as far as I’m aware, but it’s smooth sailing aside from that.

GTX 750 ti

This GPU is right on the edge of what DXVK supports. Kepler (600/700 series) isn’t supported past 1.10.3, but the 750 ti happens to be a super early Maxwell card. Might be worth trying proton 7.0 to see if that makes a difference anyway, since that version uses DXVK 1.10.3.

It feels like most Lemmy/Kbin communities skew towards having a lot of CS people. Makes sense considering what kind of people would be interested in using the fediverse over traditional social media sites though.

I love all you fellow nerds <3

Navidrome's smart playlists can do some of this. You're basically building filters for songs to be added to a playlist automatically though, it's not as "smart" as Spotify.

I was a super early adopter of Jellyfin because Plex was going to shit. It’s amazing to see how much it’s grown in just a few years.

Ah, I didn’t think about iRacing. Yeah, that’s a super strong possibility.

They also own Studio 397 and rFactor 2, which has had its fair share of shitshows as well (before and after the acquisition).

The firm is also in talks with a "known company" for a potential sale of its NASCAR license.

I'm guessing it's Kylotonn. They just lost the WRC license and are nearing the end of Test Drive Solar Crown development. They need a franchise they can push out every year.

Another possibility is EA, because they love their yearly releases and have an abundance of racing game developers right now (Codemasters, Slightly Mad Studios, Evolution (or what's left of them), Criterion, Firemonkeys).

Yeah, something like "Update Promptness" does fit better now that you mention it. I wrote "frequency" and never thought about it until now.

If it weren't for Snaps, I would've had the warning and still recommended Ubuntu. It's been a couple months since I last used Ubuntu, so maybe this has improved, but the opening times for Snap applications is brutal. Firefox taking forever to load? Install Flatpak, add the Flathub repo, uninstall the Firefox Snap, install the Firefox Flatpak. I just can't call Ubuntu beginner friendly if they're pushing Snaps like this while refusing to support Flatpak out of the box.
