Yeah, I might actually play wow since I can reduce the XP scaling by a lot. It goes from 50 mobs at lvl 10 to 600+ to level up at lvl 60. I have a 7mo old no way I have time for that hahaha.

I use SQL for work so I can mod the DB easily to remove the exponential scaling in favor of linear scaling like mob XP scales.

You can mod the database for creatures to drop more xp, gold and loot from the looks of it.

Update, I downloaded the VMangos database. It looks like it might be possible to edit drop rates with creature_loot_template(ChanceOrQuestChance) and XP gain by using creature_template(xp_multiplier)

I haven't hosted anything yet but it could be tested by editing a Chicken's xp_multiplier from 0.0 to 1.0

I've been seriously turned off by the grind of WoW. Are you able to do something like reduce the XP level scaling or something so that every level is like 30m and improve drop rates?

Instead of a funded NHS people got austerity.

Nazis is a strong word for people trying to maintain order in the galaxy in the face of rising terrorist activities.

Pretty sure if you want to off yourself you'd do it differently

Just like anything else, it's worth what people are willing to pay for it vs what people are willing to buy it for.

Currently bitcoin is just a digital commodity with a finite supply which makes it a good store of value if people continue to use it.

The thing is, there's nothing preventing bitcoin from tanking and becoming essentially worthless besides people buying it because the price is low.

If in a hypothetical future the bitcoin price becomes stable then it will become a valuable commodity. It's value is wholly derived from it's users and nothing else.

It's not very convinent for governments or large institutions to hold it in it's current form since it's too easy to steal without leaving a trace. For government use there is going to be needed some development to allow for government or Central banks to have complete control over the currency without giving that control away which I think might be possible. In that case settling international transactions in bitcoin as opposed to the dollar for BRICS countries might be an option which doesn't use the US dollar.

All the other uses IMO are pretty much fluff such as paying in bitcoin.

If you're a land mammal reading this you're a land based fish

One alternative is that it only applies to companies that are listed as gatekeepers in the EU make it only hit megacorps

That sounds like an article that starts with a heading "What is flossing?" and ends with "We don't know because it's private"

It's a flatpak://url that opens the app store on the computer where you do a one click install. So technically it's two clicks.

I think he's referencing the flathub install button where you can just hit install.

Snap is not all bad if you're on a Ubuntu based distro, I just don't like the way it's pushed and that it comes from Ubuntu mostly. Startup time is a major issue for me also, but all in all it works.

I'm still sitting on the fence, heavily prefer flatpak but when Ubuntu is going to package nvidia drivers in a snap it's a thing I'm up for trying.

My understanding is that if I'm on Ubuntu and the snap uses the same underlying Ubuntu version as my distro it should be fast but I haven't seen it.

I had this issue for a while but about a decade ago I stumbled upon someone who said "every thing should have it's own home, and you put that thing where it lives" and it becomes somehow a lot easier.

Living with other people throws a spanner in the works but at least the thing is there much more often.

Vote for Ed Davie if you get the chance.

I like my stuff hidden anyway so I don't care all to much. I disable leds usually because they are distracting but keep one solid led to indicate whether the system is on or not.

I mean, if they insist on everything being in Dutch then at least include a flag. If you're going this deep on the UK obviously having the list in the native language is preferable.

The reason for the list above being all in Dutch might be because it's a list of countries, not a list of languages. (I speak some Dutch)

They're going to hiss at me aren't they?
